DERBY " SWEEPS." —On Saturday the appeal of
William Willis, the proprietor of the King's Head public-
house, in Newgate-street, London, was heard against the
game,tn lottery,
be
played o
and
ds w
conviction by Sir Peter Laurie and Alderman Wilson, of
stake,
the 23d of June, for having unlawfully and knowingly
suffered certain gaming to be carried on in his house,
drawneep at
by lot, against the tenor of the license granted to him
called tahe "Derby
ce
rtain. unlawfulsweep
under the 9th of George IV. The appellant had been
fined £5 and costs. After a long discussion, the Recorder
of London gave his decision, and said it was impossible
not to see that the recital of the act of William 111.,
which so expressly denounced lotteries as mischievous
public nuisances, comprehended the present case. He
was bound to affirm the conviction. He approved of the
conduct of the appellant in questioning the validity of the
conviction, and in abandoning all idea of continuing the
sweeps in his house upon finding that they were illegal.
He supposed that after the present decision the practice
would cease everywhere. He certainly should not, as a
magistrate, sign the license of any man who should
henceforward permit sweeps to be drawn in his house.
That determination, be must be understood, would not
operate against any person who might have fallen into
the general error, provided there were no repetition of
the infringement of the act.
