In the second seizure, lAolb. weight of tobacco was found, all adulterated, though the adulteration varied from one to ten per cent. In each case, the tine inflicted was rd., but the real offence all cheating her Majesty's exchequer, and not that of cheating her Majesty's lieges. The compound might have been considered pure ' weed," whether adulterated or nut. A man who supplied one of the defendants with the rhubarb leaves was fined 50&, as it was nonsidered he was a participator in the fraud on the revenue.  • SHOCK IND BITICIDEi; ST.
