he is to take them to a magistrate, and, when the warrant so directs, he must take the person also in whose possession they are found to avoid mistakes, the owner ought to attend at the search to identify the goods.

The constable has power to apprehend and carry before a justice of the peace, every common prostitute wandering in the public streets or public highways, or in any place of public resort, and behaving in a riotous or indecent manner.-Every person wandering abroad or placing himself, or herself, in any public street or highway, court, or passage, to beg or gather alms, or causing, or procuring, or encouraging any child so to do, all such being declared by the law to be idle and disorderly persons.

Every person wandering abroad and lodging in any barn or outhouse, or in any deserted or unoccupied building, or in the open air, or under a tent or in any cart or waggon, not having any visible means of subsistence, and not giving a good account of himself or herself.-Every person wandering abroad and endeavouring, by the exposure of wounds or deformities, to obtain or gather alms. Every person going about as a gatherer or collector of alms, or endeavouring to procure charitable contributions of any nature or kind, under any false or fraudulent pretence.-Every person playing or betting, in any street, road, highway, or other open or public place, at or with any table.or instrument of gaming, at any game or pretended game of chance.

In the cases just mentioned, the constable has, by law, power to arrest. Special directions will be given for his guidance by his officers, in the foregoing and in similar cases.

[If any carter, drayman, carman, waggoner, or other driver, shall ride upon his cart, dray, car, or waggon, in London, or within ten miles thereof, not having some other person on foot, to guide the same, he may be stopped, apprehended, and carried before a magistrate as soon as may be convenient.] If the driver of any carriage shall, by negligence or wilful misbehaviour, interrupt the free passage of his Majesty's subjects, he may be apprehended and conveyed before a justice. Also, if the coachman, guard, or other person having the care of any coach, or other carriage, shall by intoxication, or wanton or furious driving, or any other wilful misconduct on the public highway, injure or endanger any person, he may be apprehended.

[It is lawful for any man belonging to the police force, during the time of his being on duty, to apprehend all loose, idle, and disorderly persons, whom he shall find disturbing the public peace, or whom he shall have just cause to suspect of any evil designs, and all persons whom he shall find, between sunset and the hour of eight o'clock in the forenoon, lying in any highway, yard, or other place, or loitering therein, and not giving a satisfactory account of themselves, and to deliver any person so apprehended into the custody of the constable appointed under this act who shall be in attendance at the nearest watchhouse, in order that such person may be secured until he can be brought before a justice of the peace, to be dealt with according to law; or may give bail for his appearance before a justice of the peace, if the constable shall deem it prudent to take bail.]

[No shop, room, or place for the sale of ready-made coffee, tea, or other liquors, shall be kept open after 11 o'clock at night, during any part of the year; nor opened before four in the morning between Lady-day and Michaelmas, or before six in the morning between Michaelmas and Lady-day.]

[If any such are open, or, being shut, if any person during the said hours shall be found therein, except the persons dwelling there, or having lawful excuse for being there, master, mistress, waiter, or other person having care or management of such shop, &c., the constable should make complaint, next day, to the sitting magistrate.]

[Any one blowing any horn, or using any noisy instrument in the streets,

for the purpose of hawking, selling, or distributing any articles whatsoever, may be apprehended.]

The following cases are cases of nuisance; in which it is desirable that the constable should only ascertain the party offending, and take the means of finding him afterwards, and report the case to the superior officer, when directions will be given him for his further guidance.

[If any person in any public street or place beats or dusts carpets, or drives any carriage for the purpose of breaking, exercising or trying horses; or shall ride any horse for the purpose of trying or showing it for sale, in such a manner as to cause danger, or great annoyance to passengers; or throws any ashes, dirt, rubbish, dung, or any filth upon the carriage or footway; or shall slaughter or cut up any beast, swine, or sheep, so near any public street that any blood or filth shall flow upon the parement; or rolls or drives upon the footway of any street any waggon, cart, or other carriage, or wheel a wheel barrow or truck, or any cask or barrel, or rides or drives any horse or other beast upon any of the footways; the constable may apprehend the party and take him before a magistrate'; but if he know the party, or can discover his residence, it will be better that the constable should lodge his complaint with a magistrate, who will then issue a summons for the party to appear.]

[If any person slack or sift lime in the streets, unless he can show the consent of the Commissioners of the Pavements for so doing, complaint may be made to a magistrate.]

[If entrances to coal-holes and cellars are not properly secured, so as to prevent danger to passengers, complaint should likewise be made.]

[If any scavenger or any person sweeps or places the mud, dirt, or rubbish, in any of the drains or sewers, complaint may be made in the same way.]

[During or after a fall of snow, or any frost, if the occupier of any house or building do not once in every day, except Sunday, before the hour of ten o'clock in the forenoon, sweep and cleanse the foot-way along the front or sides of their premises, complaint is to be made.]

[Any person carrying in any cart through the street soap lees, night soil, slop, or filth, without having a proper covering to prevent the same from spilling into the streets, or driving any cart with such soap lees, &c., through the streets at any time between the hours of six o'clock in the morning and eight in the evening, may be taken into custody at the time, or they may be summoned afterwards before a magistrate.]

[If any person empty any bog-house, or take away any night soil from any house in the streets, except between the hours of twelve o'clock in the night and five in the morning, from Lady-day to Michaelmas, or before six o'clock from Michaelmas to Lady-day, or if any person shall put any night-soil in or near any of the public streets, the constable should apprehend them immediately, and keep them in confinement till they can be conveniently carried before a magistrate, and may take their horses, carts, &c., to some place of security, to be kept till the decision of the matter.]
