PAPERS RELATING TO

407

hensions in cach year from 1869 to 1872, and especially the great increase in 1872 over 1871, we are inclined to attribute this partly to the increased strength of the police force, and its improvement in intelligence and organization, and partly to the introduction of new Ordinances prohibiting street cries and certain other nuisances which have considerably swelled the number of cases of a petty character; whilst the crimes of a more serious nature, as the return of committals for trial in the Supreme Court show, have greatly diminished.

We have, &c., (Signed) C. MAY,

1st Police Magistrate. A. W. MITCHELL,
