As admirable opportunity has alforded to the Colonial Governme effectually impress upon the C raind the illegality of bribery, by conviction of Ex-Inspector Law So long as the European police of to be the only person metable to j in cases of this nature, so long will found next to impossible to pu bribery in fact, if not in law, scarcely be wondered at that men l the position and salaries of Inspect Colonial Police should be occnsid found unable to resist the very temptations to which they are expe this way; and, without in any d excusing the prisoner in this cas cannot but admit that there are ex ating circumstances to be found i report of the trial now bofore us. learned Chief Justice did not eer overstate the evils of such a pract his address to the prisoner, and e designated the reception of brib evade the law as "crime" By evil lies not merely with the overto police officer. Those who ofter brib illegal purposes are morally as gui those who receive them, though t must necessarily take greater cogn of offences committed by the gra of the public peace, and mea ewe uphold the law, than by those w most render it but an unwilling ` ence. It is to this latter class th effectual warning might now be g though the punishment of thosa offered the bribe to Inspector Law would have given udditional poi any proclamation on the subject. however,
would presume, inoxpedient. But there is no reason for not enforcing any ties which may exist, or against fo an ordinance which would meet an fecks in the existing law. In no ye the world is it so necessary to bribery with a strong hand as ir --and it may be added in no part d world is it more dificult. Much however bo gained by placing the bri the power of the bribee. As the a at all events custom) at present s the converse only stands good, a sooner an alteration takes place the ter for the ends of justice.
