NOTORIETY H. PODGE. Titles repetn in Corpore

This effect of one of these never ending Titles which we had reason to consider in the preceding chapter is particularly
beautiful delightful when set like as a gem in
the middle of a sentence in [the body of] another
Act: as other example let this instead of a multitude for
on example 7.G.3.44. S.10.
"And whereas" &c "for remedy thereof" & so forth

The coach drivers are here relieved from the drudgery of
attending to that their matters of dry business by
an amusing miscellany relative to Vellum Parchment
Papers, Rock Salt Cards & besides having their

& thus without the expense of any extra Lanterns
By these means they cannot choose but like in all this

this Section & a few following make a part, with what remainder
they have just as much business as with their

In all their ex citation is thought to be expressly performed with sufficient if the discourse could be sufficiently distinguished from every other

to them without troubling themselves about the
rest as children would pick plums out of the
Physic that was seated amongst them: by this
means thus they are obliged to be learning take the will or no, as children take in
Plumbs & all, where the Rhubarb is just in

By the ingenious device which D. Bacon, when he wrote
his treatise if the advancement of learning, never thought of,

NOTORIETY H - PODGE more so than the Titles import.

Another misfortune is that many respecting many of these
Acts is that they announce perhaps not but these half
of what they contain: not even so much as in a manner
the most distant & most general; or rather to speak
more freely that they contain so much more
than they announce. And this at the same
time that by the show made is of particularization,
in the Title, they are calculated to
deceive men into an opinion that nothing of its adequacy
im to the contents.

Thus for instance the 9th G.1.8. is entitled
An Act for continuing some Laws, &
others therein mentioned &c.
+ 6A 6. 97. W.3.4 The first+ of which it takes notice 9 upon Jews being an Act to exempt Apothecaries from serving onerous <add>certain officers</add> it does
not barely but makes perpetual
containing other provisions partially relating to Jurors
4 Gos Will 24 The two next II it continues
3 Gc. Ann.18 A 4th# relates to the Navy it revives and makes perpetual
H G.7 Stat. 25 & Ch A 5th # relating to the same subject it neither continues nor perpetuates
9# + co Wz - 41 nor but adds to & explains.

[A] Tho the attend is since expired, what becomes of the Alterations? of A 7thII relating to the Customs it picks and
several scatter'd clauses to contain them
An 8th # which relates to the manufacture

11 5.G.1.11 Thus again there is an Act H entitled "An
Act to prevent the Clandestine running of
~ s. G1.15. " Goods and the danger of infection thereby8;
H 8.G.1. 18. " to prevent Ships breaking their Quarantine
" & to subject lesser one of the producers & of
"the British Plantations to such regulations
as other enumerated Commoddities
"of the like production are subject"
This Act after the provisions regulations on the subject
of the Plague contains a vanity of Provisions
relating to the which have no relation
whatever to the Plague.
