In proposition too as crimes can be prevented and criminal
Dealers Kept in check in the same degree will the expenses of the Treasury
and the various Public Boards for criminal prosecutions be diminished
These expenses amount to a large Sum annually without appearing without
appearing among the disbursements immediately connected with the Police
Establishment.

It is by the prevention of Crimes therefore in the first instance
and an improved System with respect to the employment of Convicts
that the expences of the Police are to be diminished. The ramifications are
however various and may be summed up under the following specifications.

1. The Institution of a Board of Police Revenue or Center point of Action

2. By passing a Bill which has been proposed for some Years for regulating
the various Classes of Dealers who have already been specified.

3 By passing another Bill which has been some Months under the
Consideration of the Attorney and Solicitor General and which
drawn up with the assistance of the most experienced Counsel in
that Branch of Criminal Jurisprudence for improving the
Mint Laws and for defeating the various Tricks and Devices to which
the numerous hordes of Coiners and utterers of Base Money resort for the
purpose of eluding Justice, by this measure the Finances of the Country
would be considerably improved in as much as upwards of
£2000 a Year is disbursed for Mint Prosecutions without lessening
the evils nor can it be expected until the Bill in Question Shall
pass into a Law.

4 By improving the Laws with respect to the receivers of Stolen Goods
of every denomination & to make the offence of receiving Money Bank
Notes Horses Cattle Poultry or any other property the same
as Goods &c

5. By empowering Superior and Inferior Magistrates by small
rewards to encourage Officers of Justice who have rendered meritorious
Services to the Public whether the Offence may be of
a Superior or inferior Class in point of enormity or whether
there is a Conviction or not.
