(1) Page 1 Title
The objects that appear to have been aimed at
in the framing of Titles to Bills appear are —
by the giving a tras whereby, when passed into a Law, the Act as may be distinguished
when referred to from other Acts. and referred to in succeeding Acts. when passed out into Law

2. The affording a general indication of the contents,
to avoid the inconvenience that has some times
been observed to result, where a clause provision being buried
amongst amidst ina quantity of matter to which it bears
little or no relation, the very existence of a provision
to that effect may become come to be forgotten and
unknown, and even where the existence of it is known to a man may
not know where to find it: 3. to operate in recommendation
of the Bill, by the indication of the species
of utility expected to result from it.

For the first of these purposes, the first part words
alone of the shortest of the two titles here proposed
would be sufficient; "An act for the establishment
of a System of Police would be sufficient for the second, it may
perhaps be thought fit to add the other part, viz:
" and for the suppression of divers officers': especially
as the indication of this part of the business
of the Act may be attended in some degree with
the other effect of contributing to recommending the bill to the favour
of the House.
