Mr Fitziierbert appeared for die Crown, and asked that the former information should be withdrawn, and he now proposed to charge the defendants in couples, namely, Jessop and Peck, Malcolm and Flyger, and Charles and George Peck. Mr" Shaw (for the Peck Brothers), Mr Hawkin (for Jessop and Peck), and Mr Evans (for Malcolm) objected, on the ground that the course of continuing to lay fresh information was irregular, and at present no defendants were before the Court. Unless they voluntarily surrendered to their informations, the cases could not be proceeded with.
