MINUTES OF THE CGLLEGE. 
171 
amount of penalties recovered exceedingly trifling. The 
expenses incurred by the Society, in actions and indictments 
against persons for offences under the act of 1815, to the 17th 
March 1834, was ^66,971 15s. Sd., the penalties recovered 
^170, and the costs recovered ^763 9s., leaving the Society 
a looser by its prosecutions of the sum of 5^5,837 16s. 8d. 
It is a remarkable fact, lhatno quacks have been prosecuted, 
as far as we can ascertain. The witnesses in general assert 
that it is the most ignorant who are selected for prosecution, but 
the searching examination of the chairman of the committee, 
soon brings them to admit, that successful practice is most fre- 
quently the test by which they are guided, in visiting offenders 
with the penalties of the act.
