For every such offence.
By the 46th clause, persons fixing iron collars, weights, or chains, on any slaves, shall be prose- cuted at the Grand Sessions, and be subject to fine and imprisonment.
The Act from whence the foregoing clauses are taken, passed the Assembly the 8th of March, 1825, and the Council, the 18th; on the 25th of the same month, a member of Council gave notice that he should, at the next meeting, in- troduce a Bill for dispensing with all fines and payments, except office-fees... on manumission of slaves — for equalizing rights and privileges of all descriptions of free coloured persons — for legaliz- ing the testimony of slaves, under certain re- strictions — for abolishing the Sunday market, and for encouraging the marriage of slaves. A Bill for these purposes subsequently passed the Coun- cil, as a Supplemental Bill to the Consolidated Slave Act, but was rejected by the House of As- sembly, on the plea that it ought not to originate with the Council, being considered as a Money Bill.
