They will knock down a decrepit old man, rob, and maltreat him as soon as they will attack and rob younger people, and in the same way a woman's grey hairs and helplessness will not protect her. These larrikins are the scum of Melbourne and Sydney, and nothing but the use of the lash will effectually get rid of them, just as garotting was suppressed in Melbourne by the exemplary sentences passed upon the garotting fraternity by Mr. Justice Williams some time ago. These larrikins hound to- gethe...r in what are called " pushes, " and terrorize whole neighbourhoods by their acts of violence upon old and )Oung. Larrikinism has been allowed to get a firmer hold than it could ever have obtained if the magistracy had done its duty at the commencement of the organisa- tion, and inflicted salutary punishments when cases were / i68 AUSTRALASIA OLD AND NEW brought before them in the courts by the poh'ce.
