Bentham says the word police is derived from the Greek and was imported into Eng- land from France, and that the idea belonging to it is too multifarious to be susceptible of any defini- tion; but he also classes the term as a division of criminal justice, yet includes in it regulations against selling poisons, for shutting inns at a certain hour at night, for exercising the professions of ...law and medicine only after passing certain examina- tions, as well as systems of espionage.

In the early English Keports, there are in- stances of the exercise of the police power, as now interpreted, but that phrase is not employed. For example, the judges of the King's Bench speak of in- juries sustained by individuals for the accommoda- tion or protection of the public, under acts of parlia- ment, such as relate to laying out turnpikes, pulling down houses for public defense, etc.
