provided in case of violation of other sections of this article,
and shall be liable to the same forfeiture and penalties.
21. Any person against whom a justice of the peace may
render a judgment under this article, either to pay a penalty or
of condemnation of property, may appeal from such judgment
in the same manner as if the judgment were for a common debt,
but no execution or sale shall be stayed, unless the party ap-
pealing, shall give bond to the State of Maryland, in double the
value of the property condemned, or of the fine imposed, as the
case may be, with security to be approved by the justice of the
peace rendering the judgment, or by the clerk of the court to
which the appeal may be taken, with conditions to prosecute
such appeal with effect, and to pay the value of the property
condemned, and the amount of the fine imposed and interest,
and all costs attending such proceedings, in case such judgment
shall be confirmed.
22. When any offence is committed under any of the pro-
visions of this article, (except under the nineteenth section, )
any justice of the peace or the Circuit Court, as the case may
be, of the county to which the person offending, or the vessel
engaged in violating such provisions, may be taken after being
arrested or seized, shall have jurisdiction of such offence, when
offence under the nineteenth section of this article shall be
committed, if the same be committed within the limits of any
county, any justice of the peace, or the Circuit Court of such
county shall have jurisdiction of such offence: or, if the same
be committed within the waters of this State, but not within the
limits of any county, then any justice of the peace or Circuit
Court, (as the case may be, ) of any county lying opposite and
most convenient of access from the place where the offence is
committed, shall have jurisdiction thereof; and all proceedings,
whether before a justice of the peace or before the Circuit Court,
shall be in the name of the State; and if the party accused be
acquitted, the Comptroller of the State shall pay the costs out of
the fund created by this article.
