upon examination of the various cases so reported to him by
the Warden of the Jail as aforesaid, he shall discharge or re-
commit the said parties for a term not to exceed six months,
as in his discretion may be most conducive to the preservation
of public peace and order. The Justices of the Peace of the City
of Baltimore are prohibited from charging costs in the cases
above named, unless the parties are recommitted by order of
the Judge of said Court.

142. When any person arrested in the City of Baltimore

keep the peace, or shall be committed to jail or the House of
Correction in default of such security, such person shall be
chargeable with and shall pay all the costs prescribed by the
laws of this State for such arrest, commitment, or giving security
to keep the peace, and in default of the payment thereof shall be
committed to jail until such costs and the costs of his release
