It appeared that a person of t'ze ”3:r: of Harlow., had been materially connected w'tla tv.o:e parr:, but In cot:sequence of a dispute which he 1.11 with po: ~ il'aison, he milled the Society b. fore any of tbo.e ohj -cts had h:eii accomplished His place in the Committee was to be supplied by Castle, and the remaisiing members were else two Watson,, 2reston, Rover. end Thistlewood. In the c-inv:iaation which they held respecting the means of carrylog I their plans into effect, it was stated that thsy tight re'y on get-1 ting over a great pan of the foot soldiers to join them ; but shat they could place tits dependetice on the cavalry. For his part he did not believe that they hail the slightest foundation for any hope of the kind ; for, although there might be some unprinci pled_ and wicked m en anion all classes of society, he moll never littlish that any consid e rabl e num b er o f th e military would be so I criminally forgetful of their ditty, as to tern the c arins,,ln cora bination with :robots, against thee- King and country. It Was, however, a part of the plan that the cavalry, on which ro depen deuce could he placed, was to he attacked. 'They were to begin with the cavalry barracks in Porde:M.o4re, and these barracks were to be burnt. Watson being. in consequence of his proles• stun, skilled in chemistry, and well acquainted with the qualities I of combustible materials, was desired to make a calculi:don re specting the quantity of matetisis that might be necessary, and the expense of them ; and it was then stated, that these combos. tildes would not merely bunt the barracks, but destroy the sol diers, by stifling diem before they could leave their rooms. The only question of difficulty was, how the combustibles could be db• posed of, until the time came for using them, This difficulty was soon removed; it was agreed that a house should he taken con. I tiguous to the spot, on pr e tence of conveni n g It into an oil shop, to which barrels of tar, pitch, and other combustibles night be I conveyed without so ipicion. They found out a house In Sey- Mour-street They repaired to the owner, a respectable Gen. I thitran of the name of Coster, residing in Milbank street, West. I minster, who had no notion of the use to which the house, was to be convened, and who Was referred t 6 Thistlewood, in South- I amptombuildings, for the character of the person who was to . take the house. Mr. Cosser went to make Inquiry respecting this reference, anti when he found that Thistlewood was ooly a lodger, he would not let the house to the parties; and for that reason only it was not taken, and the ocher scheme was abandoned-- The panics then baying given up the plan of the house, agreed to have a number of pike-heads made ;—airtl Castle was appointed to go to a person from whom he could obtain a pattern of a pike-bead. He was desired to say to the per son that It was wanted to form part of an Iron fence, which was to inclose a rabbit warren; the name of the person was Bentley. He had nomapicion as to the object the parties had In view, and he gave a pattern of one of those lostruntents,wbbh he supposed was intended to form part of a 'fence. When this should be pi aimed in Court, it world be found to be a terrible instrument of death, and even of war. An order was' then given for 250 pikes. to be made exactly resenthfing the pattern in question . they were made at Bentley's work-shop, and taken away by young Watson and Castle, and carried by them to Watson's lodging to Hyde -street. Castle did not afterwards know what became of those pikes, but a most extraordinary dreum , tance respecting them would be shewn in evidence, by wokh it "meld appear, that after Watson bad left his lodgiogs In Hyde-street, a privy belonging to the house was searched and emptied, and In it were found 199 pikes, exactly resembling those which Bent ley had been ordered to make. It Is not necessary for me to enter into a minute detail in turther explanation regarding these pikes, or pike heads, but 1 now come to a most important fact. Something like at: organization was agreed upon. and the pri soner, with others. whom you have heard banned, were each appointed to their respective °dices. Thiniewsed was to have the matlnaod; Watson, sen. was to be snood; Hooper third; Castle - fourth: , Watson,jun. was to be fifth; and Preston, who was late, bad the last poet assigned him. It was agreed upon at a. Moeda& held by these parties, on the 10th of November, that an lawmen= should take plies on the drat assembly It Epafields. This. however, was abandoned; and it was merely deterautted upon to congregate the people togs: her, for Ike per pose of dimusatog the state of the times. and seeking a redress of grievances. Abort due time there were placards and advertise. meats issued, isetying that there bad been adopted a " Com mittee of Public Safety:" To this anuouncemoot there ware attacheduttais name% bat in judge to the isodividuals mentioned, I =tat cectare my MU cmscioustiss i that they did not even knew they had ever been men/limed- Tat mark how extraordinary it was—when the _ruiner WAN& was • apprehended on the night of the '241 of Deceniber, a paper was found ic his posikot, whiehloyeroac• e is e o n air, a li s t . of this 1 .

'floe Jury being observed at this part of the case to be taking notes, Mr. Wetherell rose, and it:gutted whether they were taking the statements of the Attorney Oenerato4 fame rural I Lord Ettasiatiatiocin.—" 1 catmint possibly suppose that they am titan metes In any other way than as i would de, by way of diestration, and that they have a right to de." Several of the Jury said, this was exactly the reason of their noting the statenr nt. • Mr. ATTORNEY Gine tam. resented : lam stating that which I am folly nr.trutted ur state, and it would he unworthy ludeed in use, it I attempted testate any, even the slightest thing, beyond what I was boolident I should. Deena:oh-duo prove. As I men tioned to You before, Gentlemen, the esistence of theCoinmattee of Public ;safety, I should nut have omitted to mention that some of the nasuits,of Moeller d members were changed, but this is of little Its Gigot, while it is of great importance shad the paper was actually fantod upon the prisoner. boon atter the transaction before alluded to, a Meeting was held, at which it was agreed that a Meeting was to rake place iu.Spatields, and that then an. insurrection should burst ow. Ibis, however, did not take place. for reasunewhich wall be proved by the witnesses I'M next feature of the conduct of the primmer and its eumpaolons was, the publimaion of an advents/soma, signed by one 14.111, and which was to have been published by Walton, or want other person of the party. It was addressed principally to distressed animus. Ottuufacturers, kc. and announced the intended Meet ing. Thus, in girder to effect a diebotcai puipese, a paper of apparently an innocent mature, was circulated fur the pliipows Ol imposing on the minds and feelings of the poorer clammed Ra dar, aid by subsequentiy Working on their passions, to make them the ready victims tat the gods the party hail planned to exe cute. Gentlemen, in the coarse of these proceedings the Meeting alluded to was called, but it was Mond necessary to have a leader, and in consequences Mr. Hunt, who lived ha the country, was applied to. I di) not believe, however, that the Teal purpose of the bleiting was made koown.te that Cientlentan, but that it was represented to be, as I beim/awl, the CAN of the distressed artszans and manufacturers of the inettepois. The NI eetius which will be described to you accordingly took place.

'lids was on the 15th of )November, and another Mettirg was proposed to take plate soon after the meeting of Paillasses*, which was to assemble in the month of Febtuary. This deli) was objected to by young Watson, who proposed that no longer adjournment should occur than 17 days, and that there should be a Meeting on the idol December. I his was agreed to; but I should bare Informed you that at the Mewing of the 16th of No. vtunber a flag was whirled by the paeans. on which were in scribed the fallnwieg weeds:" Nature )o kiddie heavy; Troth to protect the oppisteradt died= so pais!

King's death--and whether they did rat tontnire to levy war and compel the ring to change his measured But before I come to what occurred at Spi Fields on the 2d of December, I should observe, that on Saturday the 30th of November, It was agreed that different persons were to go to different parts ef the town, and a plan *as arranged by which particular divisions were marked out. name were to be at London &Mgt —same at one side of the Tower, and some at another. And heretl mint bring to your notice a most singular thing. as a decisive proof and confirmation of a plan of operations having been arranged. I have already told you, that when Mr. Watson, sen. was taken, on the night of the 2il of December, a paper, purporting to cantata the names of a Committee of Public Safety was found upon him. I will further chew you, that io ' pocket a'so was found a paper, which Is obviously and mani festly a sort of plan of Intended operations ; and from which it is clear that the 1 ower and the Batik were the principal object* of attack. 'The paper found in his packet was this:— " Smiths (meaning black-smith), Westminster-road, to form three dlvi ions, and collect as great a number as possible together, and meet the I.eisdon division at the London mad, and proceed to the Old Mine; Paddington, troprocted to St. Gies's.— aorrie cad° each street to Holborn Bars, and the approaches to T. B. (meaning Temble Bar).—haricado Chaticei y-aane seal Carey street. St. Olin', division to barricade as far as St, Andrew's, Holborn, to include Chancery-lane; 3d, fitay's-liin-lane; it h, lehn-street. and Old4treet; Sth, N'tuterbapel; 7th, Bank; Bth, Picket-street." • This paper thus enumerating points of eo-operation, was found in Mr. Watson's pocket oo the night of the ild of December, when he was t.teu is the attempt to quit London. Every divi sion was settled, and agreed upon au the Ist of December, at Greystoke-place. Ac Nast divisions very muck similar to those I have read. It will also appear, I think, that at this Meeting a map of London was produced, in order to exploits and facilitate the count of peoneding agreed upon to be pursued on Monday, the lid of December, which as you will observe, was convened in pursuance of the infammatory advertismtmt I have already read to you. m a t Meeting had been adjourned from the 15th of No venlber, and it was expected of course, that Mr. Hunt amulet tonne sad address the suembly, not as Chairman, but as one of the persons who was desirous of empreising his sentiments. Whether it was hi consequence of any thing which Mr. Hunt bad Old on the former occasion, that tots enpeptatlon was formed, I do not know, bat cer tainty he was expect e d ra conspitors, hiusever, thought it more advantageous for their purpthe that they should Innis their proceedings before Mr. Hunt none, anti they therefore began accordingly, with a eh is will appear, for the porpose of giving their pirtizans the hetes eery instructions before he should arrive: Ac this pfonnd its, Thistlywood, Preston, Hooper, and the two Wat son., took an Actin part; !Ile latter of whom wine the most coespiritous on '.aeoWa of fhenntiNfiligiftney lansniage arid tioduer.
