U . '4'. , - or. l l rip ~~ end that it became necessary to take strong steps. — The cases then stood on testimony not to be doubted. The explosion occurred in Derbyshire, but it was evidently also attempted at . Nottingham. But these were only branches of an extensive confederacy, which was prevented in some other places by the sp. prehension of individuals. Ile had heard it had been said, that tine criminals at Derby had been in. Migited by Spies and informers ; . hut he one satisfied that such was not the fact. The plot would have gone on without Spies and Informers • and. kid to ctiminatezplosion, instead of breakkug out partially. Something of the kind - occurred• but a day before at 31tudderefield, -Nothing in the Derby trials had hap. Paned toshow that the manw he was so often named occasioned the offences. Oliver had been brought to•Derhy, not as a witness, hut to be exhibited, that it' might be seen whether any of toe parties concern ed could reoeguite Orb man as an instgator, or any ways eonnected with the events which took place ; bet they all disclaimed having any knowledge of him. • This Vag the first opportUnity he had of stating the fact ; and he found it necessary to make this state. smut to meet theiejarious cslumnies which had been eirceteted respecting this italiaidual. it had been eald . that there Mere no ,ground e fur the mealtimes which had been adopted, because it had not been ao much as alleged= that any individuals in the higher tanks of life bad given any countenance to the svirit of disaffection which prevailed. But whether such a "kit prevailed *moil the higher or lower ranks of society, it was equally the duty of his Majesty's Ministers to cheek its progress, and they would have been equally culpable, had they overlooked its ten. elency. That great ,pains had been taken to destroy Ind undermine the principles of religion and virtue among the lower orders, he was persuaded no think. log man would deny. The obvious tendency of the blasphemous productions which had . been hawked about with so much industry, was to demoralize the lower classes of the People ; and to eradicate every principle of religion from their minds. it had been alleged that these publications had been subsequently suppressed so effectually, that a copy could not tie bad for any consideration ; but this was so far from being the case, thut they were seen in every shop-window ; they were hawked about with trench industry and perseverance; and when, at last, they stopped from selling them, from apprehension of the comer; uetives, they were handed about, not by the way of sale, but gift. When it appeared, therefore, that such great pains bad been take() to demoralise the lower orders, end to incite them to insurrection; when it appeared that a conspiracy had been ((awed ft r this purpose, was it nut the bounden duly of the Secretary of State, as guardian of the public peace, to endeavour to detect the plans of the disaffected ; trey, would he not have been guilty of a great dere liction of duty had he failed to do so? The seizing of the papers of those who were suspected of such de , -igns was right and proper, in order to prevent co n spiracy and to pr ocure information. Another seizure which , took place was the seizure of arms. If it shoold appear that those who were possessed of them had no intention athatr.ver to use them for trai. tarot's panllises, then the measures taken were all wrong ; but if otherwise, they were bound to seize 4h' arms •as a measure of prevention. There was a - Petition laid on their table by au individual of the name of Francis %Yard. This. Petition stated among • ether things, drat Police-ollicers entered his house to search for arms. But the House would do well to recollect that rills took place on the 10th of June, at break or day; *hen the conspirators, who bail assembled at D. , rity on the night of the fish of J one, were supposed to be on their march to N o ttingham. At that critical moment, when many had assembled in a body in the neighbous hood of the town, fur the purpose of meeting the Derby conspirator., was it not the duty of the Magisttetes to search the houses If -those who were suspected of coospiritig, lest they should have presided mean. for arming themselves and those that joined them ? Without taking such steps; under such circumstances, it is evident that. the Magistrates would not huaerhsee their duty. In ordering that the leaders' houses should be searched, to see if any arms could be discovered, they did no thing, more then was neer:gory for the preservation of the politic peace; anrt basing acted (Oily and con seentiously, they 'horrid be indemnified. For acting thus for the public good, though the seizure of arms . . end papers . might not be strictly legal, yet they were as well entitled, to protection es if their actions were justified by ',Another ground that rendered the Bill necessary was, that it wes extremely proper that Ministers should not disclose the mean, of kl{ilw ledge which they had gained., Though he should, therefore, denrecete Rey encouragement to information which might proceed from malice,.yet, unless such protection should he given to prevent the sources taint/moo tion from being disclosed, treasonable conspiracies might proceed to the most dangerous length with angrily, for men would not give evidence at the -listard of exposure with all its . couseqoences : there would thus be no means .to prevent future conspiracy, or to provide • for the public safety.— In consequence of the measures which had been adopted, and the gradual improvement in the circum stauces of the country, men's minds were recovering from the fate into which they bad been thrown, but it would still require all the vigilatuts and activity of the Magistracy to prevent attempts which at that moment appeared to be going on. .Largs bodies of men were bestirring themselves in every direction to petition for Reform,. when they intended to procure revolution. He would aritalt that honourable men might think otherwise of these matters, and consider itoiorm as necessary. But .let them beware, let them consider what may be the object of men who come forward as it were witha Petition in one hand, and a sword in the other.—(Grier of 40, no! from the Opposition.)—They insisted wpm% Reform as their constitutional right; bet there could be no doubt that Reform extending to Universal Suffrage and Annual ,Parliarnents was, bet another name for recto_ , lotion. By the meant vehicb ball been adopted the spirit of disaffection theft been retmesied fora time; but if the meatia should be diacloaed by ,which in formation had heels {merited, we.roold have, oo se - twity ihstwer against the return of sach,scenes and ';transactions as had lately occurred at Dorby, to , Loather with every thief; dangtmotts 4o society, and , tevoitiog to human nature. In dispersing such meet. Jogs as those of the illanketeers, the Magistrates acted aid/ prrprr discretion; such meetip t ss -aeces- a few words on what It, tbeaaht 'heel& in justice precede the. dissuasion of the Bill-he meant the con. duct of Ministers. They were required itnplicitly pass the Big its question,. without enquiring into the disgusting measures whjch, bad been pursued during. the last year; without extrirririag into acts of tyran ny, oppression, and cruelty, more disgraceful and odious than the Bastile ever saw. They were desired to overlook every consideration of the manner in which Ministers had used the powers instructed to I them, and to grant them an Indemnity Bill as a net ! icessary accompaniofent of the Suspension. They asked these measoles upon their responsibility, as spring the House that they. worth( pot atokao„their powers. They armed them with • 'harp and dan-. geronsioittutnent, and they were not sperincie the use of i‘ Yet, lately, when facts were' submitted' to that Rouse that implicated the Secretary of in charges ef cruelty and seventy, which seem ...rimee with the Noble Lord's general character fee humanity, enquiry was refused upon the.most louspletence. Lest year his Majesty's Ministers came down to that lintise armed with a green bag.— This they laid hefore.a Committee of their own selec. tin's, and got themselves constituted at once judges, jury,and w itnesses.The teport of this body so constitut ed, endeavoured to (nullify the mad attempts of a bankrupt apothecary and a starving cobbler, into Re bellion and iligh Treason. When this cameto be in. vestigatedln a Court of 4,ustice, it turned out on evidence that the prime agent in the mischief was a Government Spy ; and an honest Jury acquitted the prisoners of the csime' laid to their charge, though means had been cord to influence their. minds, which showed that conviction Will the object more than the, investigation of truth. The Habeas Corpus Act was , newer suspended before on such grounds. Even in the year. when danger was most imminent, when the reigning dynasty , seemed in the utmost hazard from foreign power and domestic treason end reltellion ; • yet esen in these circumstances, which might be deem. rd a very strong case, the Susnennon was not passed without much oppositivn, and wi'h strong protests and remonstrances. Last year, when the attention of the People had began to he steadily geed in the measures of Ministts, when they could no longer be diverted from expositig the ay stem on which they acted, and the profusion with which they dissipated the resources of the country in jobs and sinecures, they all at once bid recourse to their last refuge, and bethought them of gagging the mouths of the People in order to stints the call for economy and retrench. meat, which threatened to deprive them of their best support--the meets; of providing for their friends and adherents, like the execrable Robespierre, who, when he found his power become odious, and his intentions .uspeCted, sacrificed all his opponents as the victims of his ambition. This man, however, attacked the high and the powerful: but our Ministers ditected air attempts chiefly against the poor and the starving manuf4cturers.— MnA men would have felt remorse at the sight of a country so reduced, a People pilfering the inmost privations, hut still loyal in their annehuseat. :nal looking up to that House for redress of all their wrougs.

This arch-cps hurried along from county . to tritely, displislingthe standard Of rebellion, and ex citing no: aid insurrection. Whereat r his'steps could be traced, i and they were traced a jilt equal care mid necsitacy by his Him. Friend (Mr. Bennett), there it was timid that he had been pro. caking to tohlwr s , and miireer. tiotheppily he provoked inane. instance not in vain. Ile was found - et length returning to resider an account of his perils and his success. He could have rendered his account in the words whirls a great Poet ascribes to a per sonage. the base and more malignant parts of whose character Mr. Oliver str.kaio resembled, This Spy appeared At last, as from a cloud, _ load was the acclaim: Forth rush'il in haste the g r e at consulting peers, Rais'd front their dark divan, and w ith like joy Congratulant npproa, led him; who. with hand Silence, and with these words attention, v on, • ----- bong were to tell What I have done, what spurred: with what pain V/1 wed the unreal, vast, unbounded deep Of hot tilde confusion; over which. tit Sin and Death, Al broad way now is pav'd Tn expedite your glorious march.

This rebellion terminated by the esectrtiost of the Earl of Derweutwater. Was it not natural and reasettable to call Cur t indemoity to those who, its such circumstances, had exceeded their ordinary ! powers? Yet indemnity bad not been then required for those who had advised and•plantted measures, but for the Magistrates who, in consequence of proceed. logs in their districts, had felt themselves bound to assume extrwordinary powers. flow different, there. fore, was thst case from the present ? The indem nity of 1746 extend'ed only to acts done during the rebellion of 1145.• 113'1780, the indemnity had Pa tended only to the Ntlgistrates who had acted during the riots which took place at that time. There was a suspension of the Habeas Corpus in that year; but the House would recollect that it applied only to North America, end had un connexion with the Aci of Indemnity to Magistrates. In 1801, "hen, was the only precedent to he found for this measure. Of this precedent it might he sufficient to say, that it was the act of the same Ministers w ho now called for this Act ; that it was a precedent created by those who had been but to ready to imitate it. But in the circumstances of danger, in the prevalence of alarm, in the characters suspected, In eeverpuiut in which: they ertic' he compared, the precedent of 11301 was widely different from the Act now proposed. There was, in fact, no precedent to he found for it le the Li•aory of this tiountry.-- . -[//eat, keaff]—Bat if there was one part of this Act more objectionable than another,' it was the time at which it was to begin. It was to throw back its protection over all transectiona In the 516th of January, 1811 1 . 11 * Ministers felt it necessary to call for indemnity. they owed it to their character and credit to call for an Act cn.extensise with the suspension of the Habeas Corpus. Instead of this, they came t• that nouse to he indemnified for having im pistoled persona previously to the Suspension Art, end Whose they discharged without trial. It was of importance, too, to consider the list of persons com. mitred under the Suspension Act, on which, he ints. posed, Ministers relied for their jestificatioo. Its the printed Return laid on the table there were cle persons who had beet, arrested. Of those, 51, had been apprehended by wayrent of the Secretary - of State, or of the Privy Council; the remainder hid been apprehended on the warrant sof the Magistrates of 'Derby and 'Nottingham. Of the 51 arrested by warrant of the Secretary of State, not one was brought to trial. They would perhaps be told that this was a proof of the fenient and mild manner in which Ministers had esercised their power. To' hill it eppeared a strong proof of the frivolous and weak evidence on which they had proceeded, otherwke could' they haverefrained from 'wilting Islam*, of the objects of such serious sioipiciotis?
