•Insvardly, tranquility reigns; indimtry, the arts, the public works pursue their course. " Exteriorly, Austria and our. other Allies show themselves affectionate and faithful. " Our forces; our theans, - our military resources are immense:. • •• - " Always at the moment.when the first erup 7 tion of those destructive volcanOs, fired .by Eng land, is going to break out under these thrones which wish to rest' independent of her politics, it is necessary to reunite propOrtionate resources, even superior to the dangers which prudencedis covers. " That which was yestertlay aufficient for the 4ecurity of Government, - ii to-dayfound to•bc de licient in foresight. New events have created new WatltS ; nnforeuien conjanctdres require iinexpect t , (l ;act ifrces. • " An universal sentiment of devotion and fide lity unites itself in the French people, to the feel iiigs of their interest, and their glory, to direct their conduct and determine their resolutions. " His Majesty purpoSes to you to put under the disposal of his - Minister at War a force mini ciently considerable to overcome all our enemies, to destroy all their hopes in all their suppositions, and you know it, illesSiefirs, reflection and his tory have taught it you, - that it is tinis we must repulse danger, that ,Success is guaranteed, that we iustire glory, and that we must prepare pence. The number of ►nen demanded by tl►e Minis ter at War are to be Aliivi►led into tl►ree classes '' 'rite first is to be composed of those cohorts, whose iviihes have' outstripped necessity, and who ktve solicited as n favour to exchange the duty of defending the frontiers of France for the ho nour of seeking the enemy on the other side of the Sienna. " The second class consists of a levy among those men, who, for Ming part of tho four I)lTc:ell iug conscilipticios, tire not comprised in the last, " This levy has for its object to keep bp in the interior, until the moment when they Will have acquired a greater strength, a more decided apti tude for the military service,- the " Third clao3„ . called by the &natio Cusultum; . would say the Conscription of 181,4. This is not to'beimmedintely united, the:Sti nkter at War will judge at. What Moment it will be snitable to cause them to march. " The eiforts of the Islandets, founders of the Continental war, spectator:, of a war without end, cause an imperious lOW to Entice of making her formidable armamet.ts. She has not forgotten her insolence of the victors under Louis XIV, nor-the disgraceful treaties under Louis XV..; neither will she forget the triumphs which have eff a ced those Immiliat ions, the necessity of preserving un tainted the glory she has acquired, the utility of preparing for new successes, the dignity of the crown, and the. honour of the nation and of the French arms.

In the name of the, country, I thank you for your attendance. It, has been a fro-4. painful one undoubt e dly, bit 1. hope and t uvt that what has been done here, will restore peace and comfort to this deluded county, and that those within these walls, and all in every part of the kingdom, to whom the account of what has passed here may come, will be induced to abstain from the cOnimission of such offences, and will he satisfied that lives of honest industry arc far preferable, considered even in a temporal view, to lives of rapine, • violence, and outrage against their neighbours, and to the assassination of ho nest and innocent individnals." The Jury immediately acquitted the prisoners. •• PARX..--- I .‘ My Lords, there - are still.remain ing in your calendar, seventeen persons, who stood capitally indicted for diderent : offences. Ijpon looking through a list of their cases, With all the:. ACCUaley in nay power, assisted by my learned friends, I discovered that three of the ringleaders In all these offences have already suffered.the pe nalty of. the law ; two others of those, who arc involved in sonic of these indictments, have also. been capitally convicted trot state their names, because wish:-to create no prejudice. I fityther observe, that two others of those persons were acquitted upon a former trial, on. Saturday night. Ido not thick that that ought to influence : my judgment upon the present occasion, so as to render it my duty to put. them on their trial' again ; but, inasmuch, us I consider that those, whose ,cases remain, including the two who were ac-• qnitted on Saturtlfif night have been, to con,,i derable degree, the dupes of designing persons, and Coat they kave been led on by the five persons to Whom I have alluded, I am in hopes that -I shall wt be doing wrong. in permitting them to he tlis charged, on giving. bail to appe:tr at any time, when , called upon by the Crown.

After which, Mr. 1131.011 Trt omsoN • proceeded to pass sentence upon the prisoners convicted, be ginning with the minor offenco. Mr. Baron TIIONIE;ON':-- - -" John Eadon, John Baines the elder, Charles Milnes, John Baines the -younger, Win. Blakeborough, aml O r eorge worth, you, the several prisoneis at the liar, have been convicted of an offence, which the dm of the legislature has iiiude a felony. You, John Eudon, and John Baines the elder, are con victed of having administered to different persons. an unlawful oath, an oath tending to bind the persons taking it, and intended by you that it should so bind them, to join in a society of per sons to distuth the public' peace, binding them to secrecy in ,that association, and never to declare what they should know respecting that confe deracy. You, the other four prisoners at the Bar, have been convicted of being present, aid. ing and consenting to 'the administering of that unlawful oath by the pi isoner John Baines the elder, and your offence is of the same degree as that of the men who actually administered that oath. " In the course of the very serious investiga tions, about which we have been so long employ, ed in this place, it has but too plainly appeared what have been the dreadful effects of such oaths so tat {en.--'They certainly have been the means of inducing many unwary persons to enter into these illef;atl associations, and to continue in them, the effect, of whiA associations, and of which en- - menlents in support d them, tuts been sncli tt4. eve-have. witnessed in 'the evidence laid before us in the course of the inquiries ; they have tended to the disturbance of the public peace in the most populous manufacturing part of this county; they have induced lare, , e bodies of men to engage in the most tumultuous proceedings, to attack the houses, plunder the property, begin to demolish the mills, and to destroy the machinery employed. 'in. those mills—rmy they have had the effect of going much further, and have even in aced persons , to proceed to the horrid crime of. murder.----Strictly speaking, the administering those oaths does not make you in law accessaries to"those offences, ,but still they, must' lie `heavy upon your consciences, yon have any tense of right or wrong left. " I - o'l;Jan Eadon, seem to have been long Practised in. so achninistering'theie oaths. Td the person to whom you administered it, you gave in structions to 4:p act that oath by heart, that he might qualify himself to be the administrator•Of it; and to a,person .who Called upon you shortly after you bud so administered•thot oath, you'fully ex plained to what it was intended to bind the par ties, not scrupling to admit that t:,e intention of it was to overturn the. very government :of this country. " You, John Baines the elder, ltavc- made it your boast that your eyes have been opened - for three and twenty years, and yeti atko . detlared your so”titnent with respect to (ioverinne.nt; tend with ,respect to no Government, plainly, -accord ing t• what we have coli•.Tted from the'evillence, preferring anarchy anti confusion to order and subordination in society. •:,I)i.sh is the o ir cue „f *hie!) you, the prisoners at the bar;:stand convict ed, and the punishment which ,the Legislature has provided for that offence is certainly not a Levert one, if it is considered only what a profanation of religion it is ; such 'a daring appeal to the Al mighty, to witness your deSperate engagemeots, asWell•as the hnriid consequences that follow from it.-1f the offence committed by one of you, that I s , by John .Baines the elder, of atithinstering this oath, had been committed only two days later than it-was, the administering of that oath Would have amounted to a capital. felony; for the Legislature seeing that the poislunent was hardly sufficient for offences of such magnitune, .have enacted, that to administer any such oath's, whereby a per son is held bound to commit any murder or other capital felony, shall itself amount to Li capital of fence—that Act of Parliament, however, did not take place till a day after you bad committed this offence. " Under all thesecircomstaneer, we feel it :our duty to pronounce that judgment upon yon which the 'Law has provided, and in the extreme in which it is provided. The judgment of the Court• upon you, the prisoners atthe Bar, is, that you be severally transported beyond •the 'seas for the term of seven years." The prisoners capitally convicted being next put to the Bar, and asked, what they had to say, why Sentence Of Death should not be passed upon them,, prayed that their lives might be spared*.
