NI% DAYM EVANS repeated to the Jot y the ittb. stnnce uF the indictment. The ATTour4EY GENERAL (Mr. Benyon) then detailed the case:— • " Gentlemen of the Jor, , jr, this indictment charges the de fendant with the offence of a misdemeanour, in having riot witty assembled, in company with others, to the number of 300 and more, at Macclesfield; and bail it not been fur the leniency of the prosecutor, I have no hesitation in saying, that the defendant would now base been indicted before you fur a capital offence. I repeat, Gent lemen, that it is entirely owing to the leniency of the. prosecutor that the defendant now appears before you charged only with a misdemeanour. By the act of George L, commonly called "The Riot Act," itis etnicied,•that if a muiiitude riotously and tumultuosly assemble, and do not disperse in ;one hour' after orders by that' effect from one Magistrate; then the partieS 'persisting 'so to meet are guilty of felony without benefit of clergy, But, Gentlemen, in the hope that the example of youi verdict against him will be Salutary, he has not been procerdedagainSt• under that clause, and, as I, have before stated, is flown dieted merely : fur the misdemeanour. . A riot, Gentlemen, is defined to be a tumultuous assembly of three or more per-. suns, with one ennimou object of an unlawful nature in view; and that,this was the case with, respect.to tlic defend- ant, 1 think I can satisfactorily show to you. This indict ment has its origin in the present disturbed state of the northern districts of this county; •and I have no doubt that, out of the twelve Gentlemen who compose the Jury, some, of .you are well acquainted with the circumstances to which I ,allude, and probably some of you may be residents of Maccles field and its neighbourhood. It will be, therefore, quite un necessary to enter into a detail of the particular facts to which the origin of this riot may be : - .ttributeff: a few words, how ever, on thiS subject, may not 'tie irrelevant. The mauu factoring districts in this and theadjoiningcouoty here, unfor._ 1 tunately, for some months past been disturbed by the wicked machirrations of designing incendiaries, whooinder the specious pretext of obtaining a reform in the National Representation, have revolutionized the minds of almost all the people employed is the northern parts of this county. The fact,.Gentlemen, is. too well known ; and I put it to yon, and to the public et large (fur there is scarcely a person in this Court lint huows it to be cfact--au undeniable fact). can it be believed, that those who are employed in .the factories in the work of Sedi tion are calculated in the smallest degree ,to ameliorate by their wicked labours the situation of the country at large? Can it for a moment be believed, that men, with reformation *to their mouths and revolution_ in their hearts, are likely to aecompliSh an object which their very endeavours will destroy? , I think not. They profess, it is true, the as coMplishment of a National and Constitutional Reform ; but what species of Reform is it that they profess? The absurdity of ,their plans is on a level with their ignorance and incapacity; they talk . of Universal Suffrage, of Aantial Paeliametits, . and votes by, ballet. These are the principles which the vile demagogue; put iu the mouths of their prose lytes.., 13ut . would these plans better their situation in the smallest degree? Gentlemen, lam fearful they are grasping at eistriethiug beyond their professions—that they are spread ing abroad the pernicious principle, that the property vf the• rich inhabitants of, the country . Ought to he divided equally amongst its entire population. Such are the Utopian sellemcs they wish to propose to their 'followers ; but, ,thank Heaven, it has always been the boast of England, that what has beta gained by the means of .honest itishistry every man should quietly enjoy end transmit iv his children. Nor is this peculiar to this happy island : it is general throughout every ,civilized nation. But if such wilffrli tor its : were.toprevail, and the protii gatemnd the idle a 41.1 tu,enjoy pie labours of virtue and indus— try,whereavould be our bOtlstett lib.crties,ourriglitsourdootes , tic comforts ? .1s there 51) Englishipimu in cxistenceabat would . not prefer transportation front the Jand.of his birth to 4106 liberty a Is there a, man who now hears rue . who would not rather seek the coverts of the wilds of Africa, or of any of the unexplored portions of the world,• than live • in such a coons try ? He would make a happy exchange fur such an England, in'the desolation of n friendless desert, or in the territory of savages; fur there, perhaps, he might have inane chance of the enjoyment of his own labours; when be could not under such citcunistances, its this once prinid and glorious country, which'would then be the least enviable of any un the face of the earth. Haying proceeded thus tar, I wilt now give a brief out line of the evidence which I inteud to adduce:-0u the 16th, August last, there was an assembly of people io.the town of, Manchester, under the specious pretence of obtaining,* Re form in Parliament. Several thousands of people assembled on that occasion,.. The Yeomanry of the different Districts, and partienlarly of Macclesfield, w ere ordered to Manchester to'assist the Nagistrateto of .the County of Lancaster; :a detachment oil the 31st Regiment was sent horn Macctes , Geld to that place.

The mazistrates then felt• it their duty to read the Itiot Act, and shortly afterwards the prisoner, with. • many others, bloke the Windows of several persons. You will now hear the ev.dence to support this indictment; and when you have heard it, if you think the defendant one of those so tumultuously assetublA, you will find it your duty, in the discharge °flour (Alice, to pronounce him goilty.". The following witnesses were then called : Mr. Samuel Naylor, a printer, in the•employ of Mr. ‘Vilson, Editor of The Macclesfield Courier, deposed, that about thelti:h of AiLust some mi. litery were quartered at Maccledield. Os) the 17th they left it, except two or three, to go Ita Manchester. The cot pa OF MactlesfiHrt Yco. commanded by Sir John Firming Leyces ter, Hart., had also left the to' n. He knew the defendant, who lived in Macclesfield. Ott the 18th August the witness was at his master's house. There was a great crowd ossrsite to it—npwardas of 100 persons ; the defendant was among them. They matched backwards and forwerds by the house. The defendant shouted repeatedly. calling out " Cobbler," (a nickname for Mr. Wilson) ; about a quarter past eight they began to thrust stones ; this was alma a qmorter.of an hour after they came. .'The deftnolato encouraged ii‘ e b o y s to throw.stonts•;, he said, " Now, my lads, go is," or something of that kind. A great 111.11 stones were thrown ; all the windo,‘s of she up per stories its Mr. Wi,son's house were •bi . oken ; the lower windows were protected by shutters. Ile-met the defewhint ti few doors round the cor• tier, and said, " ‘Vhat work it is 1" the defendant replied, •‘ It is." Witness a dvised w a g to {t o home, saying, he thought he bad some influence with the snob, and if he went home. it might be the wens of taking a good many of them away. The defendant said, " They hove isijured. sue." Wittiess replied, " Mr. Wilson has not. iniored you." The defecting said, " N4r; but they haveep-sthe Gentlemen have." _Witness, :then begged him to go home, and take as many with him as ale could. The defendant said, "If they (the gentlemen) will make a bargain with. me, 1. can take the whole home." Witness in. quire what bargain he wished to make. He said, " If they will give me a quart of ale for every man,•l will take them all away." They went out, and in about a quarter sal an hour returned. The defendant was with them then, The town of Mac elqsfield was lighted with gas. The lamps were) put out while this traii going forward. When they were going to break the lamp at the top of , Goose-lane,,witness saw.defendant advance a lit. tle,,as it he were reconnoitring. He then went to his former station, Anti the lamp was instantly broken. . About 200 or 300 persons were there assembled. There was a great deal of noise anti shouting among them : witness did not go trout Mr. Wilson's , honse to see the other parts of the 'town. In abo u t half- an hour the mob came again, and broke the door. The prisoner was 'with them: witness did not hear him s4y .any thing at that time he only sew that he was busy 'among the crowd„ This lasted altogether about an hour and a belle—that is, till near 10 o'clock as night. Cross•ex►rmined by Mr. Joss', the•Reeorder of Chester.—Had known the defendant six year"; he teas a wood-turner by trade. The witness was in the crowd,from the comnfeneement of the riot. Two or three times he was away for a minute or two, and had conversation with several persons—. about half a dozen individuals ; Joseph Farny. hough was one.,and Mr. Gee another.
