Sitting of tke.2lst October , Two tfiernber' s who were not present at the Royal 3fLtiog suck alVOikf 211 the Chamber pro ceeded to hear the Titn tie zLaCe - are tne lii n — xc — clicn — cy testires REPORT ON TUE LAW RESPECTING SEDITION. 111. BELLNIZT, who.was charged by the Commit tee to bsing up their report, read it as follows " Gentlemen, I have the honour to submit to you, in the mime of the Committee charged with the examinition of the projet of the law concern ing the detention of persons accused of crimes against the safety of the kingdom, the opinion which it has conceived. "Among theßomans, when the.spirit of faction menaced the safety of the State, a simple formula was pronounced, and at once the power of the Consuls became absolute. " In a neighbouring country, which has by all jurists been considered as the land of classic li-, berty, very often without any appearance of in testine troubles, and solely because external %vat, made it be feared that the enemy might practise some secret manoeuvres to procure the assistance of domestic traitors and agita,tors, the law was suspended which directs that no man's- pet4onal liberty should be violated,' but in virtue of the purely judiciary forms. [Then .follows some general observationi on personal liberty.] Our Charter has been moro attentive to pub lic right than the two countries of which we speak, It has placed in itseifits means of defence and safety. [After some more general observations, the re port went On " At present, and in the existing state of the legislation, several administrative functionaries and others are charged with what is called the Judiciary Police. " They have the right, or rather it is their duty to 'search out and seize persons convicted of all kinds of crimes : only within a certain period not rigorously defined by the Law, and which has been allowed them for the purpose of collecting evidence against the act denounced, they are obliged to deliver up the accused to the tribunals, which are immediately to try them, and at once to condemn them or set them at liberty. " It is the preliminary delay, which may be called the delay for finding proofs, w h ich the I'rojet of the Law proposes tti extend indefinitely, quest ion. ~~;::: " The end of this proposition then is on the one , hand to a rapid and nnticipted fkrocess, when crimes crf this nature threaten nlttchni,ifichi2f! to the State, and when there. is a Oanger,..thAtA t ihe l , crieninal may escape for want of tithe to convict him. T 2 e - " On the other h an d, th e c ulprit may b so V expert as to have taken such precautions, that though proved guilty to all intents to the vuinds of ordinary men, may combat with success the:par ticular forms reinired for judicial conviction. • [After some general remarks on the expediency of such a regulation, the Reporter goes ou—J "Do circumstances require this ? That 1 . 3 the only true question. " Is any thing asked about good faith !—Let us observe, let us hear, let us determine, and not be afraid to say it is only the accomplicesq,l46 o guilty themselves' %rho. can deny the existeAce.pf the circumstances. L .; " Never was Rome or any other State in a sitn ation in which it was , more requisite or more lawful to pronounce the formula, Caveant Con sules , Ac. " This point is evident, and is only too much so. The CommiGtee has examined the law in it self;—it has seen that respect to liberty vas wisely combined with the precautions required by prudence. " No authority which had not this right to this extent, is now for the first time invested for the purpose of seizing the guilty. " The OfF.cer of judiciary police ,is not bound, as at present, to send the convict before the tribu..- nals as soon as the period has elapsed within xvbieli he may have been able to collect rue neces sary details. . " He is bound, within 24 hours, to give notice to the Prefect of the Department,' who can cause any injustice be undone which may have been eotn mitted, and that in shorter time, than the tribu nals themselves can at present redress an error. " This is not all.—The Officer of Judiciary Police is equally obliged to give notice of the detention within 24 hours to the public Minister; and that association of administrative power wi,tls., judiciary authority, that association Unkquiwn to other nations, guarantees the accused wlis have the misfortune of being the victim 'of an error, the generous protection of the Magistrates. ",Finally,theproject of the Law is temporary, its effect will cease of itself, if it be not renewed by the legiSlative power. " Thus the Committee has received the Proje; as a moderate measure, the result of which is, to call upon each citizen to fulfil the obligation im posed upon all—of making individual interests give way. to those which are general." [The rest of, the'Report is occupied only with the notice of some immaterial objections. which were statted in the Committee, but removed, and an answer to the metaphysical declaimers on liberty. 3 The PRESIDENT.—" The Report is to he print cd and circulated. The discussion wily take place on Monday." No other businoss'of,importance was transacted. At three o'clock the Chamber resolved itself into a Secret Committee, supposed to be for the purpose of electing the Secretary-Editors. Adjourned at four o'clock. CHAMBER OF PEERS. Silting of the 21st Octo!...er, The Chancellor. presided at the Sitting. A long discussion took place on the qu(;;tion whether the proves verbaux s.houl(l be printed, and distributed to the Peers as well as to the Cham ber of Deputies.—lt was decided in the afErmative. The Duke of FiTz-JAmEs said, that be had given in a proposition, signed by himself, that a vote of thanks should be passed by the Cham bers to his Royal Highness the Duke of Angou lemr, for the edurage, energy, and true patr►otism evinced by him the Southern Departments, during the disastrous period which followed the departure of the King. The Chamber decided on receiving rile 'ProliOsi thin, and the next sitting was appo r iitteWfithe , Duke of Fitz-James to develope his motiveso'J) Nothing else of interest took place al tlrfilit7 ting. The Journal des Debats gives a detaled account of the debates in the Chamber of Peers on the 19th, concerning the projet relative to the Court of Accounts. It is by no means interesting.
