YORK, MARCH

Sk tox.—William Lee (aged ) and frilliar
Rouic/ley, both of Sheffield, for having, between
September, alc 1, and Chrillmas laft pall, feloni-
oufly adminiftered an oath to William Simmtt, of
Chellerfield, collier, to engage in an afrociation
or confpiracy, formed for the purpofe of ditturb-
ing the public peace.
Mr.Torelr,c hated the charges in the indift-
ment, upon which Serjeant Coe KELL, in the moll
elegant and imptellive fpeech, addrefTed the Jury ;
after hating the Aft of Parliament of the 33th of
the prefent reign, upon which the felony charged
in the indiftments was founded, he took notice of
the recent trials for High Treafon, and congratu-
lated the country upon the difcovery of one of the
moll atrocious fchemes for the overturning of our
blelTed and happy Conflitution ; but by the vigi-
lance and promptitude of Government, thofe
fehemes have been fruftrated, at the very moment
they were upon the point of breaking out with all
their neceffirry attendants of rapine, bloodfhed, and
every devaftation deltruelive to civil and well re-
gulated fociety.
The firft witnefs called on the part of the Crown
was William Simfey, a collier, aged it years,
brother in law to the prifoner, Roukefley,
lived near Chettei field. The whole of his evidence!
is too long for us to infert in_ our Paper, but we
will endeavour to give the fdbflance of it, with as
much accuracy as our limits will admit. About!
a twelvemonth ago, WI Oftober, be Rated to have I
been folicited by the prifoner, Roukefley, to be.;
come a member of their fociety ; he was told that ;
it would be better for him ; that thole who would
nage), would be made to go ; that if any fell in
the conteft, there was provifion made for their
wives and families ; that they were to fight againft
any that came againft them; that the prifoner
Roukefley told witnefs there were more than too°
in Sheffield; that the prifoner, Roukefley, was
what was called a conduelor ; that the prifoner,
Lee, what was called a Chief ; that the witnefs,
his brother, and the prifoner Roukefley, at the
requeft of the prifoner Roukefley, went to the pri.
loner Lee's honk, when an oath was adminiftered
to witnefs and his brother by Lee ; did not recol-
lett the whole of the oath, but recollefts that they
were fworn to keep the ferrets of the fociety ; that
Roukefley told the witnefs the objeß of the fociety
was to overturn Parliament, to make this a free na-
tion, and to rule themfelves ; that that freedom,
anethofe objelts, were to be obtained by fighting.
Witnefs underftood there were five chiefs in Shef- '
field, the number of thole called conduftors he
did not know ; that in Anguft laft, the prifoner, 1
Roukefley, gave orders to a man of the name of I
Ram&er, to make fame pikes; that he, the fame I
prifoner, told witnefs, that they had received or-
ders to prepare arms ; that he, the prifoner, Ron- '
kefley, laid, he Gould prepare arms for his own
men ; that the prifoner Roukefley, witnefs, and
his brother, went to a wood near Sheffield, and
cut fome wood for pike wafts ;.that he heard the
prifoner Roukefley fay, ,that a letter had been in-
tercepted at the Poll Office from London, which
had led to a difcovery ; that in confequence of
that difcovery, it was necefary to fecrete the arms; '
that in confequence the what'll, his brother, WI
liam Rooney, and Thomas Frede, went to a woad
near Sheffield, after having previoufly put the
arms in a cite% and buried the cheft in the
ground; that he was afterwards taken up ;Ault
he gave information to the Magi ftrate before whom
he was taken, of all he knew ; that he afterwards
went with the Conftable to the. place where this
box, with its contents, had been fecreted, and that
it was taken from its place of concealment.
Edward Simley (brother of the laft witnefs)
corroborated the preceding evidence, but added
thereto, that the prifoner Roukefley faid,we mean
to take poffelifion of the barracks (meaning the
barracks near Sheffield) that we will make the
foldiers prifoner, take their arms from them, and
afterwards come and take poffeffion of the town.
Thomas Ramfker proved, that the prifonet,
Roukefley, cattle to him and ordered arms of a
certain conitruftion, which he, the witnefs, did not
underhand, until the prifoner Roukefley brought
him one that was made. The box containing thofe
inftrumenu of deftruftion was produced to him,
but he would not pofitively fwear that they were
of his making.
There inftruments are abaft three times the faze
of a carving knife blade, but edged on both fides
like a dagger.
There were three or four other witneffes called
to corroborate the former evidence.

The judge. in a molt impreffive manner, rum.
med up the evidence, and after pointing out to the
Jury the bleflings every honeft and peaceable man
enjoyed under our happy and valuable Coaltits-
non ; he contraßed the charafter and happinefs of
loch men, with the charaaer, and the wild and
mifcrable imagination of the prifoners at the bar.
The Jury immediately pronouncedthe prifooers
guilty.
The Learned judge, upon paling the lenience
of the law upon the prifoners, pointed out to them,
in the molt folemn manner' the enormity of their
crime, of which they had been found guilty, as I
well refpeEting their aging fo contrary as good
members of an eftabli&ed Government, but alto
as violating thofe principles upon which true re-
ligion is founded ; namely, charity. will to-1
wards each other and peace all mea.— ,
The Learned judge obferved.that if their fchemes
had been carried into eft& civil Rickey would at
once have been deftroyed ; every happinefs of
which this country in particular can boat of; all
chafe (acted ues which at once unite us in civil

cence of religion, would at once have become d.•

peared alto from the evidence of die profecuter.
that a time was appointed to meet the prifoner at
a public houfe in Sheffield upon the bufinefs ; that
they did 'accordingly meet, and that the prifoner
wrote a lettcr, and read it over to the profecutor, in

letter, and direfted it to Meffrs. Cox and Green/.

room with the letter, for the evicts purpofe of
getting a wafer ; that he returned with a letter

had Peen him write ; that he tealed it in their pre-
; fence, and it was put into the hands of one of the
witnelles to take to the Pon.office, who proved that
4 he put the fame in. After the lapfe of a little time

Meas. Cox and Greenwood, faying that no re-

he the prifoner had wrote and read in their pre-
tence ; the charge therefore was, that when he
came to meet the profecutor at the public houfe
in Sheffield, he came with that letter ready writ-
ten, and that when be left the room for the pur-
pole of getting a wafer, he had changed the let-
ter containing the money with the one be bad

P ' &void Mailer, Efq. of Sulcoates, in the
Eaft Riding, committed the 4th of February fan,
for the wilful murder of Margaret Mailer, his
daughter. The prifoner was found guilty ; but as
it appeared upon his trial, upon the evidence of
two phyficians, and one of his own fervants, that
he had for tome time been in a (late of infanity,
he did not receive fentence of death.
SALISBURY, MARCH 9.
A caufe of great importance to manufaanren
was decided this day. It appeared that Littleton
Mill, the property of Mr. thirst., of Trowbridge.
had been dearoyed by fire, on the aril of July, by
a number of riotous workmen. The Counfel, on
behalf of the landed Gentlemen of the Hundred.
endeavoured to prove that the words of the Aft,
" demolith and pull down," did not include de-
nt-064m by fire; but the judge was of opinion.
that this cafe was within the meaning of the AB,
and the Jury confequently found two verdias for
the proprietor and occupier of the mill, for the
fum of 80001. each, folic& to the reduition and
amendment of the Counfel, to whom the particu-
lar claims of the plaintiff were referred by the
Court. This fine will fall very heavy on the
