man Of the name of Edwards communities
ted, that Cabinet dinner was to be held
lat Lord Harrowby's house the next eve
ming. They all expressed theirjoy at the
news, and Brunt said, g I'll be ID If
don't believe there is Cod have Of
ten prayed that these thieves might be all
together, ia order to be murdered, and
now he has heard my prayer Thistle
wood added that it would be rare
bout TO murder them all, and Immediately
drew up a plan to carry 1t into execution.
| He was to get the door open himself by
knocking, to rush 10, and throw hand
lgrenades among the Ministers, and TO
murder good aud bad. If any good we're
among them, they were to be murdered
for keeping bad company.-Ings was to be

rest. He was determined TO say to Lord
Sidmouth, /" Here is my Manchester Cav

lon citizens, do your duty" He deter
mined with bis own butchers knife, to cut
off the heads of every one of the Minis

Castlereagh and Sidmouth in triumph. 1t
would also be necessary to 60 TO the Tel
Iegrsph over the water to take possession
of that, and to prevent any communica-

fmean time provisional government might
be formed, and steps taken at the sea-
ports, especially Dover, Brighton and
Margate, to prevent any one from leaving
the place without an order from the gov

most important. An armed force must be
sent there, and he further added, that the
present family had inherited the crown
