TIE above writing, which is by fome fup-

upon Friday, February II, I77I,at the houle

Upon Saturday, March 9, paper, in the

Lord Mayo in The tower.
Yeaerday the right hon. the Lord Mayor
attended by Mr. and Mrs Oliver, went tc

preathe by the Rev. Mr.. Evans, his Lord
lhip's Chaplain; after which his LordhiE
gave an elegant entertainment TO the DePu
ty-Goyernor, and the other officers of tht
Carlton, at bis apartments in the Tower.
1t has been calculated, that ihouId the Lo'C

A certain lady, remarkable for her fpirit in

have attentive'y perufal the above written
cafe, and though from the bad deigns which
appear 20 be formed agantt the liberties of
the people, there may be danger in giving
opinion, which fome of my protection would
chu(e 70 avoid, ihall, as it becomes an hH-
nef and firm man, proceed 10 give Nj.
Whebe my counfc', Without atten'onto any
other object than the laws and contribution
of this free country.
Ans w ERS.
To the hra qusition, | am mott clearly
and decilively OF opinion, that M Whet'e
is 10, compeIabie by law to attend TIE HouIe
OF Commons in purluance of hc written OF
der above aated. II the grounds upon which
the order of attendance was 'fiu@d BY the
Houie Of Commons had been made pat OF
of the prelent cafe, ! would Their give my
opinion, whether that aa-mby had any
authority at all, or in what cafes to compel
an attendance upon them; bur as they are
not, mutt take up the matter upon the fun
mons alone. Ii is now therefore OF no COIL
iequence what wa, the cauie that rcnulicd
f,E=l s.l<
as little notice of It upon the cafe before me,
as Mr.. WhebIe Gould upon fight OF the
luminous, beyond which he had no need TO
look. The order itfef is woIded in 10 lnludI-
cial and un clerk like manner, that tits CO.
vered with objections almott from the tlrft
letter to the laf (D know not that an
Enghlhman is required to underitand Latin,
Especially iince the act of parliament, that all
procefs of the law lhaIl be in EngIiih, and in
no other language whatloeVer; smongt
other procefs orders being particularly emu
meIated, if this order be not pioceis Of Jaw
it can have no effect and If it is, it ought TO
be in Engllh whereas the order in quei'lon
contains words in itr4nge language, without
having the exemption of being technical
Latin words. (2) J. Whebie is deicriptlon
of nobody, it might as well have been written
eye Wheble, or nofe Wheble, either of them
would be as much the name of Ohm Wheble
as the former. Beiides, perlon is not legally
named without a proper addition OF quality
and abode, which is MOTTO much as attempted
at in this pretended order. 81 The place
Of attendance is not Efficiently expreiled ;
this b5gS, is more properly the houte of John
Wheble where the order was left, than any
other houie, for there is no date Of place 10
the order Mr.. Whcble therefore belt at
tended this order by faying at home.
(4) The date Of time being expreiled in TO-
reign tongue, which an EngIlihman need not
underfAnd or attend to, the day Of attendarca
became confequuently uncertain; Imfaw
morning next having no day which IT IS ne,;t
to follow. 81 Another objection lies 20 tbs
part of the order, that the morning Of day
is too indefinite 70 FIX an attendance; the
law requiring that an hour as well as day
fhould be fpecihed in every order Of a,tsa-
dance. TO- Ii the Houie Of Commons had
power to ilue this luminous, It ought 70 DC
igned by the Speaker, and not b. Peio1
uiing certain cabalifical expeditions, whch
may politely be continued to mean clerk of
the Houle of Commons. The Speaker ought
ALTO to recite that he had an expreis authority
given him by the Houle, before he PERFUMES
t. iiIue any luminous or warrant whGlfoever.
1t is the office of the Speaker, and not Of the
clerk 10 authenticate the acts of the Houfe.

the Tower.
1t is Cad the Lord Mayor will not ap-
point Iocum Tenens for any other Pufpole
than Common la | which will caoie a
great difficulty in the execution Of pdot eu-
hnefs.
Another account fays, all brf~cf is at
fland at the Manllon houie, no alderman
chuGes ar prefent to fit for the Lord Mayor,
though lcveral have been applied to for that
purpofe.
The fashionable toaa that now prevails
from one end oflh,s metropolis to the other
is, Z" Success to OLIVER the Sec0nd."
Wren Mr.. Alderman Oliver hra went to
the Tower, his goaler, according to his or
ders, 'oCk down the names of thoie who came
to vit him but the viGors where 10 numer-
Gus that the man loon found it mpoiliblc he
threw down his pen, aud cuIled the Houie Of
Commons, and iaid if they had a mind to
have the names, they n,uit lend two Of their
own clerks to write down the ifis.
Yeferday two meetings were held offeve-
raj members Of the oppoiiion, Lords and
Commences, when if was reio'yed to vii, the
Alderman in the Tower in conIequence of

the Marquis Of Rockingham, &c. this day

Oliver was lent thither, without waiting for
any meeting of their party, or Pegmifion of
their leaders.
The MinlRers blame the Onilows for their
raihnels and incompetence they blame the
Minifters for their coolneis and moderation
his Majefy bames them for making him
party, by advlling Proclamation and poor
john Bull hames them all together, being al
ways fure to fuffer for their blunders.
Not long ago one Mr.. Wright, very in
genious mechanic of Clerkenwell, went to
the Kings Palace, and delired to be introdu-
ced to his Maefy the attendants demand

As to the relolye, which fays they are all
fenGb,e of their intake, and have returned
to their duty, il is very curious. This IS
not the frG time we read Of peace being

you ridiculous, not alter your characters.
Perhaps this public action has only confirmed
the opinions Of mankind, and has more
widely extended your infamy.
On the whole cannot but pity the mife-

fuppof and coun4nance this opinion in his peech from
the Throne. Certainly, my Lords, there never was
more odious, more Infamous faIfheod Impoied on
great nation 1t degrades the Kings honour. 1t is an
inult to Parliament His Majefy has been advifed to
confirm and give currency to an ak)6luts faJbOod.
beg your Lordlhps attention, and hope fhalI be I'M
detftood when repeat that the Court OF opaIns having
davowed the act OF their Governor is an 05oHff PAL
table falbood. Let me ak, my Lords, when the hrit
communication was made by the Court OF Madrid, OF
their being apprzed of the taking of Falkland iand,
was it accompanied with an offer of infant reittutIon, OF
immediate fatisfaion, and the punhment of the Span
in Governor If it was not, they have adopted the act
as their own and the very mention of daVowal an
impudent niut offered to the Kings dignity. The KING
of Spain owns the thief while he leaves him unPunihed,
and profits by the theft in vulgar Englh ne is the re-
ceiver and to be treated accordingly
IF YOUR Lordihps will look back period of the
EngIh hifory in which the circumstances are reverted,
in which the Spanards the compliments, you Will
fee how differently they fucceeded You will fee one OF
the albeit men, of the bavei officers this, or any o.
ther country ever produced hardly necetiay herr
ton the name Of Sir w alter Raleigh iacrfcfdTbY the
meanef Prince that ever fat upon this throne, % the VIM
dietive ieaoufy of that naughty Court James the lift
was bale enough, at the nance of Gondomar, to fufer
fentence asanf SirW alter Raleigh, for another fuP-
poed offence TO be carried into execution amot twelve
wears after it had been paAed This the Pretence
His real crime was, that he had MORALLY offended the
Spaniards, while he acted by the Kings expres orders,
and under his commifion.
NV Lords the pretended difavowal by The Court Of
Spain is as ridiculous it fae. If your Lordihps
want any other proof, call for your own officers who
were Aa;ioned at Falkland nand. AK the officer who
commanded the garrifon, whether when he was fun
moned to furrender, the demand made in the name

For the MASSACHUSETTS SPY.
Mr. THOMAS,
7 HAVE been twice informed BY gentle
men from the interior parts of the pro
vince, that we are indebted to the influence
of our prelent commander in chief for al the
fine things we are told are in reveIiion fol
US. Nothing indeed is more likely for the
whole tenour of his conduct has been one
uniform ferries of indi(putabe evidences OF
his ffcady regard for, and jealous adherence
to the rights of this people. For born and
educated among them, carofed and pro-
NOTED, beloved and honoured, by them, and
finally, intereffcd with them in one common
bottom it is humanity fpesking impofible
he lhcllj be any thing but their father, and
their friend | could have wifhed indeed, |
had received my grateful intelligence the
other way; or what would have been much
more lucky, that the limitations on which
alone it is founded, had come 20 hand hour
before that lat unfortunate Ipeech to the late
houfe had got out among the people. But
as it is, doubt not we have friends enough
in the country, to snign efficient realons for
that, and ,houCAnd other little jnadverten-
cies, or rather mifimed incidents, in his
Excelency's conduct, which, his captious
enemies very greedily catch at, and improve
to his disadvantage. But fhould your cor
respondents find any part lahO"ring for want
of fair, at leaf plaufble account of, why
any feemingiy inconhaent reps have been
taken, in the late difficult times for great
magiarate to pleafe all parties, the leait in
timaton of fuch puzzle will be kindly re-
ceived, and its evolution zealouny entered
upon by candidate for Chief Juficefhp,
otherwile a competitor of the Earned, the
logical, the elegant IMPAvIDus.
A SEEKER.

tnOlC lu2t.eIS WHICH GO not appear, aS 10
,hole which do not exit" In fact, upon the
face Of the order it appears to be illegal, and
VIVA, Mr.. Wheble neither needed or ought
20 have obeyed.
I'd Gu. The frff queifion being anfwered
in the negative, the iecond requires no con-
confederation; bur if the attendance was le-
gally reputable, purfuant to the above order,
il would not be difficult to thew what penal
ties the refuiing party would be liable to upon
refort to the legal courts of jufice, which
have cognizance of fuch offences.
I'D On. lfthe fummons be invalid, the fub-
iequenr warrant BY the Speaker mua necef-
fairly be invalid aIfo; FL the defects of the
fummons were not cured BY any appearance
OF Mr.. Wheb'e. A form of warrant makes
no more lega authority for 70 much the
WORD imports) than Coaa45le's Raff makes
a peace oficer. IF the warrant was legal,
: M tlenger of the Houie is not proper per-
ION for executing it; but only the SERGEANT
At Arms, and the Deputy Sc 9ant. But
theic are triAes with retpe6t TO the queition
fal the anfwer is mo9 plain and poi,ive,
that the Speaker of the Houlc of Commons
is no more Magarae appointed to iaue
warrants of apprehension than the Hou(e it,
felt is a court Of jutice appointed to puniih.
Neither one or the other have thoie powers;
and when they ufurp them, the people have
right to treat them as invaders of their IL
berries Particularly the immediate object of
the tyranny has authority, by the law of this
country, and BY the law Of God, TO defend
his liberty and perfon by farce and arms
againf luch illegal attempts, though he ihould
be obliged TO lacrihce, in the protection Of
hmieIf from the violence, all the SeIjeants,
al the Menengers, and even the Speaker
hmfelf of the Aoufe of Commons. mutt
add, that warrant of dpprebegtfon, grounded
upon flppoled contempt, always carries with
it an argument againa its own legality. No
f9nfsmbfs of the Houfe of Commons are ba-
mi@able by themlelves; they can only refrain
infant and open cOntembt5 committed by the
party in the face of the Houie. A warrant
to abbrebend, lhows that the party does not,
in the preience of the Houfe, diJfwb its de-
bates or okqraa its authority; fuch being the
only legal idea of CONTEMPT.
4th Qu. This queRion admits Of no hefi-
tation or difpute. The pretended proclama-
ton of the King is clearly illegal. Proclama-
tons have no intrinhc force in this country;
nor have they any at all but by fpeciai act OF
parliament. They may ierve at other times
to intimate TO the people the necefIity and in
clnation of the Prince to put particular laws
in execution. If they Introduce a new Jaw,
they are truly in efhcaclous. TIE Conftltu
ton Of this country has not trulted to the
King, with whom 70 much power is placed,
the authority Experimenting or committing
any iubje6ts oflhe realm. That authority is
left alone to the magiftrates, and to the
court, Of juaice. But had the proclamation
in other refJeas been legal warrant for ap-
pretending John Wheble, many objections
would Fill lie to the form and contents of it.
IF any perfon apprehends Mr.. Wheble, in Pur-
iuAnce Of this proclamation, he ought to be
prolecu;ed by action or Indictment; and any
magiffrate, before whom Mr.. Whebe is
brought, ought, if he does his duty, to let him
at large, and commit the ahaant upon his
perlon whether he be a Kings herald or
Speakers mehenger) unefs he can give good
bail for his appearance. Perfons are liable to
no penalty for concealing or not discovering
Mr.. Whebe, as is falfely infatuated in the
proclamation. Neither the officers Of the
cufoms or others have right to examine
perfons paRing beyond the feas. This pro-
clamation has not the force of Ne fxfas
,-souo. All the loving Gih;c9s cf his Maiefv.

The disturbances appear TO have originated
in the county Of Granville; to have extended
foale time after to Halifax, SIC. and at aitto
Orange. In Granville they fay, " 1t is not

fuffer BY thole who are Empowered to manage

lerable sbufes that have crept into the practice

fures they proceed thus. "Let US be careful TO

beration Let US do nothing againft the known

endeavouring to fubvert the laws and ovef-
turn the fyfem Of government but let us
take care to appear what really we are, free
fubjetts by birth, endeavouring to recover
our loft native rights, b. reducing the mall
practices of the officers OF our courts down
to the Randard of law" Thus they fpoke.
The meafure they appear to have taken was
by petition to the Legislature. The unfor-
tunate Ggners Of the petition were (ued by the
officers for libel. The writer ofthe paper
from which the above extracts aremadc was
imprifonsd. And though the petition feems
to have been publilhed in June 1863, yet
the voracious luits remained undetermined in
1910. From Granville thsfe dfcontents oc-

that the fame is mott wantonly cruel, and
uniufi unlefs it be thought tyranny to be

ReG!usd, That we think it a duty which
we owe to ourleives, and the public, to al

though it lcems to ariGe from the former, is
not 70 abfolstely dependant upon them as to
appear their necefary product that is, the
rri;gning taRs. This according to Montague
is the forceful engine which builds or over
throws all the empires of the world. In his
excellent Treatife of the Rife and Fall OF

author we may nationally conclude, that no
eHential mutation can be effected in this CO.
vernment, (unleis by the violence of cxter-
nal force while the manners Of the people
are 70 utterly unit for the change.
In the New England colonies the agrarian
law is 06inifiO constitutional the people aIe

no individual can feel himfef ealy with the
dilaRe of the people. And let the hupld
tools of tyranny pirate what they will, there
is not part ofthe globe leis chargeable with
faction, which is really running into cabals
for the promotion Of fome private intcreh,
in cppolition to that of the publics. A com
potency in the hands Of great numbers gives
them leilu.e to inform themfelveS in hiitofy
and politics; and know my Lord Hilibo-
rough that your bones will be rotten, before
cny one can render horle-racrg and cock

Another important encouragement crowns the
engaging profpeef, the evident contempt Of
riches and the temptations of riot and luxury.
The enemies of our liberty have piqued
themfeives on expoiing iome of our mott able
and aHiduous patriots, as men of no pro-

commended for, were introduced and sHeted
by Houfc of Commons which aboifhed

confirmed their power BY making moderate

period, to be tacitly admitted as the privilege
Of parliament at another.
If however il could be proved, from con :
alterations of necefity or convenience, that
an unlimited power of commitment ought to
be intruAed to the Houfe of Commons, and
thai in fG3 they have exercifed it without

Prefumption is firongy againR them. Il is
a leading maxim OF the laws of England
(and, without it, all laws are nugatory) that
there is no wrong without remedy, nor any
legal power without legal courfe to carry
it into efea. Let the power, now in quef-
ton, be tried BY this rule. The Speaker
illues his warrant of attachment. The party

in favour Of Houie of Commons ffill hang
ing about me. | thought that quefiion,
between law and privilege, could never be
brought TO formal deciGon, without incon-
venience to the public fervice, or manifeis
diminution Of legal liberty, and ought there
fore to be carefully avoided: And when !
Jaw that the violence of the Houfc OF Com
mons had carried them too far to retreat,
determined not to deliver bafty opinion
upon mat er of 70 much deIicacy and
Importance.
The fate Of things is much altered in this
county, 6nce il was necefary to protect our
representatives againf the direct power Of
the crown. We have nothing to spprehend
from prerogative, but every thing from I'M
due influence. Formerly it was the eIeit
of the people, that the privileges of parla-
ment fhould be left unlimited and underlined.
At prefent it is not only their intereif, but |
hold it to be eiientislly neceilary to the pie
fervatioD of the contribution, that the priv
leges of parliament fhould be ftriefly alceT-
tanned, and be confirmed within the narrow
eft bounds the nature of their inltitution will
admit Of Upon the fame principle, on which
4 would have reflted prerogative in the laft
century, now refa privilege. 1t is in
different to me, whether the crown, by its
own i1nslediase aes imrofes new, and dif
pennies with I'D laws, or whether the fame
arbitrary power produces the fame effects
through the medium Of the Houie Of Com
mons. We huHed our representatives with
privileges for their own defence and ours.
We Cannot binder their defertion, but we can
prevent their carrying over their arms to The
fervice of the eremy. II will be faid, that |
begin with endeavouring to reduce the argu-
ment concerning privilege to meer queition
of convenience thatI deny at ore moment
what would allow at another and i:aat to
refiff the power of a proliituted Huuie Of
Commons, may effablifh precedent inju-
rious to all future parliaments. To this |
anfwer generally, that human affairs are in
no infance governed by ffrief pofiIive right.
If change of circumstances were to have no
weight in directing our condua and opinions,
the mutual intercourfe of mankind would be
nothing more than a contention between po-
litive and equitable right. Society would be
a fate Of war, and law itfelf would DC injuf-
tice. Ga this general ground, it is highly
reafouable, that the degree of our fubmfiion
to privileges, which have never been defined
by any poiitive law, fhould be conildered as
a quelfion Of convenience, and proportioned
to the confidence we repofe in the integrity
of our representatives. AS TO the injury we
may do TO any future and more Respectable
Houfe of Commons, own | am not now
fanguine enough to expect more plentiful
haryelf Of parliamentary virtue in one year
than another. Our political climate is f.
verely altered and, without dwelling upon
the deprayty of modern times, think no
Reasonable man will expect that, as human
nature is confituted, the enormous influence
of the crown ihould cesle to prevail over the
virtue ofindividuals. The mitchell lies too
deep to be cured by any remedy, lefs than
fome gieat convuihon, which may either
carry back the confituiion to its original
principles, or utterly dearoy it. ! do not
doubt that, in the fri fefion after the next
election, ione popular meafures may be
adopted. The prefent Houfe of Commons
have injsred themfelves by too early and
public protection Of their principles and if
iirain of profiiution, which had no example,
were within The reach of emulation, il might

loon. But after all, Sit, II is very lmma-
teri4l whether Houie of Commons fhzll
preierve their virtue fer week, month, or
year. The influence, which makes fep-
tenn!al parliament dependent upon the plea
fare OF The crown, has permanent operation,
and cannot fail OF fucceis. My promiies,
know, will be denied in Argument, but every
mans confidence tells him they are true. l.
remains rhsn T. be oopfidered, whether il b,
for the intefca of the peope, tina, privilege
Of parliament (Which, in reipeet to The pur.
po!ss toE which ii has hitherto been acquticsd
under, is merely nominal) ihoud be con-
tra6ied within iome certain limits, or whether
the fubje6t ihall be eft at he mercy of
power. arbitrary upon the face OF it, and no.
toEioUily under the direction of the crown.
Go not mean TO decline the quettion Of
right. On the contrary, Sir, join iilue with
the advocates for privilege, and affirm, 4" that
excepting the cafes wherein the Houfe of
Commons are a court of judcature 10 which,
from the nature of their Office, coercive
power mutt belong) and excepting fuch con
tempts as Immediately interrupt their pro.
ceedings, they have no legal authority to i'm.
piIfon any man fokany Iuppofed violation OF
privilege whatfoever." 1t is not pretended
that privilege, as now claimed, has ever beeh
defined or confirmed BY tatue; neither CAT
!. &c S:d, with any coloGr Of ;su;h, &c be
part of the common law of England, which
had grown into prefcription long before we
knew any thing of The exiaence of Hcuk
of Commons. AS for the law Of parliament,
it is only another name for the privilege in
queaion; and fince the power of creating
new privileges has been formally renowned
by beth houies,. --Gnce there is no code, in
which we can fudy the law Of parliament,
we have but one way left to make ourlelves
acquainted with il; that is, 10 compare the
natuie of the inltiiutiou of a Houle Of Com.
mons with the facts upon record. To eta
biilh clam ofPrivilege in either Houfe, and
to diiineuifh original right from an ufurpa-
ton, it mutt appear that ie is indllpenfably
ncceiAry for the performance of The duty
they are employed in, and allothat it has been
uniformly allowed. From the fri part OF
this defcriPtiOn it follows clearly, that what
ever privilege does of right belong to the pre-
feni Houfc of Commons, did equally belong
to the fri shembly of their predeoeAors,
was as completely vefed in them, and might
have been exeicifed in the fame extent.
From the fecond we NUT infer that privi-
legcs, which, for Geveral centuries, were not
only never allowed, but never even claimed
by the Houie of Commons, NUT be founded
upon uiurpAtion. The conftnutional duties
of Houle of Commons are not very com
plcaied, nor myferious. They are to pro-
poGc or allent TO wholefore laws, for the be-
neht of the nation. They are to grant the
necel1ary aids to the King ;---petition for the
redress of grievances, and profecute treafon,
or high crimes againl the fate. Illuminated
privilege be necefary to the performance Of
thefe duties, we have resGon TO conclude
thar, for many centuries after the infiitution
of the Houfe of Commons they were never
performed. am not bound TO prove ne
gative, but appeal TO the EOgiifh hifory
when affirm that, with the exceptions al

the law, and. that alone, is the rule by which
the actions Of the monarch as well as the
peaiant, arc to be weiated. ] am fenEble

air IF Turkey or OF China. I hefe poor
people have long Gnce lott every lentlmens
which cnobes human nature, ard raGk in
the fcae Of exiftence, but little above the
BEATS that PERTH. But we live in cline,
where liberty, civil and religious, is inter
woven with the fundamentals of the coniti-
tuition in cline where the tive feels the
force Of theie principles in bis breaif, and is
determined to preferve them at all hazards.
A .-ceal,l- - =. rules Of fIla co:aitnfioa,

who lived about the beginning Of this century,
Ipeaking on this fuEjee fays, " The con

buary tyranny like the Tutkifh Grand
Seignior's, but an exceently mixed monar
chy. Here the law is the bsnG and r7eofare OF
every mans duty, each man having fixed
fundamental right born with him, as to fee
dom of Perlon, and property of etia'e "
Euglifh Liberties, p. II. OF the fame OPT
ron is the learned Forteicue, who was Chief
Tuilce to Harry the Sixth, The King,

by power, not only royal, but alfo polite
If his power were only regal, he might

admitted as Law, will il not clearly follow,
Gist iuftfuaions are wholly illegal! They
