Port Louis, island of Mauritius, this 16th day of July, 1819. R. DARLING, MajorGen. Commanding.

The major-general would be glad if this warning shall have the effect of awakening the deluded to a sense of their situation; the example of Philibert, Tregrosse and Clerensac, who were sent to England last year, and have been sentenced to three years' confinement and hard labour, should be sufficient to deter even the most determined. Those who still persevere cannot long escape its justice, as government will never relax in its exertions, until they have been brought to that punishment which the law has attached to their crimes, and which will be ensured by the transmission of every culprit in England.

The major-general commanding has in consequence been pleased to order, and it is hereby ordered accordingly—

Art. 1. The proclamation of the 25th February, 1819, is repealed; and the proclamation of the 1st May, 1818, is declared to be again in full force from this

date.

Art. 2. The present proclamation shall he read and entered on the records of the courts and tribunals of this island; and an official copy shall be addressed to his honour the chief judge and commissary of justice.

Sec. to ment.

By his royal highness the Prince of Wales, regent of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, in the name and on the behalf of his majesty.

A PROCLAMATION.

George, P. R. Whereas, in diverse parts of Great Britain, meetings of large numbers of his majesty's subjects have been held upon the requisition of persons who, or some of whom, have, together with others, by seditious and treasonable speeches addressed to the persons assembled, endeavoured to bring into hatred and contempt the government and constitution established in this realm, and particularly the Commons House of Parliament, and to excite disobedience to the laws, and insurrection against his majesty's authority.

And whereas it hath been represented unto us, that at one of such meetings the persons there assembled, in gross violation of the law, did attempt to constitute and appoint, and did as much as in them lay constitute and appoint, a person, then nominated, to sit in their name and on their behalf in the Commons House of Parliament; and there is reason to believe that other meetings are about to be held for the like unlawful purpose.

And whereas many wicked and seditious

seditious writings have been printed, published and industriously circulated, tending to promote the several purposes aforesaid, and to raise groundless jealousies and discontents in the minds of his majesty's faithful and loyal subjects.

And whereas we have been farther given to understand, that with a view of the better enabling themselves to carry into effect the wicked purposes aforesaid, in some parts of the kingdom, men, clandestinely and unlawfully assembled, have practised military training and exercise.

And whereas the welfare and happiness of this kingdom do, under Divine Providence, chiefly depend upon a due submission to the laws, a just reliance on the integrity and wisdom of parliament, and a steady perseverance in that attachment to the government and constitution of the realm, which has ever prevailed in the minds of the people thereof: and whereas there is nothing which we so earnestly wish as to preserve the public peace and prosperity, and to secure to all his majesty's liege subjects the entire enjoyment of their rights and liberties.

We, therefore, being resolved to repress the wicked, seditious and treasonable practices aforesaid, have thought fit, in the name and on the behalf of his majesty, and by and with the advice of his majesty's privy council, to issue this our Royal Proclamation, solemnly warning all his majesty's liege subjects to guard against every attempt to overthrow the law and to subvert

And we do strictly enjoin all his majesty's loving subjects to forbear from the practice of all such military training and exercise as aforesaid, as they shall answer the contrary thereof at their peril.

And we do charge and command all sheriffs, justices of the peace, chief magistrates of cities, boroughs and corporations, and all other magistrates throughout Great Britain, that they do, within their respective jurisdictions, make diligent inquiry in order to discover and bring to justice the authors and printers of such wicked and seditious writings as aforesaid, and all who shall circulate the same; and that they do use their best endeavours to bring to justice all persons who have been or may be guilty of uttering seditious speeches and harangues, and all persons concerned in any riots or unlawful assemblies, which, on whatever pretext they may be grounded, are not only contrary to law, but dangerous to the most important interests of the kingdom.

Given at the court at Carltonhouse, this 30th day of July, 1819, and in the 59th year of his majesty's reign.

GOD SAVE THe King.
