P. 9. 1. 18. No statute appears to have been passed within the period of the last six sessions, which can properly be referred to this head, save the 57 Geo. 3. c. 55. G. B. which suspends the habeas corpus act in England, and the act for preventing wrongous imprisonment, and against undue delays in trials, in Scotland. Though this statute tried without an is of a temporary nature, yet as it is one which may be from time to time revived or continued, I have thought it 57 Geo. 3.c.55. right to give it a place in this volume. This statute is G. B. intitled "an act to continue an act, to empower his ma"jesty to secure and detain such persons, as his majesty "shall suspect are conspiring against his person and go"vernment:" and the 57 Geo. 3. c. 3. G. B. to which this act refers, recites that a traitorous conspiracy had been formed for the purpose of overthrowing, by means of a general insurrection, the established government, laws, and constitution of this kingdom; and that designs and practices of a treasonable and highly dangerous nature were carrying on in the metropolis, and in many other parts of Great Britain; and the former statute (in like manner as the latter) therefore enacts, that all or any person or persons that are or shall be in prison within Great Britain, at or upon the day on which this act shall receive the royal VOL.
