' He then proceeded to stale the circumstances under which the prisoners had gone from London , in order to shew their connexion with each o her . Binns , who went by the name of Williams , occupied Ihe lodg ings of his brother , 8 . Binns , at Ihe house df Evans , Secretary to the London Corresponding Society , Plough Court , Fetter-lane ; and it would be found that previous to the 21 st of

February , the prisoner Binns had hired a room , which formed part of the apartments of a Mrs . Smith , in the same house . On the 21 st he left London for the purpose of hiring a vessel to go to France , to cany the above paper , and such other intelligence as might be necessary . He went to Grayesend , took the coach to Rochester , and proceeded lo Canterbury , where be applied 10 two persons of the names of Claris and Mahony , and , ' pretending to have some concern in ihe smuggling line , expressed a wish 10 have a recommendation to some person at Whitstahlcin order lo procure a vessel to go across . They mentioned the names

, of several persons who let out vessels . Binns ( lien went on to Whitstable , aud applied to the person whom he should call 10 prove Ihe fac ' , for a vessel 10 go to Flushing . It was represented lo him lhat he could not have a boat 10 go there on account of its being an enemy ' s port , and an embargo being laid on all vessels : He then proposed that ihe vessel should go 10 Havre , Calais , Dunkirk , or seme other port ; but on its being still represented hew extremely hazardous such a service was , Binns observed there was no hazard at all , and that he liad the ¦ means of insuring the safe return of the vessel ; and the result was , it was

proposed that 300 guineas should be deposited by Binns in the Canterbury Bank , as a security for the return of the vessel , and that 100 guineas should be given for the trip , in case the vessel should come back . Tin ' s happened on Fr . dav ihe 23 d of February . Binns thought these terms too extravagant , aud therefore returned to Canterbury next morning , and from thence went to Deal on the Saturday , where he made the same sort of" proportions to the witnesses who would be called , as he bad done al Whitstable . He had agreed 10 give Co guineas for a boal to go 10 Flushing , Havre , kc . On Saturday evening he returned to

Canterbury with ihe intention of proceeding lo London , before the other prisoners at the bar should have set out , but he did not arrive in London before they had departed on board the Whitstable hoy . ft Was now necessary lo stale ihe conduct of Ihe other prisoners . On the Saturday he had returned from Canterbury . O'Connor , who had a lodging in Stratton-str . et , was intimate with a person of the name of Bell , a menhan ! in Charler-house-square , al whose bouse he occasionally dined and slept , and where Ouigley , under ihe assumed name of Captain Jones , occasionally dined , as the friend of O'Connor . On the Saturday

O'Connor aud Ouigley dined with Mr . Bell , and there O'Connor slept ; Quigley slept at No . i 4 ~ Plough-court , the lodging of Allen , who represented his servant . The Attorney-General said , before he proceeded to br . ng the parties together on board the ' Whitstable hoy , be would state , lhat O'Connor wrote a letter to Binns , under the name of Williams , at Canterbury , which letter he desired his friend Bell to send . Itwas lo this effect : ' Dear friend , 1 set off to-morrow morning in She Whitstable hoy , and hope to be with you at night : 1 shall take all the parcels you speak of with me . I am your's , sincerely . JAMES WALLACE . '

On the morning of the day when the baggage came on shore , pait of it was searched by the Custom-house officers ; and the other part , they were tofd by the prisoner Learv , couicf not be searched , because he said his master , Colonel Morris , had the keys of the boxes , and he was going to the West Indies . The three prisoners seemed very careful least the baggage should be searched . The whole of it was then sent in a cart to Margate ; aud they walked with the person whom the cart belonged to , until they arrived at Margate . In the mean time Binns had gone to Deal ; in his way it was very probable that he met O'Connor by appointment , as the latter had walked out of thej . own of Whitstable on tbe Monday already mentioned ; and they both came to Margate about an hour after the other three prisoners had arrived there .
