AN ACCOUNT OF THE PROCEEDINGS OF THE TWO HOUSES of PARLIAMENT now assembled in England and Scotland AND THE WHIGGS DECLARATION in Scotland Together with Argile's DECLARATION at large as it was published by him and his Accomplices Friday May 22. THE first thing the two Houses did was to resolve to return their most Humble and Hearty Thanks to His Majesty for his most gracious Speech and Declaration And the House of Commons taking into consideration that part of His Majesties Speech which relates to the Revenue Resolved Nemine Contradicente That the Revenue which was granted to the late King be setled on his present Majesty for his Life and that a Bill should be brought in for that purpose In the Afternoon the two Houses attended His Majesty in a Body in the Banquetting House at Whitehall to return their Thanks to His Majesty This day the House of Lords resolved to make the following Address to His Majesty His Majesty having graciously imparted to this House That he is informed that the late Earl of Argile attainted of Treason with divers other Rebels are Landed in Scotland and are in Actual Rebellion It is ordered by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament Assembled That this House do wait upon His Majesty at Five a Clock this afternoon in the Banquetting House at Whitehall to give his Majesty their humble thanks for having imparted the same to this House And do humbly offer to assist his Majesty with their Lives and Fortunes against the said Rebels and all other his Ene●ies whatsoever The House of Commons likewise after Reading of Argiles Declaration mentioned in his Majesties Speech Resolved Nemine Contradicente That this House will stand by and assist his Majesty with their Lives and Fortunes against Archibald Campbel the pretended Earl of Argil● and his Ad●erents and all Rebels and Traytors and all others whatsoever that shall assist him or any of them And that this House will in a body attend his Majesty with this Vote And this afternoon the two Houses accordingly attended his Majesty severally in the Banquetting House with the said Addresses and Votes The Bill for settling the Revenue on his Majesty for his Life was this day Read the first time and is to be Read again on Momday next Edinbugh May 9. Yesterday there passed two Acts in Parliament The one declaring That whereas the obstinacy of the Fanatical party notwithstanding all the Laws formerly made against them do pe●severe to keep their House and Field Conventicles which are the Nurseries and Rendevouzes of Rebellion Therefore his Majesty with consent of his Estates in Parliament doth Statute and Ordain that all such as shall hereafter Preach at such Fanatical House or Field Conventicles as also such as shall be present as Hearers at Field Conventicles shall be punished by Death and Confiscation of their Goods The other declaring That the giving or taking the National Covenant as explained in the Year 1638 or of the League and Covenant so commonly called or writing in defence thereof or owning of them as lawful or obligatory on themselves or others shall infer the Crime and Pains of Treason Edinburgh May 13 This day the Parliament passed the following Act. An Act and Offer of a new Supply to His Majesty THE Estates of Parliament calling to mind the many great Blessings they have and do enjoy under the protection of the Royal Government and especially by the many deliverances from the Rebellious Insutrections and des●gns of Phanatical Traitors from whom they could expect no less than confusion in Religion Oppression in their Estates and Cruelty against their Persons and Familes And that the Terror of His Majesties Forces hath been very instrumental for procuring our present Security But considering that not only these Enemies continue their inveterate hatred against King and People but that their frequent disappointments have heightned their malice to despair And that the present Forces may be too few to undergo all the Fatigue which His Majesties Service or the protection of the Country doth require And to demonstrate to all Seditious men that this Nation is resolved to bestow all they have in the Kings Service rather than to be exposed to the least of their Insults Do therefore for themselves the Nation represented by them make a hearty and dutiful offer to His Majesty of Two hundred 16 thousand pounds yearly payable at two Terms viz. Whitsonday and Mertimas each year beginning at Whitsonday next 1685. and so forth termly and that over and besides the five Months Cesse already imposed on this Kingdom by the third Act of Parliament 1681. whereby there will be four Months Cesse payable at each Term hereafter beginning at Whitsonday next 1685. And as a farther Evidence of their entire affection to the Sacr●d Person of his present Majesty they humbly and heartily offer a continuation and prorogation of the said four Months Cesse termly from the said Term of Whitsonday 1685 inclu●●ve during all the Terms of His Majesties life time which God Almighty long preserve that being the greatest of our e●●●●ly wishes as it is the chief of our Temporal Felicity and Glory Edinburgh May 18.
