VPon Saterday last , being the 12 Day of this instant month of August , his Majesty set forth another Proclamation wherin he expresseth his Royall intention to set up his Standard on Monday ne●t in some convenient place which His Majestie shall make choise of , commanding all his loving Subjects , that will aid and assist him , to repair thither ; proclaiming all those that shall refuse to obey the Commission of Array to be Traytors , and using many great threatning words against them ; and doth thereby appoint and ordain the Earl of Cumberland Generall , for the rainng of Forces both of Horse and Foot in the Northe●● Parts .

Wherupon divers Gentlemen of good quality , being well affected to the King and Parliament , assembled themselves together in Yorke-shire aforesaid , and thought fit to send the Proclamation with a full Relation of the State of the Countrey to the Parliament .

Therupon they framed a Letter , and inclosed the Proclamation therein , and ●e●t it away Post .

Which Letter was read in the House on Wednesday els● 17. of this instant mo●th of August ; the effect whereof amongst div●rs other things , was as followeth , viz.

That His Majesties Army doth not consist of above four thousand Horse and Foot , and many of the Horses very unserviceable , and the men the very ●umme of the Countrey , being for the greatest leud and idle persons , that were gathered up and down the Countreyes , by beating of Drummes ; And that a great part of the Trayned Bands of that County , that refused to serve themselves , or lend their Arms ; had them violently taken from them by the Cavaleers , who had plundred many great Houses of that County , breaking open Trunks , Chests , and taking all that th●y could find therein , with many more Out-rages , and inhumane Acts , which they daily commit against those that stands well affected to the Parliament . They have also plundered Sir Philip Stapletons house , and Mr. Marwoods .

But on Wednesday last , his Goods and Plate being taken from him , and threatned to kill hi● wife , to make her confesse where her husband was , saying , they would kill all such Puritane Round heads , &c.

Wherupon the said Gentlemen thought good to present certain propositions to the Parliament , for the good and safety of their Country and Estates , which were to this effect , viz.

I. That the Parliament would bee pleased to make an Order that the Cavaleers should not plunder and spoile men of their Goods , and in case they should be plundered , and robbed thereof , that preparatton might bee made unto them .

II . That such a Number of Armes and Ammunition might be sent unto Hull , that a sufficient store might be kept there , for the safetie and defence of that County .

III . That a considerable Number of Horse and Foot may be sent down into those parts , and that such persons whose Names were presented to the House , should be made Commanders and have power for the raising of Forces , wherby they may be able to defend themselves and their County , &c.

IV . That there may be constant Recourse , between the Parliament , and that country , by some Persons imployed f●●● the carrying of Letters too and fro that s●●●●y may more frequently understand the pleasure and proceedings of Parliamen● , which in re●ard of the remotenesse o● the place , ot●●●wise ●hey cannot doe .
