Order on the part of the Lowlanders they have to look after their treasury, and for this it is necessary that the abuses of some of the holy unions and the rights of the crown should not destroy them. 23. It is truly unjust that what is acquired and retained from the inestimable treasury of the Republic of Poland should be held solely on the basis of the privatorum commodum cedere, expedit reipublicae so that the Smolensk committee ') rite et ordine should be held to which at least two commissioners from the Crown sine eiceptione absentia alteriusutriusque cum salario de publico they are to be marked. 24. To strive for imminentibus bellis is always a praiseworthy and pious thing among Christian nations, and since ex vi pactorum regarding eternal peace with the Swedes durantibus indutiis is to be treated, we wish that Mr. Prudentia et authoritate insignes commissioners from both the Senate and the knights' circle from both nations were appointed to the treaties, with which instructions were agreed at the Sejm and the common treasury hall was to be marked. And since sub clipeo is happy, according to the old novel, pacis negotium succedere, in advance, in case of insufficient treaties on the planning of war there, it is necessary to say: 26. Commutations, fiefs, all nobility not proposed at the sejmiks, constitutions, any burdens imposed on the goods of the Republic of Poland, and articles or methods that would have a prae se ferre nobilitatis speciem and give an opportunity to a change of praesentis Reipublicae status, should in no way be allowed to pp. afterword. 26. We have heard from the commissioners appointed at the Sejm of one thousand six hundred and thirty-eight that the debt of Prince IM and de Croye in the counties of Bittom and Lemburg has already been discharged, but if it is necessary, we will not refuse another commission to recognize the validity of this commission. 27. In order for the miners to decide that the small coin may be made of pure silver, commissioners iurati ex utroque ordine cum absoluta facultate, at most ten people, are to be appointed at the Sejm, and after such a decision, slachta possessata ex publico salariati and sworn members, iuxta rotham at the Sejm concipiendam, who would supervise the wardains, are to be appointed. Having said that, if the improvement of the mintage were to be successful, good coin would not be exported from the crown states, so we need to know how to eliminate the bad coin inire rationes. 28. This is why people's difficulties increase when the Sejms decree tribunals and abolish the Sejm tribunals; therefore, by pursuing this, they will perceive pp. deputies, that the Sejm should not abolish tribunal decrees per serias controversias nullo modo. The Tribunal, especially Mr. clergy decrees at the court inter bona mere regalia of convicts, so that they do not accept and limites their jurisdiction allowed non excedent. And in judging the register, they should behave according to the decision at the beginning of the order. However, there is no decree in genere, iura legis sapientia according to the constitution of 1627*) ferre tribunal. 29. Despite the law and pernicioso exemplo, it happens in tribunals that criminal cases in actiones civiles or paenales transform. This is what they are supposed to do. afterwords, that this metamorphosis should not occur later, but according to the old laws criminalia criminaliter was tried. Tribunals are not supposed to summon arrests at night, except to adjudicate a case if it started before evening. Deputies also to the tribunals, deputies to the Sejm, should not be elected only aetate legitima, because some of them judge de capite et fama civiura, and others decernunt about the Republic. 30. The failure to carry out execution is a common complaint among almost all citizens of the Crown, so that leniency could be given to the complainants, Messrs. will try. MPs, so that there is sufficient persuasion, as Messrs. starostas are to act in these executions. 31. Offices reduced according to laws and statutes are not to be reduced, and in which there is an election, let them remain according to the old custom; in addition, if anyone dares to ask for a privilege before becoming a candidate, ipso facto there is to be no capax of this office. 32. In councils, courts of all kinds and in senatus consultis, to be heard by J. kr. Mć in toto, according to the pacta conventa, he kept asking for Mr. MPs, and that between Messrs. senators vary
