The Marftial of the Diet being chofcn for two
rears, has also aright to lit in this Council, with
>ut taking any (hare in its resolves ; for the end
mly to call together the Diet, always exiitingin
;he following cafe ; Should he deem, from the
emergencies hereunder fpecified, the convocation
of the Diet absolutely neceflary, and. the King
refuting to do it, the Marshal is bound to iflue
his circular letters to all Nuncios and Senators,
adducing real motives forfuch meeting.
The cases demanding such convocation of the
Diet are tile following.
ift. In a prefiing necessity concerning the law
of the nation, and particularly in cafe of a neigh
bouring war.

Every resolution of this Council fliall be iff'ued
tinder the King's lignature, countersigned by one
of the Minilteis fitting therein ; and thusfigned,
ftiall be obeyed by all executive departments, ex
cept in cases expressly exempted by the present

Should all the members refufe their counter

go his opinion ; but if he should perfilt in it, the
Marshal of the Diet may demand the convocation
of the Diet ; and if the King will not, the Mar

Willing that the Council of Inspection (hould
be responsible to the nation for their actions, we
decree that, when these Minilters are denounced
and accused before the Diet (by the fpecia] Com
mittee appointed for examining their proceed
ings) of any tranfgreflion of positive law, they
are answerable with their persons and fortunes.
Such impeachments being determined by a Am
ple majority of votes, collected jointly from both
floufes, /hall be tried immediately by the com
mital tribunal, where the accused are to receive
their final judgment and punilhment, if found
guilty ; or to be honorably acquitted, on fuffici
cient proof of innocence.
In order to form a neceflary organization of
the Executive power, we eftabli/h hereby sepa
rate commilfions, connected with the above Coun

as efiablifhed by the present Diet, in every pala
tinate and dtftricfi, (hall depend on, and receive
all orders from the Council of lnfpe<2ion,in their
reipeiitive duties and occurrences.
