The distinction between sedition and treason consists in this ,
that though its ultimate object is a violation of the public peace ,
or at least such a course of measures as evidently engenders it ,
yet it does not aim at direct and open violence against the laws ,
or the subversion of the constitution .

In the Scotch law ,
sedition is either verbal or real .
Verbal is inferred from the uttering of words tending to create discord between the king and his people ;
real sedition is generally committed by convocating together any considerable number of people ,
without lawful authority ,
under the pretence of redressing some public grievance ,
to the disturbing of the public peace .
