1) приказать толпе разойтись (зачитав "закон против мятежа") [the Riot Act - закон об охране общественного спокойствия и порядка; действует с 1715 г.]Warden Hare pulled the Riot Act from his pocket.

O'Hara, ‘Appointment in Samarra’, ch. VI) — Фрэни жалела немного, что так все получилось, но Ал думал, что и это притворство.
It was amazing what a happy, pleased, loving act they could put on out in public - and then to see it fall off of both of them to the floor like a discarded overcoat the minute they got home and were alone. (J. Jones, ‘Some Came Running’, book V, ch. LXXI) — Удивительно, какой довольной, счастливой и любящей парой казались они на людях, и как все менялось дома: когда захлопывалась входная дверь и они оставались одни, личина, носимая ими, спадала, они сбрасывали ее вместе с пальто.
‘The truth is,’ he went on, desperately, ‘That it is highly overrated: "It puts on a big act of being sophisticated and cosmopolitan, but at heart it's unalterably provincial."’ (I. Shaw, ‘The Young Lions’, ch. 6) — - Дело в том, - в отчаянии продолжал Ной, - что Нью-Йорк здорово переоценивают. Он похож на провинциала, который лезет из кожи вон, стараясь казаться человеком искушенным и космополитом. Но на самом-то деле он чудовищно провинциален.
