[GREAT BRITAIN PARLIAMENT]
TRANSPORTATION An Act for the effectual Transportation of Felons and other Offenders ; and to authorize the Removal of Prisoners in certain Cases ; and for other Purposes therein mentioned.
Drop-head title with coat of arms at head of text. London : Printed by Charles Eyre and William Strahan 1784. Foolscap folio 320 x 200 mm disbound pp 907-919 1 blank 1 colophon 1 blank; first leaf with toning to bottom margin else a fine copy. The Transportation etc. Act 1784 24 Geo. 3 c. 56 was an important piece of legislation fundamental to the establishment of a penal colony in New South Wales and subsequently Van Diemen's Land governed by New South Wales 1803-1825. 'The outbreak of the American Revolutionary War 1775-1783 halted transportation to America. Parliament claimed that ""the transportation of convicts to his Majesty's colonies and plantations in America . is found to be attended with various inconveniences particularly by depriving this kingdom of many subjects whose labour might be useful to the community and who by proper care and correction might be reclaimed from their evil course""; they then passed ""An act to authorize . the punishment by hard labour of offenders who for certain crimes are or shall become liable to be transported to any of his Majesty's colonies and plantations."" For the ensuing decade men were instead sentenced to hard labour and women were imprisoned. Finding alternative locations to send convicts was not easy and the act was extended twice by the Criminal Law Act 1778 18 Geo. 3 c. 62 and the Criminal Law Act 1779 19 Geo. 3 c. 54. This resulted in a 1779 inquiry by a Parliamentary Committee on the entire subject of transportation and punishment; initially the Penitentiary Act was passed introducing a policy of state prisons as a measure to reform the system of overcrowded prison hulks that had developed but no prisons were ever built as a result of the act. The Transportation etc. Act 1784 24 Geo. 3 c. 56 and the Transportation etc. Act 1785 25 Geo. 3 c. 46 also resulted to help alleviate overcrowding. Both acts empowered the Crown to appoint certain places within his dominions or outside them as the destination for transported criminals; the acts would move convicts around the country as needed for labour or where they could be utilized and accommodated. The overcrowding situation and the resumption of transportation would be initially resolved by Orders in Council on 6 December 1786 by the decision to establish a penal colony in New South Wales on land previously claimed for Britain in 1770 but as yet not settled by Britain or any other European power. The British policy toward Australia specifically for use as a penal colony within their overall plans to populate and colonise the continent would differentiate it from America where the use of convicts was only a minor adjunct to its overall policy.'

[GREENLAND WHALE FISHERY, British Acts of Parliament]
A series of 12 British Acts of Parliament concerning whaling mostly in Greenland and the Davis Strait
London: John Baskett and others printers 1818. 12 works folio. 12 1/2 x 8 inches and smaller. Disbound or stitched<br/> <br/> A fascinating series spanning the whole of the period when whaling was carried out on a successful commercial basis in the waters off Greenland.<br/> <br/> After an abortive start by the South Sea Company between 1724 and 1732 the British whaling fleet operated off Greenland and the Davis Strait throughout the remainder of the 18th century with increasing success due to a large degree to the succession of bounties granted to ship owners by the British Government. The present selection of acts of parliament includes a number concerning the bounty: the first dated 16th January 1732 makes law "that a Bounty will be paid on the Return of every Ship of 200 tons and over imployed by His Majesty's Subjects in the Whale Fishery". For the bounty to be paid certain stringent criteria had to be met; these increased as the century progressed. By the time of the last Act in the present group March 1818 the Greenland whalers were reporting declining catches and were already beginning to turn their attention to other whaling grounds i.e. largely in the Pacific and Antarctic. This group offers and interesting series of snapshots of the industry during its most productive century. The acts comprise: 1. An Act for encouraging the Greenland Fishery. 1732. Stitched later wrappers. Exemption from duty extended for a nine year period. 2. An Act for the further Encouragment of the Whale Fishery carried on by His Majesty's British Subjects. 1733. Stitched later wrappers. The introduction of a bounty for ships over 200 tons. 3. An Act for continuing the several Laws therein mentioned . including granting a further Bounty for all Ships employed in the Whale Fishery during the present War; for exempting Harponers and others . from being impressed. No date but circa 1750. Spine reinforced. The bounty raised by a third other measures to help the trade. 4. An Act for granting a additional Bounty on Ships employed in the Greenland and Whale Fishery for a limited time. No adte but circa 1761. Disbound. The increased bounty confirmed for another five years. 5.An Act for further continuing several Acts . for the Encouragement of the Whale Fishery. 1768. Stitched. 6. An Act for the better Support and Establishment of the Greenland and Whale Fishery. 1771. Stitched. The rules about the amount of bounty to be paid has changed with additional laws concerning vessels of American origin exemption from duty extended to include the Gulf of St. Lawrence certain members of a whaler's crew to be exempt from being pressed into service in the Royal Navy etc. 7.An Act to explain and amend Two Acts made . with respect to the Limits of the Greenland Seas and Davis's Streights . and to enlarge the Time for the Return of the Vessels employed in the Whale Fisheries. 1780. Stitched. 8. An Act for granting an additional Bounty on Ships employed in the Greenland and Whale Fishery for a limited Time. 1782. Disbound. The bounty retained for a further five years. 9. An Act for allowing Vessels employed in the Greenland Whale Fishery to complete their full Number of Men at certain Ports for the Present Season. 1805. Spine strengthened. Whaling ships permitted to call in to ports in Scotland the Orkneys and the Shetland Islands to find men to complete their crews. 10. An Act for allowing until the Signature of Preliminary Articles of Peace Vessels . to complete their full Number of Men at certain ports. 1806. Spine strenghtened. An extension of the previous act. 11. An Act to revive and continue for five years several Laws. 1815. Strengthened spine. Several prvious acts re-confirmed. 12. An Act to amend an Act . so far as it relates to the Oaths thereby required. 1818. Unbound. Concerns the oaths required from owners/captains before the bounty due would be released to them.

GLORIOUS REVOLUTION / ABDICATION OF JAMES II. The debate at large between the House of Lords and House of Commons . anno 1688
London: Printed for J. Wickins; and to be sold by the Booksellers of London and Westminster 1695. FIRST EDITION. Hardcover. Very good. Octavo. COLLATION: A-B4 C-F8 G-Q4 COMPLETE. 2 19-176 pp. Attractive half calf antique marbled boards red morocco label gilt compartments gilt with small tools. ¶ FIRST EDITION of this important collection of Parliamentary debates providing original and valuable documentation of the constitutional crisis that ensued during the Glorious Revolution of 1688. James II of England a.k.a. James VII of Scotland while fleeing to France dropped the Great Seal of the Realm into the Thames. In Parliament the question was discussed whether he had forfeited the throne or had abdicated. The present volume offers detailed arguments for the both but ultimately the latter designation was agreed upon and in a full assembly of the Lords and Commons it was resolved in spite of James's protest "that King James II having endeavored to subvert the constitution of the kingdom by breaking the original contract between king and people and by the advice of Jesuits and other wicked persons having violated the fundamental laws and having withdrawn himself out of this kingdom has abdicated the government and that the throne is thereby vacant." The Scottish parliament pronounced a decree of forfeiture and deposition. ¶ In our copy the imprint reads "and to be sold" in another issue the imprint reads "and sold". ¶ References: Wing 2nd ed.

[OPENING OF PARLIAMENT].
DESCRIPTIVE PANORAMIC VIEW OF THE OPENING OF PARLIAMENT BY HER MAJESTY.
<i>Wood-engraved single sheet panorama in four strips 565 x 450 mm crudely coloured and folded with title at top left some splitting to joints; </i><i>in the original green publisher's wrapper titled in black lower wrapper lacking some chipping to edges and lightly dust-soiled but a remarkable survival nonetheless.</i><br /><i><br /></i>Rare panorama depicting the State Opening of Parliament likely sold on the day to crowds lining the procession route. The panorama itself presented as four strips one above the other on a single sheet has been printed from the same blocks as another we have seen by T. Goode but with new references set beneath the panorama image see below.<br /><i><br /></i>The procession advances from right to left with the Queen accompanied by Prince Albert and captioned where appropriate: 'Entrance to Parliament House'; 'Beefeaters'; 'Carriage of the Prime Minister'; 'Herald'; 'Her Majesty's Spokeman's Carriage'; 'Officer of the Life Guardsmen'; 'Queen's Carriage'; 'Life Guardsmen'; and 'Lord John Russell's Carriage.' The procession advances from r. to l. The Queen is accompanied by Prince Albert. Earlier the block for 'Beefeaters' had been used for T. Goode's 'Panorama of the Lord Mayor's Show'; as too had the block for 'Her Majesty's Spokesman's Carriage' previously uncaptioned and 'Lord John Russell's Carriage' previously 'The Recorder in his Carriage' explaining why Lord Russell seems to be holding a mace. It would be the Horse Guards who would have taken part in the procession; the beefeaters would have been awaiting the monarch in the House of Lords. <br /><i><br /></i>It is curious to note that the 'Entrance to Parliament House' bears no resemblance to the Royal Entrance in Victoria Tower and instead looks more like the Soane entrance but that was destroyed in the fire of 1838 so perhaps more evidence of earlier blocks being repurposed.<br /><i><br /></i>In the London directories William Sutton's name replaces Georgina Duggan's at 2 Bartlett's Passage in 1860. The Prime Minister at the time was Palmerston and Lord John Russell was Foreign Secretary. The panorama also represents one of the final depictions of Queen Victoria accompanied by Prince Albert who died in 1861.<br /><br />Not in OCLC. W. Sutton, (late G. Duggan,) 2, Bartlett’s Passage, Bartlett’s Buidlings, Holborn, W.C.

[Parlement - Paris]
Remonstrances faictes au roy de France par Messieurs de la Court de Parlement de Paris sur la publication de l’Edict du moys de Janvier. Tout Royaume divisé à lencontre de soymesme sera desolé. S Màtthieu. 12
Cambray: Nicolas Lombard 1562. First edition. Papered spine. With contemporary underlines throughout and occasional marginal notes in ink. Upper outer corners stained and chipped throughout first leaves with small loss. Closed tear on the title page not affecting the text. Overall in very good condition. First edition. Papered spine. ff. 14 2 blank. Sign.: A–D4 D3–4 blank. First edition of this scarce and important document of the French Wars of Religion.<p><br /> <br /> A protest against the Edict of Toleration also known as the Edict of January or Saint-Germain which was issued by the French Crown on January 17 1562 after a long series of repressive measures against the Protestant Huguenots in order to restore peace in the kingdom torn by civil and religious dissensions. <p><br /> <br /> The registration process of the edict led to the bitterest legislative struggles of the century between the Parlement and the Crown. After a vote on 7 February the Parlement very Catholic refused to verify or publish the edict and on 12 February a remonstrance the present publication was drawn up and sent to the Court. Eventually the Parlement had to capitulate and the edict was registered on March 6 five days after the Massacre of Vassy which triggered the first of the series of eight civil wars lasting some thirsty-six years in France the Wars of Religion. <p><br /> <br /> The Edict of Tolerance remained a reference for the Huguenots in the later negotiations between them and the royal power and became the foundation of the subsequent toleration edicts such as the Edict of Ambroise the resolution of the first war in 1563 and the Edict of Nantes which marked the end of the period of the French Wars of Religion in 1598.<br /> Seemingly two different editions 16- and 24-leaves were published by Lombard in 1562. Due to their substantial similarities the presence or lack of the last blank leaves and the peculiar dating “mil cinq cens soixante & un†the bibliographies list these editions under at least six different entries dated 1561 or 1562 later editions also by Lombard appeared in 1565 and 1566.<p><br /> <br /> USTC 6319 2 copies: Nîmes - Bibliothèque Carré d’art; Paris - Bibliothèque Mazarine or 17432 1 copy: La Rochelle- Bibliothèque municipale<br /> Literature: Keller A.-C. 1952.

[Parlement de Bordeaux] Charles de Boucheron, seigneur des Manoux, avocat en la cour, et juge de la ville et châtellenie de Maymac (Corrèze) ; Jean-Christophe Dapeyron, conseiller du Roy, lieutenant-maire perpétuel de la ville de Maymac [il est alors procureur postulant].
Extrait du registre des présentations du parlement du 16 janvier 1736.
Document sur peau de vélin, 16*34cm, daté du 17 décembre 1736, mentionnant notamment M. Malère, représentant du demandeur Charles de Boucheron. Ce dernier avait semble-t-il assigné à comparaître le procureur postulant. Le document est signé Rattier, probablement la personne qui l'a copié. La famille de Boucheron est une famille de Maymac dont on trouve diverses traces : un curé, Léger de Boucheron, Jacques et Charles, avocats, etc. Charles de Boucheron est aussi connu pour le procès qu'il fit contre l'abbaye de Maymac entre 1727 et 1753.
