REGLEMENT DU ROY qui subordonne les Commissaires des Classes à ceux de la Marine.
A la fin: Fait à Versailles le quatorzième Décembre 1705. 8 pages. 22x156 Cm. Broché couverture de l'époque en papier décoré. Déchirure sur la deuxième couverture. Petits manques angulaires. Trace de mouillure claire en bas de page. Les Commissaires des Classes sont des écrivains de la marine qui sont nommés par le roi qui leur délivre un brevet. Ce brevet est enregistré par le bureau du contrôle de la marine du lieu où l'écrivain a été nommé. Les tâches de l'écrivain consistent à prendre note de tout: compter les matériaux de construction les deniers les hommes et les marchandises. Ils dressent des rôles qui sont mis en forme c'est-à-dire au propre afin d'être compilés dans des registres. Ces registres permettent de faire la synthèse de l'activité d'un bureau ou d'un détail du port. Ce travail d'écriture représente une masse considérable d'efforts: à une époque où la sauvegarde informatique et les photocopies sont impossibles.

Incisione in acciaio (foglio: mm. 140 x 220), databile del sec. XIX. Ritrae Girolamo Bonaparte (1784-1860) fratello minore di Napoleone. Contrammiraglio nella Marina Imperiale, ebbe vita sentimentale avventurosa, con 3 matrimoni: il 1°, poi annullato, con un'americana, il 2° con Caterina di Württemberg, che gli fruttò la nomina a re di Vestfalia, il 3° con una nobildonna italiana. Dopo la caduta del fratello si stabilì prima a Vienna, poi a Trieste e Roma, ma dopo il 1848 rientrò a Parigi, e grazie al nipote Luigi (futuro Napoleone III) fu reintegrato nel titolo e negli onori di principe imperiale.

(Navy Department) Dickerson, Mahlon
Autograph Letter Signed "Secy. Mahlon Dickerson" to Nicholas Biddle President of the Bank of the United States responding to Biddle's proposal to make funds available for Navy Pensions
Washington D.C. 1837. 1-1/2 pages pen and ink on paper. Folio. Old folds else fine. 1-1/2 pages pen and ink on paper. Folio. A chronicle of the short-lived Bank of the United States and its continued involvement in US Navy pensions. <br /> <br /> After the demise of the Second Bank of the United States in 1836 a result of the historical "Bank War" between US President Andrew Jackson and Bank President Nicholas Biddle Biddle attempted to resuscitate the institution as a commercial bank chartered by the State of Pennsylvania. The former bank's stock holders except the US government voted to transfer the old bank's assets and liabilities to the new bank which made it difficult to disentangle the dealings of the defunct bank with the newly state-chartered bank. This letter from Secretary of the Navy Mahlon Dickerson discusses arrangements for The Bank of the United States to fund Navy Pensions and is an example of it's continued involvement with the US Government after the Second Bank of the United States charter had expired. Reading in part: <br /> <br /> "I have received your letter of the 19th inst. and agree to the arrangement you propose that for the funds you may place at the disposal of this department for the payment of Navy Pensions credit shall be given on the Bond from the Bank of the United States chartered by the Legislature of Pennsylvania to the United States."<br /> <br /> Written at the onset of the Panic of 1837 Biddle would fail to replicate the success he experienced as President of the Second Bank of the United States and resigned as President in 1839. The Bank of the Unites States failed in 1841. Biddle faced financial ruin and was arrested for fraud but was acquitted before his death in 1844. <br /> <br /> Born in Hanover Township New Jersey Mahlon Dickerson 1770-1853 was a cavalry veteran of the Whiskey Rebellion who would go on to be elected Governor of New Jersey serve as US Senator receive two appointments as Secretary of the Navy and be confirmed as a judge for the United States District Court of New Jersey. unknown

A late 16th-century manuscript listing of Admirals and Lord High Admirals of the British fleet from the reigns of Edward II to Elizabeth I. <br /> The manuscript comprises 115 entries each 6-10 lines in length with transcriptions of the letters patent associated with each appointment. It was compiled during the reorganization of the admiralty office by John Hawkins just 2 years after the English victory over the Spanish Armada. We locate three other copies of this document: two at the British Library in the Harliean collection 6843.30 and the Cottonian manuscripts collection and a third in the National Maritime Museum the latter two copies were extended at a later date into the early 17th century.<br /> Despite its title the manuscript opens with the appointments of Thomas de Coleton in 1264 during the reign of Henry III and William de Leiburn in 1286 during the reign of Edward I. The final entry is for Charles Howard appointed by Elizabeth I in 1585 and who several years later led the English to victory against the Spanish Armada. Provenance: Sir Thomas Phillipps; H.P.

In April he was moved to the Hampton Court one of four ships which on 6 January 1745 fell in with two French ships of the line off Ushant. Two of the English ships the Captain and the Sunderland parted company. The Hampton Court and Dreadnought continued the chase; but although Mostyn's ship came up with the French it could not engage without the assistance of the Dreadnought and the two Frenchmen got safely into Brest."<br /> <br /> Mostyn was brought up for court martial and acquitted but his conduct became an object of popular and official scorn -- this heavily critical pamphlet is usually attributed to Admiral Vernon. Goldsmith No. 8197 for W. Webb unknown

(Royal Navy) [O'Beirne, Thomas Lewis]
Considerations on the Principles of Naval Discipline and Naval Courts-martial; In which the Doctrines lately laid down in the House of Commons upon those subjects are examined and the conduct of the courts-martial on Admiral Keppel and Sir Hugh Palliser are compared
London: Printed for J. Almon and J. Debrett 1781. First edition. A2 B-2B4. 4 190 2 ad pp. Errata leaf follows title page. 1 vols. 8vo. Uncut in later drab wrappers chipped and torn lower wrapper especially. Title leaf soiled with abrasion costing four letters in first line. Some old folds and minor soiling bottom corner of last leaf crumpled. First edition. A2 B-2B4. 4 190 2 ad pp. Errata leaf follows title page. 1 vols. 8vo. Written by Thomas Lewis O'Beirne 1748-1823 the Anglican divine whose first publication was the sermon he preached "An excellent sermon preached in St. Paul's Church New-York" NY 1776 as chaplin in Lord Howe's fleet at St. Paul's Chapel in New York after the disastrous fire in New York City of September 21 1776 probably set by Patriot arsonists. Upon his return to England in 1779 O'Beirne wrote a defense of Howe in "A Candid and Impartial Narrative of the Transactions of the Fleet ." L. 1779 and became more and more allied with the Whig party.<br /> <br /> This is his defense of Admiral Keppel in the politically charged dispute with Sir Hugh Palliser and Lord Sandwich over their actions in the engagement with the French fleet off the coast of Brest in July 1778. Charges and counter-charges flew over that indecisive and costly encouter Kessel being accused "misconduct and neglect of duty" and of not having done enough to finish off the crippled French fleet. Indeed a claim was made at the time "that had the French been defeated at the time a diplomatic mission to America giving them the opportunity to abandon the French treaty would not have failed" DNB Palliser on the other hand was accused of neglecting to obey an order to come to the support of the rest of the fleet. The dispute ultimately resulted in court-martials of both men resulting in the acquittal of each although Palliser was censured and ruined while Keppel refused to serve under the current Ministry. <br /> <br /> "The whole episode had severely weakened the standing of the Navy. Keppel asked not be sent to sea under the current Ministry and so the Admiralty retired him which led to a general resignation by his naval supporters depriving the Navy of many able officers in the continuing war against America." - DNB<br /> <br /> The first edition of O'Beirne's account of the two court martials although well represented in institutions is rare on the market; and only one copy of the 2nd edition has appeared at auction over the last 30 years.
