1910Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Paperback. Wrapper is repaired. Tape on spine. Chipped on last page. Other wise a good copy. Folio. (40 x 28 cm). In Ottoman script. 72 p., 14 cedvels (schemes) and [14] p. color statistics. Meclis-i Mebûsân Birinci devre 1325-1326 içtimai. 326 senesi muâzene-i umûmîsi hakkinda [.] kaleme alinan esbâb-i mûcibe mazbata-yi umûmîsi. Meclis-i Mebûsân (The Chamber of Deputies) of the Ottoman Empire was the lower house of the General Assembly, the Ottoman Parliament. Unlike to the upper house, the Senate, the members of the Chamber of Deputies were elected by the general Ottoman populace, although suffrage was limited to males of a certain financial standing, among other restrictions that varied over the Chamber's lifetime. The Second Constitutional Era of the Ottoman Empire began shortly after Abdul Hamid II was forced to restore the constitutional monarchy after the 1908 Young Turk Revolution. The period established many political groups and parties. Ahmet Riza became the first President of the Chamber in 1908. An amendment in 1909 to the original 1876 constitution resulted in the Chamber gaining more true political power at the expense of the non-democratically elected Senate and the Sultan. A series of elections during this period resulted in the gradual ascendance of the Committee of Union and Progress's (CUP) domination in politics. The second largest party Liberal Unionist Party (LU) (Turkish: Hürriyet ve Itilâf) was in fact a coalition of parties led by Prince Sabahaddin. This is a rare protocol register book of Meclis-i Mebûsân. First and Only Edition. Not in Özege.; Not in OCLC.

ref. 6867London 1733. Sheets" ; 37 x 24 cm.Ten pages printed on a total of the six leaves of three folio bifoliums leaf dimensions roughly 40.5 x 25 cm. The first part apparently intended to fold around the others is unpaginated and printed on the recto of the first leaf and the verso of the last leaf of the bifolium. Each page consists of a list divided into three columns of small print giving details of the vote with the names of the members their constituencies and a key revealing biographical information e.g. 'Privy-Counsellors' sic and 'for and against Maintaining the Hessian Troops'. The first section is aged and with several closed tears and with some loss resulting in damage to three words. The second and third sections are in better condition though creased and on aged paper and stitched together and paginated 3-10. Pp.3-6 consist of the section entitled 'The Lords Protest' reporting a debate on the Bill in the House of Lords on 23 February 1732. Pp.7-10 carry the poem with pp.9-10 consisting of 'Britannia Excisa: Britain Excis'd. Part II. Tune of Packington's Pound.' At the head of p.7 is a sensational engraving 11.5 x 16.5 cm of a five-headed monster pulling a coach in which a figure Walpole sits complacently. The monster representing the bill flings goods this way and that with its mouths while two figures on foot run for cover. The first part of the poem begins 'Folks talk of Supplies To be rais'd by Excise Old Caleb is bloodily nettl'd;'. The first stanza of the second part reads 'Ye Knaves and ye Fools ye Maids Widows and Wives Come cast away Care and rejoice all your Lives; For since England was England I dare boldly say There ne'er was such Cause for a Thanksgiving Day; For if we're but wise And vote for the Excise Sir Blue-S--ing Walpole 'Sir Blue String' alluding to the ribbon of his Order of the Garter declares as you know he ne'er lies! He'll dismiss the whole Custom-House rascally Crew And fix in each Town an Excise-man or two.'

ref. 194101834. . 21pp. 4to. On six loose bifoliums. In good condition lightly aged and worn. Incomplete: paginated 23 to 32 the last a mistake for 33. The manuscript reproduces exactly with omissions the text on pp.79-94 of the publication 'Debates in the House of Commons on a Resolution Preparatory to the Introduction and in the House of Lords on the Motion for the Second Reading of the Bill for Removing the Civil Disabilities of the Jews … Reprinted from the Mirror of Parliament at the request of the Committee of the Jewish Association for obtaining Civil Rights and Privileges' London: Printed for the Proprietors of “The Mirror of Parliament” 3 Abingdon-street Westminster 1934. There are a couple of indications of a foreign origin: first the style of writing with the personal pronoun appearing throughout as a small i and the numbering having a foreign feel; second a the style of printing of a shelfmark 'Va III. - 4.' on a slip of paper on the last leaf. The shelfmark is accompanied by a circular stamp in black ink containing the acronym 'BMPF'. It may be that the manuscript was transcribed from the newspaper in order to provide an interested foreign party with an account of the debate before publication in book form. [ 1834. ] unknown

Bifolium. 34 lines of text in a particularly difficult hand.

The distance is 40 miles & the time allowed 3h 53m which is just about what would be required.' After a paragraph discussing the '2d & 3d tables' he writes: 'I dont know where you have got these Tables from but in the Post Office Directory from which I supplied the list & rates no Famouth mail was given only one to Exeter & another through Exeter to Devonport. Please see my remarks at the bottom of the table.' He concludes: 'Would it not be interesting to the public especially now at the jubilee of the penny post to insert a Table giving the rates of postage in olden days If so I have a copy of "Pattersons sic roads" which gives one & which I could sent to you to be copied.' PROOF: 3pp. 12mo. Bifolium. The first page in two columns is headed '1837. Scotch Mails. DOWN.' The second page is headed '1837. Irish Mails. DOWN'.

ref. 243901 April 1815. Taunton Somerset. See his entry in the Oxford DNB. At the time of writing a year and a half before his death Horner was Member of Parliament for St. Mawes in Cornwall. 1p 4to. Eighteen lines neatly written. Addressed to ‘My dear Harrison’ and signed ‘Fra Horner.’ In good condition lightly aged with negligible remnants of windowpane mount adhering at edges of blank reverse. Folded for postage. He has received both of Harrison’s letters and is ‘particularly obliged’ to him for ‘sending the copy of Stephen’s communication. The omission is much to be expected to which the escape of the convicted slave-dealers is owing; but it is very important that we should be if possible by an official communication of the opinion of the Attorney General to state to the Subscribers the real grounds of the pardon granted against these men. When it is properly explained the matter throws new disgrace upon Thorpe.’ He has not seen the third edition of Thorpe’s book ‘nor the notice with which he has there honored me’ and he begins to feel ‘very anxious about the report to be made to the General Assembly’. He ends with details of his return to London. Note: He is referring presumably to the trials of the Slave Traders Samuel Samo Joseph Peters and William Tufft slave traders and "A letter to William Wilberforce Esq. M.P. vice president of the African Institution : containing remarks on the reports of the Sierra Leone Company and African Institution" pubd 1815Slave Trade 1 April 1815. Taunton [Somerset]. unknown
