ROYAL MINT, SEPTEMBER, 1823. .7% , It MUSIIET begs L'ave to state, that he ha- IIL lately obtzined a Patent for an improved Manufacture of SHEATHING COPPER. The investigation which led to this measure he undertook at su2,ge4tion of the Navy Board ;—who had represented the ins rovemtet of Sheathing Copper as an object of the deepest interest tv the Britil Navy, and to shipping iu general. The subject was of so much importance that a Council of the lieval Society was requested to investigate the causes of the rapid decay of Copper Sheathing. Air. .lu4iet thinks that he has succeeded in manufacturing a species of Copper capable, for a very lengthened period, of with standing this decay:—his Patent Copper being distinguished by uniformity of strength and durability throughout its whole texture; so that the partial destruction and the rapid and irregilar wear, so renr.rkably exhibited by Sheathing manufactured iu the ordinary manner, are thus provided against. The following facts justify this statement. The Navy Lund supplied the Patentee with a specimen of Cop per frcm the bottom of the Batavia, a ship of war, taken from the 11..:ch in the year 1798. The surface of this Sheathing was smooth uniform, and on comparing the centre of the sheet with the euge which had no: been in contact with the water, it was found, that after the wear and :ear of twenty-five years it had lost about 42 per Cent. This copper contained a small portion of tin. Ann liter specimen of Sheathing was obtained front the bottom of the Plymouth Yacht, which was coppered In I 79ii. The wear of this copper was equally uniform with the above, and its loss was in the course of twenty-seven years found to be only 8 per Cent.' This specimen contained a portion of zinc. Thus it is evident, that whatever the causes may be which destroy ordinary Sheathing, they had comparatively little effect in the cases here specified, It has been by alloying copper with small portions of tits and zinc, that the Patentee has succeeded in obtaining a metal duct-1 dedly superior to common copper : and since by his :node of ueat ins it, the strength a.:31 durability of the Patent Sheathing is rea t:tred unifot tn, the conclusion is justifiable, that it is calci.lated to resit destruction, at least equally with the spcciate.is above 'mentioned. In confirmation of this opinion, several vessels sheathed with the P-tent Metal have returned to the River 'Matsui from the West :its, after one, two, and three voyages, and the Asia from Cal *flee one voyage, all exhibiting the copper, upon their re s., ective bottoms, as smooth and uniform in its surface, and as clean, as when it was first put on. This appearance, it may be observed, formed the chief characteristic of the Copper upon the bottom of the Plymouth Yacht. The• Patent Copper, besides, has been used at Liverpool, to a considerable extent, and, as far as the trial has gone, to the entire satisfaction of the purchasers. It must be obvious to the consumers of copper, if Mr. !bushel's Patent Copper possesses the darability of the copper of the Bata via or the Plymouth Yacht, that the weight of old topper (inde pendent of the advantage of ovate; durability) taken from the ship's bottom, will more than indemnify the purchaser for the ex tra price per pound. In a comparative trial of common and Patent Copper in sea water, Mr. Blushet found that the Patent lost in the same given time 25 per Cent. less weight than the common copper. Mr. Musket's Patent Copper is manufactured by the house of Messrs. Williams, Pascoe and Win. Grenfell and Co. Castle Bay nard, Thames-street, and sold at id. per lb. above the price of corn- 1 mon Sheathing Copper,by them, and by Mr. Samuel Taylor, their Agent, in Liverpool ; by Christopher Pope and Co. Bristol; by Mr. Benjamin BuUocke, Devonport ; and by Mr. Henry Marshall, Newcastk. Mr. Musket will be glad to wait upon any Ship-owner and ex plain fultf his reasons for believing in the superiority of his im proved Patent Sheathing. . - MANCIIMITED. MARCH 26, 1825. Case of WM.

BY THE KING.—A PROCLAMATION. Gnomic, R. Whereas his Majesty being at peace with all the Powers and States of Europe and of America, has 're peatedly declared his Royal determination to maintain a strict and impartial neutrality in the different contests in which certain of those Powers and States are engaged: And whereas the commission of acts of hostility by individttal subjects of his Majesty against any Power or State, or against the persons and properties of the subjects of any Power or State, which being at peace with his blajesty is at. the same time engaged in a contest, with respect to which his Majesty has declared his determination to be neutral, is calculated to bring into question the sincerity of his Majesty's declarations: And whereas, if his Majesty's subjects cannot be effectually restrained from such unwarranted .commis sign of acts of hostility, it may be justly apprehended that the Governments aggrieved thereby might be unable, on their part, to restrain their subjects from rcommitting a-ts of.violence upon the persons and pro petty of unoffending subjects of his Majesty : And whereas the Ortoinan Porte, a Power at peace with his Majesty, is and has been for some ye:•rs past engaged in a contest with the Greeks, in which contest his Majesty has •bserved a strict and impartial neutrality. And whereas great numbers of his Majesty's loyal subjects reside and carry on a beneficial commerce, and possess establishments and enjoy privileges within the dominions of the Ottoman Porte, protected by the faith of treaties between his Majesty and that Power: And whereas his Majesty has received recent and undoubted information, that a:tempts are now making to induce certain of his Majesty's subjects to fit cot ships of war and privateers in the ports of his Majesty's kingdom, and to embark therein, for the purpose of carrying on, under the Greek flag, hostile operations against the• Ottoman Government, of capturing and destroying Turkish ships and property, and of commit ting depredations on the Coasts of the Turkish dominions: And whereas such hostile operations would be dirt ctly contrary to the provisions of the Act passed in the fifty-ninth year of the reign of his late Majesty, entitled " An Act tt prevent the enlisting or engagement of his Majesty's subjects to serve in a foreign service, and the fitting out or equipping, in his Majesty's dominions, vessels for warlike purposes, ss ithout his Majesty'► license," in which it is, amongst other things, enacted, 44 that if any natural-born subject of his Majesty, his heirs, or successors, without the leave or license of his Majesty, his heirs or successors, for that purpose first had and obtained under the sign manual of his Majetty, his heirs, or successors, or signified by order in Council, or by proclamation of Ifs Majesty, his heirs, or suc cessors, shall take or accept, or shall agree to take or accept, any military commission, or sh ill otherwise enter into the military service as a commissioned or non-commissioned officer, or shall enlist or enter him self to enlist, or shall agree to enlist or to enter himself to serve as a soldier, or to be employed, or shall serve in any warlike or military operation in the service of, or for, or under, or in aid of any foreign Prince, State, Potentate, colony, province, or part of any province or people, or of any person or persons exerci s ing, or as suming to exercise, the powers of government, in or over any foreign country, colony, province, or part of any province or people, either as an officer or soldier, or in any other military capacity; or if any natural born subject of his Majesty shall, without such leave or license as afores id, accept, or agree to take or accept, any commission, warrant, or appointment as an officer, or shall enlist or enter himself, or shall agree to enlist or enter himself to serve as a sailor or marine, or to be employed or engaged, or shall serve in and on board any ship or vessel of war, or in and on board any ship or vessel used, or fitted out, or equipped, or intended to be used for any warlike purpose in the service of, of for, or under, or in aid of any foreign Power, Prince, State, Potentate, colony, province, or part of any province or people, or of any person or persons ex ercising, or assuming to exercise the powers of Govern ment in or over any foreign country, colony, province, sar part of any province or people; or if any natural born subject of his Majesty shall, without such leave and license as aforesaid, engage, contract, or agree to go, or shall go to any foreign state, country, colony, I „ k r province, or part of any province, or to any place beyond the seas, with an intent, or in order to enlist of enter'himself to serve, or with intent to wive, in arty warlike or military operation whatever, whether by land or by sea, in the service of, or For, or under, or in aid of, arty foreign Prince, State, Potentate, colony, p:ovince, or part of any province or people, or in the service of, or for, or under, or in aid of, any perion or persons exercising, or assuming to exercise, the powers of government in or over any foreign country, colony, province, or part of any province or people, -either as an officer or sqldier, or in any other military capacity, or as an officer or sailor, or marine, in any such ship or vessel as aforesaid, although no en listing money, or pay, or reward shall have been, or shall be, in any or either of the cases aforesaid, mall);

And it is further enacted, " That if any person within any part of the United Kingdom, or in any part of his Majesty's dominions beyond the seas, shall, without the leave and license of his Majesty for that purpose first had and obtained, as aforesaid, equip, furnish, fit out, or arm, or attempt or endeavour to equip, furnish, fit out, or arm, or procure to be equip ped, furnished, fitted out, or armed, or shall knowingly aid, assist, or be concerned in the equipping, furnishing, fitting out, or arming any ship or vessel, with intent or in order that such ship or vessel shall be employed in the service of any foreign Prince, State, or Potentate, or of Ay foreign colony, province, or part of any pro vince or people, or of any person or persons exercising, or assuming to exercise, any powers of government in or over' any foreign state, colony, province, or part of any province or people, as a transport or store-ship, or with intent to cruise or commit hostilities against any Prince, State, or Potentate, or against the subjects or citizens of any Prince, State, or Potentate, or against the persons exercising, or assuming to ezercise,the powers of government in any colony, pro v ince or part of any pro vince or country, or against the inhabitants of any f neig3 colony, province, or part of any province or country, with whom 'his Majesty shall not then be at war, or shall, within the United Kingdom, or any of his Majesty's dominions or in any settlement,colony,territory,island, or place belonging or subject to his Majesty, issue or deliver any comr.si.sion for any ship or vessel, to the intent that such ship or vessel shall be employed as aforesaid, every such person so offending shall be deemed guilty of a mis demeanour, and shall, upon conviction thereof, upon any information or indictment, be punished by fine and im prisonment, or either of them, at the direction of the Court in which such offender shall be convicted, and every such ship or vessel, with the tackle, apparel, and furnitute, together with all the materials, arms, ammu nition, and stores nhich may belong to, or be on board of, any such ship or vessel, shall be forfeited; and it :hall be lawful for any Officer of his Majesty's Customs or Excise. or any Officer of his Majesty's Navy, nho is by law empowered` fo make seizures for any forfeiture incurred under any of the laws of Customs or Excise, or the laws of Trade anchNavigation, to seize such ships and vessels aforesaid, and in such places, and in such manner in which the Officers of his Majesty's Customs or Excise, and tl:e Officers of his Majesty's Navy, are empowered respectively to make seizures under the laws of Customs and Excise, or under the laws of Trade and Navigation, and that every such ship and vessel, with the tackle, apparel, and furniture, together with all the materials, arms, ammunition, and stores which may belong to, or be on board of, such ship or vessel, may be prosecuted and cenriemned in the like manner, and in such Courts as ships or vessels may be prose cuted and condemned, for any breach of the laws made for the protection of the revenues of Customs and Excise, or of the laws of Trade and Navigation." His Majesty, therefore, being desirous of preserving to his subjects the blessings of peace which they now happily enjoy, and being resolved to persevere in that system of neutrality which his Majesty has so repeatedly declared his determination to maintain; in order that none of his Majesty's subjects may unwarily render 'themselves liable to the penalties imposed by the sta tute herein mentioned, has thought . fit, by and with the advice of his Privy Council, to issue this his Royal Proclamation : And his Majesty does hereby strictly command that person i n n o anyof persons t o h r osaid co whatsoe ver ntests, or to co do m pr m es it u r e r at t t o em tak p e t p arr s a i c o t nls m o a f t t t i e le r, sa or id th a i t ng atn w te h , a u t p soe on v p er a , in co o n f tr th ay e r se t v o e th p r _ ai e rovipenal ties by the said statute imposed, and of his Majesty's high displeasure: And his Majesty, by and with the advice aforesaid, doth hereby enjoin all his Majesty's subjects, strictly to observe, as well towards the Ottoman Porte and the Greeks, as towards all other belligerents with whom his Majesty is at peace, the duties of neutrality ; and to re spect in all, and each of them, the exercise of those_ belligerent rights which his Majesty has always claimed to exercise when his Majesty has himself beep unhappily engaged in war.
