THE NATIONAL RRGISTER. which Goma! Bonaparte may have brought with him. The Admiral will allow all the baggage, wine, and provisions which the General may have brought with him, to be taken on board the Northurnherland. Among the baggage, his table service is to be understood as included, unless it be so considerable as to seem rather an at tide to be convert ed into ready money, than for real use. His money, his diamonds, and his valuable effects, (consequently Bills of Exchange also) of whatever kind they may be, must be deli -.ered up. The Admiral will declare to the General, that the British government by no means intends to confiscate his property, but merely to take upon itself the administra tion of his effects, to hinder him from using them as a means to promote bis flight. The examination shall be made in the presence of a person named by Bonaparte; the inventory of the effects to be retained, shall be signed by this person, as well as by the Rear Admiral. by the person whom he shall appoint to draw up the inventory. The interest on the principal (according as his property is more or less considerable) shall be applied to his support, and in this respect the principal arrangements be left to him. For this reason he can, from time to time, signify his wishes to the Admiral, till the arrival of the new Governor of •••:. Helena, and afterwards to the latter ; and if no objection i• to be made to his proposal, the Admiral or the Gover ner can give the necessary orders, and the disbursement will be paid by bills on his Majesty's treasury. In case of death, he can dispose of his property by a last will, and be assured that the contents of his testament shall be faithfully executed. As an attempt might be made to make a part of his property pass for the property of the persons of his suite, it must be signified that the property of his attendants is subject to the •ante regulations. The disposal of the troops intended to ward him must he left to the Governor. The latter, llowever, has ieceived a notice, in the case which will be hereafter mentioned, to act according to the desire of the Admiral. The General must be constantly attended by 30 ( fficer appointed by the Admiral or, if the case oc curs, by the Governor. If the General is allowed to go of the bounds where the sentinels are placed, one .)tderly man, at leait, must accompany the officer.— When :hips arrive, and as long as they remain in sight, 1 the General remains confined to the limits where the centinels ate placed. During this time all communica tion with the inhabitants is forbidden. His companions in St. Heltna are subject during this time to the same rules,' and must remain with him. At other times it is left to the judgment of the Admiral, or Governor to make the ne cessary regulations concerning them. It must be signified', to the General that if he makes any attempt to fly, he will then be put under close confinement; and it must be notified to his attendants, that if it should he found that they are are plotting to prepare the General's flight, they 'hail be separated from him and put under close confine ment. All letters addressed to the General, or to persons in his suite, must be delivered to the Admiral or Governor, who will read them before he suffers them to be delivered to those to whom they are addressed. Letters written by •he General or his suite, are subject to the same rule, No letter that does not come to St. Helena through the secretary of State, must be communicated to the General. or his attendants, if it is not written by a person living in the island. All their letters, addressed to persons not living in the island, most go under the cover of the Secre tary of Stale. It will be clearly expressed to the General. that the Governor and Admiral have precise orders to inform his Majesty's government of all the wishes and repre sentations which the General may desire to addicts to it ; 599 in this respect they need not use any precaution. But the paper, on which such request or representation is written, must be communicated to them open, that they may both read it, and when they send it, accompany it with such observations as they may judge neriessarv. Till the arrival of the new Governor, the Admiral must be considered as entirely tesponsible for the person of General Buonaparte, and his Majesty has no doubt of the inclination of the pre sent Governor to concur with the Admiral for this purpose. The Admiral has full power to retain the General on boa d his ship, or to convey him on board again, w hen, in his opi nion, the secure detention of his person cannot be other wise effected. When the Admiral Lrlives at St. Ileleon, the Governor will, upon his representation, adopt measures for sending immediately to England, the Cape of Good Hope, or the East Indies, such officers or persons i n the military corps of St. Helena, as the Admiral, either be cause they are foreigners, or on account of their character or their dispositions, shall think it adviseahle to dismiss fi orn the military service in St. Helena. If there arc sti angel s in the island whose residence in the country shall seem to be a view of becoming instrumental in the flight of G elle? al But, na- parte, he must take measures to remove them. The whole coast of the island, and all ships and boats that visit it, are placed under the surveillance of the Admiial. Ile fixes. the places which the boats may visit, and the Govet nor will send a sufficient guard to the points whet e the Admit al shall consider this precaution as necessary. The Admiral will adopt the most vigorous measures to NVa:Ch over the arrival and departure of every ship, and to prevent all com munication with the coast, except sto h as he shall allow. Orders will be issued to prevent, after a certain nece , sary interval, any foreign or mercantile vessel from going in future to St. Helena. If the General should he seized with serious illness, the Admiral and the Governor I%ill each name a physician who enjoys their confidence, in order to attend the General in common with his own physician; they will give them strict orders to Wye in every day a report on the state of his health. In case of his death, the Ad miral will Five orders to convey his body to England. Givenat tke War Office, July :10, 1813. STATE PA PER s.
