​MONDAY. (Captain, 1838. f-p., 20; h-p., 21.)
John Monday entered the Navy, 15 March, 1806, as Clerk, on board the Bustler gun-brig, Lieut.Commander Richard Welsh. Although present, as we are informed, in the Foudroyant at the capture, in the following month, of the Marengo 80, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral Linois, and 40-gun frigate Belle Poule, his name, we believe, continued borne on the books of the above vessel, chiefly as Midshipman and acting Sub-Lieutenant, until Jan. 1809, during which period he saw much boat-service on the Downs station. After an employment of two years and a half, as Master’s Mate, in the Diomede 50, flag-ship off Guernsey and in the East Indies of Admirals D’Auvergne and Wm. O’Brien Drury, he became attached, in Oct. 1811, to the Queen 74, Capts. Lord Colville and John Coode; under the former of whom he was landed in 1812 for the purpose of co-operating with the patriots on the north coast of Spain. He continued to serve in the Queen, as an acting and confirmed Lieutenant (order and commission respectively dated 30 Jan. and 27 Jane, 1814), until Dec. 1815, part of the time in the West Indies and Mediterranean, under the flags of Rear-Admirals Sir Fras. Laforey and Chas. Vinicombe Penrose; and was next appointed, in the capacity of First-Lieutenant – 1 Sept. 1821, to the Semiramis 42, flag-ship of Lord Colville at Cork, where he remained until paid off in April, 1825 – 14 April, 1826, to the Clio 18, Capt. Robt. Aitchison, stationed in the North Sea – and, 3 Aug. following, to the Glasgow 60, Capt. Hon. Jas. Ashley Maude. For his conduct in the latter ship at the battle of Navarin he was presented with a second promotal commission dated 22 Oct. 1827. He afterwards, 28 Sept. 1832, obtained a three years’ appointment in the Coast Guard, and from 12 Dec. 1836, until advanced to his present rank 27 Dec. 1838, he commanded the Stag 46, bearing the broad pendant of Commodore Thos. Ball Sulivan in South America, He has since been on half-pay. Capt. Monday is married, and has, issue.

On his restoration to liberty, after four years of captivity, Mr. Montagu was successively received, in the course of 1813, into the Solebay 32, flag-ship at Yarmouth of Rear-Admiral Geo.

# A Treatise on Painting/Chapter 62

Chap. LXII.—Of the Equipoise of Bodies, Plate V.
The balance or equipoise of parts in the human body is of two sorts, viz. simple, and complex. Simple, when a man stands upon his feet without motion: in that situation, if he extends his arms at different distances from the middle, or stoop, the centre of his weight will always be in a perpendicular line upon the centre of that foot which supports the body; and if he rests equally upon both feet, then the middle of the chest will be perpendicular to the middle of the line which measures the space between the centres of his feet.
The complex balance is, when a man carries a weight not his own, which he bears by different motions; as in the figure of Hercules stifling Anteus, by pressing him against his breast with his arms, after he has lifted him from the ground. He must have as much of his own weight thrown behind the central line of his feet, as the weight of Anteus adds before.

He will not imitate those who, in all the different attitudes they adopt, or invent, make use of the same muscles, in the arms, back, or chest, or any other parts.

When the arms are carried behind the back, the elbows can never be brought nearer than the length from the elbow to the end of the longest finger; so that the fingers will not be seen beyond the elbows, and in that situation, the arms with the shoulders form a perfect square. The greatest extension of the arm across the chest is, when the elbow comes over the pit of the stomach; the elbow and the shoulder in this position, will form an equilateral triangle.

The proportion of members is again divided into two parts, viz. equality, and motion. By equality is meant (besides the measure corresponding with the ​whole), that you do not confound the members of a young subject with those of old age, nor plump ones with those that are lean; and that, moreover, you do not blend the robust and firm muscles of man with feminine softness: that the attitudes and motions of old age be not expressed with the quickness and alacrity of youth; nor those of a female figure like those of a vigorous young man. The motions and members of a strong man should be such as to express his perfect state of health.

Acts of Parliament (Expiration) Act 1808 c.106 48_Geo_3
The Acts of Parliament (Expiration) Act 1808 was passed to reduce the inconvenience caused by Acts of Parliament expiring before they can be renewed.
An Act to remedy the Inconvenience which has arisen and may arise from the Expiration of Acts before the passing of Acts to continue the same. [25th June 1808]
Whereas bills for the continuing of Acts in force only for a limited time have sometimes not passed before the expiration of the Act intended to be continued, and great inconvenience may arise therefrom: Where any bill may have been or shall be introduced into this present or any future session of Parliament for the continuance of any Act which would expire in such sessions, and such Act shall have expired before the bill for continuing the same shall have received the royal assent, such continuing Act shall be deemed and taken to have effect from the date of the expiration of the Act intended to be continued as fully and effectually, to all intents and purposes, as if such continuing Act had actually passed before the expiration of such Act, except it shall be otherwise especially provided in such continuing Act; Provided nevertheless, that nothing herein contained shall extend or be construed to extend to affect any person or persons with any punishment, penalty, or forfeiture whatsoever, by reason of anything done or omitted to be done by any such person or persons contrary to the provisions of the Act so continued, between the expiration of the same and the date at which the Act continuing the same may have received or shall receive the royal assent.
