SKETCH OF A REPORT ON THE STATE OF THE FRENCH EMPIRE,
Presented by the Minister of the Interior to the Legislative body, Aug. 24, 1807.
Fifteen months ago, when the deputies separated, the German Princes were mostly in alliance with France—Prussia were among her friends—the differences with Russia were adjusted—general tranquility seemed secured—deputations from all parts of the Empire brought to the Emperor the homage of their admiration and gratitude—the heroes of the army were at Paris, to attend the festivals of Victory—all the Emperor's attention was directed to internal regulations—when England, accustomed to seek her own safety in the misfortunes of others, seduced Russia from her pacific inclinations, and precipitated Prussia into a war, without reason or object—An army of 130,000 men formed in the school of the great Frederick were almost annihilated in the first battle.
Meanwhile, France, calm and tranquil at home, maintained and advanced her internal improvement—the conscription law was executed with more zeal than care—the taxes punctually paid—the National Guards faithful and ardent—public spirit undiminished—the conduct of the mayors satisfactory.
The donations to charitable foundations to 1806, forming a capitol of 2,300,000 francs augmented by a late gift of the Emperor of 15,000,000 francs. The sufferers by the maritime war have been indemnified by his majesty.
The government has begun to direct its attention to the means of repressing mendicity—13,400 miles of road have been repaired and improved, including 6127 highways—The navigation of eight principal rivers improved—Four bridges nearly finished since the recess—ten others actively building—Ten canals constantly worked at—two cuts which unite Paris with Holland, will be navigable in 18 months.
The seaports are restored—Antwerp, where, for the first time, 74 and 80 gun vessels ride, and where 14 ships are on stocks, will be the centre of marine service.
Vast improvements, in fortifications, &c. have been made at Flushing, Dunkirk, Cherbourg and Rochefort.
Agriculture has occupied the unceasing patronage of government; which has devoted much successful attention to the preservation and improvement of the breed of sheep, horses and black cattle.
A commercial code is digesting, for protecting credit, and preventing the disgrace of bankruptcy.
The cotton-spinning establishments have revived.
In Paris bridges are building, to be named from the places of the Emperor's great victories—Columns, statues, temples, monuments, &c. commemorative of heroes and great events, are to augment the splendor of the metropolis.
The tomb of Dessaix is erected on the Alps, between France and Italy.
The French school of arts are commemorating by painting and sculpture, the great event of the present reign—The Emperor promises to accomplish the institution of a General School.
Thirty five colleges have been established during the year; containing 18,000 scholars; 3700 of whom owe their education, in whole or in part, to the national county.—Twelve schools of Jurisprudence are opened, and at present occupied by 12,000 students.
Astronomical institutions are in a train of restoration.
The Emperor expresses his desire to promote the purity of science generally, and the preservation of the French language in its purity—the encouragement and protection of genius—the abolition of sects from among the learned, and political parties from the state—the union of learning, morality and good taste—and the decency and sincerity of criticism.
He expresses his approbation of the members of the church in general—and declares that the Jews have shewn themselves worthy of the dispositions which have been made in their favor.
Such (says the report,) is the exposition of the improvements, which have been brought to perfection in the interior, since the last sitting. Several other branches of the government have been advanced, and are now in a situation the most advantageous.
France, among all the States of Europe, is the only one without paper-money. Its commerce interrupted by unavoidable circumstances, preserves the hope of renovation in the seed that remains.—The arms of France have been carried to the Farthest extremities of Europe; its influence extended beyond the Bosphorus, and into the centre of the Continent of Asia; the most complete order prevails in our interior, England alone remaining overwhelmed with the burden of the war, and the hatred of nations; these are the effects of one year, and the encouraging prospects of that which is to follow.
Foreign Intelligence.
HOLSTEIN.
KIEL, SEPT. 22.
On the 2d September, at night, the English commenced a terrible cannonade of Copenhagen, which continued nearly twelve hours; and after a short cessation, recommenced, and continued it for forty-eight hours without interruption.
On the 7th Gen. Peymann, with the advice of his general officers, agreed upon a capitulation, and issued a proclamation to his fellow-citizens, announcing the event.
The following is a correct copy of the capitulation:
CAPITULATION OF COPENHAGEN.
ART. I. Immediately after the signing and ratification of the present capitulation, the troops of his Britannic Majesty shall be put in possession of the citadel.
II. A guard of British shall also be placed in the naval arsenal.
III. The ships of the line and other vessels of war, of all kinds, with all the naval stores belonging to his Danish Majesty, shall be delivered to Commissioners to be appointed by the Commanders in Chief of the forces of his Britannic Majesty, and the commissioners shall immediately be put in possession of the naval arsenals and warehouses, and all the magazines and vessels they contain.
IV. Permission shall be given to the British transports, in case it shall be found necessary, to enter the port for the purpose of taking on board the troops and stores which shall have embarked on the island.
V. The vessels of war shall immediately proceed from the inner harbor; and in the space of six weeks from the date of the capitulation, or sooner if possible, the troops of his Britannic Majesty shall restore to the troops of his Danish Majesty, the citadel in the same state it was found when occupied by them.—The British troops shall embark from the island of Zealand in the time above mentioned, or earlier if possible.
VI. From the moment of the signature of this capitulation, hostilities shall cease throughout the island of Zealand.
VII. No person shall be molested, and every species of public and private property, excepting the ships and vessels of war, and the naval stores above mentioned, belonging to his Danish Majesty, shall be respected:—All the civil and military authorities in the service of his Danish Majesty shall continue in the full exercise of their functions throughout the island of Zealand; and every thing shall be done to produce union and harmony between the two nations.
VIII. All prisoners taken on either side, shall be reciprocally restored, with conditions; and the officers who have given the paroles of honor shall be discharged.
IX. All English property which shall have been sequestrated in consequence of hostilities shall be restored.
The present capitulation shall be ratified by the respective Commanders in chief; and the ratifications shall be exchanged this day, before noon.
Done at Copenhagen, Sept. 7, 1807. (Signed) JAMES GAMBIER, CATHCART, PEYMANN.
In consequence of this capitulation the English took possession at noon, on the 7th September, of the citadel and the fleet. It is impossible to calculate the loss in the city. Three hundred and five houses were reduced to ashes.—They are at this moment occupied in equipping the fleet: The English troops are embarking; and the fleet will depart in a month.
The sequestration of English goods was taken off the 9th.
The Prince Royal has refused to acknowledge the capitulation.
[Moniteur.]
GERMANY. HAMBURG, SEPT. 18.
A formidable army is assembling in Flanders, (Funen,) making arrangements to pass the great Belt.
The Swedish island of Rugen, has capitulated to the French.
GERMANY. VIENNE, SEPT. 20.
We hear that our Court, indignant at the repeated violations of our neutral flag, has resolved to shut all our ports against the English and to prevent the introduction of English merchandise into our States.
HAMBURG, SEPT. 22.
The measures which the Danish government has taken to cut off every species of intercourse with England, surpass all others which have been hitherto adopted for the same object.
SEPTEMBER 13.
We believe here that an attempt for a general peace has been made at St. Petersburg; and that the point of the greatest difficulty is the liberal principle that the French Emperor wishes to have adopted in favor of commerce and navigation in general.
SEPTEMBER 19.
We have intelligence that the Austrians have shut their ports of Trieste and Fiume against the English.
All the ports in the Pope's territories are occupied by French troops, to interdict all communication with the English.
SEPTEMBER 21.
It is confirmed, that the King of Sweden speaks in strong terms against the English expedition; and is very much affected by the reduction of Copenhagen.
FRANKFORT, SEPT. 19.
The number of wounded French soldiers which have passed here during the war amounts to 20,000; and they still pass daily.
An earthquake has been lately felt in Naples and at Genoa.
AUGSBURG, SEPT. 15.
An embargo has been laid at Leghorn, in order that all English property there may be seized. Similar measures of seizure are to be pursued in all other parts of the independent kingdom of Etruria.
FRANCE. PARIS, SEPT. 19.
Hopes are entertained that the King of Denmark will not ratify the convention of Copenhagen. The Prince-Royal has testified his utmost indignation at the conduct of his General, in making concessions exceeding his military powers. He has refused to receive Mr. Jackson, the English agent, who had preferred himself at Kiel:—He has declared he will continue at war with England; and retake by force what had been wrested from him by surprise and treachery.
The Legislative Body have this day passed a law for establishing a commercial code. In discussing this law, many severe observations were made against the British.—The Emperor has ordered that the Legislature shall terminate its session to-morrow.
NEW EXPEDITIONS.
LONDON, SEPT. 15.
The following regiments are immediately to embark on a special service, under the command of Gen. Beresford, viz.—Detachment of the Royal Artillery—do. Engineers—3d foot or old Buffs—25th Edinburgh reg't 34th 83d, and 91st regiments.
SEPT. 19.
The letters from our fleet in the Baltic, mention an act of atrocity on the part of the Danes, of which there are few examples; and which for the honor of the Danish character, we trust has no foundation. It is said, that, upon a survey made by our carpenters of the bottoms of the Danish ships, it was discovered that most of them were scuttled. The manner in which this is supposed to have been effected, is as ingenious as the motive must have been detestable. In the bow of each ship below the water mark, a square hole is said to have been cut, into which a piece of thin deal plank was so neatly inserted, as almost to escape the closest observation. If this diabolical stratagem had succeeded, not one of the vessels in which it was practiced, could have reached a British port.
PRECAUTION.
By an order of Government, a strict enquiry is to be immediately made as to the occupation or employment of every foreigner in the United Kingdom, and such as cannot give a clear and satisfactory account of themselves, will be forthwith ordered out of the country.
MERITED DISGRACE.
Orders, we understand, have been sent out for the immediate recall of Gen. Whitelocke. His conduct at Buenos Ayres is to become the subject of a Court Martial as soon as he arrives.
OUR ENEMIES.
Great naval preparations are said to be making at Antwerp, and a secret expedition is on foot.
The failure of the expedition to S. Amer. appears to be attributed to the Commander in Chief. The number of killed and wounded was about 2400. Several of the wounded have died since the treaty.
LATE & IMPORTANT.
LONDON, SEPT. 23.
A Cabinet Council was held on Friday, which continued until three o'clock on Saturday morning. The proceedings are carefully concealed. A new and powerful expedition to Buenos Ayres is rumored to have been agreed upon, and a new system adopted to ensure success by numbers and energy.
We are informed, and we believe our information to be correct, that our Government has resolved to retaliate on France, exactly on the model of the French blockading decree.—Not only the coasts of France and Italy but of EVERY EUROPEAN STATE, under the influence and control of Napoleon—as also all foreign dependencies to circumstanced—will be declared in a state of blockade; and all vessels going to, or coming from any of them will be declared LEGAL PRIZES. This will settle at once the clamors of the Americans respecting their right to trade with the French colonies—carrying or pretending to carry their produce to an American port, and afterwards to reship the same for Bordeaux and other French ports.
We understand that the answer given to Mr. Munroe, was exactly conformable to the principle about to be adopted.—Mr. Munroe, it seems, was instructed to declare, that should the British Government refuse to concede the points demanded by America, the Non-Importation Act should be immediately enforced.—The reply was, "I am commanded by his Majesty to inform you, that the issue of such an order by the American Government will be considered and held as a DECLARATION OF WAR. On the points respecting the right of search, Mr. Munroe was informed, that Great Britain will maintain her rights, not only respecting goods, but seamen, not even excepting American SHIPS OF WAR."
[London Star.]
ITALY. VENICE, AUG. 29.
The French have taken possession of the Republic of the Seven Islands [Ist. Corfu, and its dependencies Paxos and Anti-Paxos. 2d. Saint Maure. 3d. Ithaca. 4th. Cephalonia. 5th. Zante. 6th. Suprinza; and 7th. Leuco.] These islands formerly belonged to Venice; but were ceded to France by the Treaty of Campo-Formio.—In 1799, they were taken by the Turks and Russians, and formed into a free Republic, under the protection of Russia; who has now abandoned them to France.
Portsmouth,
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1807.
LATEST FROM EUROPE.
Capt. Doane, who reached Boston on Friday last, in 30 hours from New-York, was the bearer of much late & interesting News, from Europe. He brought London papers to Sept. 30, and other English prints to Oct. 9. Extracts from which are given under our foreign head. Capt. Doane, verbally reports, that the Revenge had arrived at Portsmouth, from Plymouth, to take Mr. Munroe on board, who was expected at Portsmouth, to embark in a few days for the United States:—That it was rumored, the British government would not relinquish the right of search for seamen, even on board National ships:—That the prospect of an accommodation was gloomy: and that the English had issued orders to detain all American vessels bound to or from the ports of an enemy.
[Boston Gaz.]
The last news from England has greatly stagnated shipping business.
Denmark fallen!—The seizure of the Danish fleet by the British, in every view, must be considered as the most important event of the present revolutionary war. We shall not speak at large on the value of the ships taken or of the naval and military stores destroyed or carried away; of the houses burnt, and the merchandise wasted, damaged and consumed in the conflagration! All these aggravations lose their peculiar character, when we reflect for a moment on the misery of the inhabitants, taken by surprise, with their wives and children about them, witnessing the horrors of the scene, and exposed to the dangers of a nocturnal bombardment. Two persons only were suffered to leave Copenhagen after the arrival of the British fleet, and those two were of the blood royal in England. All the rest of the people, of every sex and description, were caught in the toils, obliged to abide the issue of the siege, and to suffer the pains and penalties of military execution.
The Danes were the only neutral in Europe, after they had beaten the British under Nelson, and were then notwithstanding induced to abandon the armed neutrality of the north, because the emperor Paul had just lost his life for supporting it: they were then complimented by the British officers with the most endearing appellations. But neither these compliments nor their subsequent confidence in the laws of nations and the honor of the British government, have been able to save them from their present unexampled calamities.
Denmark from this moment can be no longer considered as an independent power; and if she is ever restored to her former rank and character as a nation, it must be by the friendly interference of contiguous nations. In a word, by the united power of Russia and France. But this is not the only evil: from that moment what little reputation remained attached to the ancient law of nations was completely abolished. Particular governments may hereafter make their respective conventions, if they will: but the sword now will become the only weight in the scale of empire, until a new public law can be enacted, to which all and every government must give its formal assent or disavowal.
On the side of this mighty change in the present order of things, and in favor of a perfect and effective reformation in the late maritime code, are France, Russia, Turkey, Germany, Prussia, Spain and Italy, besides Holland and Switzerland, and the governments forming the Rhenish confederacy. In fine every nation in Europe, except the Swedes and British.
Here then we are to rest—here we must pause awhile. A new era is to begin in the world, and woe to those who stand in opposition. It is Rome or Carthage! and where is the instance of power merely naval, maintaining its consequence for a long period? Where is Tyre, Carthage, Venice, Genoa, Antwerp or Holland? Each of these splendid receptacles of the arts, dependent on their commerce have perished in their turn.—London remains, with its much vaunted wealth—but it requires not the gift of presence to foresee, nor the power of divination to foretell the result of the pending controversy in Europe.
If it were just in England thus to seize on the property and military appointments of a friendly government merely on suspicion, or indeed on any grounds whatever; will not every other government have the same right, and be fully justified in the exercise of the same power of doing mischief? If England takes the fleet, may not France or Russia take the land, and hold it as security until that identical fleet is returned to the Danes, and all the damage made good? We do not say this will be the ultimatum of the high and mighty powers now confederated, now bound in solemn league and covenant to establish, and cause to be executed a new system of national jurisprudence: But we do say, that if we have the courage to look our affairs in the face, we shall soon be convinced, that a policy as new and original as the crisis is new and astonishing, must be adopted.
In saving our trade with the British, we may sacrifice our more profitable commerce with other relations; and in preserving our peace with that government, we may be involved in the horrors of war with all the rest of Europe.
[Boston Chronicle.]
FROM RUSSIA.
Capt. Cleveland, who arrived at Boston on Thursday last, failed from Cronstadt, on the 15th of Sept. There had been a complete change of Ministry; the former Ministers, and many subordinate officers had resigned, in disgust, in consequence of the conclusion of the treaty with France. The new administration are, of course, rather in favor of France. Apprehensions were entertained of a hostile visit from the British, and defensive preparations were making. [Palladium.]
FROM FRANCE.
New measures are adopting for the purpose of restricting British Commerce, which will seriously effect the United States. The war is to continue between Denmark and Great Britain—and the former, it appears, are to receive French aid, as soon as it can operate.
Particulars of the fall of COPENHAGEN.
The surrender took place the 7th September, at noon—The English took immediate possession of the fleet, the citadel, and the royal ware-houses; and measures for the equipment of the Danish fleet, and the embarkation of the naval stores. The ships taken were 20 sail of the line, 16 frigates, 19 brigs, and 17 gun-boats. The French represent the conditions to have been extremely hard; and that the Prince Regent would not acknowledge the capitulation: But the English had the fleet and citadel in possession; and measures to oppose them had been taken the latter end of September. An aid-de-camp of the Prince Regent had had an audience of the Emperor Napoleon after the surrender. The cannonade of the English was represented as prodigious, and the Danish loss to have been very great—In one fort the Danes are stated to have lost 1000 men, and the garrison from 7000 had been reduced to less than 4000 men.—Fifteen hundred of the inhabitants perished. Gen. Peymann, though severely wounded, continued to reject all the summons to surrender, until driven to the last extremity.—Besides the suburbs, which the Danes set on fire, 305 houses were burnt.
A hint to Navy flickers.—Is it not fortunate for the United States that we had not a navy as large as the Danes, as it is probable we should have been served much in the same manner—and our little navy would have exposed our sea ports (even if they had been as much fortified as Zealand or Copenhagen) to a most tremendous bombardment, and our wives and children to all the horrors of a siege. Let Americans no longer talk of a navy, when this very navy is the cause of all the affliction of the Danes. Our non-intercourse is more powerful than 50 ships of the line. [Chronicle.]
FROM HALIFAX.
Numerous letters state, that orders have been received there from England, to organize the militia; and put the fortifications in repair.—One hundred militia were employed daily in assistance on the works; and large reinforcements were expected there.
A late letter from Halifax, says, "Sir Richard Strachan is understood to be ordered to this station, with four additional ships of the line." [Boston paper.]
Captain Brown, who came passenger in the Schooner Hamilton from La Vera Cruz, informs us, that about the first September a severe gale of wind was felt in the bay of Mexico. At Campeachy fifty houses were destroyed and fifty vessels lost. The tide rose to such a height as to drive some of the vessels three miles into the country. About twelve vessels were lost at La Vera Cruz, and the most of the crews perished. It was supposed to be the heaviest gale ever experienced at that place. [New York paper.]
The Enquirer, at Richmond, has given a portrait of Mr. Burr, and in it he notices his appearance at New Orleans. "His plan at this point is not to be mistaken. If his force was large, if the army were sincere in his support, if the inhabitants of New Orleans were prompt and explicit in their attachment, Burr would have unfurled the banners of rebellion." The same writer promises strictures on the chief justice. We expect an able investigation. [Essex Reg.]
The Richmond Enquirer, in stating a defence of general Wilkinson, against the calumnies of his enemies, or the Burr party, says—General W. never, by word or deed, endeavoured to incline a single person to oppose the laws or government of his country, never received a dollar for the purposes of corruption. Never held a commission, or received a pension from any foreign power, and never gave a test of allegiance to any but his own country. The wretch who addressed him, had acknowledged himself a spy and a liar." No character is false, in these times, against the virulence of invective, the slanders of party, and the malice of disappointment. [Ibid.]
We should not place the least confidence in the representations of party respecting our negotiations in England. Contradictory accounts are easily produced, and the plainest things confounded. The violent attempts to defend the enemies of our peace, will oblige apologies, explanations, and all sorts of mean artifices to reconcile the public mind to such outrages. [Ibid.]
From Frederickburg, Vir. Oct 21.
"I wrote you on Monday last, informing of the dreadful calamity that has visited this place. I could not at that moment of alarm state accurately the extent of the mischief; it is now ascertained that at least 200 houses of different descriptions have been destroyed—many of their former occupants are yet without a dwelling.
"The whole loss is estimated at four hundred thousand dollars." [N.Y. pap.]
A number of Miscellaneous productions (from original) together with several new advertisements, are unavoidably omitted until next week, when with the assistance of a Supplement to the Gazette, we hope to satisfy the Reader, and oblige all our Ad-serting friends.

CONGRESS. On the 5th inst. Mr. Quincy moved to instruct the Committee on foreign aggressions to inquire into the circumstances of the attack on the Chesapeake, and the causes assigned for making it. Negatived 93 to 24. The Chairman of the Committee stated they were making the very enquiry which was contemplated.
Mr. Tiffin has submitted in the Senate of the U. S. a resolution for amending the constitution, that the Judges may be removed from office on the address of two thirds of both Houses of Congress.
BRITISH INJUSTICE.
We have authority to state, that a Philadelphia trading vessel, which has made several voyages to Guadaloupe, without interruption, was on a late voyage carried by a British privateer into Antigua. It appeared, that every thing was perfectly clear and regular, and that the vessel, and goods belonged to several known native citizens of Philadelphia. She was therefore dismissed after an examination of a few minutes, but was subjected to costs of TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS!!!
It is thus that Britain fines, taxes, spunges and spoliates as she pleases. No treaty is worth acceptance, that does not relieve us from these insufferable and wicked exactions, to maintain the corsairs of Britain. She has done us more unlawful injury in one year, than all the piratical states of Barbary have done to us, since we became a Nation. [Philad. paper.]
GAZETTE MARINE LIST.
Yesterday arrived, Ich't Diana, Capt. Fernald, from Demerara, via St. Thomas, in 22 days from the latter place.

NOTICE.
At a special meeting of the Board of Firewards at Union Hall on the 6th Nov. 1807: —Voted Unanimously, That the Law of this State passed November 30th, 1803, authorizing the Firewards to make "By Laws" for the better security of the town against fire, and also an extract of a Law of the State for extinguishing fires, passed the 6th April, 1781, be published in the New Hampshire Gazette and Portsmouth Oracle, together with their By Laws, and 500 copies of the same be printed in hand Bills, for the information of the inhabitants of this town. Per order.
SAMUEL LARKIN, Secretary.
LAW OF THE GENERAL COURT.
"BE it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened," That it shall be the duty of the Fire wards, or the major part of them, within the town of Portsmouth, or any other town where fire wards are chosen, to make such rules and regulations, not repugnant to any law of this State, for preventing fires, or for clearing away shavings, or chips, or any combustible matter that may be thought dangerous, from any house, store, work shop, wharf, or street, as they in their judgment, may think proper. And the said fire wards shall have full power to annex such fines and penalties for the breach of any one, or all, of those rules and regulations, as may be necessary, not exceeding twenty dollars for each offence.
And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, That any person may fine or prosecute any one, for a breach of any of those rules or regulations so made, before any court of competent jurisdiction to try the same, in an action of debt; one half of which fines shall go to the prosecutor, and the other half to be applied for the use of the engines within the town where the offence is committed."
BY LAWS OF THE FIREWARDS FOR THE TOWN OF PORTSMOUTH.
Resolved, That no person, or persons within the town of Portsmouth, shall, hereafter exercise their trades or occupations in stores, shops, work shops, or other places of business by night, near or amongst combustible materials, without having the candles or lamps, by which they so work or are occupied, well and carefully secured in a lantern, or in lieu thereof, a tin or metal candlestick or favel, with a bottom of ten inches diameter, and a rim one inch and a half high, and covered with water, on penalty of forfeiting for every neglect or offence, the sum of TWO DOLLARS. And all persons shall at least three times in every week, cause the chips, shavings, and other combustible materials, to be removed from the buildings, where they are at work or are occupied, on penalty of forfeiting for every neglect thereof, FIVE DOLLARS.
Resolved, That no Cooper or Coopers within the town of Portsmouth shall fire or burn any cask, or other vessel in any shop, ware house, or other place, than in a sufficient brick or stone chimney made convenient for that purpose, on pain of forfeiting FIVE DOLLARS, for every such offence.
Resolved, That no person or persons shall make any bon-fire, or set on fire, any wood, straw, shavings, or other combustible matter, by night or by day, in any street, lane or alley, or in any private or public yard or inclosure in this town, on pain of forfeiting the sum of FIVE DOLLARS.
Resolved, That every person who shall hereafter be employed in graving or caulking any vessel within the town of Portsmouth, on leaving such vessel shall extinguish all fires, and carefully secure all shavings or combustible matter used about such work, on penalty of forfeiting FIVE DOLLARS.
Resolved, That no person or persons who shall hereafter be employed in graving or sheathing any vessel, either hove down at any wharf or lying on any beach in this town, shall make any fire under any pot or other vessel for the purpose of heating any Pitch, Tar, Turpentine, or Rosin, or any other combustible material, unless such pot or other vessel shall be secured and enclosed in good and sufficient brick or stone work, under penalty of FIVE DOLLARS to be paid by the owner or occupant of such wharf or beach.
Resolved, That the occupant of every dwelling House in the town of Portsmouth, shall cause each chimney in such house in which a fire is by him or her usually kept, to be swept or burned once in three months at least, on penalty of forfeiting ONE DOLLAR. And if any chimney shall take fire for want of being regularly swept or burned, and shall blaze out at the top, the occupant of the apartment to which such chimney shall belong, shall forfeit ONE DOLLAR, unless it shall happen within three months after such chimney shall have been swept or burned.
Resolved, That every person using a stove in any dwelling house or other building, shall cause it to be placed in a chimney or on a secure hearth of such materials and fixed in such a manner as the Firewards shall approve, on penalty of forfeiting FIVE DOLLARS for each and every week's neglect thereof.
Resolved, That no person shall hereafter use, have or carry any lighted Pipe or Cigar, into any street, lane, yard or alley, or on any wharf, or into any building in which hay, straw, or shavings, are usually kept within the town of Portsmouth, on penalty of forfeiting for each offence, TWO DOLLARS.
Resolved, That no person shall hereafter carry any lighted candle, torch or lamp, into any barn, stable, or other building, in which hay, straw, or shavings are usually kept in Portsmouth, or have, hold, or use the same therein, without having such candle, torch or lamp, secured in a closed lantern, on penalty of forfeiting FIVE DOLLARS for each and every such offence.
Resolved, That no person shall hereafter carry fire from any house or place within the town of Portsmouth, unto any other house or place within the same, except in some safe vessel well covered, on penalty of forfeiting ONE DOLLAR for each offence.
WILLIAM BOYD, Chairman, SAMUEL LARKIN, Secretary.
Extract from a Law of the General Court. "And be it further enacted," That every House of two stories high, which has four fire-places, shall be provided with one leather bucket; every such House having six fire-places, shall be provided with two such buckets, and having eight or more fire-places, with four such buckets as aforesaid, fit for, and to be used in the case of the breaking out of fire; which buckets shall be provided and constantly kept for the use aforesaid, at the charge of the owner of every such house. And every house shall have thereon a good secure ladder or ladders, reaching from the ground to the ridge-pole, provided by the owner or occupant; and if provided at the charge of the occupant to be allowed as aforesaid. And if any person or persons shall neglect to provide and keep said buckets and ladders as before required herein, each person so offending, shall pay two pounds for every three months neglect therein. And the said Firewards are hereby authorized to examine and determine as to the observation and compliance with this act, and shall be allowed as competent witnesses in any suit that may be commenced for any forfeiture incurred by virtue of this act. And all such fines and forfeitures shall be applied by the said fire wards to purchase tools and instruments proper to be used at such fires as may accidentally, or otherwise happen in said town."
N. B. The Firewards remark with much satisfaction, the promptitude with which the greater part of their fellow-citizens have complied with their notifications for providing Buckets and Ladders. There are however yet some delinquents. Such, it is presumed, will no longer plead ignorance of the Laws, after this public notice. As the season is fast approaching when every possible precaution is necessary to be taken, to prevent the destructive elements, the inhabitants are requested to use their exertions in assisting the Firewards to enforce the Laws, being determined to do their duty without partiality to any one; and are informed that they will meet at Union Hall on the first Monday in every month, at 7 o'clock, P. M. in order to hear any complaints, and to attend to any duty, that may then and there be required of them in their official capacities.
Per Order of the Board.
