of the service.

"Art. 4. All the sailing vessels inferior to frigates., as
well as steamers of every class, shall be maintained
afloat.

" Art. 5. The division into ranks and classes indicated
in the first arCcle of the present ordinance, with regard
to the ships, frigates, corvettes, and brigs, shall-not be
considered as strictly obligatory. Our Minister of
Marine may modify them as he shall think proper for
the wants of the service.

" Art. 6. The artillery of the ships of all classes now
afloat shall continue to be regulated by the ordinance of
the Ist of February, 1837, 'except such changes as may
be ordered by way of experiment. As respects the
ships now on the stocks, or which may be constructed in
future, our Minister of Marine may modify the compo-
sition of their artillery, and place on board guns of a
new calibre, of which the use should be deemed more
advantageous for the service of the floet."
