POR El Fisco, y Real hazienda de su Magestad CONTRA La ciudad de Cartagena SOBRE Competencia de jurisdicción por haberse puesto Aduana en la fuente del Álamo, y lo demás que dello ha resultado.
|
- Folio. 10 ff. con el pleito. Con anotaciones marginales de época explicativas en margen blanco. Buen ejemplar. Encuadernado en cartoné con papel de aguas actual. Sin fecha (siglo XVII). Ya en 1463 se habla de "la fuente del alamo" en un litigio de tierras entre Cartagena y Lorca, entonces esta zona con nacimiento de agua y frondosos álamos servía de residencia temporal a los ganaderos que traían sus ganados desde el centro de la península. Como hecho anecdótico decir que en dicha fuente se encontraba el mojón que limitaba los términos de Murcia, Cartagena y Lorca. De aquí su importancia estratégica para el establecimiento de una Aduana por parte de la ciudad de Cartagena lo que motivó este pleito con el Fisco.En la segunda mitad del siglo XVII ya luchaba Fuente Álamo por segregarse de estos términos y fue el 20 de Julio (Día de la Villa) de 1700 cuando consigue la independencia, firmándola S.M. el Rey Carlos II. Su primer alcalde fue D. Gregorio Reyllo Hernandez. Las tres ciudades citadas no aceptaban la segregación y tras muchos litigios y gastos en 1702 se anula el municipio. Evidentemente, estas ciudades tenían mayor poder económico y lograron su objetivo.En esta Aduana se pretendía cobrar el almojarifazgo, un impuesto que databa de Alfonso X y que se pagaba por el traslado de mercaderías que transitaban entre los diversos puertos (peninsulares o americanos). Así se trataba de recaudar para la ciudad de Cartagena los impuestos por las mercaderías que salían o entraban a través del puerto.

OZANNE, (Nicolas-Marie).
Marine Militaire ou Recueil des differens Vaisseaux qui servent a la Guerre suivis des Manoeuvres qui ont le plus de Raport au Combat ainsi qua l'Ataque et la Deffense des Ports.Paris, the author, J. François Chereau, [1762]. 8vo. A wholly engraved book, with a title-page in an architectural frame, armorial dedication illustration with allegorical figures, 50 engraved leaves (1 folding), including 44 with illustrations of ships. Modern half calf.
|
- (2), 50 engraved ll. Ornamentstichsammlung 1463 (later ed.?); Cat. NHSM, p. 750 (later ed.?); Cohen, Livres a Gravures, col. 778; Lewine, p. 399; Polak 7234; NBG XXXVIII, cols 1021-1022; Thieme & Becker XXVI, p. 110. First edition of a wholly engraved and well illustrated account of battleships, other naval vessles, and naval manoeuvres. The title is followed by an illustrated engraved dedication to (Etienne François), Duke of Choiseul (1719-1785) facing the unnumbered leaf 1 with the dedication text. Leaves 2 and 3 contain the "Avertissement" and table of contents, leaves 4 to 50 illustrate and describe battleships with 40 to 120 guns, other types of ships, battle orders, a windward and leeward attack, chasing an enemy ship, forcing the enemy to fight, avoiding a fight, forcing a passage through an enemy line, etc. The folding leaf 50 also contains a list of terms with explanations of their meanings. Engravings 1 to 49 measure 17 x 11 cm, mostly with an illustration at the top measuring 6.5 x 11 cm. In engravings 5 to 20 each illustration shows a different kind of ship, with notes about it and sometimes a decorative tailpiece. Most of the illustrations in engravings 23 to 48 show sea battles or manoeuvres, with an explanatory text and in most cases a plan at the foot showing the positions and movements of the ships.Nicolas-Marie Ozanne (1728-1811), known as Ozanne laîné, worked as an artist for the French navy. The dedication describes the Duke of Choiseul as (among other things) Minister of the Marine, a post he held from 1761 to 1766. Polak and other sources date the first edition 1762, which appears to be consistent with the imprint and watermark of the present copy. The imprint reads "chez lauteur, rue S. Thomas du Louvre." and "chez J. François Chereau rue S. Jacques aux 2. Piliers dOr." This was the widow Chereaus address in 1763, whereas some copies omit the two dedication leaves and give an address on rue de Mathurins, probably after the Duke of Choiseuls disgrace in 1770 (the firm is recorded there in 1770, though they used the old address again in the 1780s). Parts of the watermark and the papermakers name are difficult to see in the present copy, but the countermark includes "FIN/./AUVERGNE 1742."The title-page has a small abrasion and small holes in the background shading and some small drops of glue, one pinhole runs through most of the leaves, and a minor water stain in the foot margin of a few leaves. Still a good copy of a wholly engraved and well-illustrated work on battleships and naval strategy.

12º. Contemp. marbled boards, red sprinkled edges, very good internally, upper joint cracked, spineends worn, covers rubbed; a few fore-edges of Beveridge cropped by binder, affecting some text bookplate of Robert Thornton, Clapham xviii, (1), 120 pp.; The first work, is an English edition of a classic by Cornaro (1463-1566?). “The most remarkable Instance of the Efficacy of Temperance towards the procuring of Long Life, is what we met with, in a little book published by Lewis Cornaro, the Venetian; ... The Treatise I mention, has been taken notice of by several eminent authors, and is written with such a spirit of cheerfulness, Religion, and good sense, as are the natural concomitatnts of Temperance and Sobriety. The mixture of the old Man in it, is rather a Recommendation than a Discredit to it.”—Spectator Vol.3, No. 195.
