Among other conditions, Peter surrendered Azov to the Turks, but he refused to give up to Sweden any of the approaches to St. Petersburg. Charles was to be sent out of the Turkish dominions.
PETER THE THRICE-GREAT 103 After this failure, Peter returned to the north, and, in 17 13, ca|)tured another large portion of Finland from the Swedes. His internal reforms continued. A budget was drawn up, and the registration of births intro- duced. The exposure of weakly infants was prohibited, as well as... the carrying of poison or weapons likely to be used in sudden murder. The empire had already been divided into eight administrative sections, each under a governor, and now a senate of nine members was formed with supreme internal authority, even over the governors. After the last successes in Finland, the senate was brought to St. Petersburg. In the same year, 1714, the erection of stone buildings was prohibited in all other parts of the empire, with the aim and result of inducing a large number of artisans to work at the new city, which con- sisted already of between thirty and forty thousand houses.
