Note communicated by Lord Hawick to Mr.
Munroe, dated January loih, 1^07.
The undersigned, his majesty's principal
secretary of state »f foreign affairs, has re-
ceived his majesty's commands to acquaint
Mr. Munroe, that the French government
having issued certain orders, which in vio-
lation of the usages of war, purp rt to pro.
hibit the commerce of all neutral imtions
•'• ith his majesty's dominions, and also to
pi ivi nt such nations from trad ng with any
otner country in any articles, the growth,
produce or manufacture ot his majesty's
dominions. And the said government
having also taken upon itself to declare
hi. majesty's domuiior.s to be in a state of
blockade, at a time when the fleets of France
and her allies are themselves confined with-
in their own ports by the superior val r and
discipline of the British navy.
Such attempts on the part of the enemy,
g ving to his majesty an unquestionable
right "f retaliation, and warranting his majes-
ty in enforcing the same prohibition ot all
commerce with France, which that power
vainly hopes to effect against the commerce
of his majesty's subjects, a prohibition which
the superiority of his majesty's naval forces
might enable him to support, by actually in-
vesting the ports and coasts of the enemy
wiih numerous squadrons and cruizers, so
as to make the entrance or approach thereto
manifestly dangerous.
His majesty, 1 hough unwilling to follow
the example of his enemies, by proceeding
to an extremity so ditressing to all nations
not engaged in the war, and carrying on
their accustomed trade ; yet feels himself
bound by a due regard to the just defence of
the rights a id hit rest of his people, not to
suffer such measures to be taken by the ene-
my, without taking some steps on his part,
to restrain this violence, and to retort upon
tfem the evils of their own injustice. Mr.
Munroe is therefore requested to apprize the
merican consuls and merchants residing in
England, that his m.j sly has therefore
judged it expedient to order, that no vessel
shall be permitted to trade from one port to
another, both which ports shall belong to,
or be in possession of France or lier allies,
or shall be solar under their control, as Bri-
tish vesstls may not freely trade thereat :
and that the commanders of his majesty's
ships of war and privateers have been in-
structed to warn every neutral vessel coming
from a y such port, and destined to another
such port, to discontinue her voyage, and
not to proceed to Emy such port; and every
vessel, after being so wanted, or any'vessel
Coming from any such port, after a reasona-
ble time shall have been afforded for receiv-
ing information of this his majesty's order,
which shall be found proceeding to another
such port, shall be captured and brought in,
and, together with her cargo, shall be con-
demned as lawful prize : and that from this
time, all the measures authorized by the
law of nations, and the respective treaties
between his majesty and the different neu-
tral powers will be adopted and executed
with respect to vessels attempting to violate
the said order after this notice.
