" You doubtless will have received, lone; ere
this reuches you, the late Impetial Decree,
regulating the consignment of Neutral Ves
sels, arriving 111 this Island.
I his Decree has deprived, even a Resident
patented Merchant, here, of the right of re-
(eivmg and disposing atlnsovjn, as well at the
property of his friend, except in cases where it
majrarrtvc to hu ovn uu:h!tert tn rotation.-
there are eight patented Merchants at
this place, five of which are Indigene:, and
three only, Americans.
It is now well ascertained, that it is the
intention of the. Emperor, that the business
of all vessels arriving here, whether directly
consigned or not, shall be done by said Mer
chants in rotation, and that Decree will be
very rigorovibly enforced.
A deputation of American Merchants have
lately bven on to (ion.iivcs, had an audience
oftlieLniperor, stio-.rly rem nstrutcd g.in-t
trieinjiuiice of the Decree, and pointed out
to him the destructive consequences which,
might tie" expected to ensue from, its being
enforced. He, however, tutlcicd them to
return, without giving them the smalUst ta
tisaethn whuttier.
I there fur: most tamettlj recommend to
ymt and all jou? friends, not to make ay m ire
shipments to this .Island, until some favor al
change takes placr, oj ' wlveh, you may b: assur-
tdt I shall give jju the earliest irformalU n."
