Sir- I have attentively considered the
question propounded in the enclosed doc
uments, which were a few days since pre
sented to me under your direction,
i Ist. -Whether a Bermuda Vessl will be
allowed to bring West India produce to the
United States, fiomj Bermuda I wjiich had
been imported into that place from some
j other possession of his Britannic1 Majesty
in the West Indies ? I j
2d. Whether,v according tothe I naviga
tion act of the United States, which is to
take effect on the first of October next, a
vessel ownod in Bermuda can be allowed
to enter the United States and discharge
a cargo whici had been laden' oli board
in the West Indies, brought to Bermuda
unladen there, and again taken! on board?
As applicable to the first.question, I

upon the subject, who informed thatso far

confidence Of all classes both of the citi
zens and military; ij? the emancipation of
Venezuela, that they considered the event
to.be as certain as if dt had already been
achieved. It will e recollected that the
letter above referred to, states that about
a week prior to the) 1 1th of June " the In
dependent general! Bermudas attracked

very fair. The Serpent sht up his tail
through the water to the i)ieiht above
mentioned, which he heldkout of water
some time, waving it in thq air, and at
the. same time,' while his--ta'4- remained in
this position, raised his hea rather ieis
urly 15 or 20 feet, as if taking a view of
the surface of the sea. Amr remaining
in this situation a short tipe, he again
sunk into the water, disappeared, and was
not seefi after by any on boil.
The Serpent's body was HI iger in my
opinion than the mast of, an&hip l eveV

rough, and was shaped-scanetlTng', like an
eel's and his head like that if the. land

Whales-back was distinctly seen as well as
his spouting, the last time he appeared he
went ' down before the serpent came up.
The above was- seen -by all on board, a
mounting.to 15 or 18 persons, as well as
myself, with the exception of one woman.
During our view, the combatants had
passed a mile or more. The Whale was
