FROM LAST

FOREIGN OFFICE, JUNE 5, 1818.
Earl Granville, her Majesty's Ambassador at Paris, has trans-
mitted to Viscount Palmerston, her Majesty's Principal Secretary
of State for Foreign Affairs, an official letter (of which the follow-
ing is a translation), which has been addressed to Earl Granv
inf ille
by the Count Mole, French Minister for Foreign Affairs, notiyg
the establishment of a blockade of the ports of Mexico, against all
vessels, except British packet boats, employed in the conveyamce of
the mails :
(TRANSLATION. )
My Lonn,—The Mexican Government having refused to re-
dress the numerous grievances for which the Minister Plenipoteo-
tiary of the King, at Mexico, had been directed to demand reparal-,
tion, the Commander of the French naval forces before Vera Cruz"
has found himself under the necessity of adopting, as by
his in-,
structions lie was authorised to do, the measures which in such
case, the dignity of France, and the justice of its claims, re-
quired.
Accordingly all the ports of Mexico have been declared to be in
state of blockade; and this blockade, which became effective so far as
regards Vera Cruz, from the lgth of April last, will, without del of
.
have taken effect in like manner with respect to the other ports o
Mexico. In making known to you ilif!SC measures, I hasten, my
Lord, to add, that the orders given oy the Government oft
King for insuring the execution of them are so conceived is
e to
reconcile the practical exercise of a legitimate r!,ttlit, with the re-
spect due to the independence of neutral flags, and with the sin-
cere desire to cause the least possible inconvenienne to the
navigation of neutral vessels. Of this the Governmeot of her
Britannic Majesty will find a special proof in the measure whiell 0'"
ernpts British packet boats employed in the conveyance of correspoo'
dente, from the application of the rules of the blockade. This eA"
emption has appeared to us to be an indirect consequence of the
littoral principle sanctioned by the 13th article of the Post Office
Convention of 14th June 1833, which authorises the continuation
of the Post Office arrangements between the two countries, even
in
case of war.
I request you to be so good as to convey the present notification
to the knowledge of the Government of her Britannic 'Majesty.
(Signed) MOLE.

reo
one of the Birmingham deputation, Mr. Salt, we think, began

that this was tantamount to ca oat,.
