any greater inconvenience than was absolutely in•
separable for carrying into effed his Majesty's first
determination to countered the designs of his ene-
mies, did make certain exceptions and modifications
expressed in the said Order of the 11th November,
and in certain subsequent orders of the 25th of No-
vember, and of the 18th of Dec. 1807, and the 30th
