We learn by the French Papers that his Excellency
Sir GEORGE DON, the Lieutenant• Governor of Gib-
raltar, has issued a Proclamation, declaring the neu-
trality of that port, and forbidding any belligerent par-
ties to make the harbour of Gibraltar a place of ren-
dezvous for any warlike enterprise Whatever; or for
the equipment of any vessels, or for the bringing joid
the port any prize whatever, except in case of distress.
The following. is given by the Etoile, as the copy of
the Proclamation in question :
, His Majesty having, resolved, conformably to the
happy state of peace existing at present between him and
the Powers of Europe and America, to observe, and cause
to be observed, the most strict neutrality with regard total
the belligerent parties whose subjects and vessels may Cr&
quent the ports of his estates, the Lieutenant-Governor
has received from the Secretary of State for the Colonies
orders to make known his Majesty's intentions throughout
the territory under his jurisdiction. Therefore all subjects
of the said belligerent parties are forbidden W make
like
the
harbour of Gibraltar a place of rendezvous for any
.war
enterprise whatever, or for the purpose of facilitating
cas
ot
equipment; er, further, for bringing (except in
distress) any prize or portion of a cargo of the prizes
which they may take from the merchants of their advel-
series ; and all persons residing at Gibraltar are enjoined,
under penalty of incurring his Majesty's displeasure, of
abstain from lending assistance to armed vessels of eons
the said belligerent parties, in their hostile opiratic!:
against their enemies, should these vessels attempt to
e
stand in to this harbour."
