PROCLAMATION.
Whereas, it has been ascertained, that a present bad been
delivered to an inhabitant of this island, in the name, or on
the part of one of the Foreign Persons under detention at
Longwood ; which present was soon afterwards returned, in
consequence of the person to whom it had been delivered be-
coming sensible that his acceptance of it, unless with the Go-
vernor's knowledge and authority, would have been a breach
of the proclamations in force. The Governor, nevertheless,
deems it expedient in enforcement of the abovesaid Procla-
mations (with reference also to the general injunction con-
tained in the warrant, dated 16th April. 18161, to give public
notice, and piddle notice is hereby given to all officers, in-
habitants, and other persons whatsoever, residing on, or re-
sorting to this island, that they not only are interdicted (as
by the Proclamation of 17th October, 1815), from holding any
correspondence or communication with the Foreign Persons
under detention on it, except only such as may be regularly
authorized by him, and (as further, by public notice of the
11th May, and Proclamation of 28th June, 1816), from re-
ceiving, &Beefing, or rendering themselves the channel for
the eutiveyance of any cotumunication ohatsoever, trans or to
the said persons, without his express authorization ; hut
where any unauthorized communication shad have been, or
may be conveyed, or attempted to be conveyed, it behoves all
those who art acquainted with it, to give the Governor imme-
diate information of the same (or the nearest Civil or Mili-
tary' Authority, should the case so require), in order that the
necessary steps may be taken thereupon, under pain of being
considered otherwise as pris y to the same, and held auswer-
able accordingly.
