OF July last, and requests that the American
government and agents of neutral nations might
be made acquainted, that the Islands of Mart
nIque and Cdudaloupe are and have been block
AIDED from the 18th of jane preceding, by de.
tachments from the squadron under his com.
mand, IN order that there may be no plea for at

1t will, without doubt occur to YOU, sir. tl,at
such communication would have been more

importance and urgency Of the subject however
supercede the consideration of FORMS and iose
no time IN communicating to you the observsti
ons which the President deems it to require.
IL WIZ not escape your attention, that comma
dore Hoods letter is dated no less than three
months before it could have the effect of a no.i.
ii;aiion, and that besides this remarkable delay.
the aiedged blockade is computed from dre
more than one month prior to that of tue letter
itself But these circumstances, however i'm
poFtant IT may be, do not contitute the main OBJ
lection To the proceeding Of tic British comman.

cular port or ports were blockaded, by a force
actually before them. declares, generally, two
entire and considerable islands to DC in slate Of
