You Will herewith receive a printed copy

sident. on the revocation Of the Berlin and Mi
ian DEGREES. You will, however, let the
french government understand, tina. .his has
been done on the ground, that the repea, of
these DEGREES does involve an extinguIshment
OF all the edicts Of France actually involving
our neutral rights, and that the reservations
under The expression, it is understcod.' are
not conditions precedent, affecting the opera.
ton OF the repeal; and on the ground also.
that the United States are not pledged against

1t Is to be remarked. moreover, that, in issu-
ing the proclamation, it has been presumed

not only favored by the natural connexion of
the policy and Justice of reversal of that Sc.

Foreign Office, Feb. eOth, 1911


The undersigned. his Majesty's principal
Secretary of State for foreign affairs, has re-
ceived his Majesty's commands, to inform Mr..
Pinkney, envoy extraordinary and minister
plenipoten,iay from the United States of A.
meIica, that the king has judged il expedient
TO signify his command to The lords comtnlssi-
oners of the admiralty. to establish strict
blockade of the Coast and ports of Spain, from
CiIon to the French territory which will be
maintained and enforced, according to the usa-
ges Of war, acknowledged and observed in ST.
miar cases
Mr.. Pinkney is therefore requested TO ap d.
prize the American cOnsuls and merchants,
residing in England, that The whole of the
Spanish coast aforementioned, is, and must
he considered as in a state Of blockade s. that,
from this time, all the measures, autho ised by
the law of nations, and the respective treaties,
between his majesty aud the different neutral
powers, will be adopted and executed. with
respect to vessels attempting to violate the
said blockade, after this notice.
The undersigned requests Mr.. Pinkney to
accept the assurances Of his high cOnsderati.

SIR,
As the ground on which the French no :.
vernment has deemed it expedient to place
the revocation OF its DEGREES, may sugre st to
It the further pretcxt of requiring a restorati-
on OF the French property seized here under
the non-lntercourse law, as condition to their
restoring the American property condemned
or sequestered under the French decree of
March, you are authorised, in case a restora-
ton can be thus and not otherwise obtained.
to acquiesce IN such an arrangement, and, If
necessary, 10 give to such arrangement n CON
yentionA form, requiring the sanction of the
Senate. You wall, however, take care to a.
VOID any expressions Implying an ac!,no wlege-
ment on the pa,t of the United States. thot he
non-ntercourse law, which was not retrospec.
tive, has any analogy to the French decree, the
injustice OF which essentially consists in its re
Prospective operation. In truth the arrange
ment on the part of the United States will be
little more than nominal, as will appear by the
enclosed copy ola letter from the Treasury
department. 1t may be proper TO remark thet
the third section of the act of May, for the re
covery OF for'cisares underthenon-iftercou
law, contemplated violations bv our own citi
zens, rather than French violations, which
could not have been Of sufficient Importance
to have called for such provision, pointing
particularly at them.

country--That the king was considerably
better. and had exhibited himself beforeIhe
public at Wndsor-That the Regency bill
had been read twice in Parliament, and it
was expected 10 pass the day the Thistle
