Y new Order of the British Council, to be
issued on the - of - 1918.
His Royal lIilghncss, The Prince Regent IN
Council.
WHEREAS it has been represented to us
by the Lords of the Admiralty, that the
government of the u. States has dared to
contest the sovereignty of the British realm
OF the Ocean, and that the fr-built frgates
of that governments, manned they are by
rebels and outlaws, have contrary to al
oar expectations actually encountered our
ships Of war in open batte-And whereas
this opposition has IN manifold instances
proved destructive to the lives of our 10y !
subjects, and threatens TO prove ruinous TO
our ships and subversive OF the spirit Of our
Inavy.--And whereas owing the despe-
rate valour OF the seamen of the. United
States, or to the superior quality Of ,heir
powder or ball, or the greater weight of
their metal, or some other cause not vet
ascS IT 'ined. our loyal frgates have NJ
chance of meeting in fair combat the afore-
SAID bpilcfrigates OF the enemy And
whereas TO put our frigaSes in better trim
Tor eucounteriug this deadly enemy, it was
lateIS found necessary for the board of Ad
miraity to give especial orders for fifty adj
dirionai seamen to man our frgates-And
whereas the fate of the Java has proved
our SGtiYrctiou that even this precaution IS
unavailng, and chat i've hundred of cur
brave tars arc unequal to four hundred OF
the enemy Therefore, De IL ordered,
from ahnmane regard to the lives of our sub
jccts, that henceforth no single frigatc be
permitted TO enter the lists with one Of the
enemy +; but that in wise imitation of the
policy Of the French in regard to our navy
oar own frigates should sail in pairs, and
with that advantage should encounter and
defeat, Il they can, the single fr;pates {
the y. States-itis provided, in the mean
time, until farther Instructions. that our Us
be permitted to sail alone: and do all the
mischief they can inflict upon the oyster
