UNITED STATES CONSULATE.
Monterey, Carlifornia, August |, 1874


SIR | have the honor to inform you that an order
has been issued by this Departmental Governor,
bearing date LIST January Of the present year, prohb
itlng the sale OF merchandise from on board of all
vessels engaged in the whale fishery that may arrive
at the ports OF this Department SIX months after that
date.
| am perfectly aware that this edct does not ill.,
fringe upon any treaty with foreign ms, but the
whaling business is prosecuted with success by a
large number OF American vessels on the North west
coast OF America, II Is of great benefit to those YES
sells TO touch at the ports of San Francisco and Mon
terey for provisions and recruiting the health Of their
mariners.
The long established custom Of the Mexican su-
thoritles in California has permitted whaling vessels
arriving at its ports to sell small quantity Of mer-
ohandse for the purpose above mentioned, for which
privilege the maritime dunes have sometimes been
e1acted, and at others charge has been made
than ten dollars for anchorage fees.
Whaling ships cruising upon the Northwest coast
of America will hardly receive intelligence of a
change IN the maritime regulations Of California in
such limited time that named in the aforesaid de-
cree, and according TO their custom will steer for
this coast, after long cruise, in the expectation of
obtaining their supplies OF refreshments for the resto
ration OF the health Of their Mariners but on their
rival here they will find themselves obliged TO pro-
cure money at great discount on their owners, or
perhaps not be able TO procure it at all and will be
debarred the means Of refreshing their crews which
always have at least one-haf Ill of the scurvy
Whaling ships have long been accustomed TO re-
ceve on board, on their departure from the United
States, small quantity of merchandise for purchss.
ing their supplies OF refreshments foreign parts,
and, by tact consent on the part of the authorities
IN California have been permitted dispose of that
merchandise.
would respectfully suggest TO you that if il were
possible, 10 obtain order from the General Gov
eminent 10 the local authority Of this Department
commanding permission 10 be given for the sale Of
goods to the amount of five hundred dollars by all
whaling ships arriving at this coast it would greatly
assist those vessels, also IN a much greater degree
be favorable TO the inhabitants.
have the honor to be, sir, your most obedient
servant,

ter, &c. &c, that he received few days since q

having been at sea some seven months, he came TO
anchor In that port In order 10 make the necessary
repairs and recruit the ships company, expecting 10
remain for that purpose about sixteen days; that be-
fore the repairs were completed, and three days be-
fore the time he had appointed for his stay had ex
pired, and without alleging any violation Of the laws
Of the country, the Governor Of the place issued his
orders TO MIR Waterman TO leave the port in twelve
hours, giving as the only reason for this procedure
The trouble 1t gave the custom house officers TO look
after the crew OF the Brsgsnzs TO prevent SNUG.
Cling, when in fact there nothing on board SAID

this act Of the Governor Of Acapulco is without the
