your despatch under reply, that I had already issued a proclamation pro-
hibiting the exportation of all warlike stores from the Colony, except under special permission, for a period of 6 months from the 28th November. I have not there-

thought it
necessary to
issue a
further proclamation
similar to that which formed
the first enclosure to your
