Tit the official note whkh the und<>riinguud,
charge d'affaires of the United States of America,
had the honor to address to his excellency adnii
Ml Lobo, commander of tho itupcrkl Brazilian
cquadrou blockading the eoa?t* and ports of Bu?
ooe Ayres, under date of 1st of January last, it
ww reserved by the undersigned to i*escnt oo a 1
future occasion tbo vi*w? and (arinclple* profess
ed and pqt forth by the government of the Unit
ud'States On the law of blockade. In cooformi
ty to that Reservation the undersigned addn-sied bi<
eicelleney odialrel Lobo, and, if deemed worthy
of .(nMMMwkn. to that of hk imperial Majesty s
ministry, the following observations.
If the subject of blockade, so slmpk in iU ori
ginal application, now uivolves the most cowpli-1
rated questions of ma rati ate law among nations,
i is to be ascribed to abuses of power on one side,
too mtaeh condescension oo tho other, and to tbo
niulflttfrk of incidental cases which have arisen
?i precedents, establishing arbitrary and epheme
ral doctrines, sfoc* the breaking down of the
original bounds and land mark* ol mutual and
tinirenal rights.
Although the commerce of the Uuited States
be* been to n greater extent than any other, the
victim of those gigantic abuses of power, it hat
never suffered withont just complaints, Inin-i
vidnal caaos, and government of the said states,
against the principle and practice of every thing
ijkeanlmaginaiy blockade, the hydra of lawks*
o*>pr*eseion.
Thus M baa over bean Maintained by the Unit

Kasence of a naral power eoin|?tent to enforce |
simulteneons, constant and effectko oparatioo
en every point of such coatt, is Illegal through
out Ha whole rxtrut, even for the ports which
way be in actual blockade; otherwise every I
capture under a notified blockade would be legal; i
because the capture itself would bo proof of tbo
blockading fbree. This k, In general terms, one ,
of the fundamental rules of tho law of blockade,
as professed and practised by the government of
the United States, And if this principle k to
derive strength froug the enormity of consequen
ces resulting ft on a contrary practice, it could
not bo bettor sustain*! (ban by the terun of the
original decleralion of the existing Brsxilian
blockade, combined with its subsequent practical

in tbe month of February, aa the principal witness
was going into Kcoalarion lete et night, he waa
stopped by a foot pea, who presented a pistol
made u?e of threats and robbed him of what taouay
he hadatiout bis perK>n. The succeeding night
about the tame hour, the parson robbed-repaired
whb two friends to theacene of action 4n hopaa
that the lootned might egain be upon duty. They
discovered tha countryman standing In a rery
tutpiciona atti*u da, and Immediately apprehended
him. lie waa charged with tha robbary; hiaatory
waa confuted wxi contradictory, for in truth he
waa aa much alarmed as (he man who waa robbed

frightened out tM his wits, it is not reasonable to ,
eapeot much reasoa from him He was accord

l>?i'?()n robbed wasaa positive to hie ideality, tho*
the darkness of lha night would baire bid defiance
to tba beat pair of optic* in M'Alllsler'a shop. ,
The countryman finding tbe affair to assuase aw
unfavorable aspect, cad <tne law having gone thus

wlien hi* trial came on to prove an aft*?', which
wa? aalifar.iorily made out, aud his character also,
which waa proved to be an'.aceptionabln, by
highly respectable witnesses. When hU counsoi

him, by staling that it was unnecessary, aud charge
(ad tha Jury so dearly and diatinctly that aa im
