Santiago, March 17, 1866.
Sir: I have the honor to transmit to your excellency a copy of the decree which his excellency the President of the republic issued yesterday, prohibiting neutral vessels which communicate with the ships of the Spanish squadron, or furnish therewith fuel, provisions, ammunition, or any other kind of supplies, from touching in any of the ports of the republic.
Asking that your excellency will have the goodness to inform your government of this communication, I hasten to reiterate the assurance of the perfect consideration with which I am your obedient servant,
ALVARO COVARRUBIAS.
