Sir: I have the honor to inclose herewith three printed copies of the Hawaiian government’s proclamation, to carry into effect the treaty of commercial reciprocity between the United States and this kingdom.

Nothing more is necessary to be done here in the premises, except to instruct the collector general of the customs to admit free of duty articles from the United States named in article 2 of the treaty, made contingent on a like instruction being given by the United States Government to admit free of duty articles from these islands named in article 1.

With great, &c.,

HENRY A. PEIRCE.
