PROCLAMATION RAISING THE BLOCKADE OF CERTAIN

PORTS。; May 12; 1862。



BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA:



A Proclamation。



Whereas; by my proclamation of the 19th of April; one thousand eight

hundred and sixty…one; it was declared that the ports of certain

States; including those of Beaufort; in the State of North Carolina;

Port Royal; in the State of South Carolina; and New Orleans; in the

State of Louisiana; were; for reasons therein set forth; intended to

be placed under blockade; and whereas the said ports of Beaufort;

Port Royal; and New Orleans have since been blockaded; but as the

blockade of the same ports may now be safely relaxed with advantage

to the interests of commerce:



Now; therefore; be it known that I; Abraham Lincoln; President of the

United States; pursuant to the authority in me vested by the fifth

section of the act of Congress approved on the 13th of July last;

entitled 〃An act further to provide for the collection of duties on

imports; and for other purposes;〃 do hereby declare that the blockade

of the said ports of Beaufort; Port Royal; and New Orleans shall so

far cease and determine; from and after the first day of June next;

that commercial intercourse with those ports; except as to persons;

things; and information contraband of war; may from that time be

carried on; subject to the laws of the United States; and to the

limitations and in pursuance of the regulations which are prescribed

by the Secretary of the Treasury in his order of this date; which is

appended to this proclamation。



In witness whereof; I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal

of the United States to be affixed。



Done at the city of Washington; this twelfth day of May; in the year

of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty…two; and of the

independence of the United States the eighty…sixth。



ABRAHAM LINCOLN。



By the President:

WILLIAM H。 SEWARD; Secretary of State。
