(Circular.)
Sir:
The several attempts already too successfully made, & particularly a recent one countenanced & promoted by the British Governor of New Providence, to pour into the United States Convicts, have induced Congress to pass the recommendation of which I have the honor to transmit to your Excellency a Copy herewith enclosed. I trust this recommendation will command the earliest attention of your Legislature and that they will take effectual measures to vindicate the honor of their Country & put a stop to such nefarious Attempt.
