KNOW ALL MEN,

That according to private instructions given to our Deputy, he on the 10th of May issued a Protest on our behalf in the following words:
                "Whereas, the undersigned was by Commission dated Feb. 27, 1843, appointed Deputy for his Majesty KAMEHAMEHA III., to the British Commission for the Government of the Sandwich Islands; under the Provisional Cession thereof unto Her Most Gracious Majesty VICTORIA, Queen of the United Kingdoms of Great Britain and Ireland;
                "And whereas, in the prosecution of business by the Commissioners, many acts have been passed and consummated affecting the interests of Foreigners, resident on these Islands, and acts which virtually abrogate the bona fide obligations of the Government existing at the period of the Provisional Cession; to which acts the said KAMEHAMEHA III., did refuse assent through me his Deputy;
                "And whereas, by an order issued April 27, 1843, to the Acting Governor of Oahu, and by subsequent orders, dated May 8, 1843, issued to all the Governors of these Sandwich Islands, the Commissionors, to wit, the Rt.

                "Now, therefore, Be it known to all men, that I, the said Deputy for the said King KAMEHAMEHA III., do by these Presents, enter this my most solemn Protest against the acts, especially those above re-
