Sin,
I bite this day had tha honor to receive your
letter, of tbe 23d [22dJ of May, by Mr. Parish,
and bave sent • note to lord Wellesley, requesting
an interview. Ha i* out of town, but will return
to-night or in tbe morning. The instructions con
tained in your letter, concerning tbe inequality,
supposed to be intended by this government, in the
state of our diplomatic relations, shall be executed
with tbe discretion which undoubtedly they require;
and I am persuaded, that tbe result will be perfect
ly setisfactory to tbe President. In tbe mean time,
I think 1 cen undertake to assure you, that
no change baa taken place in the opinion of lord
Wellesley, as announced in my private letter to you,
of tbe 4tb of January, that a mir#ter plenipoten
tiary of rank should ba seat to the United butts.
Certainly, no idea has been entertained here of a
permanent or long continued charge d’affairta. It
rould only be intended to lend one in the first in
stance. And 1 have reason to be confident, that
for tome time past it has been in agitation to ap
point a minister plenipotentiary without delay ; that
lord Wellesley has in fact thought of and mention
ed a person ; and that Me. Morier’s departure has
been put off in consequence. ,
In tha case of the Ckttapeake, I have already
stated be you, that I think there will be no difficul
ty, if tbe farther punishment of Berkley it not made,
on oul part, a sure gw Ron. Your instructions are
very clear, that this jit pot-lo be, peremptorily in
sisted on. '
1 have nothing to add f» my communication of
IheSoihult. concerning the British blorkades of
France, before the Beilin decree, except that }
mean to presa lord Wellesley on that subject, at our
next interview, as l did at our last. I shall not
fail, at the same time, to draw his attention to the
orders-in council and the intercourse act.
I nted scarcely say; that if events should make it
proper for me, in obedience to the President** com
mands, to return to America, (tearing uncharge d’
affaires) I shall lose no time in doing. so*. 1 have

William Pinkney, 4~c,
' Mr. Pinkney to Mr. Smith.
„ London, August 14 th IS 10.
Sir,
As lord Wellesley still withheld his long expect
ed answer to my note of the 30th of April, respect
ed-tbe British bluckades anterior to the Brrliu de
cree, and his written overtnre in the rase of the
Chesapeake, I sent him on the 8th inst. a letter, of
which a copy is enclosed. No importunity had
before been spared, which it became me to use.
> I need not trouble yon with comments on the
obvious unwillingness of this government to touch
the first mentioned subject, nr any connected with
its principles and practice lespecting blockades, or
with the system of the orders tn council. Justice
and policy both invite it to give tbe declaration,
which I have required; and certainly nothing has
been omitted, on my part, to induce it to tuke that
course. 1 fear, however, that the declaration will
be .declined; unless, indeed, ioid Wellesley sliould
; continue to evade my application, by returning no
answer to it-—a new practice, 1 think, which, mile
to he commended as it is, must 1 presume, if per
sisted in here, be reciprocated in America.
It is truly surprising, that, in the case of the
Chesapeake, there should betlic same backwardness.
1 can ronjectuie no motive for this hesitation to
propose in writing, terms arranged in conference
between lord Wellesley and myself, in an affair which
it is the manifest interest of England to settle as
soon as possible. It is now almost six weeks since
lord Wellesley last assured me (as he bad before
more than once assured me,) that he would put ine
m possesion of his. formal overture in this case im
mediately. He knows that you have been made
officially acquainted with that assurance; for 1
thought it advisable to submit to bis perusal, be
fore it was transmitted, (for ibe purpose principally
of avoiding misunderstandings) my short letter to
you, of the 6th oflaet month, which states, that,
u in the business of tbe Chesapeake, he will write
to me in a few days,” and further, that in that busi
f ness, “ 1 do not expect any difficulty.’'
J There ran be no misconception as td the terms
. t» be offered; for besides that they were stated
with great precision, in the .conference alluded id,
i ie my letter to you bf the 6th alt. at well as m
general antecedent interviews, I wrote lord Welles
ley, the day after that conference, .a private note of
Which a copy is transmitted, enclosing * memoran

lord Wellesley, on the case of the Chesapeake, ba tri

as would countenance such a step, I think it my dn^V '
ty to lor bear a little longer. t ■ v .j, *
Ills not impossible, that lord Wellesley’s back- i
warduess, to close the case of the Chesapeake, wills ».
me, may arise from a desire, that it should be mi**'
justed in America, through the new minister. If -
this weieso, however, he coqld have-no indue*'?
meut to conceal it from me, since he. is aware that ip:
have always entertained the tame desire. When l '
