The PRESIDENT hAn laid before Congress the
Report of the SECRETARY of STATE, concerning
the applications JIWIR by .persone requesting to be
accredited as Consido, on behalf of the Isertepen-
detit Governments,- of- South Anielica, by the
Government of the United Stater. • These applica-
tions, it appear!, have been received with a degree
of caution that argues a reluctance on the pert of
the Government to finally commit itself while
the result of the great emiteet now carrying on in
South etosetica remains uncertain. T.he Report
admits that Consuls are received by the Gneero-
ment of the United States from acknowledged
Sovereign rowers with whom they have no trert. ;
but, on the authority of Varrt:i., it that the
appointment cannot be carried folly into e ffect
without recogiliziog the authority of the Sovereign
from who,n it proceeds.
