riNT: a
me a despatch from Lord Russell, of which your
Excellency will find a copy hereunto annexed.
It is an answer to my despatch of the Ist (13th) July
last, which you were invited to communicate to the Prin-
cipal Secretary of State of her Britannic Majesty.
The overtures which he had set forth in that document
were dictated to us by the desire to arrive at an unier-
standing.
In receiving the observations which they have
sug-
gested to Lord Russell with the attention whichoe ncalwaysluionspay to the opinions of her Britannic iNinje,ty.Government,
we cannot but regret that we must come to the c
that we have not attained the end which we had proposed
to ourselves.
From the moment that this discussion could only end in
establishing and in confirming the divergence of our views,
it would bo too contrary to our conciliatory disposition for
us to seek to prolong it, and we believe tbat in this we are
not acting at variance with the sentiments of the Principal
Secretary of State of her Britannic Majesty.
We prefer to fix our attention only upon the essential
points of his despatches, upon which we find ourselves
agreed, at least in intention.
Her Britannic Majesty's Government desire to see
promptly re-established in the Kingdom of Poland a state
of things which shall restore tranquillity to that country,
repose to Europe, and security to the relations of the
Cabinets.
We entirely share in this desire, and all that can depend
upon us shall be done to realise it.
Our august Master continues to be animated by the most
benevolent intentions towards Poland, and by the most
conciliatory towards all foreign Powers. To provide for
the welfare of his subjects of all races and of every religi-
ous conviction is an obligation which his Imperial Majesty
has accepted before God, his conscience, and his people.
The Emperor devotes all his solicitude to the fulfilment of
that obligation.
As regards the responsibility which may be assumed by
his Majesty in his international relations, those relations
are regulated by public right. The violation of those
fundamental principles can alone involve responsibility.
Oar august Master has constantly respected and observed
those principles with regard to other States. His Majesty
has the right to expect and to claim the same respect on
the part of the other Powers.
You will be pleased to read and give a copy of this de-
spatch to the Principal Secretary of State of her Britannic
Majesty. Receive, 6:c.,
