iit'LlsMeences. No apprehension was entertained

th its strength, and of the unanimous lyjAlleS, of

:quence of which he was not 'only.unable, to
Lordship permission to laud, but besides,
for lie. name of tile Government, he expressly
bad it.
N.V itll this answer Gen. Campbell departed.

, About this time Captain Maitland, Com-
""If nder of the Venguer, requested the Inspector
the Port to furnish him with a boat-load of

AivY) and a report: sent up. to the Secretary of
ar and Navy, who not only approved his con-
't, hut ordered him to goon board theVengeur,,
and
tish tell the Captain and' the whole of the Bri-
to- Pflicers, that the measures taken with regard
13.1.1 '-aord Beresford had nothing to do with the
ti'll Nation, and that the' Government was
reaA
s4ncr to afford the Captain and Officers of the
vessel, as well as other British subjects, all
tio and assistance, according to the Law of Na-
-113, and the relations of friendship which have
to

John VI., the Government, and the Bri-
n " Nation and their King.
The said officer then proceeded to speak to
Beresford, and representing to him, in lively
the state of fermentation in which the

of the Government, that not only on no account
