Yon magi Sir, have °blessed and known, ac-
tording to my inftraitioas at the time of the corn-
taunication of the Note of Lord Hawke(bury, to the
toreign Ministers reficling in London, the impreflion
'which this publication of the II rartgeli maxims of po..
'hied aqd focial morality could not fail to produce on
the mind of the Government with which you reticle
I think I ought to teturn to the fobje:l, T, therefore,
fund you officially a eopy of this note, and exprefsly
thane you, by order of his Majefly, to make it the

The projeft which the Englifh Government has
tonixised for the lafl half century, gradually to abo-
lies the tutelary fylletn of public law which unites
ltnd engages all ciiitiaed nations, developer itfelf with
a fearful progreffion. Will other Governments re-
frain from making nppo(etion to filch an anterprife
till there no longer exiles any moral bond which may
referee their rights, guarantee their engagements,
and proteft their integefls ?
" The Powers of the Continent have fen with
what audacity the faith of nathshas been fpnrted with
by this Government, and foie= treaties violated
swats before the; ware carried into execution. The
tilaritime nations every day experience its tyranny
There no longer exills any theoretical principle of
navigation, any written convention, which have not

every fea. Neutral States know that even in ufing
the tight, which dill remain to them with the most
timid citcurnfriNSion, they export theinfeives to infult,
to pillage, and to extermination.
•a. Thok States, is fine, which have the nnhappi•
sets to be at war, no more rely on any reciprocal '
principle of moderation and julli:e. All the bonds
cadging between them and neutral Powers are broker.
Approach to the coatis and entrance into the posts
and illands, though fittiate at the ditiance of acv
leagues from the Ratios.. of their fquadrons, have been
prci-liihited by limple proclamations.
" 'thus the Englifh Government has hitherto op.
poled to power, according to its particular po.
fition, a maxim injin ious to its kionunr, and fuliver-
five of all its rights. It now attacks them altogether,
and the more completely to attain its end, dirells its
