to the Nlinincr OF the Public Treafur
SIR,
! had the honor of receiving your letter on the
tnbjecf of the claim made by Msflrs. Nicklin and
Griffith, of Philadelphia.
With regard to the facts which you alledge,
viz. =" that this is an Engih houIe, doing only
buinefs for Englifh merchants that the fhp
Nsev- 5erjcy was loaded from the Engliih Fatto-
rles at Canton. and that fhe belonged to Epglh
merchants" Iknoev nothing from any document
az my togcJion. The Only written evidence ap-
plying to this cafe, within my reach, ia the re-
cord report of the American Commiffon TO
which you alude, and which is directly adverfe
to the !uggefiion you have made for find that
the Commflioners united in admitting the Nszy-
Jeyiey to have been American property ; and
that the protet Of one Of the members of that
board agann the ultimate decifon of the others,
was founded, not on the fact of her being Enc.
Hb property, but on that of the claimants not
having purified their remedy aeainft the cap.
tors, to Its proper consequence, viz. to an aiIu-
rance that they were unable to pay.
On the other hand, though have as already
ftated, no written document, have had much
verbal information which furnifhes ftronc pre-
fHmptive evidence of two faGts-lf, that the
NezV- Jerjcy was partially or altogether Eagliih
property; and, 2dly. that, whether American
or Engiifii, he was injured, aud that no lois was
ny thc claimants.
The circumstances which render the irR of
thefe facts probable, are, that one, if not both
the partners of this houfe were, recently before
the fitting ont of the ffip Mesv- eycy, the clerks
and carriers of pattern cards for manufacturing
houes in Great-Britain that they have been
notorioully the commifIion agents of fuch houf.
cs hnce; that they were not in a condition to
fit out fhp of the value of the MeSy- TeyEp
with their own means; and that if they had az
hitance, 1t mutt have been derived from BriHB
fa'9'cet, as it has not been even pretended they
have had any American support.
The circumstances rendering the fecond fan
probnlir. is in the knowledge of all men ac
quai;lted with commerce, as conducted in the
United States, viz. that much property commit
ted TO the feas on long voyages, and in fate OF
war, IS always injured. Whence the broba6iiify
that the preient claim is purified, not on ac
count Of the oasnfbIe owners, but of the in.
iurers. If tbeje HJiwer5 are A,uerieaus, tbey
haze ben ambly PAID in fb-ir profits, svbicb in
1897 scere equal to 90 Per cent. per nnnu,l. on
thrir fayoii@l nMd if EngljS tbcy cannot CONG
qOiskin tie proVifon5 offbe treaiy.
Such is the amount of the verbal information
have received in this cafe, which at the fame
time think II neceliary TO obferve has been re-
ceived without the fanction of an oath.

Highetf confederation,

was made by the miniaer OF the trcafury of
one hundred hxty four thoufand francs more,
he has thought that he conferred great favor.
Nay, he contcRded for 4 great while that no
thing az all fl,ould be paid.
in vain have we remonfrated that Mr.. Arm
arong had no RICH: TO interfere with this buff
nefs, that he was only to decide upon thof-
claims whc the American BOARD of Commit
TONERS had not admitted. TIE French Mi
hitter has thought proper to ae in concert with
him, and We could only obtain the fun which
we have already mentioned.
The lofts therefore of ieyen hundred ninety fix
thoufand francs. about oae hundred and for
ty-irven thoutdnd dollars, proceeds only fro,n
Mr.. ArmGrong's having extended his fcneti-
ons beyond the powers conferred upon him,
dtrom his not having formed correct iudg-
mcnt of the rights Of the American Uuterwri-
ters on the rettItu.ioss Of the veiiels of their
nation, ordered even by the Tribunals or the
enemy, which acknowls lss the capt uie to have
been u?iuit.
MIR. ArmRrong has in fatt eilabliHied as 4
principle in the cafe OF the New-Ie,ity, that
priva.eers have always right to capture Anle-
rican vetel', hnce thefe never put to lea with
out being injured in America.
We coulider this doctrine as 4 very great
commercial and political misfortune
AS you will continue to carry on trade, &
If You do not the American nation always will
Garry on trade, we think that it would be very
neceiiary that your government ihould declare
| ito fe"t. of this tranfat,ion, and difayow in
arong terms The doctrine. of Mr. Armar,,c
which all the nations Of Europe will othcrwiie
quote as precedent againtt the United States.
