DIR.
The zeal with which have endeavored
to preserve the harmony and good under
standing between Spain and the United
Ssases. has caused me to read with parsicu-
lar regret, the article of the presidents
message, sent TO congress the Sd instant,
respecting the political relations between
the Uuited States and the king ray master,
AS in the exposition to which | allude,
thereexiss in my opinion several mistakes
of delicate and important tendency, al.
tho render TO the president due justice.
In regard 10 the motives which may have
caused this apparent want OF correctness,
vet nv character, imposes on me the task
of entering into an examination OF some
of his assertions, and Of demonstrating that
either from the want OF exact Information,
or owing TO defective translations, they APP
pear In some cases not altogether cor
rect.
In the article OF the presidents message
relative 10 Spain, after maintaining that the
negotiations for the settlement of the ex-
listing differences had not had satisfactory
issue be says:
"Speilations during the former war, for
which she had Formerly acknowledged her
self responsible, have been refused to be
compensated, but on conditions eaecting
other claims, 10 no wise connected with
them. Yet The same practices are renew
ed in the presen, war, and are already OF
great amount
his very well known thar in a state OF
war, there exists and viii probably ever ex-
ist, eer,ain abuse efforce conhGed to sub
altern hands. Even the United States
themselves have not been an exception to
this genera; rule, and during the short Pc.
ROD of hos,llities with France, in the year
seventeen hundred and ninety eight, not
wi,hs,anding no privateers were armed
and that their protecting forces consisted
only of small number OF frigaies neu,rals
experienced from them many injuries,
well authenticated by the numerous claims
on this government by the injured pow
ers, principally on the part of Denmark and
Sweden.
Probably there might have existed last
war some abuses of this nature, although
