CERTIFICATE.

hereby certify, that in the year 1903, exam
rled the Ore banks on the above mentioned lands,
and found the ore to be of very superior quail
ty, and in very great abundance. The ore banks
consist of three mountains, and such is the faci-
ty of getting the ore, that in my opinion one man
will be able to raise much Will supply one
furnace. The proper place for furnace is not
more than ! of a mile from the banks, and for Il
forge that may be worked with four hammers :;
about miles distant on good road, there is al
so an abundance OF wood to supply the furnace
and forge, and large quantity of White LINE.
STONE near the furnace seat / am of opinion
that there are two good seats for forges, (cXclu-
sive OF the above mentioned) each to act with
one hammer, within of mile of the furnace
upon the whole, solemnly declare, that in my
opinion (and have been for many years acquant-
ed with the qualities of ore, and the proper ma
nagement of Iron Works. the above property has
more advantages i'll every respect, for the esta-
biishment of IRON WoRKs than any have ever
seen. ADAM CLACKNER

shall pay all the attention To- the instructions
contained IN, your letter OF the SIN of January,
which is due TO their great Importance. AS soon
as am sufficiently possessed of the subject,
shall ask conference with lord Hawkesbnrv to
propose TO ms government convention between
the two nations Tor the adjustment of the points,
and on the principles of the project you have sent
me. l hope to be able to commence the business
in week or ten days, and hatter myself that the
negotiation will be productive of real advantage
to the United States. Should it even not succeed
III all its objects, the attempt must nevertheless
be considered as "a very satisfactory proof of a
strong desire IN our government to preserve, or
just ground, the friendship of this country, and
is likely, by the explanations to which it nay
lead alone, to have that tendency. am, how
ever, far from thinking it improbable that a suit
able convention may be formed, especially on
some ofthe points that are deemed interesting.

Extract Of a letter from Mr. Madison to Mr..
Monroe
DEPARTMENT OF STATE,
Nav %, 1907


In my letter of March 10, to the Joint COM
mission, it signifed that ina conventional
arrangement on the subject of boundaries, it
would be inconsistent with the views of the Pre-
sident, to open any part of Louisiana TO British
trade with the Indians. From the evident solicit
tude ofthc British government on THIS point, it
is highly probable that the determination of the
President will be bar to any adjustment of that
part of the dftei ences between the two coun-
tries; nor is it very probable, considering the
jealousy and want of information on the Brtish
SIDE, that independently fthat obstacle the adj
Justment would 1T this time be concluded. Tha,
you may not however be without any informant
on which might contribute tc its accuracy, or put
you on your guard against propositions milita
ting against any of our Just pretensOns, trans
init herewith copies OF a communication from IL,
governor of New-York, and Of another from
the governor of Vermont. With respect to tn
last it may be sufficient merely to save the right
of correcting the alleged error at future dsy
With respect to the subjec of the former it NAV
be proper either to leave that also open 10 future
discussion, or rather to provide for Joint exa
mination and report relative to the islands and
channels in the St. Laurence, &c. The most OBJ
vious and convenient demarkation would seem TO
be the channel best fitted tor navigation But as
a more equal division of the islands might posi-
bly, be made without losing sight of sufficient
channel for common use, and military positi-
ons may be INVOKED III the case, it may be mos.
safe and satisfactory to both parties, to proceed
on more thorough and impartial information than
is now possessed by either address these
communications to ordinary minister at Lon
don, merely because the subject has not been
formally transferred to the joint commissioners
They will of course be for the use of the latter, if
this branch OF the negotiation should remain in
their hands.

Soon after my last requested an interview
with Lord Hawkesbury, which took place on

had received your instructions to propose to his
government the regulation by convention of GER
tain points, which was persuaded both countries
would find their advantage in placing on explicit
and equitable ground. / stated TO his lordship
the concerns it was desired thus to regulate, in
which complied strictly with your views, and
assured him that the object of the President was
to nix the friendship OF the two nations on the
most solid basis, by removing every cause which
had tendency in their intercourse or other rela-
tons, especially in time of war, TO disturb it. In
the conversation entered into detail on every
point, in which / was met by his lordship with
an apparent Candor, the sincerity of which had
no reason to doubt, which manifested DISPOSE
