The undersigned his aaaiesty's principal
Secretars Of State Cor lorci9n affairs, had The
honor 20 reeeiye the ofici.(i letter addressed
to him By Mr. Pinkney, minister plenipo-
Tertiary Of The United States, respecting the
orders in council issued BY his majesty on
ihe 9TH OF ja,ltary ana III of November,
1907.
lie has laid that letter hefors the King,
and he is commanded 40 assure Mr.. Pins
ney that the answer to Tie proposal which
NSr. Pinckncy was instructed % bring for

that die renewed application winch was l.r-.

which has arisen in Europe. have met with,
such reception IN France, 2s would have
rendered The compliance of his majesty with
that proposal consistent as much with his
n,alesty's own dignity and with the inter
ests of his people. as it would have been
with his majesty'a disposition towards the
ulnted States. ;nhepriiy there is new no
is likely % BE realized and the undersign-
ed is therefore commanded to communicate
to Mr.. T'inckney the decision which, under
the circumstances as they stand, his maies-
ty feels himself compelled, however upwil-
iingkr, to adopt.
The lhitlgated measure OF retaliation ar.
nounced by his majesty in the orders in
council Of the 9TH January, and the further
extension Of that measure Gan extern
sion in operation but rot in principle)
by the orders lii council Of November, were
unfounded Gas has been already repeatedly
awowed by his majesty on the unquesti-
enable right Of his majesty to retort apon
the enemy the evils of his own iniustice''-
and upon the consideration that 6 if third
parties incidentally suffered by these retail
atory measures they were to seek their re-
dress from the power by whose original
aggression that retaliation waso ccasioned. y |
His majesty secs norhing IN the embargo
laid on by the president Of The u. States OF
America, which varies this original and
simple state Of the question.
If considered as a measure of impartial
hostility against both belligerents, the en-
barge appears to his majesty to have been |.
manifestly unjust, as, according to every !!
principal of justice, that redress ought to /
have been first sought from the party ORR :
ginating the wrong. And his majesty can
not consent to buy off that hostility which
America ought not to have extended to him,
