SIR,
have the honor TO acknowledge the
receipt Of your letter under date the 25th
inst.
On the Esd Of February, 1903, his ma
ies,y's minister in America declared TO tie
government Of the United States " his ma
~jesty's earnest desire to see the
Of the world restored to that freedom which
is necessary for It's prosperity and his rca-
diness to abandon the system, which had
been forced upon him, whenever the enemy
should retract the principles which had rem
dered it necessary"
/ am commanded by his majesty to re-
peat that declaration, and 10 assure you that,
whenever tie repeal Of the French DEGREES
shall have actually taken effect, and the
of neutral nations shall have been
restored to the condition in which it stood
previously to the promaulgation Of those de-
erees, his majesty will feel the highest sa-
tisfac,ion in relinquishing a system, which
the conduct Of the enemy compelled him
to adopt.
l have the honor to be, with the highest
consideration, Sir, your most obedient and
humble servant,
