The undersigned have the honor 80 &C

inst. communicating the substance of the
observations which they HAD made in the
conference ofthe ICth, upon the different
points sevrSd TO in the note of the undcr-
signed of the 18th inst.
The views CT the undersigned, with
respect to the second article, being pre-
ciscly the same with those stated by the
British p .enipotcntiarles. there will be
no dill cuity iii framing q CLAUSE embracing
the objects contemplated by both par
ties, and which shall be free from am6igu-
ity.
The explanation gwen by tie British
pleupotentiaries upoa that part of the Sd
article which the undersigned apprehended
might be Liable tn construction in refer
enCe to the Injian trade, not intended by
enher party, is perfectly satisfactory. But
they regr that they cannnt acccAe to the
alterations proposed in other respects by
the British pienipotcntiaries to the article.
which had been offered by the undersigned,
particularly as they affect the privilege Of
inland navigation by the river Saint Law
renee a3d By the waters flowing from lake
Champ,an, nor have they found it practi-
cable to,trame any article compatible with
the different views entertained by the two
parties respecting the Intercourse between
the u. S. and Canada. They therefore re-
Cur to the proposal made il their note of
the 18th inst. 20 omit that article aitogcth.
er, that proposal not having oeen noticed in
the note of the British plempo,entiaries of
the Doth inst.
They m Ike the same offer as 70 the 5th
article of the contre hrojet.
And thirdly, they hereby renew the pro-
posai made verbally IN the conference Of
the 10TH inst. to substitute for the two Sc
parate articles, one placing the u. S. in
their intercourse witl the British possessi-
ons in India, on the footing OF the most ia
vored European nation.
The unders gnei request to be made &C
quaiated with The Diet mnation Of t;,a Bri-
