powers Of the King would be- ill.,.
it would M longer depend on His S' V

admitting t lat my instructions Ih, ,%
neyto give sucha plor,;s s g
that my sole motive for OFFERING

your government so to Appreciate
no longer to decline assentine to !.

ply to tie arguments again alyanr.4''
you, IN extenso, upon the queSt,%
his Majcsty's obligation to latif !
treaty, and confine myself to a s;, .s
remark; namely. that all the autSss
ties ci,edby you lay down the ns.a,
and happiness of mankind in gcn rr'
and of states and their respective lea' a
in particular, as a fundamental p prar'
pie. Aud, having. in my first nj.
shown the VIGOROUSLY hostile disms
ton prevailing throughout tile Unin
towards the interests of the Spari,S
monarchy, it necessarily follows, n,
when the objects of treaties are no, a
tanned, the ratification of that Of g,d
February, 1919, would, in like manner
become illusory; and. therefore, tht|
his Majesty'smotiyes for suspendinga,
we're founded upon a competent y i
of evident facts.
shall also leave it to the gene.,
sense of the rejecting part of MANKIND
to decide, whether the reasoning u,
rely on in stating the motives of ii. /
merican government for proposing h
other powers to acknowledge the i r.
VOTED provinces of Spanish Americ,.
and in exhibiting them as favorable nj
only to suffering humanity, but to h
interests of Spain herself, be not, in ID,
highest degree, specious: for, if such
maxims were to be adopted, nation,
could no longer count upon the intesi.

maintenance of that mutual amity and |
good understanding which it is equally
their duty and their interest to cult.
