Ii is in no wise extraordinary, that after
th. events in the Peninsula, and the hannv
Event which has terminated the war in
Costa Firma, the report alluded 10 and
contradicted in Your Exrellency's letter.
should have heen propagated partly ,hro'
tile vengeance of our enemies, and partly
owing 10 the creduiiiy of certain persons,
whose fears prepare for themselves dangers
and disasters at every stcp.
~.Eor myself, Your Excellency may be as
s,lred, that, independent of your respecta

never could believe thai your government
entertained such AN idea al least | render
ed this justice 10 IL nation thai had rcli
giously observe towards us hitherto, that
neutrality which it had prescribed to Itself
from the commencement of the war.
Your E~XceHency may confidently believe
that the alarm alluded to never prevailed

taken by INT in fnrtherance of fresh opera
