DEPARTMENT OF STATE,
Washingion, Oct. IS, 1872

Washington, Oct. IS, 1925.
SIR: During the last summer,a large French
feet visited the American seas, and the coast OF
the United States. Its object naturally gave
rise to much speculation Neither here, nor
through YOU, at Paris, was the Government OF
The United States made acquainted with the
views Of that Of France, i'll sending out so con-
siderable an armament. The President con-
ceives it due to the friendly relations which hap
pily subsist between the two nations, and to the
franknes by which he wishes all their inter-
course 10 be characterised, that the purpose OF
anv similar movement, hereafter, made IN
season ofpeace, should be communicated to this
Government. You will, therefore, inform the
French Government of his expectation that such
a communication will, in future, be, according
IL. made. The reasonableness, of it, in time
of peace, Of which France shall enjoy the bless
ings, must be quite apparent. The United
States having, at the present period, constant
" to maintain, in the Gulf of Mexico, and on
the coasts of Cuba and Porto Rico, naval
force on service beneficial to all commercial
nations, it would appear to be quite reasonable,
that, il the commanders of any American squad
ron, charged with the duty of suppressins plra-
CIV. should meet with those Of a French squad
ron, tne TCSptSUNS oOJSShS VI SOt'
known TO each. Another consideration TO
which you will advert, in friendly manner, IS
the present condition Of the Islands OF Cuba
and Porto Rico The views of the Executive
of the United States, in regard to them, have
been already disclosed to France, by you, on the
occasion Of inviting its cooperation 10 bring "a
bout peace between Spain and her former colo
mics, in spirit of great frankness. 1t was
stated 10 the French Government that the u
nited States could not see, with Indifference
those Islands passing from Spain TO any other
European Power; and that, Tor ourselves, no
change was desired in their present political
and commercial condition, nor in the possession
which Spain has of them. In the same spirit,
and with the hope Of guarding, beforehand, a
gains, any possible difficulties on that subject,
that may arise, you will now add, that we could
not consent TO the occupation OF those islands
by any other European Power than Spain, un-
der any contingency whatever. Cherlshlng no
designs on them ourselves, we have fair claim
to an unreserved knowledge OF the views OF
other great maratime Powers, In respect to
them If any sensibility should be manifested
to what the French Minister may choose to re-
gard as suspicious entertained here, OF a dis
position on the part of France to indulge pas
sion of aggrand isement, you may 1isavow any
such suspicious, and say that the President can
Phenix gazette. [volume] (Alexandria [D.C.]) 1825-1833, 1826-04-04

not suppose state Of things, in which either OF
the great maratime Powers Of Europe, with or
without the consent Of Spain, would feel ltseli
justified to occupy, or attempt the occupation,
Of Cuba or Porto Rico, without the concurrence,
or, at least, the knowledge of the United States.
You may add, if the tenor ofyour communlca-
tons with the French Minister should seem to
make it necessary, that, in the course OF the
past summer, rumours reached this country, not
merely of its being the design OF the French
feet 10 take possession of the Island OF Cuba,
but that it had, in fact, taken possession OF that
island. Ifthe confidence in the Government OF
France, entertained by that of the United States,
could not allow it to credit these rumors, it
must be admitted, that they derived some coun-
tenance from the weakness OF SPAN, the init
mate connection between that monarchy and
France, and the general ignorance that pre-
vailed, as to the ultimate destination and object
of feet greatly disproportionate,l the extent
of its armament, to any of the ordinary purpos-
es of peaceful commerce.
You are at liberty to communicate the SUBJ
iect of this note to the French Government, in
conference or in writing, as you may think most
proper; but, in either case, 1t is the Presidents
wish that il should be done in the most concili-
atory and friendly manner.
am, with great respect, sir,
Your obedient servant,
H. CLAY.

and Minister Plenipotentiary y. ,. to France.

other lortresses, and from 10 to II 900 at his
disposal. But calculating the losses he has
met with at Tripoiitza, at Acrata, and in other
engagements in the Morea and upon the CONT.

eminent, to receive the command of the 500
