Circular, addressed by the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs at WarSaU to the Agents Of the Polish
| Government in Foreign Countries
Recent military events having freed the capitol and
tho whole of the right bank of the Vistula from the
tacks of the enemy deem it duty request you
use every possible effort to convey to the Government
to which you accredited the wishes of the Polish
nation. 1t is received principle in Europe, that tho
independent existence of every country is founded
those rights which have been recognised we'll
as IN the formation of domestic force capable of pro-
tecting and maintaining it. When the question of right
coexstent with that of fact both yield to each other
reciprocal support. The former existence of Poland
her relation with other States sufficiently known
nor the three parttionng powers question their
historical accuracy, for they must retain recollection
OF the intimate relations which Poland formerly main
tanned with them, of the services that she rendered
them, of the which she forced them

If then, consult the history of country, o.
of that part of Europe, it will be that the RICH
of the Poles national and independent existence
is ncontesble 1t true that the close of the las
century the three parttoning Powers, after having
contederated for ruin destroyed that independence
