ecuted by His Imperial Majesty, with the

most perfect good faith-and as we hav
no diplomatic agent at his court, he per
sonally inquired into and corrected
proceeding of some of his subaltern of
ficers, to the injury Of our consul in on
Of his ports.
Our treaty with the Sublime Porte j
producing its expected effects on ou
commerce. New markets are onenin!
for our commodities, and more eAten
svo range for the employment Of ou
SHIPS. a slight augmentation Of the du
ties on our commerce, Inconsistent will
the spirit of the treaty, had been impos-
I! cd; but on the representation OF ON
! Chaigo d'Atlaircs, it has been promptly
Withdrawn, and We now enjoy the trade
and navigation Of the Black Sea, and oi
all the ports belonging to the Turk ish
empire and Asia, on the most perfect C.
quality with all foreign nations
| wish earnestly, that in announcing
to you the continuance offriendshIp, and
the increase Of a profitable commercial
intercourse with Mexico, with Central
America, and the States of the South,
could accompany it with the assurance e
that they are all blessed with that inter-
nal tranquility and foreign peace which
their heroic devotion to the cause Of their
independence merits. In Mexico, a SAN
culinary struggle is now carried on,which
has caused some embarrassment to our
commerce; but both parties profess the
most friendly disposition towards U.s.
TO the termination of this contest, we
look for the establishment of that secure
intercourse, SO necessary to nations
whose territories are contiguous. How
important it will be to us, we may calcu-
late from the fact, that even in this unfa :
vorable state of things, our maritime
commerce has increased, and an inter-
nal trade by caravans, from ST. Louis to
Santa Fe, under tie protection oi escorts
furnished by the Government, is carried
on to great advantage, and is daily in
crcasing. The agents provided for by
the treaty with this Power, to designate
the boundaries which it established ,have
been named OH our pait; but one Of the
evils OF the civil war now raging there
has been, that the appointment Of those
with whom they were to cooperate has
not yet been announced to us.
The Gov ernment Of Central America
has expelled from its territory the party
which some time since disturbed its
peace. DESTROYS of fostering favora-
bic disposition towards us, which has on
moro than one occasion been evinced by
this interesting country, / made Sec
ond attempt, in this year, to Establish a
diplomatic intercourse with them-bui
the death OF the distinguished citizen
whom | had appointed for that purpose,
has retarded the execution of measures
from which hoped much advantage TO
our commerce. The union of the three
states which formed the Republic Of
Colombia has been dissolved; but they
all, it is believed, consider themselves as
bound by the Treaty which
was made in their federal capacity
The Minister accredited to the Fedora
lion, continues in that character near the
Of New Grenada; and hopes
were entertained, that new Union
would be formed between the separate
States, at least, for the purposes of TO
reign intercourse. Our Minister has
been instructed to use his good Offices,
whenever they shall be desired, to pro-
luce the reunion so much to be wished,
or the domestic tranquility of the par
les, and the security and facility Of TO
cign commerce.
Scme agitations naturally attendant on
III infant reign have prevailed in the
empire Of Brazil, which have had the
Usual effect upon commercial opcrations;
md while they suspended the considera-
ion of claims created on similar occa-
ions, they have given rise to now COM
laints on the part of our citizens. "A
roper consideration for calamitics and
iilicultes of this nature has made us
ess urgent and percmptory in our de-
1ands for justice than duty to our fellow :
itizcns would, under other circumstan- '
es, have required. But their claims /
re not neglected, and will on oil proper (
