DEPARTMENT OF FoRErGN AFFAIRS,
Paris, January 18Th, 1885.
SIR: You have we'll comprehedded
the nature of the impressions, produced
upon the Kings Government, by the
message which his excellency Presi-
dent Jackson addressed, on the Is, Of
December, to the Congress of the u
uited States. Nothing certainly could
have prepared US for it. Even though
the complaints expressed in it had been
as just, as they are in reality UNJUST
we should still have had right to be
astonishsd, on receiving the first com.
munication Of them in such form.
In the explanations which am now
about to make, cannot enter upon the
consideration of any facts, other thaa
those occurring subsequently to the
vote, by which the last Chamber Of
Deputies refused the appropriation,
necessary for the payment stipulated
in the Treaty Of July 4th. Howeveet
this vote may have been regarded by
the Government OF the United States,
it is evident, that by accepting ac-
cueillant) the promise Of the Kings
Government, to bring on second de-
liberation, before the new Legislature
it had in fact postponed all discussions
and all recfiminalion on the subject oil
this first refusal, until another decision
should have either repealed or con-
hrmed it. This postponemeut there
fore sets aside, for the time, all dfh-|
culties, arising either justly or unjust
| ly, from the rejection of the treaty, or|
from the delay by which i. had been
preceded; and although the message
begins by enumera.ing them, l think
proper, 10 order 10 confne myself III
the matter in question, only to reply ii
the imputa.ions made on account 81
subsequent occurrences.
/ The reproacIies which Presidenl
Jackson considers himself authorized
to address to France, may be summed
up in few words. The Kings Gov1|
ernmeut promised to present the Trea
y ~ Of July 4th again to the Chambefs|

on the morning Of the 9th, TO avoid a
ny mistake as TO the mode of making
the communication, carried the paper
to him myself, telling him that had
received gazette containing paper,
said TO be the Message of the Presi
dent, which delivered to him in com.
pliance with my promise, but ! request.
! ed him 10 observe, that it was not an
authentic paper, nor was it delivered in
pursuance Of instructions, nor in my
official character. | thought it, for ob.
vlous reasons, necessary TO be very ex.
plicIt on this point, and he probably
understood me, as he had not yet read
the message. Little more passed at the
interview, and | thought of it, but not
Immediately, TO seek another shall
probably, however, see him to>night,
and shall then appoint some time for q
further conference, OF which, will by
this same packet, give you the result.
Mr.. Middleton had just arrived from
Madrid, with the inscriptions for the
Spanish indemnity, and draft for the
first payment of interest. His instruc.
tons are, he says, to leave them with
me, but, as l have heard nothing from
the Department, shall advise the de.
posting them with Rothschld, to wait |
the directions of the President.
The importance of obtaining the
earliest intelligence at this crisis Of our
affairs with France, has induced me
to direct that my letters should be sent
by the Estafette from Havre, and that,
II any important advices should be re.
ceIved, at such an hour in the day ss
would give courier an advance of some
hours over the Estafe!te, that special
messenger should be despatched with it.
l have the honor to be, very respect.
