Sin 1t is with real satisfaction perceive from your
excelencys favor OF the 9th of January that the Pres-
dent OF the United States led by the wish TO strengthen
and extend the friendly relation subsstng between the
two countries, has charged Mr. A. Dudley Manu. special
agent OF the United States with mission to the govern
ment of the Grand Duke of Meckenburg Schwerin and
this gentleman has laid before the propositions your
excellency thought most proper to adopt.
Ii will scarcely need the assurance that the kind in
tentions of your government gratefully ackno edged
here. and that his royal hghness, the Grand Duke my
gracious master fully comedies in the above opinion
AS however, the intended treaty of commerce and
navigation is to be analogous to the treaty lately entered
into between the United States and the kingdom OF Han
over regret to say, obliged to call the attention
of your excellencys agent to the circumstances which
prevent government, for the present. to adopt ha
treaty in all it propositions
believe, however, have convinced Mr.: A. Dudley
Manu. that the obstacle is by tendency OF the
government of his royal hghnes. but solely results from
the mode of levyng duties, which, however varying
from the Hanoveran system, does not at present
the less favor free trade with all foreign states and
trusting that the discussions already entered into with
our States (det respecting customlaws in render
ing them similar the Hanoverian, viii aside
ali obstacles, take this opportunity of assuring your
excelIency of my highest esteem, -
