The Secretary Of State Of The United Sthtes 10 the
Minister If Foreign Affairs Of France.

DEPARTMENT OF STATS,
WAsHIsGToH, Sept 5, ls49.
NJ. ALEXIS DE TocoUEvILLE,
Minister Of Foreign Affairs
OF the French Republic.
SIR; have received a despatch from Mr.. Rush, the
American minister in Paris, Of the 18th of August,
covering note from you TO him, dated the 9th Of
that month. Both have been submitted TO the Pre-
sdcnt, with the correspondence to which they re-
late. As Mr.. Rush is returning home, and Mr. Rivcs,
who has been appointed TO succeed him as Minister
TO France, has probably not yet arrived in Paris,
hasten to avail myself Of the only means Of commu
nication between the governments we represent,
by addressing you directly on the subject Of your
note.
You acknowledge the receipt of the correspond
ence (which took place between the Secretary of
State for Foreign Affairs of the United States and
the Minister of France at Washington" from which
il must have been obvious TO your mind that the
latter had repeatedly and gratuitously addressed
communications 10 this Government, highly often
sve and discourtcous, both in manner and in sub
stance.
That correspondence submitted simply to
enable your Government 70 decide upon the proper
course TO be taken IN regard 10 its own Minister.
You appear 10 have considered the occasion as one
which called upon you 10 construct an apology for
that Minister, by indisc Intimately ccnsuring both
parties to the correspondence. You were not in
vited to decide srbiter upon the mode in which
the American Government conducted that corre-
spondcncc, which was not only courteous and re-
spectful in terms, but entirely unexceptonable in
spirit and you could not have failed 10 observe that
this Department had not, in any instance descended
10 recrimnatIon, whether useless OF otherwise with
Mr.. Poussin.
Should the correspondence Of any Minister Of this
Republic prove insulting 10 the friendly Govern
ment Of France. that Government is too confident

Of desire 10 maintain kind relations with il to
doubt that the President fthe United States would
feel 1t To be high duty to examine the complaint,
and TO render prompt and proper atonement for
the injury. But the issue presented in the CORE
spondence Of Mr. Poussin cannot be evaded by any
charge OF recriminatons If that charge can be
made with any shadow Of truth, let it be separately
presented, and il will be promptly and most
speetfully considered.
The President instructs me to say to your excel
lency that, as from the whole tone Of your commu
nication to Mr.. Rush, which has struck him with
much surprise, it would seem that the disrespect-
tul language of the French Minister at Washington
has been received with indulgence, and held
worthy OF Palation by the disting uished Minister
OF Foreign Affairs Of France, who has manifested
no disposition to redress the wrong, he the Chief
Magistrate OF the United States feels himself now
at perfect liberty, and in fact constrained with a
view to preclude opportunities which might be
again abused, TO perform, without any further de-
lay, unpleasant duty, from which he had hoped
his friendly appeal to the French Government
would have relieved him.
This Government is the guardian of its own hon
or, and all occasions it seeks to avoid giving
cause of offence so will it submit to inten.
tonal dsrespect By the time this letter reaches
your excellency, Mr.. Poussin will have been in
formed that no further correspondence will be held
with him by the Executive of the United States
and that every proper facility will be offered him
should he desire to return to France
The President further instructs to express to
your Excellency the friendly sentiments of him.
self and OF this Government for the President, the
Government, and the People of France. He does
not doubt that these kind sentiments reciprocal
ted by them, and he anticipates, with lively salts
faction the arrival of Mr.. Poussin's successor with
whom it will be the study of this Government to
cultivate agreeable and friendly intercourse in the
terms and the spirit of mutual courtesy, which will
be equally honorable to both the sister Republics
In the mean time prompt and respectful attention
will be given to any communications touching the
interests of our respective countries which may be
made through any other diplomatic agent whom
the French Government may see fit to select
avail myself of this opportunity to offer to your
excellency the assurance of my most distinguished
consideration. JOHN M. CLAYTON

}
Sin The President has devolved upon me the
duty of announcing to you that the Government of
the United States will hold no further correspond
ence with you as the Minister Of France; and that
the necessity which has impelled him to take this
step at the present moment has been made known
to your Government. In communicating the Pres
idents determination in regard to yourself person
attention will be cheerfully given to any commu-
nicatons from the Government of France, affecting
the interests Of our respective Republics which
may reach this Department through any other
channel. Your own Government will be able to
explain to you the reasons which have influenced
the American Executive in delaying the present
communication until this period.
The President has instructed me further to say,
that every proper facility for quitting the United
States will be promptly given, at any moment
when you may be pleased to signify that it is your
desire to return to France.

servant, JOHN M. CLAYTON

sive portions of which he was afterwards indul-
gently suffered TO withdraw In resolving to over
look this mark Of disrespect, the Department was
guided by sincere desire to omit nothing which
would tend TO promote the friendly and harmonious
relations Of the two governments. But, at the same
time, not feeling disposed to countenance commu-
nications from any quarter which question or inn
pugn the honor and dignity of the American Gov
eminent, the President has deemed it proper TO
direct me to transmit TO you the accompanying
correspondence, which he wishes you to transmit
10 the French Government. You will readily per-
ceve that the language objected to, and the temper
which M. Poussn has not been able to conceal,
must necessarily tend obstruct diplomatic inter
course, and essentially calculated to enbarrass
rather than to promote friendly discussion of
questions that concern the honor and interests of
the two republics.
