To the Consul General Of H. B. N =, sdriok ChaJfeid
This is not the fret Tins that he Supreme Hovern-
msnt Of the sovereign State Of Nicaragua and also the
rest OF Central America, received rem you communl-
cations wanting in that moderation which should al
ways be the invsrisb'e s,andrd OF the conduct OF
every public tunctiOnary, and particularly OF those
charged with maintaining harmonious relations BE-
tween Governments but that which you directed TO
me-, dated the lsh inst is witbut dispute, most ex
tfsVsshut 10 its ideas and expressions
In II you suppose that this Government eusies Il
self vita attacking the British government In It's mani
fetoes and public papers and excites hatred against
the subjects of Great Britain, who peacefully prose
their business in this couury. At the same time
that IL charges this Government with evinciug nosue
feelings for Great Britain in the Guoernatona decree
OF the 10Th June last whose OBJECT is the ree,tso'h
men, OF public order aud the license Of The terrific
nal integrity Of the state.
Nicaragua has never undertaken sggre,sions OF any
kind az sinst the English GOyernent, because u req
poets the rights which, sgreeany TO nature and inter
national principles belong 70 sll nations under the
sway Of civilization II as done other than de
icnd it Independence from the advances oil ihose VINO
under the preteXt ct q savage monarchy, mol recos
nized by the enlightened void, attempt to sustcn
from ii its most important property and possessions
on the Atlantic sca5Osrd with he well known lhlen'
ton Of establishing an enormous prePondersnce over
tae American continent
Ia the midst Of THE and when these attempts have
become most hagrsni disturbing the peace Of me
state, proisnng its territory, and causing the ooOu
shed Of its children without even declaration oil war
on tDt part OF tot blllsu hyFtfAAl'A~ -
snimAdversi0ns against British subjects having been
excited by Nicaragua, they have been treated ~ as
though the country lad not received any noiy ION
Englsnd, and the persons and property OF - sno
have been pected shs those OF the
OF Nicaragua. And II this has been the conoutt OF sn'
state al the moment when lts territorial nsns ns'e
