LEGATION oP HER BRITANNIA MAJESTY, !
GUATEMALA, Aug q, 1880
Sir-Oa my return tn this city. received de-
patches from Rear Admiral Horribly, Commander
Inc hItf OF the naval forces Of her Britannia Majesty
IN the Paciflc, communicating 10 me the disagreed
bic result of his visit the coast of Salvador and
bis intention of sending to me in Septic nber, or
before If deem il necessary, several vessels of war
to operate under my authority, and at my discre-
ton. with the expectation of obtaining satisfaction
for The many insults protiered by the government
OF Salvador to the government of her Britannia
MsJesty, her officers and the British public.
Itis useless 10 particularise the deliberate insults
and injuries which the authorities of Sav have
in their Official acts DEGREES, correspondence, and
pagers, aimed at Great Britain for series of years.
These insults and injuries are notorious and
public so much so, that in many parts of the coun-
Try, they are universally admired. Ii is well known
that The government of Salvador and its pariisans,
Britain, and that that system Of offending her has
been adopted by your smart politicians. For a
long time revolutionary party has existed in Cen
ual America, which uses all the means in its pow
er 10 direct public opinion in its favor; creating in
fact the most false and absurd impressions aQainst
Great Britain, as being great monarchial despo-
tic power With this incessant clamorng, they hope

patriotism, and a readiness to resist the pretended

world, but reason and common sense tell us quite
the contrary, and demonstrate to us that her inte-
ests are In complete harmony with those of the
whole bumen race. Greater lenty on the
part Of England would be injustice towards
those who look TO her for protection, and
moreover would be inconsistent with the dignity
and power OF great nation. Therefore, con-
slder The moment as having arrived tor taking final
stsp', IN order 10 induce the government of Saliva
dor TO adopt course Of conduct more decorous in
her relations with England, and TO adopt the ne
cessary measures, at least, to prevent the rene
ttion of the false and calumnous assertions
relating TO the proceedings of the British govern
ment and its agents, which the government of Sal
vndor has permitted to be inserted in the public
papers, recognized by all its official organs Tho
official gazette Of Salvador imputes to the British
guvtfBnent the most atrocious acts, branding il
as yrant, usurper, pirate, and thief, OPP
pressor, and unjust. Upon the British agents have
been poured all kinds of insults and ldignities;
and they are refused recognition in manner most
insulting 10 the official character which their sove-
reign bse conferred upon them Anticipating the |
arrival OF The British ships, and hoping that by |
evihe timely notice 10 the government Of your |
honor II VIII not be necessary to take active mea-
cures against the State Of Salvador, in order to |
