At another interview held at the same Department on
the 9th Of October, Mr. Crttenden replied verbally to
Mr.. Champion as follows
am instructed by the President to express his regret
that such orders those mentioned in the despatch from
Lord Pamerson should have been deemed necessary and
proper by the British Government
50 lar as they have reference awless and unautho-
rzed expeditions against theisand of Cuba appreheded
from citizens Of the United States il is only
to say that such expeditions forbidden by the laws
this Republic, and that its Government is able and de-
ternined to execute those laws EMISSIONS of them may
occur in spite of the utmost vigilance and energy such
instances to the laws of all countries 1t
only by stealth and by favor of and accidental cir
cumances that any such expeditions escape from
our shores; none of sufficient force or magnitude to
create serious apprehension for the safety of Cuba
and certainly none against which Spain herself is not
abundanty able to protect that island.
The Government Of the United States, always deter
mined IN perfect good faith TO maintain its neutral re
tons, and perform all its national obligations condemns
strongly the British Government the lawess enter
prses against which the orders in question appear
directed and the Government of the United States equally
with tie British Government desires their prevention
Suppression.
But just and desirable that end may be- the Presi-
dent could not witness without concern any attempt to
accomplish such object by means which might even
tuay cad to encroachments the rights of the people
of the United States
The President is of opinion that SO far as relates to
this republic and its citizens such interference
would result from the execution of those orders If ad
mtteto be rghtfu in themselves would nevertheless be
practically injurious in its consequences, and do
harm than good Their execution would be the exercise
OF sort OF police the in immediate vicinity
covered as they are with ships and citizens, and
1t would involve moreover to extent the exercise
of Jurisdiction to determine what expeditions were
the character and who the guilty adven
turers engaged in them.
The President cannot but apprehend that such orders
could not be carried into effect without leading proba
bly, to abuses and collisions that would constantly leo
part and might seriously disturb that peace and good
will which he sincerely and maa~
perpetual hatween the United States and Great Britain
TIE President deems 1T unnecessary to say more at
present the subject of these ORDERS than to add the
expression of his hope that there may arise any
occasion for carrying them into execution.
