sTR Win nv dispatch No. 27e Of 18th Msrch, !
,rnsuitted the note of Lord Aberdeen OF the lJtn OF
March communicating the important ibform soal
his Government hsd to the determination 10 con
eede 70 American hsherm en- the right OF pursuing tno
occupation within the Bay of Fundy was le'
somewhat uncertain By Lord Aberdeen ho1,
whether this concession was intended 10 be con
fined TO the Bay Of Fundy, or 20 extend &c otnef
portions of the cosso Of the Anglo-AmeIi:an pos
sessions, 10 which the principles contendeu Ioi
by the Government Of the United States equay appy
and particularly 10 the waters on the hortn-eA'.eIu
shores OF Cape Breton where the Argus was cap
tured In my of the 18th ulumo and % instant
on the subject of the Washington" aud the Argus,
was careful point out to Lord Aberdeen that All tne
re asons for admitting the right OF Americans n 'n IN
the Bay of Fundy apply to hlse waters and Ttn suDe
rior rce inasmuch they are less lsndiOcked IMAM
the Bay of Fundy and 10 express the hope that the
concession meant to extend 10 them, which there
WAS some reason to think, from the mode In which
Lord Aberdeen expressed himself, was the case. .
Ireceiyed last evening the answer OF his Lor sGip.
informing me that my two notes had been refer "a 70
the Colonial Office and that haal reply could not %
suit Of that reference and that In the meantime the
concession must be understood to be limited " the bay
Of Fundy.
The merits Of the question are clear that cannot
but anticipate that decision Of the Colonial once
will be in favor Of the literal construction Of the COnven
tion In the meantime, beg leave to suggest tnat IN
any public notice which may be given that the Bay Oh
Fupdy s hencefo1h open 10 American fishermen,
should be carefully stated that the extension OF the same
pryete the other great bays the coast OF the An
alo.American dependencies is a matter of negotiation
between the two Governments My notes OF the 2ofo OF
March, and I'd instant, will suggest the reason tor pre-
senng the actual of the controversy In this form
