Gated any satisfaction with it they would

what had said to him, he did not think
they had received much encouragement.
told him that, whenever ! had spoken to
him upon the subject, l had always been
careful to assure him that / was expressing
my own individual sentiments, without any
instructions or information from my govern
ment, and that these remained unchanged.
also observed that his last letter to me, e.
nally denying our construction Of the treaty,
and forming an issue between the two gov.
ernments, might appropriately have contain
ed proposition for arbitration, and in this
manner the question might have been
brought in regular order before our govern
ment He then, for the first time, informed
me that he had addressed despatch to Mr..
Crampton on the subject, with instructions
to him to read it to you. He then sent for
it, and read it to me. ] believe it is dated
in November, but copy being doubtless in
your possession, it will speak for ITSELF.
And he informed Inc that all you had said
to Mr.. Champion was, that the matter was
in Mr.. Buchanan's hands. He proceeded
to express decided opinion in favor Of ar
btration, and said that when two friendly
governments disagreed upon the construc-
ton of treaty, the natural and appropri-
ate course was to refer the question to a
third friendly power. He had ever firmly
believed their construction Of the treaty to
be correct. He then requested me to com
municate to you their proposals for arbitra-
ton, and how anxious they were that the
question might be settled in this manner.
told him should cheerfully comply with
his request, but repeated that my own indi-
vidual opinions remained unchanged. con-
sidered the language Of the treaty too clear
for serious doubt, and such | believed was
the opinion Of public men Of all particsin the
United States. This had been evinced by
the recent debate in the senate on tie presi-
dents message. Besides, the difficulty Of
of selecting snitable sovereign as an nrbi-
traitor seemed insurmountable. But, ! said,
this was a question for my government and
not for myself. .....-..

there was nothing to arbitrate. He said
the true construction Of the treaty was o

l did not consider it a question for con.

SIN - Ere this car
reach Washington, you will have read the
speeches Of Lord Derby and Lord Claren-
don, in the house Of lords on Thursday
evening last, which will speak for them

Lord Clarendon said, in relation to the
central American question: In such q
case correspondence is useless, and lost
no time in offering to refer the whole ques
tion to the arbitration Of any third power
both sides agreeing to bo bound by the de
cision. That oiTer has not yet been accept

upon further consideration the government
OF the United States will agree to it.", II
is therefore, proper for me to state, as q
matter Of fact, that have reported to you
in the most faithful manner, every conver
sation which has passed between Lord
Clarendon and myself ou the reference o.
these questions to a friendly power. As
have never learned that the British gov

In the course of-ths conversation, l OBJ
served to him that the most serions diiicul-
ty between the governments might arise
out of the Central American question. He
said that when two governments disagteed
about the construction Of treaty, the best
and most natural mode was to refer the
question to third Power. At an early
period Of The negotiation be had made this
