Mr. Champion had perseyeringy and systematically mis-
represented in the grosses the American Secretary
of State and several American senator's He had done
that most ungentlemanly of all ungenemany things

Nay he had deliberately suppressed the two most inn
porant dispatches which Lord Clarendon had written to
him during the whole period Of his official career
upon the enlistment question and one upon the Central
American questionable punctua communication Of either
of which might have settled at the international
troversy to which it appertained
On the ED of June, 1885, Lord Clarendon ordered Mr.
Champion to desist from all enstments in the United
States Mr. Champion disobeyed this order and went on
the 5th of August month after the receipt Of the order to

ceaed the contents of that order from Sir Gaspard lie
Merchant and Sir Edmund Head to whom Lord Caren-
don intended they should be communicated Those
ceaments had fatal effect upon the progress of the

aaid or done at Washington.
Out of decacy to the British government, the American
speaks of this conduct rendering Mr. Cramp

Mr. Dallas has suppressed important letters from Mr. Marcy
which ought have been communicated to Lord Caren

negotiation where Mr. Marcy happens to have the ttss OF
Lord Clarendon In argument Pshawi We sbouti have
