Uliied States sstent with all We have hitherto
done ana stated but ss consistent as We can make 1t
with Amei Ill ipt.r,sts. To Dc clear, we should pr
pore tIst TO make the town nov called Grey town,

Of territory the Mosquito Indians, and place them
equally UNDER our protection aid that oi the oaited

p.nnt in viewing Indians is not Compatible With our
own let the Unit. s. point out any other mode of
GUY prot, ctrg these Indians winch does not grant aay
exclusive rights privileges to Greaj brtan Thirdly
let lie leave The real coDoton aud position OF the ~
Islands to arbitrators. FoaIthly let US declare tha
we DO lot extend our possessions 10 British Honduras
be, oud their limits i'll 1885, and claim hom the United
States recognition Of those Possessions as they exist
&c IN 1880 proposal OF this kind woul1 probably
terminate The neg oations II it did not, TIE United
Stai.s must deriIe quarrel with us; and re mast
brave that QUAR- l. for it would be equally ignnn4ous
