United States; and her malestys government canno
deny to the government Of the United States rgh
similar to that which in a parallel case, they would
claim for them selves-the right, namely Of forming
their own Judgment rs TO the bearing of the laws oil
the Union upon transactions which have taken place
within the Union.
Il have therefore, the honor to inform you that,
however deeply her majesty's government regret a
proceeding on the part of the President Of the Uni
ted States which cannot but be considered rs Of an
unffiendly character they have not deemed IL their
dat, ON that account 70 Hivise her majesty to COM

YOU and have 10 assure YOU that the hlRh personal
esteem which is felt for you by all the members of
her majestys government will render IL most agree

communication with you upon all matters connected
with the mutual relations of our two countries
You will be certain of meeting, the part OF her

He says: E
~ reneoiedlv Informed Mr. Buchanan that il was
the wish Of her maiesty's government TO withdraw
from the protectorate of Mosquito, provided they
could do so with honor securing adequate provision
for the King and the Indians of that country that
Rnaten was a possession of her maiestys crown; and
that az her maiestys government could not consent
Ia abandon the protectorate of Mosauto or to give
nm the islands of Ruatan merely in pursuance of AN
Interpretation given by the government ofthe United
States To treaty which Interpretation her majestys
government did moi admit the most usual as well Ms
the most friendly course to pursue was to refer the
meaning of the treaty to the decision ola third pow
or
This offer was made by me TO Mr. buchanan by
the direction of her majestys Governments it was sew
eral times renewed and discussed between us. Mr.
Crampton ought undoubtedly according to his in
strnctions TO have communicated TO Mr. Marcy at
the time when he received IL my espatrh of the 10Th
of November, giving an account of my conversations
with Mr. Buchanan but his not having done so was
of little consequences AS Mr. buchanan had often as
sured me that every thing which had passed between
us had been duly reported to his government | am
therefore at a loss to understand how il happened
that the President should as stated by Mr. Marcy
have been induced only by certain collateral incidents
to infer that arbitration by third power of the diff
ference between the two governments in relation to
Central America had been proposed by her maiesty's
Government
- "a instrumentation has however taken place which
ia to he regretted on nccount of the DELAY which It
has accustomed. hut This has been rendered coupara-
tvcly unimporf,nt by the dispatch of Mr. Marcy and
the course of proceeding which he now proposes for
the adoption of the two Governments Her maiesty's
Government beinp as solcitous os the President 10
Two countries arc nrenorrd 10 enter into negotiations
an tbese matters with sincere desire To bring them
ia n snoedv and satisfactory conclusion
MIR Marcy is correct when he states that Great
