Cas-, reporting the substance Of cOnversaonhe had
with the Earl Of Malmesbury--hs lordshp inviting
the interview. He was aware that Nj Dallas letters
for Washington would 50 forward on the 27Jh Nog-
emoer, and he wished Mr.. Dallas to convey in them
some few remarks from him ......
Fjrst-LoTd Napier bad communicated to the Pres
ldent the treaty negotiated by Sir VIM. Gore Uuyeey
With the Minister from Nicaragua, II was believed
that objection was expressed to its provisions
one of its objects was To terminate the Mosquito pro-
teGtorate Second, Sir Gore Oaseey was by this
time Al Nicaragua and would exert himself to obtain
ratification Of the treaty, 10 doing which it was in
dispensabie that he should be protected by the pre-
by the fiIibusters.
He had, however, been much surprised at the CON
tents Of recent letter from LORD Napier which sta
ted that Cen Cass considers that the orders issued
for the protection 81 sir Gore Ouseey to be inc0mpati
HE with the Clayton BuIweF treaty These orders
we're to the effect that if the Government of NCara-
qua required for their defense from fbasters the
active intervention Of military power, suitable
armed force was land seize the offenders and hand
them OYER, if American, to the nearest authority Of
the United tates and having done this 70 retire i'm
medi4teIy. He could not understand Why such pro
ceedinrs should be regarded a violation of that
article Of the treaty which interdcted Occupation
and domnion,8 especially az clause in the Cass-lr
sarr treaty, with which this Government foand no
fau but the contrary desired to see effected pro
vded tor exactly the same sort OF temporary assist
ance.
II was impossible to allow their diplomatic repre-
sentative TO nave MS 0tJtCL cut SOfL Uy lnhTauutE7
When the treaty disposed Of there would be an
end OF their interference. Thus far as to Central
America.
Thrd-In regard to Mexico, be described Spain as
extremely irrtated by the cruetes inflicted upon
SpanardS, and az threatening to send feet To pun
/ -h and exact redress. England however, had snc-
4 cessiuliy persuaded delay. Mexico was il so dis
tracted condition that it could scarcely be said to
/ have responsible Government England had her
self been grossly outraged in the person Of Mr. Han
son, whose treatment could best be resented, in the
opinion Of the Law officers OF the crown BY British
1 fleet being sent to lampico. Her Majesty Govern
ment however, were adverse to any strong measures
/ which might make things worse than they already
are and severity would probably fall upon the limo
cent.
1t was difficult to say what result the disordered
state Ut Mexico must lead to il the nations interested
in her weil-Oeing tOrehnre to intervene.
Mr. Dallas says My solicitnde in this narrative
has been to give the leading IDEAS OF Lord Maine
bury. OF course he was not uutrequentIy interrupted
by comments from myself which led to collateral ex-
plantations Among otheF tmngs' remarked That
the provision IN the CasSlFlsaru treaty winch seem
ed to rather to carry out than to violate the Clay
tonBnlwer treaty, by securing Tor all equally safe
aud uninterrupted transit IL was essentially dller-
ent in its character from the admiralty orders which,
amid the struggles OF parties left 10 the discretion Of
naval officers whom to recognize as the de tucto
! Government OF Nicaragua, and whom 70 denounce
for British pursuit aud dispersion as hfbusters, It
the popular party, now IN notion acquired strength
their adversar.es would as matter OF course brand
them with that odious name and call for British sue

states could not pc supposed TO be lnsensible-which
~ OF all things was most repuRhant 10 the spirit and
