The Secretary of State, In reply to memorials
asking the attention of Cove rnment to what thew
call reasonable matter In Russell's letter of Aug
10th to the London Times, says it has been the
habit Of this Government to take no notice of
representations, however obnoxious, by the
press OF foreign nations. This Government has
only recognized as worthy of observation the
language and actions of Executive organs of
foreign States, and says the publication COM
planned of had not arrested the attention of
himself or any member of the Administration,
that these representations stand upon individual
authority of persons making them TIE Gov

upon the good will or favor of foreign nations.
but upon the just support Of American people:
that it seems to him that censure ought to fall
on those papers which re produce those articles
in this country, rather than on foreigners who
write articles for private publication. Finally,
interference with the press, even in case of ex.
istins insurrection, can only be justified on
grounds of public danger.
The Secretary of State has issued Circular
