Report OF Capt. wilkes I'm Regard TO
the Arrest OF Slidell and Mason.
New YoRK, Dec. 10.-The following Is an
abridged copy of the report Of Capt. Wilkes,
assigning his reason for the arrest Of Mason
and Slldell: =
80 w U. s. STEAMER SAN JAcINTo, AT SEA,l
4ags November 16, 1861.
The governments Of Great Britain, France
and Spain, having issued procl&mations that the
Confederate States were viewed, considered and
treated as belligerents,I felt no hesitation In
boarding and searching all vessels of whatever
nation fell In with, and have done 80. The
question arose In my mind whether had the
right to capture tho persons OF the commission
ers; whether they were amenable to capture.
There was no doubt that / had the right 10 cap.
ture vessels with written dispatches. They are
expressly referred to In all authorities as sub.
jecting the vessel to seizure and condemnation
If the captain Of the vessel had the knowledge
OF their being on board. But these gentlemen
were not dispatches In the literal sense, and no
where could find case In point They had
been presented to the Captain General Of Cuba
by II. B. M. Consul General, but the Captain.
General told me he had not received them In
that capacity, but as distinguished gentlemen
and strangers.
then considered them as the embodiment of
dispatches, and it therefore became my duty to
arrest their progress and capture them If they
had no passports or papers from the Federal
Government as provided for under the law Of
nations, namely: that foreign ministers from q
belligerent on board Of neutral ships, are re-
quired to possess papers from the other bellig
erent to permit them to pass free.
IAs respects the'steamer In which they en-
barked, the agent Of the vessel, the son of the
British Consul at Havana, was we'll aware Of
the character of these persons. They went on
the steamer with the knowledge and consent Of
the Captain, who endeavored afterward to con-
ceal them by refusing to exhibit the passenger
list and the papers of the vessel.
There can be no doubt he knew they were
carrying highly important dispatches, and were
endowed with instructions inimical to the
United States. This rendered his vessel, though
q neutral, good prize, and determined to take
possession OF the vessel, and, as mentioned in |
my report, send her to Key West for adjudica- |
tion. Iforbore to seize her, however, in conse- |
quence of my being so reduced in officers and
crew, and the arrangement it would cause in.
nocent persons, there being large number of
passengers who would have been put TO great
loss and Inconvenience as well as the disap-
pointment from the interruption il would have
caused them in not being able to join the hesteamer
from st. Thomas for Europe. therefore con-
cluded to sacrifice the interests Of my officers
and crew in the prize, and suffered the steamer
TO proceed, after the necessary detention, to
effect the transfer of the Commissioners, con.
'idering had attained the important end had
10 view.

was attended by about forty members. All
