Tent affair. 20 be asked for would be sufficient.
Sir G. Lewis said it would be impossible, at the
present moment, TO state what would De the exact
expenditure, bnt they considered that the amount
would be sufficient.
MONEY which bad been expended Ia recent
circumstances connected with America had

nearly possible confined 10 himself. The honos-
BILE gentleman said that the Govern Isnr OF Was1'

the persons who We're taken on board The rrent. IL
the honorable member contetded that the United
States Government were bound by their OWL princi.

we're quits free from any control exercised on toen
By any other class Of the community; If The listed
States Government felt ali along that the, were

Capt. Wilkes, and therefore 10 afford redress, why
did they wait for any demand upon them y Az
Why did they keep these tou- gentlemen IN piison
Tho cours. they had taken afforded ample PROOF 'hsI
~ the earlier stages they did not rive al tbe eon-

10 insult the British flag. They gave him regular

Nor were the Government Themselves FREQ ron
