In his despatch to the British Min
lister acknowledging the receipt of
Earl Russell's despatch, Secretary
Seward expresses the qualification of
the President at the action of the
British Government, but renews the
protests against the joint action OF the
British and French Governments in
conceding belligerent rights to the in
surgents, as an unfriendly act and con-
trary to International Law. He also
expresses regret at the reservation
continued in Earl Russelps despatch
in favor of rebel cruisers, and de-
mands that such piratical vessels
shall be delivered mp to the United
States. He also declares the right
and intention Of the United States
Government to capture any such pi-
ratical craft under whatever flag they
may be placed, refusing to recognize
the validity of any transfer that may
be made.
