Charles Francis Adams, Esq, &c, Sir: / have

dispatch No. 1922, together with pa pers which
contain an introductory decree which has been
made by the Vice Chancellor in the suit of the

was instituted for the recovery of 1856 bales OF
cotton.

the introductory is found among the ame pa

have affirmed the title OF the United States to
the property in question If il was With the
judgment OF the Chancellor, and not with the
reasons no assigns for such judgment, il might
seem proper for the Governments to leave the
subject untouched The frankness, however
which ought to be practieed in the proceedings

The United States do not Unit that the com

standard OF instruction is now or has at any
previous time been Government de faeto. or ia
any political power capable of taking,
holding, asserting or maintaining corporate
rights IN any form, whether municipal or inter
national. Ii is true that different view of the
character OF the insurgents has seemed to end
favor with some portions Of the British nation
and even with the British Government Unjust
