Msjestys government as 10 the which, in the
present posture Of affairs In the United States may pro-
Rerly be adopted by the governments Of England and
I have now to instruct your Exceency to acQuaint
ths French Minister that her government are
ths so-caed Confederate States and the surrender
The dispersion with exception, Of the armies hitherto
alternative but TO consider the civil ct end
and TO shape their course accordingly.
OF the United States had already In this
1ron Of things formally renounced the exercise as re-
cards neutrals Of the rights OF begerent; but the
delay Of any such renunciaton their part cannot be
considered to afford sufficient warrant 70 neutral Powers
70 continue to admit begerent character 10 confede
ration Of States which has been actually dissolved Much
embarrassment and complication In the relations be-
tween the United States and neutral Powers could not
fail 70 result from the Of the latter in such
course while no advantage could accrue 10 any party
from It.
The government Of the Emperor will probably view
the matter In the same light and under this impression
her Nscstys government desire your Exccency TO PRO-
poss that the two should agree 81 once 70
AAopt the following measures namely 81
