aware what instructions have been given
TO the British feet or the American reye-
nue-eutters, but he thinks 1t very unlikely
that during friendly negotiations any
thing should occur on one side or the
other likely TO provoke any disturbance OF
the cordial relations which happily con-
tinue between thctwocouDtries. But. " he
says. 1.-THE great point Is that the negotia-
ti0ns have not been broken on and that

much harm. are not correct"
