Of the attitude which you have assumed and the
cs.mmnncations to this Government and also out Of
the published letter Of the Secretary OF State of the
subject of the restoration of the monarchy.
do not. however. claim or intimate tina, this I'M
by you or by the Government which you represent
but arises from natural construction Of your
attitude and the ambiguous terms of the statements
Al the time Of your arrival In this country the
forces OF this Government organized, and
we're amply sufficient to suppress any internal

The fact is we'll known that you. as admitted by
yourself in your communication or December is,
without the consent knowledge of this Govern
ment, have held negotiations with the deposed
Queen for the purpose of oyerturning this Govern

monarchy. i am not prepared to state that this
Government entertains this opinion, although It's

In consequence Of your attitude In this behalf the
enemies OF the Government believing In your In

the officers Of this Government have been made.
