: Of the government OF the United StatAs
upon matters contained IN your commuili-
cation OF December IL. and my reply 70
the same on December % l desire %
cail your excellency's most serious CON
siderntion to the danger and critical con-
dition OF this community arising. ! must
u respectEnliy submit, out OF tho attitude
which you have assumed and the Language
which yen have used III public and ia
communication to this government and
also out OF The published letter Of the
secretary OF state OF the United States
and the presidents message on the sub
3Gct of the restoration Of the monarchy.
l do not, however, claim or intimate that
ithis unfortunate situation has been IN
Intentionally created BY you or by the gov
ernTflcnt which YOU represent but arises
from a natural consnzlction 81 your AT
/ tstude and The ambiguous terms OF the

ganized and Mere amply sufficient 10 sup
press any internal disorder After yoni

gardng your policy, which were nnbigu-
GUS and for several weeks You failsd y
disclose your Intentions and have only
partially done so up TO the present mo-
ment. leaving this government to infer
what may ultimately be the result from
the letter Of Mr.. Gresham and the presl-
dents message, in which Il has been
declared in very distinct Language that
the deposad queen ought 10 be restored
To the throne BY the government Of the
United States and leavins us to infer
that those ASSUMED obligations would be
discharged. Ynnr iangnage expressed Ia
public declared that you Intended to per-
form come act when the proper time ar-
Il rived, without disclosing what this act
would be.
I5naer these circumstances there arose at
once general feeling Of diaqplet.

language ana refusal to disclose yonr pur-
pose anu from Mr., Gleshan1s letter and
