To the Right Honorable (iruri'e Cauning, First
I.ordoftlie Treasury, ^^.c:
SiK : I now copic lo the cotir’iidinp;
toj)ic in your letter of J.'»iniary 27th ;
you introduce it in the following niaii-
tier :
“ The undersigned is at a loss to understand
on what ground it was assumed at NVasiiington
that there would be, ut all tunes, an unabated
disposili(»n, on tlu* ]j.irt of the llritish Govern
ment, to n.ake tin* tnulc of its \Vcst liuliaC'olo-
nies the subject of diploivatic arrangement,’'
This is excecdinfily loose lanpiias^e
United States hnd reason to apprehend
that siicli was inteiuleil to be the opera
tion of your act, Mr. (lallatin was in
structed to make a correspondin'; con
cession, on the part of the United States,
of the only serious point of difference
on which the neg;otiation had been sus
pended. So much for the “unconquer
able diflerence of principle.”
You io on to give one more reason
wliy the nctrotiation was broken off, ia
the following words : ' .
“ Hitherto, w hen the trade with the Britisl*
West India Polonies had l>een opened al all, it
had been chir tl\, though not exclusively, tO the
United States,
'I'o no other country had it been opened by
specific ami positive convention.
But a time had now arriveil, w hen frommotivcSI
of general policy, Great Britain thought it ad-
vi.sahle to allow aceess to her colonies to all
foreign powers, without exception, on convli-
tions teiidered alike to all.
Such inli.srriininate opening could only bo
efleeted by some |)ioccss common to all thos«
who were permitted or invited to take the ad
vantage of it, impartiality was thus maintained
ti)v. Aids all parties, and the power of control

lor an ofhcud dt?spatoli, on SO important.
a subject. AVhat wpriant have you to
intimate that “ it was assumed at Wosh-
ini;;ton, that yon would, at all
be rearly to treat” on this question ? ,\11
that was assumed at \N asliinf;ton was,
that, at Ihis- particjilar lime, tJarinff
a pending ues'olialton, there would bo
a willine;i)ess, on the pari of the Ih itish
Government, if not to resume the ne-
pjotiatioi), at least to p;ivH fair notice of
the dosii^n to break it off.
You s;o on to say,
“ The circumstanccH of the ease were entire
ly changed.”
Changed from what? Changed since
when ? Oti neither of tiiose points do
you state any thin;^ distinct or intelHgi-

You here give, Inadvertently, vcr/
CMcellent reasons why you ought not to
have broken off the nejiotiation witll
the f^nited States. I’hose reasons are,
that you had pursued a different course
from that which you had pursued with
other powers, in reference to the West
India trade. It is true, this was not oufc
of favor to us ; it was merely the eonso-
(jtience of thc peculiar position in w'hich
the United States stand, in reference to
the West Indies. With other powers
you had not nef'otiated, you had iiep;o-
tiated with us ; and the two govern-
ments had also passed acts referring
reciprocally to each other’s legislation.
A negotiation, thouj^h suspended, waa
penilitif; between them. Tlie differenco
was substantially reducer! to one point.
By the act of July 13:25, you had
chan;^ed your colonial system, in a mat
ter most intimately’connected with that;
point. We were heartily ready to meet
you ; this rcailiness w’as unanimously
avowed on the floor of the Senate, and
of this avowal you had cogni/:ance. Im
mediately on the risin}; of Con{?re.ss,
instructions were g;iven to Mr. Gallatia
to meet you on the only remaining
points of difference, and on the very day
of his arrival, you shut the loor of ne
gotiation on him, shut the ports of youp
colonies on us, and tell us with a gravity
[ can hardly think not alfected, that
“you are at a loss to understand on
what ground it was assumed ai Washing
ton, that there would beat all times, an
utiahated disposition, on the part of th*
British Government, to nej^otiate on this
subject,”
You co.nclude this part of your letter
by-sayinj;:
*' The undersigned believes that ke has nov
touched on every topic in the last note addresa-
el to him by Mr, (i diatin, to w hich he h:id oc
casion to advert in former stage* of their cor-
re.spondence. He will not allow himself to hei
draw n again into a discussion of topics already
more than vufliciently debated.”
I also have touched on every topic,
and on nearly eveiy sentence in youp
long letter. You have acted wisely in
the determination, “ not tosnller youi-
