States. ' When the ' relative strength of the two powerB in itf orth America is con sidered, it should be recollected that the BritisnT dominions in that quarter do not contain a p-fpulati:,n of fiVc hundred thousand souU, whereas the territory of the U States contains a bonuUtion of more, thao seven mi'f lions : that the naval resources of the lU. Sutes are at hand for attack, and that the naval rcaourcea,of Great Bri- i tain are on the. otjier side of the At lantic; The military possesion of those lakes is not, therefore, necessa ry for the protection of the United States. .ThV proposal for allowing the teri ritorica n the suihern bank of the lakes hbovc mcntiontd to remain in the possession ol the government of the' United States, provided no forti fications should be erected on the 1 shores, and no armament permitted 00 the waters, has been made, for the purpose af mtnifesting, that security and not inquisition of territory is the object of the British government, and that they have no desire to.throw ob stacles in the way of any commerce which the people of the United States may be desirous of carrying on upon the lakes in time of peace. The undersigned, with the anxious wish to rectify all misunderstanding, h-ve thus more fully explained the grounds upon which they brought for ward the propositions contained in their former note respecting the boun daries of the British dominions in N America. ' ( They do not wish to insist upon them beyond what the circumstances, may fa.rly require. They are ready, amicably, to discuss the details of them with a view to the adoption of any modifications which the Amert can plenipotentiaries, or their govern meet, may have to suggest, if they re not incompatible with the object itself. With respect to the boundary of the district of Maine, and that of the N. Western frontier of the U.States, the Uiiderstgoed were not prepared to an ticipate the objections coutained ip the note of the American plenipoten tiaries, 4t that they were instructed to treat for the revision of their bounda ry lines, with the statement which they have subsequently made, that they had no authority to cede an) part, however insignificant ot the territo ries of the Uuitcd States, although the proposal left it open to them to demand an equivalent for such ces sion either in frontier or otherwise The American plenipotentinries must be aware that the boundary of the district of Maine has never been correctly ascertained ; that "the one asserted at present 'by the American government, by which the direct com muntcaiion between Halifax & Que bec beccmesjotetrupted, was not in: &mempianon ox ine.ouusn plenipo tentiaries who concluded the treaty of 1783, and that the greater 'part of the territory io question is actually unoc cupied. -. rThe'ubdirsTOTcd' are persuaded that an arrangement' on this , point might be easily mlde,'if entered into with a' spirit of conciliation, without any prejudice: to thejntcreita of the tnstTjcr 10 ques uoo.; -; . !.

The American plenipotentiaries state that their government could not have expected such a discussion, and appear resolved, sit opcey to reject a ny proposition on this head ; repre' senting it ns a demand contrary to the I acknowledged principles 01 pubac law, tantamount to a cession of onr third of the territor'uil dominions of the U. S. and required to be admitted without discussion. The proposition which is thus re presented is, that the Indian nations, which h-.-vfi been durin? the wnr in - aUianre with Great Britain. sHou'd ! at its terminati u be includ-d in :he pacification: and, with a view t their prrmanent tranquility nd secu rity, that the British government is willing to take as a basis of an arti cle on the subject of a boundary for tbbse nations, the stipulations which 4he American government cdntractci n 1795 subject,. however, to' modifi. catt6ds. . 4 After the declaration, publicly made to those Indian nations by the governor general of Canada, that G. Britain would not desert them, could the . American government really ; persuade itself that ;no propsitioo re lating to those nations would be ad vanced and did' Lord Castlereaj' note of the 4th November, 1813, im ply so great a sacifice of honor, or ex clude from discission every subject, ; excepting what immediatelv related to the maritime questions referred to in it When the undersigned assured the American plenipotentiaries of the an xious wi'sh)f the British government thai the nego iation might terminate in a peace honorable to both parties, it could not 'have been imagined That the American plenipotentiaries would t he occs conclude that his majesty' government was prepared to abandon the Indian nations to their, fate, nor could it have been foreseen that tht American government would ; have considered Jr as .derogatory to it honor tb to admit a propoiition b which the tranquility of those nations might be secured. . 'ilife British Plenipotentiaries have yet to learn that it is contrary to the acknowledged principiesof publicikw to include o Hies' in a negociation for peace, oj that it isv contrary to the practice of all civilized nations to pro pose that a Provision should be made for their, future security. i Ths; treaty of Greenville establish- ed the boundaries between the Uni ted" States and the Indian nations J"be A merican ' PlenipotentiaTie? must be( aware that; the wgr wiich hasVmce broken out,?thwIabroga;J thattretv.
