(What has occurred since to cause their removal to Bericia?) It was not long siter he arrived, before he was called on to execute the instructions of the So:re- tary, relating to the violation of oar neutral obli- gations with Mexico, which being the firat in a series of special instractions, be considered para mount to ali others, and at the time he did not, and could not, dcubt that they were so ocon- sidered by the President, as well as tbe Sec- retary of the instructions and the President’s p:oclama tion, which are too plain and positive to be mis- understood; and whilst he literally complied with’ them, he tn no instance exceeded them, sad in tris opinion we are fully sustained by the civil off ers who bave been eseociated with him in enforciag the laws. He did no more than “maintain oar interna- tional obligations, by preventing unlawfal exvedi- tions against the territories of 9 foreign power,” “to the utmost of his ability used all proper means to detect the fittirg out” (in which he su :ceeded) ‘of simed expeditions against a country with whica the United States are at peace,” and he zealously and« Ey meno co-operated with the civil authori ies in maintaining the neutrality laws.
