Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Correspondence of the American Revolution, Vol. 4 The fourth provides that all British debts shall be paid. The fifth and sixth are inclosed for your perusal, as they are likely to be the least satisfactory here. The seventh stipulates that hostilities shall immediately cease, and that the British troops be withdrawn, without carrying off any property, or dismantling fortifications; that records and archives shall be restored. The eighth stipulates that the navigation of the Mississippi shall be open to us and Great Britain. The ninth, that all conquests, made in America after the ratification, shall be restored. These preliminaries are only provisional upon the determination of a peace with France, whose negotiations have not made such progress as ours. I believe they find themselves very much embarrassed by the demands of their other allies. The Count de Vergennes, in a letter of the 25th of December, says, "I cannot foresee the issue, for difficulties arise from the disposition we have shown to remove them. It would be well. Sir, to prepare Congress for every event. I do not despair-, I rather hope; but all is yet uncertain." But, Sir, whatever the event of the negotiations may be, I persuade myself the enemy will leave these States. Mr. Oswald has made some propositions to our Ministers upon this subject, proposing that they might be permitted to embark without molestation, and endeavour to recover West Florida from the Spaniards. This last communication, which you will consider as confidential, I thought might be important to your Excellency.
