GALLATIN TO J. Q. ADAMS.

No. 160.

Sir,

I have the honor to enclose the copy of my answer to Mr. Pasquier’s letter of the 31st of July. I have since seen him occasionally: he said that he had read my letter, and expressed a wish that we might arrange the difficulties; but he has not yet invited me to confer on the subject. It is true that the military plot lately discovered has engrossed almost exclusively the attention of this government. I understand that if we cannot agree here, it is intended to send back Mr. Hyde de Neuville to the United States, with powers to treat at Washington. This gentleman does not, I believe, wish to return unless that object should render it necessary.

I have the honor, &c.
