Sit Without waitinf for the , f wroalUy of

think it right to inform you at once that my ac
ceptance or refute! of that high appointment
will depend entirely v upon public aad national
conaideretiona, of which you, youreelf, will ba
the judge. Personally I can have no wiah for
thia office; but if you believe that f eta be of

would be both military ard. diplonjttic tba

I beg you to believe, air, that nothing : ael
fith or peraontl dicHtre thia propaeed ttipula-

from a trmraugb conviction that, with a ecbordi
nate command, I could do no gear in tht army!
on tht contrary, that my presence there would
be improperand mhchievoua ; fori tm known,
fiora my public speeches, to tfieapprove the
plana, both ot the fate and ol the preaent eoet
mender-the- defeneivt policy of one an, the
San Jnan of Ulloa attack of the other; and thia
being known, ray preeenoe would operate aa an
implied censure on the two genera la, and might
