PAPERS OF MIRABEAU BUONAPARTE LAMAR
like to see him transfered to France, or some other court.- But every one will agree that it was due to Texas, according to diplomatic usage, when he was specially charged with this subject and failed of its ac• complishment within a reasonable time, be should have voluntarily re· turned to give his government full oppertunity of trying another.- His expressing his intention of returning in November next, does away with all difficulty on this score. The free navigation of the intermediate rivers between the two coun· tries- the settlement of our border Indian policy- the reciprocal ex• emption of the citizens of each country from imprisonment for debt- our slave and general commercial relations- but above all the mutual obligations of good neighborhood in keeping off European intrusion from the northern States of Mexico, both upon our border, and that of the U. S. are sufficient reasons for the speedy accomplishment of this treaty.- .. I allow it may be considered poor surplusage to add to the foregoing reasons, my warm personal 'wishes, for the appointment not only of my :friend, but of yours and the countrys, still I do so.- Very Respectfully
Your obt hmble svt Thos. J Green [rubric]
