9 In conclusion, and reverting to the subject of my 4th paragrap ,
would call on von to consider carefully fhether the course you have adopted
laid down for your, and his, guidance—either just, or geneious. That officer,
placed as he is in a most delicate and trying position totheperforman f
the duties of which he lias received the approbation of Government and
continues to command mine, as he will/also, I trust, obtain a renewal of that of
Government, should fairly look tq you for support and encouragement.
I regret to say the contrary has become your custom, and m place 01
aiding him with your countenance aid protection, you do all in your power to
depreciate and nullify his zealous efforts. I have been always most willing
and ready to give you my best Support in every respect, hut m the line you
are now pursuing, so directly opposed to my orders, such can no longer be tlie
case.
