Excerpt from The Writings and Speeches of Daniel Webster, Vol. 12 of 18: Illustrated With Portraits and Plates; Diplomatic Papers and Miscellaneous Letters

The substance of the despatch was, that there was a state ment in a paragraph of the President's message to Congress, at the opening of the present session, of serious import, because, to persons unacquainted with the facts, it would tend to convey the supposition, not only that the question of the right of search had been disavowed by the plenipotentiary at Washington, but that Great Britain had made concessions on that point.

That the President knew that the right of search never formed the subject of discussion during the late negotiation, and that neither was any concession required by the United States government, nor made by Great Britain.
