It is difficult to say that such vessels can claim any interference of the Government in their behalf, into whosesoever hands they may happen to fall.

More from John Tyler
It is only after acquiring Texas, that the question of boundary can arise between the United States and Mexico.
Mexico has still to learn that however freely we may indulge in discussion among ourselves, the American people will tolerate no interference in their domestic affairs by any foreign government.
Texas had entered into the treaty of annexation upon the invitation of the Executive, and when for that act she was threatened with a renewal of the war on the part of Mexico she naturally looked to this Government to interpose its efforts…
I feel it to be my duty to communicate, for your consideration, the rejected treaty.
