Seward came to my house with letter to Stuart, vindicating
the course of the Treasury Department concerning Trade Orders and Regulations.
I approved the whole; but suggested that as the regulations embraced the coal
order substantially, and as Great Britain took exception to that as
particularly intended for her, he might say that, to prove the absence of such
intention and as a proof of the entire absence of any wish to vex trade, the
coal order would be rescinded.
