Title	Letter from Lord John Russell to Queen Victoria
Date	12 February 1851
Writer	Russell, John, Lord
Addressee	Victoria, Queen
Description	Russell returns the letter from the King of Portugal. From Sir Hamilton Seymour's dispatches Queen Victoria will see that the Portuguese Government is disposed to admit the principle of some of the British claims. The conduct pursued at Macao by the British Government, namely, to acknowledge a wrong, and spontaneously to endeavour to repair it, will go far to maintain friendly relations. Seymour deserves much praise for his conduct.
