Reserved draft against separating the political from the military command and against separatism, naming Bandini: 'Unos cuantos aspirantes en cortísimo número, pero llenos de presuncion é ignorancia son los que pretenden separar á este Territorio de la Rep.a Mex.a'; they act 'por conducto del Diput.o D.n Juan Bandini que es el director de todos' so a 'hijo del país' gets the political command. Argues Cal. is 'un país circundado de enemigos interiores y esteriores, que solo puede gobernarse militarm.te'; denies self-interest ('estoy p.a marcharme') and warns separation 'seria un gérmen de eternas discordias'. Marked 'Reservado'; Savage's margin mark is 'o', not his usual '+'. Spans n488-n489.
