United States Consulate, Tunis,
July 6, 1867.
Sir : Since my last despatch the general health of this city has decidedly improved, though the accounts from the interior of the regency are far from being satisfactory. The cholera has appeared in very many villages, among some wandering tribes and in the army of the Bey, though it is by no means so destructive as in former years.

I have the honor to be, very respectfully, your obedient servant,
AMOS PERRY.
Hon. William H. Seward, Secretary of State, Washington, D. C.
