Papers Relating to Foreign Affairs, Accompanying the Annual Message of the President to the Second Session Thirty-eighth Congress, Part II

Mr. Seward to Mr. Adams.

No. 1010.]

Department of State, Washington, June 27, 1864.

Sir: Your despatch of June 11, No. 716, has been received, and your proceedings therein mentioned, in relation to the difficulty between Spain and Peru, are approved.

Information received directly from London, although of no later date than the 3d of June, seems to warrant a hope that, with the aid of generous instructions from Earl Russell, the difficulty can be adjusted.

I am, sir, your obedient servant,

WILLIAM H. SEWAED.

Charles Francis Adams, Esq., &c., &c., &c.
