Sir: I have to acknowledge the receipt of your No. 329, and to observe that the approval of this government, which (as appears by your note of July 20, last, to the Argentine minister of foreign affairs) you then anticipated would be given in respect of the efforts of yourself and of our minister at Santiago, in the settlement of the question of limits between the Argentine Republic and Chili, has already been accorded in a previous instruction.
