Mr. Adams to Mr. Seward.

No. 324.]

Sir: I have received from Mr. Sprague, the consul at Gibraltar, a telegram announcing that the Sumter left the port of Gibraltar on the night of the 7th instant, in a very high wind, when it was impossible to communicate with the Chippeway. He reports her as bound westward.

I have the honor to be, sir, your obedient servant,

CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS.

Hon. William H. Seward, Secretary of State, Washington, D. C.
