Letter

Charles Francis Adams to William H. Seward, July 1, 1863

[Extracts.]

Mr. Adams to Mr. Seward.

No. 441.]

Sir: I transmit, out of the ordinary course, a report of the proceedings in the House of Commons last night, on the motion made by Mr. Roebuck. It is difficult to imagine a more awkward situation than that in which he has succeeded in placing as well his own government as the Emperor of the French.

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

CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS.

Hon. William H. Seward, Secretary of State.
