No. 1023.]

Sir: In connexion with the directions contained in your despatch No. 1456, I have the honor to transmit copies of depositions furnished to me by Mr. Morse, the consul at this place, relating to the subject therein referred to.

I have decided to retain the originals, in view of the possibility that they may be of some use in the incidental supply of evidence to counsel in the litigation now going on.

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

CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS.

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