Mr. Adams to Mr. Seward
No. 1049.]
Legation of the United States, London, September 15, 1865.
Sir: I have this day received a visit from Mr. Perry, the consul at Tunis, who came to accompany the first envoy to the United States ever sent by the Bey. This is a very distioguished-looking gentleman, who called on me to express his master’s satisfaction in the restoration of the country and the termination of the war, as well as his own pleasure in the prospect of his mission. I reciprocated the sentiments so far as I could. He leaves this country next week in the steamer Persia. At the desire of Mr. Penny, I have communicated these facts to you in advance of his arrival.
I have the honor to be, sir, your obedient servant,
CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS.
Hon. William H. Seward,Secretary of State, Washington, D. C.
