Letter

Christian Wullweber to Hamilton Fish, April 9, 1876

No. 61. Mr. Wullweber to Mr. Fish.

No. 33.]

Sir: I have the honor to transmit (inclosure No. 1) an extract from yesterday’s El Nacional, the official paper of the Ecuadorian government, accompanied by a translation thereof, as (inclosure No. 2) containing a proclamation of President Borrero, in which he refuses to convoke a constitutional convention. This denial of immediate reforms advocated by citizens of Ecuador along the coast, as reported in my dispatch No. 27, is believed by some to create a revolutionary movement, while the majority of the people, at least at the capital, remain inapprehensive, as heretofore, and determined to support the government.

I have, &c.,

CHRISTIAN WULLWEBER.
