Legation of the United States, Athens, June 18, 1872.
Sir: In response to your verbal request, made some time since, to be furnished with documents emanating from the Government of the United States relating to civil-service reform, I have the honor to transmit herewith three documents on that subject which have been forwarded by the State Department at Washington for the use of the Greek government. These papers fully explain the system that has been adopted by the executive department of the Government of the United States to govern appointments to office.
I have, &c.,
