Sir: Your dispatch No. 454, of the 9th ultimo, informing this Department of the appointment of a new military commander of the line of Rio Grande, and inclosing translations of notes from the Mexican government relating thereto, has been read with satisfaction.
It is hoped that the instructions issued to General Garrillo will prove sufficient to arrest the marauding incursions into our territory, as the evil was becoming excessive.
I am, &c.,
HAMILTON FISH.
