Department of State, Washington, April 29, 1863.
My Lord: This department has reliable information that a vessel is being fitted out at Nassau, in the island of New Providence, to cruise against the shipping of the United States, under the flag of the insurgents. I am consequently directed to request you to call the attention of her Majesty’s authorities there to the subject, in order that a stop may be put to the proceeding.
I have the honor to be your obedient servant,
W. HUNTER, Acting Secretary.
Right Hon. Lord Lyons, &c., &c., &c.
