Mr. Campbell to Mr. Seward

New Orleans, June 10, 1867.

I learn that quarantine regulations forbid communication with Havana and Vera Cruz. I am also informed that transportation by English and French steamers from Havana to Vera Cruz is uncertain. Besides, I dislike going to Mexico under the English or French flag, unless you peremptorily instruct me to do so.

LEWIS D. CAMPBELL.

Hon. William H. Seward, Secretary of State, Washington, D. C.
