Letter
MILLER, United States Attorney to J. S. Black , Attorney-General, September 1, 1859
Mr. Miller, district attorney, to Mr. Black, Attorney-General.
Office United States Attorney, New Orleans, September 1, 1859.
Sir: Your letter of the 18th instant, in regard to a reported hostile expedition against Nicaragua, said to be now on foot in this district, and inclosing a copy of a previous letter on the same subject addressed to my predecessor, was duly received.
In this community no such report as the one alluded to by you has prevailed, and I am satisfied the rumors which have reached the Department are without foundation.
I am deeply impressed with the views expressed in your letter, and shall not fail to exert a watchful vigilance to detect and frustrate any attempted violations of our neutrality laws.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
HENRY C. MILLER,
United States Attorney.
United States Attorney.
Hon. J. S. Black, Attorney-General.
