I have the honor to bring to your knowledge that at this moment a trustworthy person has come to me, assuring me that on board the steamer Manhattan, which is to leave this port at three o’clock to-morrow, there are five thousand muskets, purchased by the agents of Maximilian, in violation of the laws of neutrality.
In communicating this for the purposes which may take place, I renew to you the assurance of my consideration.
