Señor Romero to Mr. Seward

Mexican Legation in the United States of America, Washington, August 22, 1866.

Mr. Secretary: I have the honor to transmit to you, for the information of the government of the United States, copies of two letters I received to-day from General Nicolas de Regules, chief of the central army of the republic, dated in San Antonio de las Huertas, the 16th of May last and the 7th of June following, which show the state of affairs on the central military division, commanded by General Regules, who has commanded that line, and specially the condition of things in the State of Michoacan.

I also enclose you copies of portions of a letter from General Juan Alvarez, chief of the army of the south, dated in Providencia, State of Guerrero, the 29th of June last, containing some news from the army of the centre.

I embrace the occasion to renew to you, Mr. Secretary, the assurances of my most distinguished consideration.

M. ROMERO.

Hon. William H. Seward, &c., &c., &c.
