Mr. Romero to Mr. Seward
Mexican Legation in the United States of America, Washington, March 14, 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 received to-day from General Porfirio Diaz, commanding the eastern military division of the Mexican republic, dated at Atoyaquillo, State of Oaxaca, the 2d of February last—one of which is addressed to the President of the republic, and the other to me—reporting his late movements against the enemy, and the precarious condition in which he finds himself for want of means.
I avail myself of the occasion to renew to you, Mr. Secretary, the assurances of my most distinguished consideration.
M. ROMERO.
Hon. William H. Seward, &c., &c., &c.
