Sir: I have to acknowledge the receipt of your despatches Nos. 85 and 86, both of which relate to the telegraphic communication sent by you to this department at the special request of the Emperor in behalf of Maximilian.

In connection with this subject it may be well to inform you that nothing is omitted that could be done properly, and it is done in the way that seemed likely to be useful.

I am, sir, your obedient servant,

F. W. SEWARD, Acting Secretary,

John A. Dix, Esq., &c., &c., &c.
