No. 34.]

On inquiry it is found that both the vessels you mention are employed in other duty, from which they cannot be spared; and the Navy Department has none in your vicinity that is available. You will therefore proceed by whatever conveyance or route you may find most speedy or practicable.

F. W. SEWARD, Acting Secretary.

Lewis D. Campbell, Esq., New Orleans.
