Tracy Robinson to Allan A. Burton , United States, August 25, 1865

Mr. Robinson to Mr. Burton

Sir: Your kind favor, marked private, reached me on the 11th instant, since which time I have been confined by illness, and am still very weak.

Mr. Rice will be back on the 10th of September.

The revolution in this State has not come to any decided issue as yet, although we expect to hear something decisive each day.

I enclose the last Panama Star and Herald.

General business on the isthmus is pretty much suspended for the present.

The steamer Costa Rica arrived from New York this morning, enabling me to forward your mail by this opportunity.

The State of Georgia, Captain Preble, has been relieved by the James Adger, Captain McDiarmid.

On this side of the isthmus all is quiet. Your enclosures were sent forward.

I remain, very respectfully, your obedient servant,
