Letter

William H. Seward to Cassius M. Clay, August 12, 1863

Mr. Seward to Mr. Clay.

No. 31.]

Sir: Your interesting despatch of July 23 (No. 14) has been received. My information from the various European capitals being duly collated, has produced a very strong conviction, that although the diplomatic discussion upon the Polish insurrection may be protracted, and may possibly become an angry one, yet there will be no attempt at actual intervention.

I am, sir, your obedient servant,

WILLIAM H. SEWARD.

Cassius M. Clay, Esq., &c., &c., &c.
