Mr. Seward to Mr. Adams.
No. 475.]
Department of State, Washington, February 13, 1863.
Sir: The mails of the “Europa” have arrived at last. Your despatch of the 22d of January (No. 300) has been received, and with it the proceedings and resolutions of the popular meetings recently held at Chesterfield, Salsford, and Cross Hills. The President is highly gratified with those demonstrations of good feeling towards the United States, and desires you to make his satisfaction known to the parties by whom this generous support is given, in such an unostentatious manner as shall carry with it evidences of sincerity, and, at the same time, be consistent with the courtesy due to the British government.
I am, sir, your obedient servant,
WILLIAM H. SEWARD.
Charles Francis Adams, Esq., &c., &c., &c.
