Mr. Seward to Mr. Adams.
Department of State, Washington, March 16, 1863.
Sir: Your despatch (No. 338) of the 27th ultimo, relative to the surreptitious exportation of specie from Mobile in the British war vessel Vesuvius, has been received. Although information of disapprobation of the course of Mr. Vice-Consul Magee in the matter had previously been communicated by Lord Lyons, it is gratifying to have the confirmation thereof which your despatch affords, for which you will make proper acknowledgments to Earl Russell.
I am, sir, your obedient servant,
WILLIAM H. SEWARD.
Charles Francis Adams, Esq., &c., &c., &c.
