Sir: I transmit a copy of a letter of the 16th instant, addressed to me by Patrick Rogers, esq., and of the papers therein referred to, in relation to the case of his son, John H. Rogers, who it appears is a prisoner at Mountjoy prison, at or near Dublin.

You will, at your earliest convenience, submit these papers to her Britannic Majesty’s government, inquire into the matter, and ask for the release or early trial of the prisoner, as the case shall warrant.

I am, sir, your obedient servant,
