Washington, September 14, 1861.
Sir: Your despatch of August 30 (No. 35) has been received. While I regret with you that the administration of the laws of Great Britain is such as to render comparatively ineffectual your efforts to defeat there the designs of parties in that country injurious to the United States, I have great pleasure in saying that the information we receive from you concerning them is often very valuable, and enables us to put our own authorities here in a way of vigilant surveillance which promises good results.
I am, sir, respectfully, your obedient servant,
WILLIAM H. SEWARD.
Charles Francis Adams, Esq., &c., &c., &c.
