Washington, July 29, 1861.
Sir: Mr. Fay’s despatch of July 2 (No. 431) has been duly received. The account he has given us of his retirement and your entrance upon the mission, as also the sentiments expressed by him and by yourself to the president of the republic, and the reply of that eminent magistrate, are exceedingly interesting. The President of the United States appreciates very highly the liberal and friendly feelings of the Swiss republic, and derives from them new motives to maintain relations so auspiciously established.

I am, sir, your obedient servant,
WILLIAM H. SEWARD.
George G. Fogg, Esq., &c., &c., Berne.
