Mr. Seward to Mr. Harvey.
No. 143.]
Department of State, Washington, August 9, 1864.
Sir: Your despatches from No. 280 to 285, inclusive, have been received, and the political information which they communicate is interesting and instructive. Your prompt dissemination of the facts connected with the destruction of the Alabama was very proper, and I have no doubt it served a useful purpose.
The subject of your No. 285 shall receive consideration.
I am, sir, your obedient servant,
WILLIAM H. SEWARD.
James E. Harvey, Esq., &c., &c., &c., Lisbon.
