Sir: Your despatch of September 30 (No. 54) has been duly received. Your vigilance in communicating to me Mr. Brown’s comments on the subject of confiscation is approved. You will have learned, however, from the press, before this paper shall reach you, that the crises he apprehended were unreal.
I am, sir, your obedient servant,
WILLIAM H. SEWARD.
