Mr. Seward to Mr. Dayton
No. 401.]
Department of State, Washington, September 22, 1863.
Sir: I enclose, for your information, a translation of a note of the 20th of July last, which has been addressed to me by Mr. J. M. Arroyo, who calls himself under secretary of state and foreign affairs of the Mexican empire, setting forth recent proceedings, with a view to the organization of the new government at Mexico; also a copy of a memorandum which has been left with me by a person calling himself General Cortes, alleged to have been formerly governor of the Mexican State of Sonora. No reply has been, or probably will be, made to either of these papers.
I am, sir, your obedient servant,
WILLIAM H. SEWARD.
Wm. L. Dayton, Esq.
