Wm. H. Seward to Horatio J. Perry, September 21, 1863
Mr. Seward to Mr. Perry
No. 10.]
Department of State, Washington, September 21, 1863.
Sir: Your despatch of August 26 (No. 110) has been received. The general views of the United States concerning the interests of society and government in Mexico, and on this continent, have been heretofore fully made known to all parties who officially expressed to us any concern on that subject. While adhering to these views, the President does not perceive any necessity for entering at present into the European debates which have arisen out of the changing phases of the war with France against Mexico. You will be promptly advised if it shall be deemed important to enter into explanations on that subject with the cabinet of Madrid.
I am, sir, your obedient servant,
WILLIAM H. SEWARD.
Horatio J. Perry, Esq., &c., &c., Madrid.
