Mr. Wood to Mr. Seward.
No. 158.]
Legation of the United States,
Copenhagen, April 20, 1864.
Sir: From the note of Mr. Vedel, assistant minister of state, and on the part of the minister, and from my reply, the Secretary of State will see with what respect the suggestion in relation to the Bremen and Hamburg steamers has been received.
The fight at Dübbel was a severe one; some 1,200 wounded have already arrived. The Danes lost heavily; the Prussians still more so.

BRADFORD R. WOOD, Minister
