Mr. Seward to Mr. Romero
Sir: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your communications of the 5th October and 20th November last, with their several important accompaniments, which you were pleased to communicate for the information of the government of the United States. In reply, I have the honor to inform you that they have already received the consideration of this department, and that measures have been adopted which are deemed proper to meet the exigencies which they present.
I avail myself of this occasion to renew to you, sir, the assurances of my very distinguished consideration.
Señor Matias Romero, &c., &c., &c., Washington, D. C.
