[Telegram.]

Mr. Campbell to Mr. Seward

Shall I go to the city of Mexico via Vera Cruz, or to San Luis Potosi via Monterey? On this point I desire the department’s instructions. Unless the government furnish me conveyance, my progress on either route must be slow and uncertain.

LEWIS D. CAMPBELL.

Hon. William H. Seward, Secretary of State, Washington, D. C.
