Mr. Secretary of State:

By your note dated to-day you were good enough to transmit me eleven copies of the circular of the honorable the Secretary of the Treasury, dated March 24 last, “prohibiting the importation of foreign laborers under contract.”

I am under great obligations for the transmission of this document, which I have hastened to transmit to my Government, and I have the honor to offer to your excellency, and, through your kind intermediation, to the honorable Mr. Fairchild my thanks.

Accept, etc.,

Fava.
