DEPARTMENT OF STATE, Washington, September 17, 1861.

JOHN A. KENNEDY, Esq.,

Superintendent of Police, New York.

DEAR SIR: I have received your letter of the 14th, relative to the National Zeitung and M. C. Stanley. In reply I have to state that if you will furnish me with the names of one or two persons whose arrest would be likely to produce a proper effect upon the course of that paper I will communicate a decision upon the subject.

I am, very truly, yours,

WILLIAM H. SEWARD
