Sir: Your dispatch No. 64, of the 12th June, inclosing a copy of correspondence with the Tsungli Yamen, relative to the emigration-laws of the United States, has been received.

The Department approves the friendly spirit manifested by you in furnishing the information sought, and is convinced of the desirability of impressing on the Chinese government on all proper occasions the care taken by this Government to prevent wrong-doing and injury to Chinese as in the cooly-traffic, and the desire to freely receive and liberally treat honest Chinese emigrants.

I am, &c.,

JOHN L. CADWALADER,
Acting Secretary.
