LOCATION or THE UNITED STATES,
LoSDoS, December l.
DEPARTMENT OF STATE,

SIR: During the seasons offspring and su m mer,
which have now passed, you transmitted TO this
Department the manifold expressions which were
made by the Government, public authorities,
civic, ecclesiastical and educational corporations
and associations, as well as by public assem- blcs
Of citizens and by individual citizens OF the
realm, Of their feelings Of sympathy and con-
dolence with the Government aud people Of the
United States In the calamity which they had
suffered In the lamsnted death of the late Presi-
dent Abraham Lincoln. The same proceedings
spoke In one voice the language Of indignant
reprobation against the perhdi us po itical crime
Of fassassinatiOn, by which the eminently useful
and honorable career Of the late Chief Magistrate
was 80 abruptly brought to q fearful, yet, for
him, most triumphant end.
Owing to some peculiar casualties the efficiency
of this department was impaired at the time
these dispatches were received. They obtained
only a simple and formal acknowledgment from
the presiding Secre ary, and no Instructions were
given you concerning the recognition OF the pa
pers alluded to by this Government. have now
10 inform you that all Of the conmu nications
thus received were, without any delay, submit;
were read by him with emotions Of profound
sens bility and gratitude. It was his expectation
that the parties from whom these generous and
sympathetic utterances had come would he duly
and properly assured Of their consolatory inhu-
once, no. only upon himself, but upon the whole
America people. 1t Is deeply regretted by this
Government that this expectation OF the Presi-
dent was found impracticable.
Our Government, simply constructed with
adaptation to the transaction of necessary ahaifs
in the ordinary course Of administration, found
itself, In the condition OF this department which
then existed, inadequate to the immediate ac-
acknowledgement Of such various and vast Obliga-
tions suddenly and unex pectedly incurred. The
regret, however, Is in some meas ure mitgated by
the fact that these expressions Of British sympa-
thy and good will were only part Of similar
Manifestations Of the came feelings which oe-
Cured In every part Of the world. Neyerthe-
less, the President earnestly desires that racOg-
milton shall even now be made Of the sympAthies
and condolences which were thus poured in
upon us with profusion that did honor 10 hu-
man nature.
You will attempt to execute this purpose, so
far as Great Britain is concerned, by giving to
Earl Russell copy of this dispatch, and by pro.
mitigating itin England, either without accom-
pan ying references t. the addresses, resolutions
letters, and other testimonials, to which have
referred, rs shall bo found practicable.
