WASHINGTON, _March 29, 1832_.
_To the Senate_:
In compliance with the resolution requesting the "President to inform
the Senate whether any, and, if any, what, communications have passed
between the executive department of the United States and the executive
or legislative department of the State of Maine relative to the
northeastern boundary, and whether any proposition has been made by
either that the boundary designated by the King of the Netherlands shall
be established for a _consideration_ to be paid to Maine, and, if so,
what consideration was proposed, so far as the same may not be
inconsistent with the public interest," I transmit herewith a report
from the Secretary of State.
