WASHINGTON, _June 27, 1850_.

_To the Senate of the United States:_

In compliance with the resolution of the Senate of the 3d instant,

requesting information in regard to the indemnity stipulated to be paid

by the Government of Peru to the Government of the United States

pursuant to the modified convention of the 17th of March, 1841, I

transmit a report from the Secretary of State and the documents by which

it was accompanied. The sums paid by that Government under the

convention are mentioned in the letters of Messrs. E. McCall & Co., of

Lima, who were appointed by my predecessor the agents to receive the

installments as they might fall due.
