WASHINGTON, _June 26, 1852_.

_To the Senate of the United States_:

I have received and taken into respectful consideration the resolution

of the Senate of yesterday, adopted in executive session, requesting

information in regard to supposed negotiations between the United States

and Great Britain and between the United States and the Republics of

Nicaragua and Costa Rica, respectively. Any information which may be in

the possession of the Executive on these subjects shall in due time be

laid before the Senate, but it is apprehended that it would not comport

with the public interests to communicate it under existing

circumstances.
