[A similar message was sent to the House of Representatives, in answer
to a resolution of that body of January 24, 1882.]
EXECUTIVE MANSION, _January 28, 1882_.
_To the Senate of the United States:_
In further answer to the resolution of the Senate of December 12, 1881,
I herewith transmit the remainder of the correspondence touching the
desired modification of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty. The dispatch of the
Secretary of State of November 29, 1881, was not sent to the Senate with
the former dispatches, because at that time no advice had been received
that its contents had been communicated to the British Government.
