SEWARD. 87 of October, that I cannot help hoping you will send orders by telegraph to stop them. " I asked Mr. Seward if he had telegraphed or writ- ten as requested. He said he had not ; it was not strictly within the province of the State Department ; the court would not be likely to be governed by any- thing from him on a subject of naval concern; he therefore wished me to send word to the court to give up the mail. I assured him I was not prepared to send any such order ; that I could not d...o it without a vio- lation of law, and that the judge knew his duty too well to regard such an order from him or me ; that the mails were legally in the custody of the court, and ought not to be given up without examination, for, in all probability, the best, and perhaps the only evidence that the Peterhoff was a good prize, was to be found in the mail bag. It would be wrong toward the govern- ment and unjust to the captors to part with this evi- dence. He was greatly disturbed ; said he was committed by his letter to me of the thirty-first of October, which had directed and virtually pledged the gov- ernment that the mails should be given up without search.
