I feel quite confident that Congress will bestow upon these resolutions the careful consideration to which they are eminently entitled.
I transmit, for the consideration of the Senate with a view to ratification, a convention for the adjustment of claims of citizens of the United States against the Government of the Republic of Costa Rica, signed by the plenipotentiaries of the contracting parties at San Jose on the 2d day of July last.
I confess I hail this movement on the part of Virginia with great satisfaction.
Neither the Government nor the citizens in whose behalf the convention has been concluded have any further claims upon the island of Aves.
