I herewith transmit to Congress a report of the Secretary of State, with the accompanying letter, addressed to him by the commission appointed under the act of Congress of the last session for carrying into effect the convention between the United States and Spain.
I transmit to the Senate a report of the Secretary of the Navy, complying with their resolution of the 24th of May, 1836.
