In pursuance with the request of the Senate in their resolution of the 4th instant, I “return” herewith, “for their further action, the resolution advising and consenting to the appointment of Isaac H. Wright as navy agent at Boston.”  It will be observed that the resolution of the Senate herewith returned contains the advice and consent of that body to the appointment of several other persons to other offices not embraced in their resolution of the 4th instant, and it being impossible to comply with the request of the Senate without communicating to them the whole resolution, I respectfully request that so far as it relates to the other cases than that of Mr. Wright it may be returned to me.
