Sir:

I am directed by the Secretary of the Interior to say that a copy of the "Statistical Atlas of the U. S" compiled by Gen'l F. A. Walker from the Census Reports, will be sent you on the receipt of infor-mation that you have not already been supplied with this work.

The Secretary requests that you will also indicate three "Libraries of Literary Insti-tutions" located in your State to which it would be most judicious to send copies of the same publication.

The Librarian of Congress is authorized to supply "State Libraries"
