NEW YORK, July 14,
1863.
(Received 4.25 p.m.)
Hon. E. M. STANTON,
Secretary of War:
SIR: Your dispatch received. Demonstrations very
threatening. Governor Seymour is with me, and all the authorities, United
States, State, and city, are co-operating in efforts to suppress it; but the
military force at command is altogether inadequate. If you can render any
assistance by sending a military force, please do so. I will keep you advised.
GEO. OPDYKE,
Mayor.
