Enclosure 5 in No. 2. Copy of a Letter from the Austrian Consul to Mr. John Morrison. Sib,— 29, St. Swithin's Lane (8.C.), 18th April, 1867. In reply to your note dated 4th instant, I am sorry to say that this Consulate-General does not possess any printed documents or books (in English language) respecting Austrian Courts of Arbitration. Such documents or books could only be procured to you from Vienna, but in German language. There is here an Austrian lawyer, Dr. Zimmermann, of whom I beg to enclose the address, and by whom, I suppose, you could get the best information about this matter. I am, &c, John Morrison, Esq. C.
