In answer to the resolution of the House of Representatives of the 8th
instant, asking for information in regard to the alleged kidnaping in
Mexico of the child of an American lady, I transmit a report from the
Acting Secretary of State, to whom the resolution was referred.

WASHINGTON, D.C., _January 12, 1866_.
_To the Senate and House of Representatives_:
I transmit herewith a communication addressed to me by Messrs. John
Evans and J.B. Chaifee as "United States Senators elect from the State
of Colorado," together with the accompanying documents.
Under authority of the act of Congress approved the 21st day of
March, 1864, the people of Colorado, through a convention, formed a
constitution making provision for a State government, which, when
submitted to the qualified voters of the Territory, was rejected.
In the summer of 1865 a second convention was called by the executive
committees of the several political parties in the Territory, which
assembled at Denver on the 8th of August, 1865.
