ANDREW JACKSON.

WASHINGTON, _January 23, 1832_.
_To the House of Representatives_:

I herewith transmit to the House of Representatives a copy of a
correspondence between the late minister of Great Britain and the late
Secretary of State of the United States on the subject of a claim of
Cyrenius Hall, a British subject and an inhabitant of Upper Canada, for
the loss which he alleges to have sustained in consequence of the
imputed seizure of a schooner (his property) by the collector of the
customs at Venice, in Sandusky Bay, in the year 1821, and the subsequent
neglect of that officer in relation to the said schooner, together with
copies of the documents adduced in support of the claim, that such
legislative provision may be made in behalf of the claimant as shall
appear just and proper in the case.

ANDREW JACKSON.

WASHINGTON, _January 24, 1832_.
_To the House of Representatives_:

In compliance with the resolution of the House of Representatives of the
20th instant, I herewith transmit a report from the Secretary of War,
containing all the information in possession of the Executive required
by that resolution.

For the reason assigned by the Secretary in his report I have to request
that the abstracts of the Choctaw reservations may be returned to the
War Department when the House shall no longer require them.

ANDREW JACKSON.

WASHINGTON, _January 26, 1832_.

I transmit herewith reports from the Secretaries of the War and Navy
Departments, containing the information required by the resolution of
the House of the 5th instant, in regard to the expenditures on
breakwaters since 1815.

WASHINGTON, _January 27, 1832_.
_To the Senate of the United States_:

In compliance with the resolution of the Senate of the 18th instant, I
herewith transmit a report[12] of the Secretary of State, which,
together with the letter of His Britannic Majesty's charge d'affaires
heretofore communicated, demanding the execution of the opinion
delivered by the sovereign arbiter, contains all the information
requested by the said resolution, omitting nothing that may enable the
Senate to give the advice requested by my message of the 7th of December
last, on the question of carrying into effect the opinion of the King of
the Netherlands.

ANDREW JACKSON.
