Hon. Sec. of Navy Executive Mansion June 17. 1861.

My dear Sir: Gen. Rousseau, introduces to me Charles E. Anderson, whom he wishes to have appointed a Paymaster in the Navy. As I have no doubt of his fitness for the place, and as the appointment would be a Kentucky appointment, I think it ought to be made so soon as it consistently can. Yours truly A. LINCOLN.
