To the House of Representatives: April 5, 1862

In compliance with the resolution of the House of Representatives of yesterday, requesting any information which may have been received at the Department of State showing the system of revenue and finance now existing in any foreign country, I transmit a copy of a recent despatch from Mr. Pike, the United States Minister at the Hague. This is understood to be the only information on the subject of the resolution, recently received, which has not been made public. [ABRAHAM LINCOLN]
