Colonel - 
I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your communication of yesterday - cautioning me against the use of telegraph upon important business. - 

The expense, of the telegram calling forth this caution, was borne by Mr. Nightingale in whose behalf it was sent. - I trust no injudicious use has been made of the telegraph aside from this

Very Respectfully
Your obt servant
