Yes. There was one letter from Karl Marx, written on behalf of the International Workingmen's Association, the Central Council, to Abraham Lincoln. It was dated shortly after Lincoln had been reelected as President of the US, in late November of 1864.

The basis and point of the letter was to congratulate Lincoln for ending slavery by sanctioning the Southern States who attempted to secede from the Union, attributing the abolition of Slavery, as a main motive.

There was a reply sent to Marx and the International Workingmen's Association, by Charles Adams, the then US Ambassador to Great Britain, on behalf of President Lincoln. The reason the reply was sent from the US Ambassador to the UK, was likely due to: 1.) at the time the letter was written to Lincoln, Marx was living in London and 2.) the International Workingmen's Association was also headquartered in London, England.

Both Marx's letter and the Ambassador's letter of reply, were re-printed in Full-content in the The Bee-Hive-Newspaper --- an English weekly published by the trade unions in London between 1861 and 1876.
