Th: Jefferson, with his compliments to mr Wagner returns him Forman’s & Chancellor Livingston’s letters. the moment the gentleman returns who went express to the Secretary of state, the ultimate dispatches for Chancellor Livingston may go off. there seems to be an enquiry in his letter, as to the person to whom he is to address himself in pecuniary matters, which it is important to answer, &...
