141To Thomas Jefferson from Albert Gallatin, 21 August 1805 (Jefferson Papers)
I enclose three more applications for the office of collector of Gloucester vice Gibault deceased. You will perceive by Crowninshield’s letter that, notwithstanding his first recommendation in favor of Kittredge, he now seems to hesitate & wishes some delay in the appointment. This may be done without inconvenience as the deputy is by law authorized to act. I presume that Mr. C. is still in...

145To Thomas Jefferson from Albert Gallatin, 5 December 1804 (Jefferson Papers)
You were pleased to approve a proposition respecting the Marine Hospital at Charleston contained in the letter of the Collector of that port, dated 9th. June 1802, of which a copy is enclosed.

146To Thomas Jefferson from Albert Gallatin, 16 January 1809 (Jefferson Papers)
I do not perceive that any alteration is necessary in the enclosed. But I think that it would be extremely invidious not to extend it to all the Governors. Respectfully Your obedt. Sevt.

Is it proper to submit this letter to the Attorney general in order to examine whether prosecutions may be instituted under the Statute for actual opposition to the Marshal in the exercise of his legal functions? Or is it better not to notice the acts & to let the prosecutions for the riot take their course in the State courts? Respectfully submitted RC ( DLC : TJ Papers, 146:25373); undated,...
150To Thomas Jefferson from Albert Gallatin, 25 February 1804 (Jefferson Papers)
I could not obtain a copy of the revenue law for New Orleans and am informed that it was sent to you. I was obliged to close the instructions without it & may have omitted some important particulars.
