No. 122 served purposely to advise a Bill of Sixteen hundred Dollars drawn for Contingent Expences. I have now the honour to advise that His Imperial Majesty has again removed his Court to Morocco. From thence he has made an excursion as far to the Southward as Tarzidaunt, merely to gratify curiosity, without any Political object in view; as certainly there is not a shadow of prospect of the...

128To James Madison from James Simpson, 24 August 1807 (Madison Papers)
