From a view of your message , it seems to me that I ought neither to apply to the Commissers. for information, nor give any opinion on the propriety of suspending the sale of the lots; but that my report to the H. of R. should be confined to a short recapitulation of the acts now in force, & to an opinion on the question whether it will be most eligible, in case Congress shall suspend the sale...

From every information, it is not probable that any other person will offer, and it is very desirable that we should, by availing ourselves of his proposals, secure the work being done next summer. The only objection in the way is want of cession on the part of Virginia , but there is no doubt of its having been, or...
