702To Thomas Jefferson from Albert Gallatin, 3 August 1808 (Jefferson Papers)
Finding that several of the collectors considered that provided applications to send vessels in ballast had been made & permissions had been granted in time, the vessels might delay their departure as much as they pleased; a construction which altogether defeated the object intended by the restriction in point of time & by the decision not to permit any distant voyages; I wrote a circular to...
703To Thomas Jefferson from Albert Gallatin, 3 December 1805 (Jefferson Papers)
Spanish Message End of first paragraph —Considering the last proposition made by Spain on that subject, it seems to me that instead of saying “unless we would relinquish all claims” &c, it would be more correct to say “unless we would assent to modifications (or alterations in the instrument) affecting our claims” &c or words to that effect. Beginning of second page “to avoid all explanation &...
704To Thomas Jefferson from Albert Gallatin, 2 July 1804 (Jefferson Papers)
So far as relates to the business of the office, I might complete & arrange every thing within a week so as to be able to leave the city: if I could otherways be spared, your permission to go would be agreeable, on account of the situation of my family , and because Mrs. Gallatin’s situation will compel me to return pretty early in September. As I will have to encounter that month here, I wish...
705To Thomas Jefferson from Albert Gallatin, 23 January 1807 (Jefferson Papers)
The cutter was lost: another is building; & as has been usual in similar cases, the master alone has been kept in pay to superintend the building. If, considering that the mates lost all their effects on board the cutter, the President thinks proper that their pay should not be discontinued during that period, there is nothing illegal in it; and orders may be given to the collector...

707To Thomas Jefferson from Albert Gallatin, [14 October 1802] (Jefferson Papers)
The difficulties attending the New Orleans trade & suggested in the enclosed letters, cannot certainly be obviated without a law, nor probably without a special convention on that subject. By the British navigation acts, american produce cannot be imported into Great Britain from a port not of the United States except in British vessels. Mississipi cotton grown within the United States cannot,...

709To James Madison from Albert Gallatin, 11 September 1809 (Madison Papers)
I did not write till I could inform you where I was going; as otherwise I had nothing to communicate. The lameness of my horses & the late season have induced me to give up my western excursion, instead of which I will treat Mrs. Gallatin with a short visit to her mother in New York. We will be there about the 21st instt., remain a week and return so as to be here about 2d or 3d Octer. I do...

The collector of Barnstable & his son who acts as deputy have faithfully used their best endeavours to carry the laws into effect; and according to what appears to be a part of the system adopted in Massachussets, are harrassed by private suits. All the cases—3 in number—are perfectly clear; detentions, arising from the opinion of the collector that the intention was to evade the law, and on...
