From Thomas Jefferson to United States Congress, 17 January 1806

To the Senate &

Jan. 17. 1806

House of Representatives of the US.

The inclosed letter from the Minister Plenipotentiary of the US. at the court of London, contains interesting information on the subjects of my other message of this date. it is sent separately & confidentially, because it’s publication may discourage frank communications between our ministers generally, & the governments with which they reside, & especially between the same ministers.

Th: Jefferson
