Several times since my return home, I have thought it wd be proper to write you on the subject of the Conversation that took place at your table as both business, & a certain reluctance to resume the subject, have prevented me from enacting this purpose.—Further reflexion has convinced me that justice to myself and to the cause of truth, imposes a duty on me, to vindicate the Olive Branch &...
I have duly recd & carefully read your favour of the 11th. ult. & confess I regret extremely the view you have taken of the situation of the Country, & the operation of the tariff Bill. It is not a manufacturing question. It is a national one—& all the complicated distress, which, with few exceptions, pervades the Country, arises from regarding it in the former light. Out of an absurd jealousy...
Your favour of the 29 th ult. I have duly rec d . It is now before me. The fifteen Dollars enclosed are duly carried to your credit. The Religious Olive Branch is not yet fairly begun. I was diverted from it by the shameful attack on my Country in that horror-inspiring attack on my Country contained in novel Mandeville, which led me to undertake Vindiciæ Hibernicæ , which I shall publish in...
By this day’s mail, I take the liberty of sending you a pamphlet on the policy that prevails in our intercourse with foreign nations —a policy which renders us hewers of wood and drawers of water to the manufacturing nations of Europe. We give the labour of 30, 40, or 50 farmers & or planters for that of one cotton manufacturer. The low price of the produce of the earth, & the glutted markets,...
I take the liberty to enclose three copies of the first Number of a Set of papers, the design of which, I presume, you can scarcely fail to approve. Should you be able to favour me with any communications towards continuing the plan, I shall be thankful. MHi .
By this mail, I send you a number of copies of two essays on the protecting System, which I request you will be so good to hand to the Messenger of the Convention to be delivered to the members. I remain, Sir, very respectfully, Your obt hble Servt RC (DLC) . Docketed by JM, with this note: "The delivery disclosed the papers being tracked and likely to be viewed as of a party character."
I send you by this mail some of my recent lucubrations, of which I request your acceptance. I flatter myself into the hope that some of the facts & reasonings on them, will fully establish the soundness of the Hamiltonian System of policy, of which I have been the unceasing advocate for nine years. Until it is fully adopted by this Country, we shall never enjoy the high degree of prosperity...
I have recd & read with great pleausre Your very acceptable letter of the 29th ult. Next to the approbation of a man’s own conscience, that of the enlightened part of mankind, is the greatest reward a correct mind can desire. It has been always my object—”laudari laudatis viris.” And I therefore estimate at a high rate the commendation you are so good to bestow on my efforts to promote the...
By this mail I send you a copy of a recent pamphlet, which I beseech you by all your hopes of honour & reputation here, & of happiness hereafter, to read with attention—& should it convince you of the deleterious consequences of the miserable policy this Country pursues, that you will try to open the eyes of some of the influential members of Congress to the necessity of a radical change. Very...
By this Mail, I take the liberty of sending you some essays on the Protecting System, of which I request your acceptance. Their object, & that of some other of my pamphlets is to allay the fermentation that exists in South Carolina & Georgia, wh. is so assiduously excited and kept alive by misguided or wicked men Very respectfully, your obt. hble. Servt RC (DLC) . Docketed by JM.
