Mr. Coxe has the honor to inform Mr. Jefferson that Dutch Bills remain difficult to procure, and that English Bills can be obtained at 162½ ⅌Ct. being a Discount of £4.3.4 Curry. upon the £100 Stg. Mr. Coxe continues to think it extremely hazardous to remit by bills on Holland. Indeed he takes the liberty to say he would by no means risque them. Mr. Jefferson will be able to procure such part...
Mr. Coxe has the honor to inclose to Mr. Jefferson one of the most striking productions he has ever read. The Author fled from the place in which it was written and has become an inhabitant of the U.S. Mr. Coxe has promised to return it carefully.

Mr. C. will read the letter with care and have the honor to return it in person to...

Presuming upon the care of the postmaster I did not look at the Superscription of the letter with much attention, and opened it as if to the Secretary of the Treasury. On reaching the 3d. or 4th. line, which has relation to a subject unconnected with the business of this department I was led...
The idea I lately took the liberty to suggest may have appeared visionary and strange, but on much reflexion I am convinced that it is the interest of the United States that such a measure should be adopted either by the Government, or by the mercantile interest varying the form of course so as to render it proper for them. I beg leave to submit the reasons. We are now dependent upon one...
Mr. Coxe has the honor to inform Mr. Jefferson, that no plat, or draught of the seven ranges is to be found in the Treasury, nor do any of the gentlemen remember to have seen one. It appears highly probable that such a paper accompanied the Report of the Board to Congress, and that it may be on the old files of the late Secy. of Congress (Mr. Thompson) or possibly in the War office, as the...
