We have very seldom an opportunity of hearing from you; and still more seldom that of writing you by a direct opportunity. An indirect one presents itself, and I cannot let it pass, were it barely for the pleasure of writing you that we are well, and enjoy in profound tranquility the beauties of the Season. The Peace and Alliance between France and Holland; the violent insurrection against the...

We do ourselves the honour to inclose you a copy of an application made to the Circuit Court of the United States, for this District by Oliver Hartshorn Deputy Sheriff and under keeper of the gaol in Boston in order that you may be pleased if you think proper to lay the same before the Congress of the United States.

Your preference of the former for the appropriation of the balance which remain in your hands, is accordant with my ideas; and...
The Grand Inquest for the City of Philadelphia, with the highest deference and respect, present. That the general regret and indignation, excited by the circumstances of the late Insurrection, being succeeded by sentiments of pride and satisfaction, naturally impressed by the wise, humane, and effectual manner, in which the violated authority of the laws has been vindicated and restored, the...

If you have no occasion for the bill, perhaps you would wish to have it sold—If so, be pleased to inform me, & I shall probably have an opportunity of disposing of it in the...
After an unqualified acceptance of the Office of Commissioner of the Federal City, and a lapse of time at an important season for business, it would be uncandid not to say that I feel pain at your hesitating now, to enter upon the duties of that office. I had not heard before the receipt of your letter, that you had resumed the practice of the law; nor did I suppose that you could, with your...
Will you allow me the liberty of introducing to your civilities Mr. De Liancourt and the Gentleman who accompanies him, Mr. Guillemand, a young Englishman who is mentioned to me as a man of sense information and worth. I take it for granted you made Mr. De Liancourt’s acquaintance at Philadelphia and that you know his character. Your politeness and hospitality are destined to be taxed. I will...
