It is perhaps the first instance in the History of Nations of a King & his people uniting to extend the Rights of the latter in abridging the power and privileges of the Nobles. The Common tendency of Revolutions founded in a [sense] amongst the people of oppression from the Nobility has ever been to an implicit surrender of every thing unto the hands of the Sovereign to say nothing of ancient Precedents, the modern, nay recent, Revolution in Denmark & Sweden terminated thus: there is in France a spirit never before known in the old world; my pride suggests that it was imbibed from America, and I am compleatly [sic] gratified in being that a Son of America did in the extremity of confusion, 'Mount the Whirlwind & direct the Storm.'

Speaking about the last session of Congress, he writes, The indian war, and the failure of the last expedition combined with a partial aversion to the government excited much ill humor during the last session. It was thought proper by a party, to levell some shafts at me....Parties will arise in free governments - and party prejudice is proverbally blind. Asks about the general Machine in Virginia and comments on prosperity in Pennsylvania. Discusses the New York governor's election, [John] Jay it would seem had a majority of votes - but [George] Clinton is the governor ...the essence of republicanism is done away and if a man can perpetuate himself to office by a minority. Also comments he has heard that some one in Virginia wants Clinton to run for Vice President against John Adams and wants to know if this is true.

Writes, Your suggestion as to the advantages to be derived from a personal attendance at the metropolis, is constantly found in the experience of Mankind & I am satisfied that such a step would give me a better appearance of success than I can otherwise have, but [were] this situation were it to continue for any length of time, would be painful to me, and no judgment can be [favored] when the arrangements of the Government will bring forward its permanent appointments. Is presently engaged in public business, but will travel to New York in early summer if he finishes the business by then. Writes, I shall adopt your advice in making a communication of my wishes to the President as soon as I am informed that he has accepted his appointment. This is a step that I should feel much difficulty in taking, but for the consideration that it will be perhaps, the only proper mode of tendency over services to the public. Adds a postscript regarding a new appointment that was made prior to his announcing his attention to seek a position.
