Description
Sends officially Gazettes and Journals; as a friend he sends his best wishes for health and happiness, and as an American, anxious lest the public cause be endangered by the vile currency, earnest entreaties to persist in his services to his country in spite of official neglect in matters relating to his Embassy; the great work of recruiting and supplying the army has prevented a completion of other business; the war will surely last another year; Holland may not treat of alliance, but will not prevent the borrowing of money from individuals; Spain wants all the east side of the Mississippi which must be refused, though her other demands have been complied with.
