Your letter by last nights post is come to hand, but not that relative to the Election in the Southern district. If there is a majority of 300 in our favor in the Southern district, indeed if the votes there are ballanced, we have every reason to conclude that we shall be victors. We have Accounts here that at the poles in some parts of Westchester and Orange the tickets for Governor Lieut...

A few days after the receipt of your favor covering letters for the Supervizor of Vermont and Mr Jacob Cuyler I wrote you and my Eliza, but as I have not had a line from you since I fear my letters have not come to hand.

Your favor of the 24th instant I received yesterday. I shall embrace the first moment which offers and in which I can prudently be absent from hence to pay you a visit. The bank Mania has somewhat subsided but as in the first paroxism the leaders induced many to subscribe a petition to the legislature for an incorporation, the pride of some and the interested views of others will not permit...

Both your letters detailing the conversation held with Mr Willet have been duly received, the contents communicated to a few friends, as I found it unnecessary to extend It, Mr. Willets statement having made no impression with our friends who believed It a Misrepresentation. Mr Van Schaack who was most alarmed at It and who mentioned It to me, was satisfied by my declaration that Willet must...
