I will be exceedingly obliged if you will excuse my asking one Letter from you to Some Gentleman in France, whether it be to Mr. Morris our Minister there, or some private Gentleman—I submit that to you. Doctor Rush at the Time He asked the one you have been so kind as to write , did not know that I certainly meant to visit France. The Agriculture of this Country as well as England I intend to...
It was under the idea that you meant to go to England only that I gave you a letter only to that country. I have now the honor to inclose you one for Mr. Morris and another for Mr. Brissot. The former is a letter of mere general introduction, because you will find Mr. Morris living in the country at some distance from Paris, and consequently not in the way of being much seen by you. The letter...
The Day I did myself the Honor to take my Leave of you in Philadelphia—I engaged to write to you—and I should have done so before now but the Fact is that so little can be said from hence that will give a true State of the politicks of Europe (owing to the extreem Torrent that has for some time past prevailed here on the Side of Royalty) that I have scarce thought it worth while to give you...
By the William Penn I wrote you a Letter and inclosed you a Number of News-Papers—to the Care of our Friend Doctor Rush—but as I suppose this Letter may reach You before that Ship arrives, I embrace the Oportunity to inform You that Valenciennes is now actually taken by the combined Armies. The Letter I then wrote to you expresses a Doubt of its being taken at all—it was written the Evening...
Since I have been in London I have written you two Letters—One by the Wm: Penn the other by the Way of New York. I hope this third will entitle Me to an Answer. I have mentioned to you the Rage that exists here for Emigration to our Country. I have by some Means or other, without any Steps taken on my own Part to procure it, become more known than I had any Right to expect in this Country—so...
Since my Arival in England as I promised so I have frequently written to You and given You such Information as I thought worthy of your Attention. I mentioned to you heretofore the Accident (a Fall Mrs: Edwards received from a Carriage) that prevented my going immediately to the Continent. We were also induced to stay ’till Fall in Consequence of a Determination Mrs: Pinckney had come to, to...
I have to acknolege the receipt of your two favors of July 30. and Aug. 16. and to thank you for the information they contained. We have now assembled a new Congress, being a fuller and more equal representation of the people, and likely I think to approach nearer to the sentiments of the people in the demonstration of their own. They have the advantage of a very full communication from the...
When I arrived in Octr: last at N. York from France I forwarded on a letter or two from Mr: Monroe to you—and I should have written to you then as I promised him—but I really intended before I setled myself, to have taken a Trip into your State, and to have had the Pleasure of seeing you at your own House. I left Paris the 7th. of August in the Midst of their Success and Glory as likewise the...
I was yesterday gratified with the reciept of your favor of [Dec.] 27. which gave me the first information of your return from Europe. On the 28th. of Oct. I recieved a letter of July 30. from Colo. Monroe but did not know thro what channel it came. I should be glad to see the Defence of his conduct which you possess, tho no paper of that title is necessary for me. He was appointed to an...
I have received from our Freind Doctor Rush the Letter you did me the favor to write of the 22nd: of Jany: last—my Name is Enoch Edwards, and that was directed to John Edwards—which was the Reason of its laying with him so long. I send you the Papers I mentioned from Mr: Monroe . If you would do me the Favor to take breakfast with Me on Wednesday Morning, at 9 or 10 oClock (or your own hour) I...
