I have a return from Thirty Nine Towns who return 73 members—we have Thirty nine members—They 34—last may—They had 46—we 27. I have This moment examined an additional list. There are many new names—but I can perceive, among those I know an Increase of Three or four in our favor. I have visited my friends in Hamp: Co. Ms. In that State I think we may calculate upon 7 members of Congress—have an even chance for the eighth—and one not desperate for the Ninth. I shall visit Boston shortly—on my return I will communicate Such Information as I shall acquire.

With great Esteem your friend
