state；　to　re…agitate　the　public　mind。　　What　appointments　to　office

have　they　detailed　which　had　never　been　thought　of；　merely　to　found　a

text　for　their　calumniating　commentaries。　　However；　the　steady

character　of　our　countrymen　is　a　rock　to　which　we　may　safely　moor；

and　notwithstanding　the　efforts　of　the　papers　to　disseminate　early

discontents；　I　expect　that　a　just；　dispassionate　and　steady　conduct；

will　at　length　rally　to　a　proper　system　the　great　body　of　our

country。　　Unequivocal　in　principle；　reasonable　in　manner；　we　shall　be

able　I　hope　to　do　a　great　deal　of　good　to　the　cause　of　freedom　&

harmony。　　I　shall　be　happy　to　hear　from　you　often；　to　know　your　own

sentiments　&　those　of　others　on　the　course　of　things；　and　to　concur

with　you　in　efforts　for　the　common　good。　　Your　letters　through　the

post　will　now　come　safely。　　Present　my　best　respects　to　Mrs。　Gerry；　&

accept　yourself　assurances　of　my　constant　esteem　and　high

consideration。
