1824. Feb 19 J.B. to Col. Stanhope
If it has not yet been committed to the Press,
so far in this respect all is well. If it has
passed the Press, a sheet of correspondence should be
printed, and as extensively as may be, made to
accompany the work itself.
As to the constitutional code, what you carried
with you, with the addition of what you may
have since received, extends not beyond what
concerns the administrative Department, with
the addition of a chapter, though that a very long
one, belonging to the judiciary. Along with this,
will go, the isles of chapters and sections, covering
the judiciary, and what little remains to be
said of the sub-legislatures, considering how much
may be and is done in relation to that topic,
by simple reference, to what is done in the chapters
relative to the legislative & administrative
Departments. With these listed, not small is my
upset at not being able to send the matter
itself: I have been retarded partly by one indispensable
fiddle faddle or another, partly by the
necessity I found myself under of making an
excursion into the region of financial procedure;
so closely did I find the matter belonging to it, entangled
with that which belongs to the judicial establishment.
However, all of it is written, and
wants nothing but revisal and copying.
