I am delighted to think there is any sort of
chance for your being one of the elect. You
did your order a I am sitting cross-legged
as our old women say, (I suppose they mean
making the sign of the cross with their legs)
for good luck to you. You do your reverend
order more honour than I should be could
have conceived them to be deserving of, by supposing
it possible they could look upon you
as a man more any ways capable of answering their purpose.
As to your friends of the Fears, I am at a
loss to conceive on what data your hopes
or your fears, or if you please your non-hopes
and your non-fears can be founded. The
intermediate assembly of Electors throws over
the business such a cloud as to my optics
seems destined to be impenetrable. This is one
reason why my new Jerusalem would
not admitt of any such thing: for unnecessary
complication is a nursery of fraud and intrigue
and useless trouble and every thing that is bad
as I am crying out at every page.
