Advice to Fayette
It is a bad practice and imprudent to mix with acts of the
House reasonings calculated to induce men to join
in the making passing of such acts: for people might
join with you in your acts who would not join with
you in your reasons: the same thing being approved
if spontaneous by different people for different reasons. But there never
be an objection to give the acts such expression
and such order as they may serve as reasons
for themselves to the employment of reason pinning of acts in such manner by the
expression given to them and the order in which they
are made to follow one another they carry
there own reason upon the face of them
Let success and not triumph be the object end
in view: triumph can ought to subsist
among fellow countrymen, can not subsist among friends,
it supposes enemies enmity and sharpens it. and creates them.
