As thou art so good and provident a brother I dare to say thou wilt
endeavour to furnish me with such kind of knowledge as may be subservient
to my the employment I am going to engage in and in
which I am most wanting. I dare to say Sir James has all
kind of works which can afford any assistance, therefore dont
plague yourself till I can give you an some better account
of what I think you could procure me.
Anderson yes it is probable that something very advantageous for as
both may be brought about. of this I will tell you more by the
packet I send by sea.
On Monday last I gave the in a letter for the Empress to her
principal Secretary which I dare to say he presented yesterday.
In a few days I may be able to guess of the event of it. It was
an offer on my part to put it into execution the improvement
I proposed in my paper of which you have a copy.
If she accepts the offer and grants me such terms as to make such
an employment desirible it may take place when as soon as a new
Minister is come here to take the political business out of my
hands. In the meantime I shall be able to settle the
conditions probably more advantageously than if I had not
been in such an employment.
I wonder I hear nothing about "Principles of Penal Jurisprudence"
My present situation viewed on all sides is interesting enough.
Be of good spirits. I ought to be notwithstanding my despondency
in my love affair. The coals may be blown up again now.
