Sir.
I take the liberty of submitting to you
the skeleton of a proposed measure, the objects enlisted with as well as
subject matter of which are uesd not here be requested,, apparent
I submitt its in this its realisd state, unsupported without any
support by reasons from argument: because to you, for one
of the sort that might be unsure contrary</add> there might be twenty
<add>of use
thus, to you would be superfluous, and repullsive. You will scarce but upon a jurist I believe that has not received some consideration: whatsoever use might be degree of the sort of judgement that has grounded on it may have been the result of it.
On the term of utility useful efficacy or practicability, if I
were fortunately enough to learn, in relation to what
it appeared upon a first glance objectionable to you I would in any subsequent
communication on the subject confine myself to these
points. [Under both these trends after as on firstly close
accumulation of about 1 1/2 year, I must confess myself

the kind of : regarding the measures that
under your Administration have been taken with regard
to the principal point, the reduction of the National Debt,
as professed of a by far — much more rapid degree of efficacy, than
I have seen any where ascribed attributed to them: Possibly, I will venture to say,, + possibly these even you yourself may have yet some reason to ascribe refuse from it the to it: In this point of view there might possibly also be some use in your Customary a testing a view of this upon the prospect before it met the public eye. But this,
I spent days though however the principal subject: if the proposed planbut this principal one, is by
no means the only one.
To look deep fear and wider and steadily into requires more leisure time,
than, a man the on whose attention <add>directions attention</add> the present depends took turns
can will easily . To me mean <add>me</add>, at last has not been
wanting, however it be with other requisites.
A Map of even though drawn by an masterful
hand, may not be without its use, even to a the most skillful
eye: because for in a truth so wen the first attempt
conquers maps conquer efforts conquer the greatest difficulty: and correct views are
then suggested by erronous ones. to a correct view
