{"value"=>"Acknowledges letter of the 26th ult., which he has had difficulty in answering, as his correspondence is watched; Dr. Shippen is to enclose this in a letter of his own; after consideration he declines Lee's offer, as he does not think himself a good enough accountant; tories and whigs have coalesced against the power of wealth, high office, and the bank of the United States, which is directed by the vote of one man and a few minions; a scheme to start a rival bank has spread like wild-fire; Mr. D. having subscribed has given it such weight with the Assembly that Mr. M. will scarcely be able to prevent it; the plan of a new constitution is ill relished; mismanagement of the Wioming business."}
