abstract
{"value"=>"Paris is more turbulent than it was under Napoleon; the people appear dissatisfied and morose rather than gay; Americans used to be sovereign, but they are now eclipsed by the crowds of English and others; he does not find the same kind of men that they used to know here, the Maclures, Mercers, Carters, Cabells; laments American indifference to art; has set up the canvas for his large national picture, and works also on two views of Niagara; needs a pupil; has written asking [James H.?] Shegogue to join him."}
