I In the first moment i
it has been in my power, the receipt of !
your joint letter ot January 2§th, with ■
the address of the two branches of the
legislature of Massachusetts, express- t
ing their approbation of the pro
ceedings of our government. ? I
This declaration cannot full to give I
particular and general satisfaction to i
our fellow-citizens, and to produce \
w hob som<- effects at home and ct broad, j
The.remarkable union of sentiment,
which pervaded neatly Mte whole of J
the states rtrd terri or«*s Composing
our nation, was such, indeed, as to in
spire a just confidence, in the course I
we had to pursue; yet something was
sensibly wanting to fill up the measure ,
of our happiness, while a member so '
important, so esteemed as Massachu- j
settsj had not yet declared its partici
pation iv the common sentiment : th.it
it is now done, will be a subject of mu
tual congratulation. lam sensible that
the terms In Which you have been pleas
ed to make this communication are not j
merely those of official duty, i feel
how much I am indebted to the kind
and friendly disposition they manifest,
and I cherish them as proofs of an es •
term highly valued.
Permit in*,through you, to return to
the two branches of the Legislature the
enclosed answer, and accept the assur*
aricesof my ejtteett. >nd high considera
tion.
TH : JEFFERSON.
To THE TWO BRANCHES OF THE LE
GISLATURE or Massachusetts.
It is with sincere pleasure that I re
ceive from the two branches of the Le-
I ;islature of Massachusetts an address
expressive of their satisfaction with the
administration of our government.
The approbation of my constituents is
truly the most valued reward fir any
services it has fallen to my lot
to render them, their confidence and
-in the greatest consolation ot
r.K lite. The measures which you have
been pleased particularly to note. I
have believed to have bern for the est
interest of our country : but, far from
assuming their merit to myself, they i e
long, first, to a wise aud patriotic le
gislature, which has given them the
form and sanction of laws ; and, next,
to my faithful and able fellow laborers
in the executive administration.
The progression of sentiment in the
great body of cur fellow-citizens of
| Massachusetts, and the increasing sup
j port of their opinion, 1 have seen with I
satisfaction ; and was ever confident I j
should see ; persuaded that anenlight- j
ened people, whenever they should ;
view impartially the course we have j
pursued, could never wish that our j
measures had been reversed: could
never desire that the expenses of the j
government should have be*m increas
ed, taxts multiplied, debt accumulated,
wars undertaken, and the tomahawk
and the scalping knite left in the hands
of our neighnours, rather than the hoe
and the plough.
In whatever tended to strengthen the
republican features of our constitution,
we could not fail to expect from Mas
sachusetts, the cradle of our revolution
ary principles, an ultimate concur- '
rence : and, cultivating the peace of
nations;, with justice and prudence, we
! yet were always confident that when- .
' ever our rights would be to be viudi. j
rated, against the aggressions of fo
reign foes, or the machinations of in
| ternal conspirators, the people of Mas- !
■ sachusftts, so prominent in the milita
|ry achievements which placed our
! country in possession of the right of self
government, would never be found
wanting in their duty tothecalls of their
country, or the requisitions of their go- '
vernment,
Dining the term, which yet remains,
jof my continuance in the. station assign
ed me, your confidence shall not be dis
appointed, so far as faithful endeavers
lot your service can merit it.
1 feel with particular sensibility your :
kind expressions towards myatlf per- '•
tonall) ; and I pray that that Provi- '
dence, in whose hands are the nations ol
theiaith, may continue towards ours .
| his fosteiing care, and bestow on your- J
; a patent shall issue upon such refiurvey
as in other cases.

1,. The order of council stated in our
paper oi yesterday to have been issued
relative to the. trade of neutrals with
tin ports of the enemy* is a measure
which must n ect the full approbation
of every.British subject. Its effect will
be topi cc France, and the commercial
i-oiir-.tri-s under her mfho-nce, 111 a state
o£blockade, and tobring at once the
question toaoissuf, whether the enemy
can do without foreign trade. It is a
; measure of just, though dreadful re
1 talialion. against the enemy for the pi
\ ratical expedients to which tht-y have
I lately resorted against out commerc ;
I and there is every probability of its
speedily annihilating the little that re
mains of trade or mercantile spirit in
j France. Bonaparte, in issuing his de
I crce of blockade, hoped, no toubt, to
j commit England in hostilities with oeu-
I tral powers, by tempting her to repri
\ sals; but it would be an insult to neu
tral nations to suppose that they are not
c.ip.ible of discovering to whom tht 1
I blame attaches { indeed, the conduct oi
j Denmark already «urfiriently rvlnces
j that she forms a just opinion of the re
[ Utive merits of the case. The real
■ substance ol the order was yesterda

v .Noneutral vessel to be permitted
to trade From any port under the con
trol, or in the possession of the enemy.
