VALUABLE PAPERs.-A Washington letter
in the N. Y. Journal Of Commerce says: 7"''
Under the late act of Congress the Jeffer:
son and Madison papers have been offered 10 the
Secretary of State, and they are 10 be publish
ed by the government. The Jefferson papers
are volumnous. Besides territorial and politi:;
cal ditquisitions and correspondence, they I'm.
brace treatise on moral and religious topics;
and particularly, a comment on the life and
character ofSt. Paul -: i9'cies foe'7f+4
Mr.. Jefferson was perhaps more careful Of
papers than any man that ever lived, except the
late John @. Adams. Mr.. Jefferson kept
copies ofevery paper that be ever wrote even
on the most ,riflng subject. He invented a
copying press and hod several made in France.
One that he much used is nov extant, and the
hands ola gentleman in Richmond. Equally
careful he was in preserving every paper that
he ever received His papers and those Of Mr.
Madison are in admirable order. HafE ii~s
The Madison papers lately purchased and
soon TO he published, are by far the most valu;
able of any which the government hayeBet OBJ.
tained or can obtain. They are replete with
valuable information concerning the origin
and principles OF our government, and viii show
if indeed any further evidence is wantiagof
the act-tbat to Mr.. Madison we are chiefly
indebted for the adoption Of our happy frame of
government. .,@s 81 .!cf' ma
