Notes the receipt of the printed addition to Coxe's memoir on cotton and agrees with his ideas. Discusses the nation's agricultural prospects for cotton, grain, and tobacco, in regard to rival markets ("Britain seems intent on supplanting our cotton staple in her market") and political conditions in Europe. Indicates that he will ask Thomas Jefferson to review Coxe's article.
