3149. FRANCE, Influence of.—

This
summer is of immense importance to the
future condition of mankind all over the
earth, and not a little so to ours. For though
its issue should not be marked by any direct
change in our Constitution, it will influence
the tone and principles of its administration
so as to lead it to something very different
in the one event from what it would be in
the other.—
To H. Innes. Ford ed., vi, 266.
(Pa., May. 1793)
