7389. REPUBLICANS, Patronage and.—[continued].

That I have denounced
republicans by the epithet of Jacobins, and
declared I would appoint none but those
called moderates of both parties, and that I
have avowed or entertain any predilection for
those called the third party, or “Quids”, is
in every tittle of it false.—
To William Duane. Washington ed. iv, 592. Ford ed., viii, 433.
(W. 1806)
