6739. POLITICS, A maxim in.—
The
maxim of your letter “slow and sure” is not
less a good one in agriculture than in politics.
I sincerely wish it may extricate us
from the event of a war, if this can be done
saving our faith and our rights.—
To President Washington. Washington ed. iv, 106.
Ford ed., vi, 510.
(M.
May. 1794)
