1787. and book, and will write by the next packet to him. Dorman is still in Virginia. Congress have done nothing for him in his affair. I am not sure that 9 States have been assembled of late. At present, it is doubtful whether there are seven. TO EDMUND PENDLETON. PHILADELPHIA, September 20th. 1787. DEAR SIR, The privilege of franking having ceased with the Convention, I have waited for this opportunity of inclosing you a copy of the proposed Constitution for the United States. I forbear to m...ake any observations on it, either on the side of its merits or its faults. The best judges of both will be those who can combine with a knowledge of the collective and per- manent interest of America a freedom from the bias resulting from a participation in the work. If the plan proposed be worthy of adoptjon, the degree of unanimity attained in the Convention is a circumstance as fortunate as the very respect- able dissent on the part of Virginia is a subject of regret. The double object of blending a proper stability and energy in the Government with the essential characters of the republican form, and of tracing a proper line of demarkation between the national and State authorities, was necessarily found to be as difficult as it was desirable, and to admit of an infinite diver- sity concerning the means among those who were unanimously agreed concerning the end.
