is extremely peculiar. They are bound to pursue a different conduct to the different warring powers. To France they must give the preference by treaty ; to Holland they must assign the next rank of favor by treaty ; Great Britain stands upon the law of nations, pure and unqualified. Hence in this disparity of relations they will be often thrown into great perplexities. Nothing can lead them with safety and honor through the labyrinth but an adherence to sound principle, which is always uniform.... Upon principle there- fore restitution ought not, in my judgment, to be attempted." In June 1793 Randolph went on a little journey through Delaware and Maryland, consulting the leading men as to the feel- ing concerning the French Revolution and the President's proc- lamation ; all of which were favorably reported to Washington in a " private " letter of June 1 1, from Annapolis. The further journey supplied material for a more important '* private " letter, dated at Richmond 24 June 1793. The public excitement con- cerning the discussions of State amenability before the national courts, by Henry in Richmond and Randolph at Philadelphia, — the decisions, elsewhere considered, favoring English creditors, — will explain some of the allusions in this private report to Wash- ington, at whose desire the journey was undertaken.
