Letter, 1802 January 2.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122578410

Letter to an unknown addressee giving a very uncomplimentary description of Dr. Samuel L. Mitchell. Mitchell was a representative and later U.S. Senator from New York State. North writes: "I think you are right not to fill your head with politics. It's a trade few men get an honest living by. You and I would starve by it. Come home and raise cabbages and let Dr. Mitchell and his campatriots raise, or if it please God (I think Mr. Jefferson says 'please God')sink, the credit of the nation."
