      [Our?] political hemisphere, as you know,
has & is much agitated on the Presidential
question & I think it is now fast settling
in favour of Mr. Adams, respecting whom
claims to [???] his name should have
been a question & now especially when
his opponent is such a man as [???]
[???] him to his Vote, whom the
American nation will never give
such a station unless a President
[???] [???] is fixed as a [nation?].
      Wishing you all prosperity
in your undertakings in Europe
& safe return to your native
Land (a luxury [???] best to
him who is absent), I remain,
                        Dear sir,

                              most respectfully
                                    your most humble servant ~

                              Rob[er]t Donaldson

New York, 11th August 1828 ~
