ALEXANDER HAMILTON, CAMILLUS, NUMBERS I AND II,

1795

The Camillus letters were recognized, even by Hamilton’s foes, to be an effective defense of a treaty that needed much defending. As Jefferson wrote to Madison: “Hamilton is really a colossus to the anti-republican party. Without numbers, he is a host within himself.… We have had only middling performances to oppose him. In truth, when he comes forward, there is nobody but yourself who can meet him.… For God’s sake take up your pen, and give a fundamental reply to … Camillus.”
