leaS ‘ ° c i„ r oci>l;ror,oii several occasions,
id his ardent gaze, she drew her veil
‘° a her face, and ibU be took for proof ot
tachmeut to himself. Young Bobbin
ifs frequently sent by Ins n.as.er to dtffer
houses of the gentry w.th patterns, and
none occasion he was sent, duly equip-
I with his bundle under Ins arm, and
■ j stick i his hand, by way of cane, to

‘ uaind little pleasantries and blandish
fsf .r which gentlemen of this class are
he folded up the goods, re
lax) them nicely under his arm, pu: forth
one foot, as if about to commence a quad
rilie.aud, raising his yard stick with the
nost captivating grace* pointed to a piciuie 1
cl’ a young lady in the loom, and admired
its beaury.° “ But ma am,’ he lisped, “it
j s bv no means so beautilul as your young.
BS t daughter; will you Ma’am, permit me
(o walkout with her of a Sunday, Ma’am ?
P is, you know the only leisure u.>y 1 have
Ma’am ! ’ The lady, who is a person ol
f.-unilv and fortune, was completely dumb
founded. She looked at he mun with as
tonislmient and expressed her surprise at
Inch an address. But Bobbin was not to
be put off, and still pleaded. The lady
treated it as altogether too absurd to be met
seriously, but dropped something as to the
disparity of situation in the adorer and the
adored. Bobbin assured her she was mista
ken ; lor though he was now only an ap
prentice yet w hen he was out ol his time
be should be a master-man —and then !! !
The lady relused to listen further, and Bob
bin at last took leave, bustled homeward,
yard stick and all, dreaming of love, laces,
and lilacs —of what he would ao—and
what he would not do, when he was mas
ter man. The next day he sent a billet
doux to his adored, and a letter to her
mother—the first containing vows of eter
nal, never ending; the latter sol.cuing leave
to walk out of a Sunday with her daughter.
But, the letters were sent back (the one to
his adored unopened) in an envelope from
the mother of the young lady, very laconi
cally informing him that if the whole affair
were not so superla.ively ridiculous, the
writer would have taken steps to chastise
his insolence ! Poor Bobbin was now in
a mighty fluster ; lie skipped round and
over every counter in the shop—show
ed the insulting epistle, crunched iu his
convulsed fist, to every body. He called
a council of war, which was held after the
shop was shut up, the P-resident being seat
ed on three pieces of Irish stuff and a piece
cf gauze, when, after due discussion, it
was unanimously resolved that the letters
should be returned to the brother, giving
him to understand that there was no inso
lence in asking a be dy to w alk n a Sunday,
find if he thought there was. Bobbin was
ready lo . The letters were accord
ingly returned, and the next day, some *■.{
Bobbin s brother shopmen forged a letter
cirected to him, breaking vengeance and
’appointing the place of meeting at the
Race Stand, at six o’clock on alurday
morning last. On the receipt of tins let
ttr uo one can tell the agonies of poor
Bobbin’s mind ; by turns lie wept and piay
fc(h liged on by his shopmates, lie at
length resolved to meet his man, but he
“ould fust consult his mistress ; he did so.
He told her all his woes—how dearly he
l°ved his adored ; “ But ma’am,” said he

•'Badness, I won’t be killed, ! lam not

pistols from his hand, swearing he would
not fight—he could not fight—he was not
fit to fight or die. He was then informed
that if he did not stand up and fight, his
antagonist swore he would come and shoot
him dead through the heart. Bobbin wept,

Notions of the Americans, picked up
bp a travelling Bachelor. — File ‘travel
ling Bachelor” purports to be an European,
and as such, through the civility of an A
mericuu friend, to make a visit to John
Joy. The description of the abode, man
ner of living, and public career of inis em
inent man is man.festly given— cvn amore.
It is in the course of it that occurs the
passage we here extract—and which we
have every reason to suppose entirely au
thentic — N. Y. Amer.
During the American war, an alliance
was formed between France and the new
power of the United States. One ol the
customary couuitions of this treaty was a
stipulation that peace should not be made
by either parry without the consent of
both. When England bad become suffi
ciently prepared by her reverses to listen to
amicable propositions, the American go
vernment ordered their minister in Spain
(Mr. Jay,) and their minister in Holland
(Mr. Adams, ) to proceed to Paris, and by
uniting themselves to the minister in
F ranee (D r. Franklin,) to form a com
mission auilnuized to manage the expec
ted neg< t ation on the pari of the nevv
republic. The latter of these gentle
men had long been accredited near the
court of Versailles, where by a hap
py union of great simplicity of man
ners, wisdom, and wit, he had become an
object of singular admiration and affection.
But the Ainci icaus say, that Franklin was
a much better philosopher than politician.
Be ibis as it might, the story adds, that
F.ance, now the drama was about to dose,
began lo cast about her for the profits of
the representation. The Count de Ver--
genues bad early succeeded in persuading
Dr. Frankiin, that as England could not,
*>r would not, formally acknowledge the
independence of America, bis better course
would be to accept a truce, for twenty:
years, at the end of which period his coun- 1
tiy would be sufficiently strong to take
what she needed for herself. The philo
sopher is said to have acquiesced in this o
pinioii and began to stir his mighty reason
iu maturing the terms of this remarkable
truce. In this state of mind he was found
by Mr. Jay, on his arrival from Madrid.—
The latter was not slow to perceive the
effects of such a course, nor to detect the
secret source whence the insidious counsel
flowed. llis eyes had not been dazzled
by tlie? splendour of a luxurious court, nor
bis ears soothed by the flattery of a pol
ished nation. For a long time be bad been
coii’ented to dwell in obscurity in Spain,
sacrificing every thing but his country’s in
terest to his manliness and directness of
character. He lied steadily declined an j
interview with the king of the latter coun- ;
try, because lie could not be received o
penly as an accredited mndster. In short,
lie had too long patiently submitted to
mortifications and retirement, rather than
compromise the character of his nation to
see the substance at which lie aimed so
easdy converted to a shadow
Mr. Jay denounced the policy of the
Count de Vergennes, and declared that
the unqualified independence of his coun
try must be a sine qua non in any treaty
which bore his name. * H r. Adams soon
joined the negociation, and took his side of
independence. Franklin who was at heart a
true patriot, suffered the film to be drawn
from his eyes, and perfect union soon pre
sided in tltcir councils, But England had.
not [been unapprized of this disposition of
America to receive a truce. Her commis
sioner, Mr. Oswald,appeared with instruc
tions to go oo further. In this dilemma a
step is ascribed.to Mr. lay that I believe
is as remarkable for its boldness as for its
good sense. He is said to have written,
with his own hand, to the English Secre
tary of State pointing out the bad conse
quences to England herself, if she adhered
to her present policy By keeping the
truce suspended over America, she forced
that country to lean on France forsuppoit;
whereas, by admitting her, at once, into j
the rank of nations, England would obtain |
a valuable customer, and might also secure
a natural friend. Thus instructed in a bet
ter policy, the nglish minister saw his
error and the same courier who conveyed
the letter of Mr. Jay returned with in
structions to Mr. Oswald to acknowledge!
the independence of the United States.—
Finding themselves embarrassed by the
evasions of Count de Vergennes, believing
they were betrayed, in the spirit of their
alliance at least, and knowing France
could not find the smallest difficulty iu set
tling her own affairs without their agency,
the American commsssioners proceeded to
sign a treaty of peace, in the very teeth of
their instructions, without the knowledge
of the French ministei. When the Jatier
found that his policy had nut succeeded,
he wrote a sharp note of remonstrance,
which Dr F rankiin laid before his brother
commissioners. It was much easier to
perform a gieat act like the one in which
they had been engaged, than to word a
proper reply to this communication There
was but one ground on which their appar
ent want of faith could be justified, and to
give that to the Count de Vergenues, might
probably be much more true than polite
After a good deal of hesitation, they dis
covered that the letter bore the simple su
perser.ption ol Dr. Franklin, and the col
leagues of the latter imposed on him the
duty of answering a note, which they
gravely insisted was not officially addressed
to the commissioners How well the
philosopher acquitted himself of this deli
cate affair, my information does not say;
but though a vote of censure on the com
; missioners was proposed in Congress, their
conduct was thought, under the circum
stances so very justifiable that it was nev
er passed. Now, I repeat, for all this I
cannot name my authority, since living
men are parties to the transaction, but I
will again say, that it is so respectable,
that I believe the anecdote to be substan
tially correct.

COTTON MARKETS.
Liverpool, July 3, 1828.
•The sales of the week are 6500 bags; in prices
there is no alteration; the import is 4000 bags.
July 4.
There has beeE more demand for Cotton, espe
cially first two days of this week, than during the
preceding fortnight; still the business actually
done is only to a moderate extent.
Buyers seem disposed to forego purchasing
without a and at present holders are
willing to wait a little rather than make it.
W e seo no change in the quotations.
July 7.
On Saturday and to-day there has been rath**
more animation in our Cotton market than during
the early part of last week; tire sales for the two
days amount to upwards of 3500 bags, aT fortnei
prices.
July 15.
The reduced state of the stocks of Cotton held
by dealers and spinners, together with the late de
cline in price in this market, led them to operate
freely the last week. Speculators also purchased
about 3000 bags of American Cotton, and expor
i tors about 1200 bags.
Prices are advanced an 1-8 per lb. in the middle
and lower qualities of Upland, Orleans, and Alaba
ma cottons, and the better sorts are more saleable
at the full prices of the previous week. The to
tal sales from the sth to the 11th inst. inclusive,
are computed at 20410 bags, viz: 300 Sea Island
at 10 1-2 a 15; 50 Stained do. 7 a 10 1-2; 9G70 Up
lands; 9638 at 6 a 7 1-8, 20 at 7 1-4, and 12 at 7

i 370 Egyptian 7 3-8 a 9; 300 Surat and Bengal 4
Holders continue to meet the demand freely,
but contend for the late advance. The sales on
Saturday the 12th inst. and yesterday were esti
mated at 2500 bags each day. The import
last vveek was 16,210 bags.
Rice. —4s casks of middling fair to good quality,
have been sold at 17s a 18s 3d per cwt.

6d per lb, for export.
July 16.
The sales of Cotton yesterday were estimated
at 8000 bags, a part to speculators. In price
there w'as no change. There was more business
doing in the Manchester market last week, in I
Yarns, but at low prices, and yesterday there was ]
more business doing than for some weeks past, in .
Y arns, Cotton, and Goods, w hich has given our .
market a firm appearance this morning
At the public sale of Montreal Pot Ashes, yes
