Extract of a letter from an .qfficer attached
to the English embassy to Persia.
. " TEHRASI, si May 22, 1810.'
"silnct-my last ( mentioned that We had
commctieed our journey towards the capital
'by easysisiStages. 'We arrivcdctat Shcraz on
"the 'ZOthssDesicember, and on the road the
highest honbrs were paid to the representa
tive of our gracious sovereign. Governors
of provinces came out to meet and welcome
us, dismounting' from theirct horses, as a
"markes respect on our' near approach.
_** 'We paid two visits to the prince of She
raz and had harelysstimc to view the tombs
of chesspoeu Sadoc and Hzfiz, which are in
good preservatinn. The Country seats in
the environs of siSheraz are n0t fine houses
with extensive pleasure ground, but small
gardens with summer houses,some of-which
and especially those of the Europeans, are
very pretty. Mr. Morier took skctches of
the whole, which you will therefore proba
biy'see. A letter from the seat of govern
ment in lndia nearly put a stop to our hi
therto successful enterprize. Sir Harsord
taking all respunsibility (m himself, did not
compiy with the wishes of the government
for his return to lndia. but on the lLth of
January recommenced his journey. *
" On account of' the report Of gen. Blal
csioim coming up the Gulph, the Persians,
suspicious of our drsigns, wished to detain
us at Ispahan to see the eVent; sor sexeral
days we Were agitated between hope and
lear; Sir H. surmounted this difficult)! as
well as the former, and on the 7th, we a
gain moved, and arrived at the 'l'eht'un on
the 14xh; the distance we computed to be
about 250 miles ; this for easrem travelling,
where you have no post-chaises or mail
coachcs at command, is extremely fast—
The former embassies took fit'e mouths to
go over the same ground which we per
formedin less th in two. We should have
ar rived a day sooher , and it was so artzmg
ed out of complitnent to the English mis
sion, that gen. Gardanne, with the whole
of his train who had been detained for that
purpose, were to have gone out of one gate
of the city in disgtace, while we entered in
triumph at the other; hut tt'atzeliing in a
most boisterous and dark nisi'h , our party,
by some accident, separated and lost the
road. ct
" On the I'ct'th, contrary to the Petfsian
cuswms, as their mnhorrum, or mourning,
had commenccd, We [aid Otir fiist tisit to

] was ready with the troop to sainte , 55 1 H. si
then mum. ted. On artiving at the palace,
sir H. again bore the lette. , and Mr. Mu
rier theb ptesents. The Petsian inlantiy,
drilied by the French, Were diawn up toct
receive us; they appeared to be very im- ;
perfect in theit CXercicte. The king si ,cn ac- ss
count of the mourning, did nor l'tCt-ch us :
in the public hail of audience, we passed si
close by it, it ttas not so grand as the old ]
palacei ibesore mentioned, built by Shahss
Abbas , in the private court a great many
Persian khans or noblcmen were ranged a
long the wall , we made several obeisances
belure we entered the npartments, ..ndtook
oﬀ our siip; )CsS at some distance from the
door , this was probably becattse they tear
ed we might hchave like: the French, who ]
never took oﬀ their home in any houses of]
the Persians, which oﬀended them very!
much. The king, on our cntr), welcomed 1
u5* , when sir H. (h aving dtliveitd the ]et-j
ter, and Mr. Morier the presents, to the
prime minister [or the king) made a shorti

gainst the insatiabie amhition ofthe Frehch
emperor, and the atrocities he had recently
committed.
" Since our arrival the soundry sor can

manner, the government will have great dis
ficultyZin finding a person so capable of so!

indeed he has so perfect a knowledge ofthe
customs, manners, and language of the
country, and has so completely the consi

Objection would be made on their side to his

" The King, aster reviewing his own
troops the other day (when they performed
ashamsifight, in which one man and two
horses were killed, from the disciplined
Soldiers having loaded their muskets with
ball instead of blzmk cartidge) looktctd at my
troop, and was much pleased with their per

former, the duties are included in thcssprice
....here they are not. The foreign trade at
Amoy is carried on under the .rose, & con
sc—quently subject to every arbitrary imposi

had traded here for many years, and had
likewise the assistance of act Chincse, who
shared with him in the voyage, met with
difficulties, what maynot a stranger eXpecr,
and particularly an impatient, impetuous
cottntrymanct of yours or mine ? The Spa
nish captain was 14- days in the Day before
he could scttle the preliminaries, and then
he was permitted to enter the harbor, and si
obliged to landhis guns and sails. 'I disco
vered the jealousy of the Chinese by the
questiOns they put to me about our guns
and seapoys—and how come so large a
ship to-have a cargo to so small amounc ?si-—

c0nsidered we -came with other v-iews than
those of tradi'hg: ..Every thing therefore
