The Persian Ambassador, who now reads our lx.
page with fluency, and who daily peruses as
newspapers with great interest, has expressed gtet
surprise and anger on reading, in a Morning Pape,
a long paragraph, entitled " Tour of his Excellent
the Persian Ambassador, in England and Fruit
Ayiewed, from a French Journal." The whole;
this is a fabrication : a selection from the Trivial
of Mirza Abu Taiib Khan, an I ndian, of Persian s•
traction, who n....ver resided in Persia, and whom
yelled in Europe some 20 years ago. The ex
from the pretended Journal express sentient
which his Excellency totally disavows, and wit
are both illiberal, and tending to give an oafs
able impression in the minds of those who have
dcscrimination enough to detect the fallacy.
Ambassador keeps a Journal. hut no part has
been translated or published in any Europese
Page"
