position could controul it. Frciach cloths, French
silks, French laces, French , cambrics, French
hoops, nod French fetes warp worn at Court, uut
merely without shame, but with feelings of pride.

snuff-boxes, French buttons and buckles, were
every Ming in the estimation of the bucks and
bloods of the day :—and even of the no small por.
tion ef the more sedate part of the public; nay,
so far was this degrading custom popular, that the

of his most Ingenious contrivance;, that they might
be smuggled into England with. tlsc reputation ut
French workmanship attarlar4:to them. It was
the KING who checked this rage at Court, b)
observing to the Earl of Canusur,; that he should
be happy to see him S Court, but not his
French suit. Our tio!iigiy, toak the hint, and
presently Briiiih ingenuity triumphed.
