TIE Iisnisiar Ambassador.

AS many reports have been current
respecting the Tunisian Ambassadors
declining to return in the brig Franklin,
now In this port, it may not be amiss
to state the facts.
The brig Franklin is designed as a
compliment to the Bey Of Tunis, and
has been principally freighted with pre-
sents for him. On her arrival here.
the Ambassador went or board, exam
med her Accommodations, and expressed
no dissatisfaction, until he learnt from
some quarter, that the same brig had
once been a prize in Tunis. He i'm
diateIy said in positive terms, that he
should not goin her, as present to his
master, for he would not accept ofaves-
sci of her description, as gift.
This is the true reason of his refusal,
