The above drai was necessarily different in its

of the peculiar circumstances attached to the trans-
action We are perfectly satisfied, from Mr. ShaN's
standing in society," and from his declaration Of the
draft having Neen paid by him, that the gentleman
IN whose favour Was given, have actually received
their money. Mr.. Shaw informs us the payment Of
this draft was not acknowledged the back Of it,
as Us Customary TO DO, in consequence Of its being

posing that MIR. Shaw you'd at his leisure write
