Uponthis occasion I will give you a piece of advice, which by experience Iknow to be useful. In all commissions, whether from men or women, 'pointde galanterie', bring them in your account, and be paid to the uttermostfarthing; but if you would show them 'une galanterie', let your presentbe of something that is not in your commission, otherwise you will be the'Commissionaire banal' of all the women of Saxony. 'A propos', Who isyour Comtesse de Cosel? Is she daughter, or grand-daughter, of the f...amousMadame de Cosel, in King Augustus's time? Is she young or old, ugly orhandsome?
I do not wonder that people are wonderfully surprised at our tameness andforbearance, with regard to France and Spain. Spain, indeed, has latelyagreed to our cutting log wood, according to the treaty, and sent strictorders to their governor to allow it; but you will observe too, thatthere is not one word of reparation for the losses we lately sustainedthere. But France is not even so tractable; it will pay but half themoney due, upon a liquidated account, for the maintenance of theirprisoners.
