I wrote you a few days ago on the subject of our Ship to America craving your Advice and Assistance which I hope you will be so obliging as to favor me with a speedy Answer. I now inclose you the Draft of a Bill now in the House and which no doubt will pass into a Law, for restoring Trade betwixt this Country and America. It is formed upon liberal principles and will I have no doubt produce the desired effect. I likewise inclose you a Letter from the Earl of Buchan which I received from Mr. Strahan. Mr. Jones has got the appointment of one of the Judges in Bengal—a place of very great Emolument. I requested some Time ago the favor of Mr Mr. T. W. Franklin to make an Enquiry for me at Mr. de Castries office. I fear it escaped his Memory. No Ministry as yet formed. I am Dear sir Yours most sincerely
