Text Appearing Before Image:
Tunis, notonly the bey, but his minister and half a dozen officers of his court,sent for their coffee, spices, sugar, and other groceries, to the Ameri-can house, demanding it as tribute. Once the bey saw there ahandsome looking-glass, for which he sent next day, and the Ameri-can consul could do no better than pack it off to him. If he refusedto comply with any demand, the bey threatened to let his piratesloose on the American trading vessels. Here is a specimen of theletters sent by this prince of pirates to the Danish consul. On account of the long friendship subsisting between us wetake the liberty to give you a commission for sundry articles, navaland military, which I find indispensable. I give you six months toanswer this letter, and one year to forward the goods. And re-member, if we do not hear from you we hnoiv ivhat steps to taker As demand followed demand, and our consuls found it was likefilling a bottomless tub witli water to satisfy these fellows, they be-gan to demur.
