Extract from the Martinico Gazette, of June 11.  Mr.
Bingham, agent of the Congress, yesterday gave a concert,
supper and ball, to celebrate the conclusion of the treaty
of friendship between France and the United States of
America. . . [16 lines describing those present]  The
various pleasures of the dance made time slip away
insensibly, so that when Aurora with her rosy fingers looked
in on them, she found the ball going on with as much spirit
and animation as at first. . . [2 lines describing
friendship of French and Americans]
