transactions they may have had at intermediate
ports depriving them of the benefit of direct impor-
tation on such merchandise the shipment of which
in Russia shall be duly s ated in the ship's books.
"In consequence of the above stipulations no
differential duty can-be levied by France on mer-
chandise imported, directly from Russia under the
Russian flag, nor in Russia on merchandise im-
ported under the French flag: Moreover, his Ma-
jesty the Emperor of all the Ripsias declares that
tee enactments" of the ukase of the 19th of June,
1845, shall not in any manner be applicable to direct
or indirect commerce, nor to the navigation either
direct or indirect of the Fiench empire.
"Art. XIII: Merchandise of every description
exported from France by Russian vessel 4, or from
Russia by French veseele for any destination what-
soever, shall not be subject to any other dues or
formantits on leaving than national vessels ; and,
under either flag, they will enjoy all bounties or
restitution of dues, or o•her favonrs which are or
may be granted in either country to national na-
vigation.
"Exception to the above, however, and to the
stipulations of articles 3 and 12 is what concerns
the advantages of which the produce of the national
fisheries is or may be the object.
"Art. XIV.. In everything concerning the Cus-
tom-house dues and navigation the two high con-
tracting parties reciprocally promise not to grant
any privilege, favour, or immunity to any other
State that is not immediately and instantly ex-
tended to their respective subjects,, gratuitously, if
the concession is gratuitous, in favour of the other
State, and for the same compensation or the equi-
valent if the concession was conditional.
" Art. XV. The two high contracting parties
mutually agree upon their right to establish in the
ports and towns of their respective States consuls-
general, consuls, vice-consuls, and consular agents
appointed by them, who will reciprocally enjoy the
same privileges, powers, and exemptions as are or
may be enjoyed by those of the most favoured
nations.
" In case some of those agents should wish to
exercise commerce they are bound to submit to the
same laws and•customs as submitted to, as regards
their commercial transactions, by the private indi-
viduals of their nation and by the subjects of the
most favoured States.
Art. XVI. It is especially understood that when
one of the two high contracting parties shall select
for its consul or consular agent in a port or town
of the other party a subject of the latter, that con-
sul or agent will continue to be considered a sub-
ject of the nation to which he belougg, and will
consequently be subject to the same laws and regu-
lations which govern his fellow-citizens, without,
however, that obligation interfering in any manner
with the exercise of his functions or infringing upon
the inviolability of the consular archives.
"Art. XVII. The respective consuls-general,
consuls, vice-consuls, and consular agents are ex
elusively intrusted with the internal order do board
trading veawis of their nation, and will alone take
cognisance of any difference between the crew, cap-
tain, or officers. But the local authorities may in-
tervere when the dispute may be of a nature to
disturb the public peace on shore or in port, and
may also take cognisance of such differences when
a person of the country or a person not belonging
to the ship's company is mixed up with it.
"In all other cases the said authorities will con-
fine themselves to giving armed support to the con-
sular authorities when required to conduct to pri-
son such individuals of the crew as they may think
it advisable to send there in consequence of such
differences.
" Art. XVIIL The consuls-general, consuls,
vice-consuls, and consular agents of each of the
high contracting parties residing in the States of
the other shall receive from the local authorities
livery aid and support in detecting and arresting
sailors or other individuals belonging to the crews
of vessels of war or of commerce of their respective
countries, whether convicted or not of crimes,
offences, or misdeeds committed on board such
vessels.
" For that purpose they will make a written
application to the competent authorities, proving
that the men they wish to seize really belong to the
crew. Such deserters will be placed at the dis-
posal of the consular authorities, and may at their
request be imprisoned and kept there at the ex-
pense of the said consular agents until restored to
their shins or otherwise sent home.
" Art 'XIX. regulates cases of salvage, which are
to be reciprocally the same for both countries.
" Art. XX. empowers consular agents to put
their seal on the property of defunct persons be-
longing to their nation until the heirs-at-law are
established.
"-Art. XXI. establishes that the stipulations of
the treaty apply to all vessels sailing under the
Russian fla,,,t, including the trading vessels of the
Grand Duchy of Finland, which is an integral part
of the Russian empire.
" Art. XXII. decrees that, with a view to pro-
tect manufactures, the imitation of marks on manu-
factured goods is strictly prohibited, and any person
doing so shall be liable to an ration for damages.

posited for Russia at the office of the Tribunal de

In answer to further qtle,t,ion-, Frederick
said that he had ascertained that,MiiA„.Perry was
paying 207. per month interest upon a, debt of 2001.
for jewellery, and he paid the debt for her to savo
her from the consequence, and the pressure that
paying such an amount occasioned her.
Mr. Chambers—l believe tb e house in C imbridge.
street is still carried on as usual, and you conthuo
to go there.
Sir Frederick—Certainly, and I was 'there P.M
saw Miss Perry last night, but I only spoke to her
at the door.

Re-examined—He.paid this money solely from a
charitable feeling.
The jury here interposed, and said that they con.
sidered there was no evidence of the defendant
having rendered himself liable to the plaintiff
The Chief Baron said he entertained the saran
opinion
Mr. Chambers, however, insisted upin exernising
his right of reply, and, with some warmth, "ne said.
that he hoped the fact of the defendant having
exercised his privilege of trying the case by a special.
jury would not have the effeot of depriving the
plaintiff of what he considered his just lights. HE,
then proceeded to urge that it was clearly made otlt
that Sir Frederick Pottinger had exere's-ci coal_
-
and that he was actually making u-e of the forni:
plete authority and control over the establiBhriv,,nf_
tore that had been supplied, and the, tueler the
circumstances, he was the only person to whom. the
plaintiff ought to look for his money.
The Chief Baron, in summing up, said that the
learned counsel for the plaintiff had only done his
duty
on behalf of his client, but he, and they, had also
in insisting upon his right to address the jury
a duty to perform in the matter. The question
they had to decide was whether it was made out
that the defendant had made himself liable to. pay
the claim. The defendant swore positively that he
never gave any authority for the purelia:Ae of the
goods, and the plaintiff himself admitted that he
had never even seen Sir Frederick Pottinger until
two months after the goods had be en delivered and
all the work had been done. He then went on to
say that the plaintiff must have known perfectly
well the nature of the connexion that existed be-
tween these parties, and if a tradesman chose to
send in his goods to persons in such a position, it
was his duty to obtain some distinct authority for
so doing, and if he did not, he must take the cos.
sequences.
