that all american vessels which in corise

vessels taking place in consequence of said
| Decree, after the beginning of May, by
king's.vesse!s. or by privateers, shall, be con-
sidered as null. and of no weight; as at that
period, the French Emperor, by his igno-

Spanish Independence, broke 'scantlalously

existed between Spain and France, for which
reason every thing proceeding from it should
