We are Informed from such authority as
may be depended upon that the French
government, in consequence of the forgeries
and fraud practised at London (the head
quarters of correct principles) has ordered
all their consuls in: the most positive man

tihcates of origin to vessels going to any
countries except France, whatever their
cargo may be; and that they should also
refuse giving certificates of origin of colo

France.

admitted at all. will be under such checks
as to guard against every species of British
fraud and imposition, which have found but
too many accomplices in our countrymen.
