rious memory, and the United States, ha-
wing agreed to conclude treaty of com

the appointment of the plcnipotentiaries
and the articles agreed on are recited I In
consequence the United States have de-
clared by their minister plenipotentiarv
accredited at orr court, that for grave
reasons they are prevented from ratifying
articles s, 4, and 6, of the above recited
treaty, and as we have found the tenour
ofthese articles of such nature tina. they
may be excluded from the treaty, without
prejudice to the interest of our faithful
subjects, we have for these causes thought
mt to ratify. approve, and accept the "a
boye inserted treaty Of commerce, with
the exception ofthe articles S, 4, and 6 !;
and we do hereby accept, approve, and
ratify the same, Sc. tSigned)
