bonds, French frigate is scarcely seen even at
distant intervals in her ports, and the French upon
arriving there find themselves destitute Of consular
protection.
Notwithstanding these obstacles, Sire, French
commerce has not been inactive; and if the in,por
lance OF It's interests in these new relations be sill
so interior to whae It may be, already il deserves
the deep attention of the Government and the pow
