effected with the French Government all ne Desired

This act done by the French Government IL the
most complimentary and liberal manner and orders
have been given % the French Naval Commander on
the coast OF Africa 10 put At President Roberts dis
posal two three ships oiwer whenever be wants 70
20 upon expedition 10 put down oaTrscoOns anu
break uD slave trading parties and otherwise promote
the interests of humanity upon the coast OF africa
