THE TREATY WITH PRUSSIA.
One Clause of the Agreement Was
Drawn Up by Benjamin
Franklin.

In 1885, the United States and Prussii
entered into treaty, some provision:
of which show remarkably advanced
spirit of civilization and humanity
On our part it was signed by Benjamin
Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and John
Adams. Hon. S. c. Barrows, NJ. c. from
Massachusetts, furnishes one article Of
this treaty, copied by himself from the
original manuscript now in the archives
of the department of state at Washing
ton. From DR.. Franklin's well-knowa
adherence of war and its crueties, as
well as from the style of composition,
we may guess that the paragraph which
follows was drawn by his own hand:
at war should arise between the twu
contracting parties, the merchants OF
either country then residing in the
other shall be allowed TO remain nine
months TO collect their debts and to set
tie their affairs, and may depart freely.
carrying off all their effects without
molestation or hindrance. And all
women and children, scholars OF every
faculty. cultivators of the earth. arti-
sans, manufacturers and fishermen. un-
armed and inhabiting unfortifeG
towns, villages or places. and in gen
eral. all others whose occupations are
for the common subsistence and benefit
of mankind, shall be allowed to con
tinue their respective employments
and shall not be molested in their per
sons, nor shall their houses or goods be
burnt or otherwise destroyed, nor their
fields wasted by the armed forces Of,
the enemy. into whose power by the
events of the war they may happen to
fall; but If anything is necessary to be
taken from them for the use of such
armed force. the same shall be paid for
at reasonable price. and all merchant
and trading vessels employed in ex-
changing the products of different
places. and thereby rendering the nee
essares. conveniences and comforts OF
human life more easy TO be obtained
and more general. 1all be allowed Il,
pass free and unmc esied; and neither
of the contracting powers shall grant
or issue any commission TO any private
armed vessels empowering them to take
or destroy such trading vessels or in |
terrupt such commerce. ."-Christian |
