p./fejji'jn was not delivered to the U

conclud'd at Paris on the 30 th of
April 1803, has at ail limes, as is
well known, been corfidered and claim
ed by them, as being within the colony
of Louifiana cenveryed by thef did trea
•ty in the fame extent that it had in
the hands cf Spain, and that it bad
when France origin illy pojfrjjtdii.
And whereas the accuiefctnce of
the United States in the temporary
continuance cf the faid territory under
the Spanifh authority was not the re
fill of any dijlrufl of their title, ay has
been particularly evinced by the gene
ral t or of their laws, and by the dif
tiifl on made in the application of
thofe laws between that Territory and
foreign ; but was occajioned
by their conciliatory views, aim by a
confidence in the juftice of thstr caufe
and in the fucccjs cf candid ducuffon
and .amicable negotiation with a juft
and fritnaly power.
And whereas a fatisfablory adju. -* -
