shall not be subject, in the Colonies of The United Kingdom, to other or higher Duties than those to which British Vessels may be subject, on importing the same merchandize from any Foreign Country, or which are imposed upon the merchandize itself.

The same facilities shall be granted reciprocally, in the Colonies of France, with regard to the importation, in British Vessels, of all kinds of merchandize, (being productions the growth and manufacture of The United Kingdom, or of any Country under the British dominion,) with the exception of such as are prohibited to be imported into the said Colonies, or are permitted to be imported only from Countries under the dominion of France. And whereas all goods, the produce of any Foreign Country, may now be imported into the Colonies of The United Kingdom, in the Ships of that Country, with the exception of a limited List of specified Articles which can only be imported into the said Colonies in British Ships, His Majesty The King of The United Kingdom reserves to Himself the power of adding to the said List of excepted Articles any other, the produce of the French Dominions, the addition whereof may appear to His Majesty to be necessary for placing the Commerce and Navigation to be permitted to the Subjects of each of the High Contracting Parties with the Colonies of the Other, upon a footing of fair reciprocity.

seront pas assujettis, dans les Colonies du Royaume Uni, à des Droits plus élevés, ni à d'autres Droits, que ceux auxquels seraient assujettis les Navires Britanniques important les dites marchandises de quelque Pays Etranger que ce soit, et les dites marchandises elles-mêmes.

Il sera accordé réciproquement, dans les Colonies de la France, les mêmes facilités, quant à l'importation, sur Navires Britanniques, de toutes marchandises, (produits du sol et des manufactures du Royaume Uni, ou de quelque Pays que ce soit, soumis à la domination Britannique,) à l'exception de celles dont l'importation dans ces Colonies serait prohibée, ou ne serait permise que des Pays soumis à la domination Française. Et attendu que les produits des Pays Etrangers peuvent être importés maintenant dans les Colonies du Royaume Uni, sur les Vaisseaux appartenant à ces Pays, à l'exception d'un nombre limité d'Articles spécifiés, lesquels ne peuvent être importés dans les dites Colonies que sur Vaisseaux Britanniques, Sa Majesté Le Roi du Royaume Uni Se réserve la faculté d'étendre cette exception sur tout autre produit des Pays soumis à la domination de Sa Majesté Très Chrétienne, lorsque Sa Majesté Britannique jugera convenable de le faire, pour placer le Commerce et la Navigation permis aux Sujets de chacune des Hautes Parties Contractantes avec les Colonies de l'Autre, sur le pied d'une juste réciprocité.

II. From and after the same period, French Vessels shall be allowed to export from all the Colonies of The United Kingdom, (except those possessed by the East India Company,) all kinds of merchandize which are not prohibited to be exported from such Colonies in Vessels other than those of Great Britain; and the said Vessels, as well as the merchandize exported in the same, shall not be subject to other or higher Duties than those to which British Vessels may be subject, on exporting the said merchandize, or which are imposed upon the merchandize itself; and they shall be entitled to the same Bounties, Drawbacks, and other Allowances of the same nature, to which British Vessels would be entitled, on such exportation.

The same facilities and privileges shall be granted, reciprocally, in all the Colonies of France, for the exportation, in British Vessels, of all kinds of merchandize which are not prohibited to be exported from such Colonies in Vessels other than those of France.

These Two Additional Articles shall have the same force and validity as if they were inserted, word for word, in the Convention signed this day. They shall be ratified, and the Ratifications shall be exchanged at the same time.

In Witness whereof, the respective Plenipotentiaries have signed the same, and have affixed thereto the Seals of their Arms.

II. A dater de la même époque, les Navires Français pourront exporter de toutes les Colonies du Royaume Uni, (excepté celles possédées par la Compagnie des Indes,) toutes marchandises dont l'exportation de ces Colonies par Navires autres que ceux Britanniques ne serait point prohibée; et les dits Navires, et les dites marchandises exportées sur ces Navires, ne seront pas assujettis à des Droits plus élevés, ou à d'autres Droits, que ceux auxquels seraient assujettis les Navires Britanniques exportant les dites marchandises, et les dites marchandises elles-mêmes; et ils auront droit aux mêmes Primes, Remboursemens de Droits, et autres Allocations de cette nature, auxquelles pourraient prétendre les Navires Britanniques pour ces exportations.

Il sera accordé réciproquement dans toutes les Colonies de la France, les mêmes facilités et privilèges pour l'exportation, sur Navires Britanniques, de toutes marchandises dont l'exportation de ces Colonies par Navires autres que ceux Français ne serait point prohibée.

Ces Deux Articles Additionnels auront la même force et valeur que s'ils étaient insérés, mot-à-mot, dans la Convention de ce jour. Ils seront ratifiés, et les Ratifications en seront échangées en même tems.

En Foi de quoi, les Plénipotentiaires respectifs les ont signés, et y ont apposé le Cachet de leurs Armes.
