document from their respective 
consuls.

or commanders may interfere in 
the engagements which may take 
place between the ships of the said 
powers on the open sea, and that 
they shall shew no partiality to either 
party.

are friends to the Sublime Porte, 
care must be taken.to shew no pre- 
ference to either party; and you
