STATE PAPERS OMITTED. 
States shallreceive conjunctly the 
fifth,which remains after the ap- 
propriation of the 500 millions, 
contained inthepreceding article. 
Art. VIII. The partition of this 
fifth among the different acceding 
States shall be regulated by the 
number of troops respectively set 
on foot by them, and also in con- 
formity to treaties, and particu- 
larly to the way in which they 
shared in the sum of 100 millions, 
whichwereassigned by the French 
Government for the pay of the 
troops. 
Art. IX. As the King of Sar- 
dinia recovers that part of Sar- 
dinia, and the King of the Ne- 
therlands, besides the fortresses 
of Marienburg and Philipeville, 
obtains that part of Belgium, 
which the treaty of Paris of the 
20th of May left to France; and 
as these two Sovereigns in this 
enlargement of their territories 
find a fair indemnity for their ef- 
forts, they, therefore, shall have 
no share in the money-indemni- 
ties, and their proportion, as fixed 
in the table adjoined to the pre- 
ceding article, shall be divided 
between Prussia and Austria. 
Art. X. As the payments of 
the French government are to be 
made at periodsfixed by the treaty 
of the 20th of November, 1815, 
and the conventions thereto an- 
nexed, it is agreed thateach state, 
which, according to the present 
Protocol, shares inthese payments, 
shall receive at each of these pe- 
riods the pro rata part of his pro- 
portion ; and the same also shall 
be the case, when a state has its 
share thereof under different 
titles at the same time; as, for in- 
stance, Austria for her fifth and 
for her allotted share of the pro- 
6135 
portion of Belgium and Sardinia. 
This principle shall, in like man- 
ner, be followed, when in the 
event of the default of payment 
by the French Government, it 
should be necessary to sell a part 
of the inscriptions, which serve as 
pledges. 
Art XI. As Prussia and Aus- 
tria have urgently represented the 
advantage, which they would na- 
turally derive from the receipt of 
a larger sum than the general di- 
vision assigns to them, in the first 
months, Russia and England have 
agreed, in order to facilitate the 
general arrangement, thateach of 
these two powers shall, from the 
date of the first payment, receive 
an advance of 10 millions of francs 
on their shares, under the. con- 
dition that they account to them 
for this sum, in the following 
years. 
Art. XII. This repayment shall 
be made by instalments, s0 that 
Austria and Prussia shall pay 
each, from its share in each of 
the four following years, the sum 
of 23 millions of francs to Russia 
and England. 
Art. XIII. To avoid the nume- 
rous inconveniences which might 
arise from want of unity in levy- 
ing the sums tobe paid by France, 
it is resolved, that a Commission 
residing at Paris shall alone be 
charged with the receipt of those 
sums, and that none of the powers 
which have a share in these pay- 
ments, shall negociate for itself 
on this head with the French Go- 
yernment ; none shall ask or re- 
ceive from the French Govern- 
ment the bons in which the pay- 
ments will be made immediately, 
and without the intervention of 
the said Commission. This Com-
