TREATIES APPENDIX.

ALGIERS.

Treaties.

Algiers was an independent nation until 1830, when it became a province of France, and the treaties made between it and other countries have become absolute. The diplomatic relations of the United States with Algiers are now carried on through the French government and are subject to the treaty stipulations therewith. The following treaties were made prior to 1830:

I. TREATY OF PEACE AND AMITY.

Concluded September 5, 1795. 8 Stat. at L., p. 133. U. S. Tr. and Con. 1889, p. 1.

This treaty provided for the friendly treatment of citizens of the United States in consideration of an annual payment to the Dey of Algiers. It consisted of twenty-two articles containing provisions for commercial intercourse, etc.; it was superseded by the treaty of 1815. (See U. S. Treaties in Force, 1899, p. 1.)

II. TREATY OF AMITY AND PEACE.

Concluded June 30, 1815; proclaimed December 26, 1815. 8 Stat. at L., p. 224. U. S. Tr. and Con. 1889, p. 6.

This treaty, also of twenty-two articles, negotiated by Commodore Decatur, superseded the treaty of 1795. It provided for commercial intercourse and restitution of captives, and abolished the annual payment to the Dey. (See U. S. Treaties in Force, 1899, p. 1.)

III. TREATY OF PEACE AND AMITY.

Concluded December 22 and 23, 1816; proclaimed February 11, 1822. 8 Stat. at L., p. 244. U. S. Tr. and Con. 1889, p. 10.

This treaty contained twenty-two articles, renewing the privileges included in the treaty of 1815, but with an additional article annulling the special right accorded to United States vessels in case of war. It continued in force until 1830. (See U. S. Treaties in Force, 1899, p. 1.)
