Excerpt from The Annual Register, or a View of the History, Politics, and Literature, of the Year 1820, Vol. 2 It bein known that the treaty was ormed under these circumstances, not a doubt was entertained that his Catholic ma jesty would have ratified it with out delay. I regret to have to state that this reasonable expec tation has been disappointed that the treaty was not ratified within the time stipulated, and has not since been ratified. As it is important that the nature and character of this unexpected occurrence should be distinctly understood, I thing it my duty to communicate to you all the facts and circumstances in my posses-v sion relating to it.
