The jurisdictional act of 1885 provides That the provisions of this act shall not extend to such claims as were embraced in the convention between the United States and the French Republic concluded on the 30th day of April, 1800. The question has sometimes been asked, whether these French spoliation claims were not pressed by our government against France after the conclusion of the treaty of September 30, 1800, which has always been relied upon as surrendering the rights of these claimants to France for a valuable consideration. We have seen that Napoleon in ratifiying the convention of 1800, did so with the proviso “that by this retrenchment the two states renounce the respective pretensions, which are the object of the said article,” that is, “the indemnities mutually due, or claimed.” The claims here referred to were, on our side, for seizure of our ships and cargoes
