UN I TED STATES OF AMERICA,
PASSED AT THE LAST SESSION OF CONGRESS:
COLLATED WITH, AND CORRECTED BY THE ORIGINAL
ROLLS IN THE OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE.
Price One Quaitcr of a Dollar.
THE ACTS of this fellion, agreeably to the plan of this edi
tion of the laws of the United States, will be confidcrcd as the
FIRST FART of the second volume; so that the a£ts of each
Congress (the duration of which is limited by the conflitution to
the term of two years) will be comprised in one volume.
To the acts of this fcflion will be annexed the ratifications of
the amendments to the Constitution ; the confederation between
the United States and the Delaware nation of Indians ; the trealy
between the United States and the Wyandot, Delaware, Ottawa,
Chippewa, I'attawatimi and Sac Nations; the treaty between
the United States and the Cherokee Nation; and the armistice,
declaring a celfation of hoftilitie» between the United Slates and
Great-Britain: These, with those in the firft volume of the laws
are all the existing treaties.
A copious index will accompany the second volume when
completed, at ihe end of the next feflion ol Congress.
" As it is desirable that copies of the laws (hould be so multi
plied throughout the States, and in such cheap forms,as that every
citizen ofthe United States may be able to procure them," it has
been thought advifeahle, in this addition, 10 omit the ftgnatures
of the Prelident of the United States, the f'rclident of the Senate,
and the Speaker of the House of Rcprefentatives. Their signa
tures would have increased thefizeof the volume, and co<ifequcnt
ly have rendered it more expensive, without adding to itsufefuf
nefs or authenticity, mafmuch as the Secretary of State's certificate
is to be prefixed to th< volume.
