NOTES TO CHAPTER I


 S"Treaty of Amity, Settlement, and Limits, Signed at Washington, Febru-
ary 22, 1819," in Division of State Department Archives, the National Ar-
chives, Washington, Treaties. The most reliable publication of this treaty is
in the current series: D. Hunter Miller, Treaties and Other Iternational Acts
of the United States of America (Washington, 1931-), III:3-20.
 Samuel Flagg Bemis, Pindsany's Treaty (Baltimore, 1926), pasuai
 SClaims against Spain represented some 125 vesels and cargoes, at a valu-
 ation of from five to eight million dollars; those against France nearly the
 same. See Charles E. Hill, "James Madison," in Americn Beeortaries of State
 (New York, 1927-1929), III:48. The complex problems of maritime spoli-
 ations run through the whole period. But they affected the Adams-Onfs nego-
 tiations only slightly, and the claims were nounced in the treaty with little
 argument.
 SMiller, op. cit., 11:492-497.
 SCircumstantial evidence of a boundary agreement to include Texas in
 Louisiana made just preceding that treaty is presented in Riehard Stenberg,
 "The Boundaries of the Louisiana Purchase," Hispanic American Historical
 Review, XIV (1934):32-64. But no satisfactory proof that it existed is ad-
 vanced. Certainly there was no consideration of such a document in the Adams-
 Onis negotiations.

 v Of evallos in this period a French writer has said: "The new secretary of
 state had [in 1800] for eight years been the nightmare of foreign ambassa-
 dors. Obliging attention and passions of anger, ruses and threats were
 equally futile against his stammering and confused discourse, his involved
 notes, pedantic and vacuous, [and] his indolence and inertia.... But Cevallos
 had in the eyes of Godoy, whose cousin he had married, one quality of first
 rank: absolute submission to the favourite."-Andr6 Fugier, Napoldos et
 I'BRpagne (Paris, 1930), 1:119.
