That the kings or rajahs of Cochin and Cananore shall be included in this treaty as co-allies, mutually sharing all danger and advantages with the other contracting parties: So that if any one shall take arms against any of the parties to this treaty, he shall be declared an enemy to all the parties hereby confederated.

Howe had not received recognition at the hands of either the late or the present Government. "The hon. member for Birmingham seemed dissatisfied with the phrase used by Lord Monck respecting the establishment of a new nation. It meant this, that the people of the confederated colonies were to remain under the British Crown or it meant nothing.
The laurels of the conqueror of the Turks drooped and withered in Flanders.

The profound and skilful policy of the Prince of Orange raised obstacles against him which he could not surmount.
