ANDREW JACKSON.
_January 23, 1833_.

_To the House of Representatives_:

I send herewith a convention concluded on the 14th day of October last
between the United States and His Majesty the King of the Two Sicilies.
This treaty has been ratified by me agreeably to the Constitution, and
the ratification will be dispatched to Naples without delay, when there
is no doubt it will be ratified by His Sicilian Majesty.

The early communication of this treaty is deemed proper because it will
be necessary to provide for the execution of the first article in order
that our fellow-citizens may with as little delay as possible obtain the
compensation stipulated for by this convention.
