avait fait résistance pour se soumettre à un Armistice de fait, les Corsaires Grecs ne cessent d'infester les Mers, et que le Tribunal des Prises, le seul connu dans le Code Grec, ne cesse de chercher à justifier ces excès sous des formes légales.

Votre Gouvernement Provisoire parait croire que les Chefs des Escadres Alliés ne sont pas d'accord sur les mesures à prendre pour faise cesser ce brigandage. Il se trompe. Nous vous déclarons ici unanimement, que nous ne souffrirons pas que, sous de vains prétextes, vous chercherez à aggrandir le théâtre de la Guerre, c'est à dire, le cercle des Pirateries.

Nous ne souffrirons pas que les Grecs fassent aucune expédition, aucune course, aucun blocus, hors des limites de Volo à Lépante, en y comprenant Salamine, Egine, Hydra, et Spécie.

Nous ne souffrirons pas que les Grecs portent l'insurrection ni à Chio, ni en Albanie, pour y exposer les populations à être massacrées en représailles par les Turcs.

Nous regarderons comme nulles toutes Patentes délivrées à des Corsaires, qui seront trouvés hors des limites prescrites, et les Bâtimens de Guerre des Puissances Alliées auront partout l'ordre de les arrêter.

Il ne vous reste aucun prétexte; l'Armistice de mer existe de fait du côté des Turcs; leur Flotte n'existe plus. Prenez garde à la vôtre, car nous la détruirons de même s'il le faut, pour arrêter un brigaudage maritime qui finirait par vous faire mettre hors la Loi des Nations.

Comme le Gouvernement Provisoire actuel est sans force, comme sans moralité, c'est au Corps Législatif que nous adressons ces dernieres et irrévocables résolutions.

Quant au Tribunal de Prises qu'il a institué, nous le déclarons incompétent pour juger aucun de nos Bâtimens sans notre concours. Nous avons l'honneur d'être, etc.
