If these treaties in so far as they affect British interests, and immediately report to H.Mr. any instance in which those interests have been injuriously affected. I would send a copy of the draft dispatch to F.O. for comment, and I would suggest that if they concur, a copy of it should be communicated by Lord Lyons to the French Government.
