Art. 3. The ceflion of the feigniory of Ravenftein, ftipulated in the firft article, comprifes only the part of it within the Bataviah territory. Art. 4. The prefent ceffion carries with it the whole of the rights belonging to the French republic within the extent of the Batavian poffeffions, with the exception of the houfe of France at the Hague, which formerly belonged to the French legation.
