- Mem: Conclusion of the Declaration with France as to Muscat in 1862 and the acquisition of Gwadar by Muscat.

- A memorandum explaining that Lord Canning, Viceroy and Governor General of India, had arbitrated between the two sons of Sultan Syud Saeed [Sayyid Sa‘īd bin Sulṭān Āl Bū Sa‘īd]upon his death. The two sons agreed the division of their inheritance between them as Sultans of Zanzibar and Muscat respectively, and the memorandum reproduces an Anglo-French declaration recognising the independence of the two sultans.

The memorandum was written by Richard William Brant, Foreign Office.
