General Congress annuls the law of 16 May 1831. Verbatim: «Decreto del Congreso gral. declarando que la ley de 16 de Mayo de 1831, fue obra de la violencia, atentatoria a los dros. de la Nacion y a la Constitucion fedl. y por consiguiente nula.» Gloss: the 1831 law is declared a product of violence, an attack on the rights of the Nation and on the federal Constitution, and therefore void.
