From Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) [bouvier]:

  SPONSIONS, international law. Agreements or engagements made by certain 
  public officers, as generals or admirals, in time of war, either without 
  authority, or by exceeding the limits of authority under which they purport 
  to be made. 
       2. Before these conventions can have any binding authority on the 
  state, they must be confirmed by express or tacit ratification. The former 


  is given in positive terms and in the usual forms; the latter is justly 
  implied from the fact of acting under the agreement as if bound by it, and 
  from any other circumstance from which an assent may be fairly presumed. 
  Wheat. Intern. Law, pt. 3, c. 2, Sec. 3; Grotius, de Jur. Bel. ac Pac. 1. 2, 
  c. 15, Sec. 16; Id. 1. 3, c. 22, 1-3: Vattel, Law of Nat, B. 2, c. 14, 209-
