A two component classical Coulomb system is considered, in which particles of charge +q and + 2q are constrained to lie on a circle and interact via the two-dimensional Coulomb potential. At a special value of the coupling constant the correlation functions are calculated exactly and the asymptotic form of the truncated charge-charge correlation is found to obey Jancovici's sum rule.
