RUSSIA. PETERSBURGH, OCTOBER 30. The Manifeffo by which his IMPERIAL MAJIIiry de:lares that Georgia, called by the'Ruilians Gru finia, b united to the Crown, gives an account of the motives that deter mined this meafiire. The Sovereigns of Ruflia have always confider - ea it as a duty to prated that State ; the withdrawing of the . Ruffian troops from it had oceafioned every kind of dißsrde'r,snd civil war had often burll forth.= The barbanius tribes by whom a is •furronnded, threatened it on every fide, and without the Ruf fians it was impoffible to reprefs the banditti of Mount Caucafus. When the Emperor ALEXAR• DER afcended the Throne he found Georgia united to the Crown, in confequence ,of a Maraca° dated January 18, ASJI. However, as the Ruffians had • reflored tranquillity in it, the Emperor was de . firous of trying to'rellore to it its independence ; ft but this country had again to dread the vengeance of thine syho'had been excluded from the Sove , .reignty—it was threatened with a new civil war.— . The Prince by whom it was governed could not fecure it tither internally or vssternally, and to all thee eircumftances was added the with of the . Georgians themfelves.—" Your hopes this time," . laid the Emperor to them, " (hall not be deceived. _ It is not to encreafe my power, it is not for inte fell, it is not to extend the bOundaries of an Em , vire already fo extenfive, that we have taken upon us the government of Grufinia—our dignity alone, • our honour and humanity, impale on us the (s -eri:a obligation of liflening to the voice of thofe who fulifer, and to efiablifh in Grufinia Skill go vernment, which may enfure the Laity of perfons and property, and the proteding force of the law." Theft are the intentions of our auguft Monarch. . The produce of the taxes of Georgia will not go out of the country, it will be confcerated to the fupport of Government, to the reparation of towns and villages, ruined by inteftine war, and to the relief of the inhabitants. Each will be maintained in his rights, and in the exercife of his religion. The children of the Princes will rctaintheir ellates, ' and may live where they pleaf:. Lieutenant-Ge _neral Krioaans o, a native of Georgia, will be charged with the Government ; and in order that be may carry into effeel the intlro4tions of the Em peror, he will atinciate wnit hint other perfons • born in the country. All the Georgians will take an oath of fidelity to thtir new ziovereign, and the Ecclefiallics and Puitcrs will be the firll to gin , this example of lubmiffion. His Majeily concludes with expreffing an ardent with that peace and juilice may prevail in the country; that an end may be put to ails z , f fence; and that agriculture, iuduary, commerce, and manufaelures may r . :ivc, muter the protec tion of the new laws, equal to all.
