,r • • Z'r ' I . p SSCRET SOC IN RUSSIA. \ . - 'IMPORT Of TIDE COISIIISION Sig ENIQUINY ESTABLISHED . AT ST. PETERSSUILOWTH CONSEQUENCE OF THE EVENTS OF THE 25/11 OF DECEMBER, 1825. (Coschukd from our Paper of Friday). Amongtheeonspirarors; Steinhall was one .of those who leaft infattiated. Accordingly, Reylieff said to him, " They wish for democracy ; but it is impos sible, it is folly. We for our part %sib!) for a limited monarchy." On the other hand, the same Reylieff pre tended, that in monarchies there could be no great chko., racters; that no goad governments existed but in Ame rica ; that all Europe grooved in slavery, and that Rus sia would give an example of freedom. Ott the other hand, he pretends he did not know with certainty, the resolution of the Southern Society, to destroy the Em peror and his family; that he did in fact consider the g. vermeil of the United States of America as prefer. able to all others; but that his intention was to preserve monarchical forms for a time in Russia ; that he would only have divided it into great provinces similar to the States of the American federation, and to the question, " What shall we do if the Emperor do ant accept out conditions?" he answered, " Could he not be trans ported?" This opinion receiving the concurrence of the Tingle iders„ he had been personally charged to pre pare means for employing the fleet at Cronstadt for that pprpose. Tile death of the Emperor Alexander only served to shew the impotence of the conspirators. Having learnt this event at the same time with the existence of the Manifesto which fixed the succession of the Throne, and the taking of t h e oath of fidelity to the Grand Duke Constantine, they did not conceal in their meetings the deers regret they felt. Balenkoff said on this subject, " The opportunity which has escaped t will not present' , itself again for fifty years; if therehad been good heads in the Council of Stre, Russia would this day have, taken an oath of fidelity at once to a new Sovereign and to new laws. Now all is lost for us, and beyond; recovery." Fears were soon entertained of the d:ssolu-, ticn of the Society ; but the intelligence, that Constan tine persisted in not accepting the Crown, reanimated the tripes of the conspirators. They flattered themselves with the hope of being able to deceive the troops and the people, by persuading them that the Grand Duke bad not renounced the Crown, to excite them to sedition Under this pretext, and thus to overturn the established Government and system. In short, the factious were to profit by this opportunity. 1. To establish a provisionary goveniment, which would have ordered in the provinces the formation of Chambers charged with electing Deputies. . To labour for the formation of two Legislative Chambers, one of which, the Upper Chamber, was to b.: composed of perma nent members. 3. To use for the execution of this design such of the troops as should refuse to take the oath to your Majesty. Afterwards they wets to proceed to the formation of Chambers in the provinces, who would have constituted so many local legis - atures, to the change of the military colonies into national guards, to giving up the citadel of-St. Petersburgh into the hands of the Municipality. This citadel, Balenkoff, for this reason, has called the Palladium of the Russian Liberties, and in it were to be placed the municipal council and the civic guard, . agreeably to the proclamation of the independence of the Universities of Moscow, Dorpar, and Wilna. According to another plan developed to Balenkoff, the conspirators were to separate, some proclaiming the Grand Duke Con tantine, and others your Majesty; and if the balance had inclined in favour of the first, it would have been necessary either that your Majesty should consent to a Change in the public institutions, and to the establishment of a provisionary government, or that you should defer your accession to the throne, and then the conspirators, declaring that your delay was an abdication, were to proclaim the Grand Duke Alexander your heir. On the other hand, Balenkoff presumed that, at . the time of the revolutionary explosion, an attempt would be made on the life of your Majesty, and Reylieff had said, on this subject, to Katiersky, embracing him, 4 4 My dear friend, you are alone in the world; you ought to sacrifice yourself for society ; assassinate the Em peror." At the same instant the other conspirators had seized him in their arms, and he had promised to obey. He wished to penetrate into tke palace in the disguise of an officer of grenadiers; or to wait upon one of the steps for the passing of your 'Majesty ; but he after wards found the project was impracticable, which the other conspirators also assented to. Some of the conspirators advised them to confine themselves to arresting your 1%1 •jesty, and all your august family. This question gave rise to discussion, which Reylieff terminated by saying, that circumstances would show what it would be necessary to do. They knew that the manifesto of your Majesty; on your acces sion; was to appear on the 14th December. That day 'was to serve aS a signal to tire conspirators. It was re solved to lead - the soldiers to revolt, by manifesting doubts concerning the resignation of the Governor and tkuke Constantine to collect before the Palace all the Voons that.should be . gained over, and there to wait the /miller measures of the Government. It was thought that your Majesty, far from employing force against the rebeli would immediately resume the rights of sove :. reigoty, or would have entered into negociations with the insurgents, who would then have demanded-1. That deputies from all the Governments should be as sembled. 2. That a matrifesto should be published by the Senate, announcing. that the Deputies o ere to vote for certain laws. 3. Thai, in the meantime, a new Provisionary Government should be established, to which Deputies from the kingdom of Poland should be invited, in order to adopt such means as might be' necessary for the preservation of the unity of the State. If your Majesty took the resolution to send for the Grand Dtrke Constantine to St. Petersburgh, the con s*g:it ators would have required that a cantonment should be assigned to t 1 err! out of the city, to encamp there, re,:withstanding the winter, and to w sit for his Imperial flightless; but they would still have insisted upon the convocation of the Deputies, whether to supplicate the Grand Duke to accept the Crown or to take a solemn oath to your Majesty. In short, if the Grand Duke Constantine art ived at St. Petersburgh, they hoped to roake his Imperial Highness believe, that this iiisur . Tection was enly in cc nsequerce of the attachment 1 0hich they bore to his person. Such w..s the plan which *conspirators communicated to each other, according t 9 PI ince 'tionbeizkoy ; but by admitting the deposi - tibtris6l the other accomplices, it would be necessary to , snake J .. ; undergo many modifications. Thio . plait was ti be exe.:uted on the 14th December, ' rota- otr the 13th no doubts were yet ..vimert,nned of its, ktiscess. l ice Ba' on de S . ;:inhull had alr ea dy begun to ;haw titre manif esto, which sated that the two Grand -Dukes, hiving renounced the glorious part of- fathers of their country, it was fist to appoint a Soveteign, that the Senate cleated a gene l sit convocation of the De puties nEt'..e Empite, and in thekterval a provisionary Government. Meanwhile, the nearer that the moment approached, more inspatience_did the conspitsinis display, and the more itresolution, the more remorse and fear was mani fested by their Chief. In spite, notwithstanding, of the uncertainty and terror which agitated him, it was agreed that he should, on the morrow, proceed to the place of the Senate, to put himself at the head of the troops who refused to take the oath ; but the two Chiefs who had been named to act under his orders had con certed together not to be found on the spot ; the one, because being but newly initiated to the conspiracy, he did not comprehend' the utility of it; the other, because the greater number of the Chiefs appeared to him ob jects of suspicion.• In order to - commence their operations, Reyhef sent to the quarters of the Battalions of the Marine, for the purpose of gaining over their officers, who, after long resisting, at length came to the sudden resolution of participating in the insurrection, and the sailors, led astray by their officers, refused to take the oath. Gen. Schipoff, who was charged to impose it,. caused the Captains of Companies to be arrested, who were, how ever, speedily released by some of the conspirators. At that moment these words were pronounced, " Do you hear those volleys? These are our comrades whom they are assassinating." At these words the Battalion sprung out of their Barracks, and while on their march they met a Lieutenant of one of the Finland Regiments, who cried out, 4 4 Form a square against the cavalry 1" In the regiment of Moscow the rebellion had com menced at an earlier hour: Prince Stchapine, after having animated his soldiers by his harangues, com manded them to take ball cartridges, and to load their muskets, to take away the colours of the grenadiers, and ,to drive them back with the stocks of their pieces. He himself struck General Fredericks, and wounded him on the head ; he struck Major Schenschin repeatedly with his sword, and several other of fi cers and petty officers; at length he succeeded in seizing the standard, and in putting the companies in motion towards the Place du Senat. This conspirator, notwithstanding the violence of his conduct, had already begun to feel re morse, and in the morning, when getting up, he ad dressed the following prayer to GOD :---" 0 GOD, if our enterprise is just, grant us thy aid ; if not, let thy will be done." Means nearly similar produced re volt in the regiment of Grenadiers of the Body Guard, who joined the companies brought on by Stchapine.— Several individuals, dressed in trock-coats, armed with poignards, pistols, and sabres, mingled in the ranks. Meanwhile the measures taken speedily checked the progress of the revolt ; anarchy already pervaded the ranks of the rebels, though the most violent continued to signalize themselves by assassination.. It has been proved that it was Kaheosky who mortally wounded General Miloradovitch, whom Prince Obolensky also stabbed with a bayonet. Kahoosky, after having in a similar way killed Colonel Starter, threw away his pistol, exclaiming, "'cis enough, I have two of them on my conscience." It was Prince Stchapine who first gave orders to fire. A Colonel and a number of men were wounded, and William Kocchelbeker was daring enough to point his pistol against the Archduke Michael, but some of the sailors laid hold of his arm. In the mean time, the conspirators who•ewere to as- ' semble at the rendezvous, is order to take tfoosmand of the trcops, Boulaloff cameos a mere spettator; Yakou bovitch appeared only for a moment ; and Prince Trott. betzkoy came in a great hurry, and took the oath to your Majesty, thus flattering himself to wipe out a part of his criminality. Having done this he took sham% in the house of the Austrian Ambassador, his brother-in, law, when he was demanded by Count Nesselrode, by order of your Majesty. Finally, Balenkoff hastened to take the oath without farther thought of the reforms of the State, nor of the glory of becoming one of the Chiefs of the Government, and thirsting after nothing but the speedy arrest of the rebels. All the other individuals, who, more or less had shared in the rebellion, recipro cally denounced each other, and thus were speedily made known to the Commission. When arrested, and questioned, some spontaneously pleaded guilty, and, among others, Colonel Boulatoff, who was furious when he learned that his name had been used in order to seduce his regiment to its ruin—the idea that all the soldiers of this regiment, who were found in the Place du Sencd should be put to death, had affected his reason, and he said in a letter to the Grand Duke Michael, 4 1 Whoever sees my name at the foot of the oath, sees there the name of a villain." By and by the furious passions, which agitated him, by degrees subsided ; Boulatoff vas not a villain, at least he was not hardened in crime, and up to the moment when he died, of a malady of long standing, he ceased not to be tortured by the remembrance of his horrible design. lie endeavoured to appease his re morse by frank avowals of his guilt; and, in dying, committed, with confidence, his children to the care of the Sovereign whose assassination he had plotted. By mid-day the arrest of the ptincipal conspirators was effected, according to the orders brought from Taganrok, and provoked by the denunciations of C iptain Mayorporda. Although Pestel had promised to make no confession, he avowed every thing, and named his accomplices, who were sent to St. Petersburgh, at the request of the Commission. The trophies of Vasselkef sprung out of the arrest of the brothers Mouravieff, who not being guarded with sufficient care, were set at liberty (hiking the night. committed to some officers who be. loffged to the .Society of Sciavonians, they conceived the project of stirring up to mutiny the regiment of Tcher. nigoff. This project, which was actually attempted to be executed, was knocked on the head by a detachment of the Hussars, of Gmeral Geismas, and the whole of the conspirators were either given up by the men, or shot during the action. Having now pointed 3ut the views and the acts of these seditious associations, it remains only tor the Commission to call the attention of your Majesty to the part winch individuals, interrogated in the ' course of this question, have taken in the conspiracy. —The Commission has endeavoured, in separate notices, to establish, with scrupulous exactitude, their degree of, culpability. These notices, with all the documents, more or less impoi tarn, relating to this matter, accom pany the present report, which has the honour of bring ing them under the eye; of your Majesty.

STOCKHOLM, Just OUT city has been in great danger from the fire in the woods, especially from the fire at Erstaulo, half a mile distant. The King repaired to the spot in person, sent troops, had the peasants assem_ bled, and by judicious measures averted the danger ; but all at once the wind vered to the south, and caused the fire to spread with such violence that it extended over a lake, 3000 feet broad, to the island of Sikhs. Happily, it stopped here; only a small house was burnt the first day. The part which the fire has passed over, in the forests and in the mountains. may be about ten English miles in extent. _ COPENHAGEN, JULY 15: Captain Kotzebue arrived here on Tuesday, from his voyage round the world. On Monday evening an English ship of the line, accompanied by a steam-boat, arrived here, and sailed on Thursday for the South Sea. Great damage has been done in many places by hail storms. Accounts from Ifataria of the middle of March state that an engagement took place on the 18th of February. in which the Dutch gained the advantage ; but the Indians having been re inforced, the Dutch were again obliged to retreat. Letters front Napoli di Romania, of the 7th of June, state that Napoli, Malvosie, Athens, and Corinth, are provkioned for a year. It also states that Commodore HAMILTON bad returned from the Dardanelles, where he went to carry the Greek proposi tions, which were addressed to Mr. Saaaerroaa Caxticsa ; but the Ambassador refused to present them to the Divan, saying ha must have orders from his Government. Charleston /Wets have been received twelve days later than the last arrivals from that quarter, to the 28th June, but they du nut bring any intelligence.
