4 publidied by order of his Sicilian Majesty,
granted to his fubjefls of Palermo:
“ Ferdinand IV. King of the Two Sicilies, of
Jerusalem, &c. having been informed of a popular
tumult railed against Duke John Fogliani d'Arra
gona, our Viceroy, Captain General of the king
dom of Sicily, &c, on the 19th and 20th of Sep
tember 1773, i nour well beloved and faithful city
of Palermo: And after proof of the fa^ls, by
writing and verbal ptocefs, sent by our councilors
of war, and members of the police, duly assem
bled to enquire into that matter: we declare our
selves willing to proceed rather as a compassionate
father than as a severe judge: And having during
the above examinations received a deputation not
only from the magistrates, but from the Senate of
that city, and from the Rates of the kingdom,
humbly craving pardon: After due confederation,
we have resolved to shew mercy towards the
greatest part of the offenders, abandoning to jus
tice fuel )only as were most culpable. In conse
quence of which we hereby pardon all those that
joined in the sedition during the above two days,
of whatever class, profeflion, or Rate they may
be, and hereby absolve and entirely bury in obli
vion their crimes; excepting only in this pardon,
and from this indulgence, the three principal, na
med Joseph Puzzo, Jgnace Sorrentino, and Fran
cis Morici.
" We order our Viceroy and Council of Sicily
to publish the above, that all persons mayconforrrt
to it.

Warsaw, fitly 27. A courier arrived here lit
Sunday, who brought the journal of the Ru n
army, with a letter fr< m Field Marshal C. :
de Romanzow, in which that General mentions,
that the army of the Grand Vizir is (hut r # near
Sziimla, and has no longer any cononunica: a
with the town of Adrianople : io consequence f
which the Grand Vizir had proposed to him a
new congress or amnesty; but that having refused
either the one or the other, he on the contrary,
demanded a peace immediately, and without de
lay on the conditions which he had proposed,
without which he would continue in his operati
ons. As Siliftria is on the point of capitulating,
it is apparent that the conclufiun of a peace will
not be long delayed.
Petersburg/,, dug.^, La^night Marshal Roman*
zow's son arrived at Peterhoff, with the agreeable
news of the peace having been signed on the 2 ift of
July by Prince Repnin (who had powers from the
Marshal for that purpole) and two Turkilh Pleni
potentiaries named by the Grand Vizir: The
principle articles of which are—The independency
of the Crimea—The absolute cession to Russia of
Kinburn, Kerche, and Jenikale; and of all the
diftria between the Bog and the Dnieper.— 1
free navigation in all the Turkish seas; in which
is included the passage through the Dardanelles,
with all the privileges and immunities which are
granted to the most favoured nations—Several
stipulations in favour of the inhabitants of Molda
via and Wallachia, as well as those of the islands
reftoted by Russia to the Porte; the detail of which
the Marshal has not yet fpecified, reserving farther
particulars till he lends the ratification, which he
had stipulated with the Grand Vizir should be
signed on or before the 26th of July, and which
he means to transmit by Prince Repnin— Raffia is
to retain Azoff and Tagarok.
