to order to put a stop to all revolutionary intrigues on
the part of ill•iotentioned people, and to guarantee the
life, the tranquillity, and the property of the quiet inhabi-
tants of the province which has been placed under my
charge, I hereby announce as follows:

session, or instruments capable of causing death or inflicting
wounds, shall be judged by a court-martial within 24 hours,
and punished with death.

11 3. All priests and ecclesiastics who dare to show either
by words, even without much meaning, or by abuse of au-
I thority, any sympathy for the insurrection, shall be pun.
limbed with a fine of from 50 to 200 roubles ; and if the
offence is repeated the fine may be raised, according to its
gravity, to 300 roubles, or the offender may be tried as a
rebel and an insurgent.
4. Every landowner on whose estate an insurgent, or one
who has taken part in the insurrection, is found, and who

is sot a grave one, sod not worth a military trial.
