" If iu some places the Greeks have succeeded in
rising against my Sublime Government, to which
they are *objects, and which treats them with so
much lenity, my great Empire continues (amok,
he given to the Almighty !) to be the Empire of
Nlithomet, and my people the people of Ahmed.
By the grace, and with the assistance of God, the
*fender of our faith and of our people, as well
lbs by the blessings of the spiritual- help of our
4..egtslator and Sublime Plophet, my Sublime
'Porte has been informed of the insurrection at the
very moment of its breaking oat. It has therefore,
without delay, adopted proper measurer, and caused
at various times paternal exhortations and instruc-
tions to be addressed to the individuals of every
tank of the said Greek nation, as well by the proper
authorities appointed for that special purpose, as
also through the Patriarch. it has exhorted them
to continue in time way of fidelity and loyalty, tied
within the limits of submission and obedience;
and it has also fully ocquitted itself of all the du-
ties of mercy and clemency : ou the other hand it ,
has inquired into the conduct of those who, taking
a share in the revolt, have rejected every sentiment
of fCptilliffel", and 'Wier • previous conviction it
has inflicted upon them the necessary punishment.
" But they hive not sppreciated the clemency
and mercy which have been evinced towards them,
and they have not listened to the counsels and ex-
bortations which have been addressed to them.—
Their pride and their revolt tusking on the contrary
every day farther progress, my Sublime Porte con-
sidered only of the means of maintainiug the order
and security of the State, and of restoring the
tranquillity of its inhabitants. Superior orders
have in consequence been transmitted into may well. I
defended provinces, bearing the power. in virtue of
a Sublime Fetwa which proceeds from the brilliant
law, of punishing those Reyes in full revolt who
dale to combat against the islansites, of seititas
their properties, anti making their families captive; I,
" My sublime will being pronosuced foe the asp
servance of the principle, that those subjects who
conduct themselves in a peaceable and tranquil
manner, occupying themselves with their own
affairs only, or those who having once 'become guilty
of sedition or revolt, shall have returned since iuto
the paths of submission and a sincere repentance,
shall be placed as before under the bensfieeeit
protection and shield of my Sublime Porte ;
and although I do not suffer any action op-
posed to this will manifested upon my part,
have learned in a positive matuter that in some
places this principle has not been observed.
Violence has been employed against peaceable and
defenceless subjects who have takin no part in the
revolt, and sonic persons Lave had the temerity
to seize upon their properties, their families,
and their chinches. It requires no further
declaration to make it known that such a conduct
is conformable neither to law nor to reason, that it
is diametrically opposed to the principles uuifornsly
pursued in my great empire, and that it is, in every
particular, in cositiatlietion to the Divine will, as
well as to my Imperial order. It is consequently
manifest that such conduct is dictated only by
men who arc incapuble of distinguishieg circum-
stances and relations.
" Therefoie it is that I am now about to send
particular commands, with reference to this
Matter, to the three divisions of Anatolia and of
kontelia.
My will is then, that you Vizirs, Mirimirsises,
Mollas.Judges,Sub-Judges, sad other Authorities,
should invite known this mintier of viewing affairs
M all 'daces oithin your districts and jurisdictions,
and that you should hasten to intimate to every
parson who tu iy have the audacity to attack peace•

that he shall be responsible to one for hip coos
duct in that respect. You must elicit all your
cares to relieve peaceable subjects from all vexation,
and take all necessary measures that they may per.
lectly enjoy my high 'imperial protection, and that
they who may be guilty of such excesses shall be
severely 'towelled on the spot.
