ferruptinn of price and hostile attempt:--and the bonds of fra-
ternity thrined between .ftttions, milted together by one Common
origin Vor this resisoh we have thought proper to fix the fate
of this country, eu.l to establish the Internal administration upon
piine 4)es suitable to th t,n,uage and customs of the inhabi•
tants, and adapted to the local situation.—Fellutving the pre-
eepts of the Christian religion, whose dominion extends over mu
many nations; yet maintains at the same time their distill-
g lite qualities and gnstoms—we cherish the wish while we pre-
pare the .elfaee of our new subjects, to inspire their hearts with
sentiments of attachment to our throne, and thins to efface for ever
the traces of past misfortunes, which were caused by fatal disunion,
and the long struggle. But at the moment when we thought of re
;tuning to our happy country and of enjoying the peace canoed by
such pal it'll! cares, a new war is kindled, pre ordained by the impene-
traWe councils of the Almighty. IE4 kind preridenee, which rules
over us, which even changes evil into good, permitted the rebellious
it that was concealed in France to burst forth; just at the time
v hen the Sovereigns and people, in a state of powerful prepara-
tion, were watchful ; that by their united power, wickedness
may be wholly extirpated, the harvest cleared Iron the weeds,
and the precious fruit of inviolable peace flomish among the •
Powers who observe the laws of the Christiaa faith and truth.
Russia, also, elevated by religion, is called upon to take arms; and,
attentive to this call, again enters the career of glory. The perti•
shoos plan of Napoleon Bonaparte—the treachery which has
favoured his audacious enterprise—the rapidity of his pernicious
progress, aiming at the overthrow of society, of r.11;4;on, and of
law ; all these reasons forbid the authorities established by the
Riders of Empires to recognise, in the midst, of general order, a
Government which is founded on breach of faith and violence. For
his reason) all the powers Again form an 'indissoluble union, in
order to annihilate the tyrannie power which has made itself master
of France, and there by to prevent flesh miseries. Not only the
enttagements of friendship, bet ohm the honour of the empire call
upon us to defend the rightful rause ; it cannit be foreign to

Russia, which, from titre immemorial, has combatted for religion
and fidelity. In obed.enc.: to this sac:ed voice, we go, with
the help of the liGst to new deeds. The It uit of such great
aed glorious victoties ili not be lost. Resolved to share every
tinger and privation with our victorious army, we place our firm
em,fidence in the Hosts, in the Protector of the Just. It is,
indeed, pintaill to oar bf.'art to prolong our absence from the coons
tly, lint we firmly trust in the d:eine fucour, which protects us,
that this absence will be of short duration. The attachment add
devotilit of all the anthol itics in the Empire, animated by only one
freling, and the vdour of our troops, will crown the work which we
have before tis with universal success.—All the European Powers
e. ill act in concert with us. In the days of danger and of elmy.
