ST. PETERSBURG, MARCH 4.

to the nation :

I. " Valiant warriors, faithful defenders of the
church, the throne, and the country ! It has
pleased Almighty God to visit us with the most
painful and grievous loss. We have all lost our
common father and benefactor.

the midst of his isnwearied care for Russia's
prosperity and the glory of the Russian arms, tho
Emperor Nicholas Paulovitcli, my most beloved
father, has departed to eternal life.
"His last words were--

" I thank the glorious, loyal Guards, who in
1825 saved Russia, and I also thank the brave
army and fleet ; I pray God to maintain, however,
the courage and spirit by which they have distin-
guished themselves under me. So long as this
spirit remains upheld, Russia's tranquillity is se-
cured both within and without ; then woo to her
enemies ! I loved them as my own children, and
strove as much as I could to improve their condi-
tion. If I was not entirely successful in that re-
spect, it was from no want of will, but because I
was unable to devise anything better or to do
more.'

"May these ever-memorable words remain pre-
served in your hearts as a proof of his sincere love
for you, which I share to the largest extent, and
let them be a pledge of your devotion for me and
Russia ! 66 ALEXANDER.

" St. Petersburg, March 3, 185."
IL "Brave warriors, courageous participators
in the deeds of your supreme military chief, now
sleeping in the Lord !
" You have sealed in your hearts the last words
of his tender and paternal love for you. As a mark
of this love to the troops of the Guard, the Ist
corps of cadets, and the grenadier regiment of the
generalissimo, Prince Suvarov (Suwarrow), I pre-
sent to you the uniforms of his Majesty, tho,e
which the Emperor, your benefactor, deigned him-
self to wear. Preserve this pledge, which I trust
may remain among you sacred as a relic, and like
au enduring memorial for future generations.
Moreover, I ordain as follows : _

" 1. In the companies and squadrons that have
borne his Majesty's name, and all the distinctive
charges on the epaulettes and shoulder-knots shall
retain the initial letter of the Emperor Nicholas I.
so long as one of those, registered down to March
2, 1855, sLtall continue in the said companions and
squadrons.
" 2. Thoee also who were attached to his Ma-
jesty's person as generals, or as aides-de-camp ge-
neral, or as aides-de-camp adlate, will retain the
same initial..

" May thug sacred memory of Nicholas I. survive
amongst our ranks, as a terror to the foe and for
the glory of Russia. " ALEXANDER.
" St. Pete.,.sburg, March 3, 1855."
