The Disturbances in Tunis,

TuNis, May 3.
The Bey has issued the following proclamation to
the various governors of provinces within his juris-
diction :

" Praise be!sta God, &c. We had ordered for the
good of the State that the capitation tax should be
increased by a sum which would have produced no
disadvantage to our subjects, being in proportion to
their incomes, and we desired the chief men of all
the tribes and cities to apportion this impost. As
the order, however, has produced disorders in the
country, and we do not desire the injury of cur sub-
jects, who are the props of our government, we have
hastened to put an end to the disturbances, and
have abolished the increase of tax which we had
imposed, reducing the tax to its original amount.
Assemble, therefore, the inhabitants of your dis-
trict and the chiefs and head men of your town, lay
before them this decree, and appease their anxieties.
"It has further been brought to our knowledge
that our subjects complain of the delays suffered by
the settlement of their affairs at the enlists of jus-
tice, and desire to emp'oy them no longer. We have
granted this privilege, and our subjects are now at
liberty to have their disputes settled wherever they
think fit, either by the religious magistrates or by
the administrative tribunals, or by the Governor.
If, however, any man wish to lay his case before us
is person, the doors of our hall of justice are open to
all the oppressed, as in former times.
" Bring this to the knowledge of all our subjects,
explain it to them clearly, and do your utmost to
restore security to the roads and prevent unruly
persons from sowing discord which disturb the
peace of the population. Whoever is guilty of
these things will offend against the precepts of his
religion, plunge his country, his family, and his
native town into destruction, and will then only
have himself to thank.
" This our decree is to be executed by those whom
we have commissioned to settle disputed affairs—
viz., by the religious tribunal, the administrative
tribunal, and the Governor. May God afford His
help !
"Greeting from the humble servant of Almighty
God, Muscbir Mohamet Essadook Bascha Bey,
whom may God protect.
" Given this 16th Kaaba, 1280."
