dard is the Sun, the Sacred, the August, the Great Mo-
narch, the absolute King of Kings of all the States of
Persia, being both equally and sincerely animated by a
desire to put a stop to the evils of a war which is con-
trary to their friendly wishes and dispositi,n3s, and to re-
establish on a solid basis the relations of amity which
had so long existed between the two exalted States, by
means of a peace calculated for their mutual advantage
and proff-, Cave appointed as their Plenipotentiaries, for
carrying into effect this desired object, the following,
that IS 10 say—
Her Majesty the Queen of the United Kingdom of
Great Britain and Ireland, the Right IL la. Henry Richer]
Charles, Baron Cooley, a peer cf the United Kingdom,
a member of her Majesty's Most Hon. Privy Courcil,
Knight Grand Cro-s of the Most Hon. Order of the
Bath, her Majesty's Ambassador Ex Taordivary and Ple-
nipotentiary to his Majesty the Emperor of the French,
&c ;
And Lis Majesty the Shah of Persia, his Excellency
the Al) .de of Greatness, the Favourite of the King, Fe-
rokh Khan, Ameen Ooluncolk, the Great Ambassador of
tl e Mighty State of Persia, the Possessor of the Royal
Portrait and of the Blue Cordon, the Bearer of the Dia
mond-studded Girdle, &c., &c.;
Who, having exhibited and exchanged their full powere,
and found them to be in due form, have agreed upon and
concluded the follow iog articles :
I. From the day of the exchange of the ratifications of
the present treaty there shall be perpetual peace and
friendship between her Majesty the Queen of the United
Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, on the one part,
and his Majesty the Shah of Persia on the other, as like-
wise between their respective successors, dominione, and
subjects.

11. Peace being happily concluded between their said
Majesties, it is hereby agreed that the forces of her
Majesty the Qat en shall evacuate the Persian territory,
subject to conditions and stipulations hereafter specified.
111. The high contracting parties stipulate that all
prisoners taken during. the war by either belligerent
shall be immediately liberated.

IV, His Majesty the Sbah of Persia engages, imme-
diately on the exchange of the ratifications of this treaty,
to publish a fill and complete amnesty, absolving all
Persian subjects who may have in any way been compro-
mised by their intercourse with the British forces during
the war, from any responsibility of the'r conduct in that
respect, so that no persons, of whatever degree, shall be
exposed to vexation, persecution, or punishment, on that
account.

V. his Majesty the Shah of Persia engages further
to take immediate measures for withdrawing from the
territory and city of Herat, and from every other part of
Affghanistan, the Persian troops and authorities now
stationed therein; such withdrawal to be effected with-
in three months from the date of the exchange of the
ratifications of this treaty.
VI. His Majesty the Shah of Persia agrees to relin-
quish all claims to sovereignty over the territory and
city of Herat and the countries of Affghanistan, and never
to dernarel from the chiefs of Herat, or of the countries
of Affgbanistan, any marks of obedience, such as the
coinage, or " khotbeh," or tribute. His Majesty fur
ther engages to abstain hereafter from all interference
with the internal affairs of Affgbanistan. His Majesty
promise, to recognise the independence of Herat, and of
the whole of Affghanistan, and never to attempt to inter-
fere with the independence of those States. In case of
differences arising between the Government of Persia
and the countries of Herat and Affghanistan, the Persian
Government engages to refer them for adjustment to the
friendly offices cf the British Government, and not to
take arms unless those friendly offices fail of effect. The
British Government, on their part, engage at all times
to exert their influence with the State of Affghanistan,
to prevent any cause of umbrage being given by them,
or by any of them, to the Persian Government ; and
the British Government, when appealed to by the Per-
sian Government, in the event of difficulties arising, will
use their best endeavours to compose such differences in
a manner just and honourable to Persia. .
VII. In case of any violation of the Persian frontier
by any of the States referred to above, the Persian Go-
vernment shall have the right, if due satisfaction is not
given, to undertake military operations for the repres-
sion and punishment of the aggressors ; but it is dis-
tinctly uaderstood and agreed to that any military force
of the Shah which may cross the frontier for the above-
mentioned purpose, shall retire within its own territory
as soon as its object is accomplished, and that the exer-
cise of the above-mentioned right is not to be made a
pretext for the permanent occupation by Persia, or for
the annexation to the Persian dominions of any town or
portion of the said States.
VIII. The Persian Government engages to set at liberty
without ransom, immediately after the exchange of the
ratifications of this treaty, all prisoners taken during
the operations of the Persian troops in Affghanistan,
and all Affgbans who may be detained either as
hostages or as csptis es on political grounds in any part
of the Persian dominions shall, in like manner, be set
free ; provided that the Affghans, on their part, set at
liberty, without ransom, the Persian prisoners and cap-
tives who are in the power of the Affgbans. Commis-
sioners on the part of the two powers shall, if necessary,
be named to carry out the provisions of this article.
IX. The high contracting parties engage that, in the
establishment and recognition of consuls-general, consuls,
vice-consuls, and consular agent, each shall be placed in
the dominions of the other on the footing of the most fa-
voured nation; and that the treatment of their respective
subjects, and their trade, shall also in every respect be
placed on the footing of the treatment of the subjects
and commerce of the most favoured nation.
X. Immediately after the ratifications of this treaty
have been exchanged, the British Mission shall return
to Tehran, when the Persian Government agrees to re-
ceive it with the apologies and ceremonies specified in
the separate note signed this day by the plenipotenti-
aries of the high contracting parties.
XI. The Persian Government engages within three
months after the return of the British mission to Tehran
to appoint a commissioner, who, in conjunction with a
commissioner tube appointed by the British Government
shall examine into and decide upon the pecuniary claims
of all British subjects upon the Government ;of Persia,
and shall pay such of those claims as may be pronounced
just, either in one sum or by instalments, within a period
not exceeding one year from the date of the award of
the commissioners. And the same commissioners shah
examine into and decide upon the claims on the Per•
sian Government of all Persian subjects, or the subjects
of other powers, who, up to the period of the departure
of the British mission from Tehran, were under British
protection, which they have not since renounced.
XII• Saving the provisions in the latter part of the
preceding article, the British Government will renounr 3
the right of protecting hereefter any Persien subjece
not actually in the employment of the British mission,
or of British consul::-general, consuls, vice-consuls,
or consular agents, provided that such right is accorded
to, or exercised by, any other foreign Powers ; but in
this, as in all other !Tepees, the British Government re-
quires, and the Persian Government engages, that the
same privileges and immunities shall in Persia be con-
ferred upon, and shall be enjoyed by, the British Govern-
ment, its servants and its subjects, and that the same re-
spect and consideration shall be shown for them, and
shall be enjoyed by them, as are conferred upon and en-
joyed by, and shown to, the most favoured foreign Go
vernmene, its servants and its subjects.
XIII. The high contracting parties hereby renew the
agreement entered into by them in the month of August,
1851 (Sbawal 1267), for the suppression of the slave trade
iu the Persian Gulf, and engage further that the said
agreement shall continue in force after the date at which
it expires ; that ie,..after the month of August, 1862,
for the further space of ten years, and for so long after-
wards as neither of the high contracting parties shall, by
a formal declaration, annul it ; such declaration not to
take effect until one year after it is made.
XIV. Immediately on the exchange of the ratifica-
tions of this treaty, the British troops will desist from
all acts of hostility against Persia ; and the British Go-
vernment engages, further, that, as soon re the stipula-
tions in regard to the evacuation, by the Peisian troops
of Herat and the Affghan territories, as well as in regard
to the reception of the Brilish mission at Tehran, shall
have been carried into full effect, the British troops
shall, without delay, be withdrawn from the ports,
places, and islands, belonging to Persia ; but the British
Government engages that, during this interval, nothing
shall be designedly done by the commander of the 2ri-
tish troops to weaken the allegiance of the Persian sub-
jects towards the Shah, which allegiance it ie, on the
contrary, their earnest desire to confirm ; and, further,
the British Government engages that, as far as peoe..eieuvfe.
