FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Gazette de France, of Sunday.)

PARIS, Arum 19.—We find the following article in the
Journal du Commerce:—

" The Committee of the Chamber of Deputies, which
is to examine the project of law on the periodical press,
met yesterday. It is affirmed that it has resolved to admit
before it the proprietors and editors of journals, and to
hear their observations. In the year 1827 the Committee
of the Chamber of Peers received deputations from the
booksellers, printers, and journalists, and passed several
sittings in listening to their remonstrances, respecting the
law on the press. The Noble Members encouraged them
freely to give their opinions on the inconveniences of the
project, and to propose their views, and they were pleased
to say that their conferences had not been without utility
to the Committee in its deliberations."

A letter from Marseilles, of the 13th inst., says, that
the first chips, making a part of the convoy from the west,
have arrived in that port.

burgh, of the Zith of April.)

MANIFESTO OF HIS MAJESTY THE EMPEROR.

"By the Grace of God, We, Nicholas 1., Emperor and
Autocrat of the Russian, &c. &c. d&c. .

" The Almighty has again poured down blessings on
Russia, by terminating by a glorious peace the war with
Persia, the commencement of which gave reason to appre-
hend that it would be of long duration.
" It was in the midst of friendly negotiations, and when
positive assurances gave us the hope of preserving the rela-
tions of good neighbourhood with Persia, that the tran-
quillity of our people was disturbed on the frontiers of Cau-
casus, and' that a sudden invasion violated the territory
of the Emperor, in contempt of solemn treaties. It was
then necessary to repel force by force. Obliged to pursue
the enemy through a country without roads, laid waste by
the troops which were to have defended it—often opposed
by nature itself—exposed to the burning sun of summer,
and the rigours of winter—our brave army, after unparal-
leled efforts, succeeded in conquering Erivan, which was
reported impregnable. It passed the Araxes, planted its
standards on the top of Ararat, and, penetrating further
and further into the interior of Persia, it occupied Tabriz
itself, with the country depending on it. The Khanate
of Erivan, on both sides of the Araxes, and the Khanate
of Nakhitehevan, a part of the ancient Armenia, fell into
the hands of the conquerors. ,
" But in the course of these rapid conquests the Rus-
sians acquired glory of another kind. In the midst of a
war, the enemy's country became the theatre of their
valour, and the safety of persons, and all kinds of property,
remained as sacred and inviolable to them as if they had
been in profound peace in the country of an ally. Humane,
mild, and generous, their conduct has surrounded the Rus-
sian name with a splendour superior to that which victory
beetairs.
"It is thus that in eight months, after the entrance of
our troops into the Persian territory, decisive exploits and
important results have crowned our arms ; their success
has demonstrated that PROVIDENCE defended our just
cause. Covered by its mighty eyes, and considering peace
as the greatest of blessings, Russia will never suffer it to be
disturbed without inflicting on the aggressor just and severe
chastisement. The road to new triumphs was open before
as, but the moment that peace which we so highly value
was possible, our only wish was to conclude. _

" Our object was to secure to the empire a natural and
strong barrier on the side of Persia ; to obtain a complete
indemnity for all the losses occasioned by the war, and
thus to remove all the causes which might lead to its return.
" Such, in fact, are the bases on which a Treaty of Per-
petual Peace was concluded and signed on the 10th (22d)
February at Tourkmantchai, between Russia and Persia,
the publication of which accompanies the present Manifesto.
" For us, one of the principal results of this peace con.
sists in the security which it gives to one part of our fron-
tiers. It is solely in this light that we consider the utility
of the new countries which Russia has just acquired.
Every part of onr conquests that did not tend to this end
was restored, by our orders, as soon as the conditions of
the treaty were published.
" Other essential advantages result frem the stipulations
in favour of commerce, the free development of which we
have always considered as axe of the most influential
causes of industry, and, at the same time, as the true gua-
rantee of a solid peace, founded on an entire reciprocity of
wants and interests.

" To Him who regulates the fates of empires the humble
tribute of our profound gratitude belongs. Let all our dear
and Taithful subjects, after acknowledging the striking
proofs of the favour and protection of the MOST HIGH
in the events of this war, offer up their most fervent prayers
at the foot of the altars. May this peace—the work of
PROVIDENCE—be firm and durable, and may His hely
will assist us in preserving tra❑quillity on the frontiers of
our dominions !

" Given at St. Petersburgh, the 21st March (2d April),
in the year of our Lord 1828, and in the third of our
Reign.
(Signed) " NICHOLAS.
(Countersigned) " Count de NESSELRODE."

Here follows the Treaty of Peace, in 16 Articles, the
preamble of which recites the reciprocal wishes of the
Emperor of Russia and the Padischah of Persia for the re-
storation of peace, and for which end Planipotentiaries are
named—viz. General Paskewitsch and the Councillor of
State Alexander Obrescoff on the part of Russia, and
Prince Abbas 31irza on the part of Persia :
" Ist. There shall be perpetual peace, friendship, &c.
" 2d. The Treaty of Gulcstan to be dissolved, and re-
placed by the present.
3d. Persia cedes the Khanate.of Erivan, on either side
of the Araxes, and the Khanate of Nakhitchevan ; and all
the public documents connected with those two provinces
shall be delivered within six months.

" 4th. Details, with great minuteness, the future iron-
tier line between the two empires. It begins at the point
of the Ottoman States, the nearest to Little Ararat, and
crosses that mountain to the source of the Lower Karas—
son, follows the source of that river, till it falls into the
Araxes opposite Cherour, and then follows the course of
the latter river as far as to the fortress Abbas-Abad.

" This fortress, situated on the right bank, together with
the surrounding country to the extent of three wersts and
a half, is to belong to Russia. The frontier line then
again f:,llows the course of the Araxes as far as twenty-
cane wersts beyond the ford of Jedihoulouk, from which
point a straight line is to be drawn across the plai❑ of
Monghaw to the bed of the river Bolgarou, twenty-one
wersts above the point of confluence of the two rivers
Odinabazar and Sarakainyche. The line then passes across
the summit of Djikoir, so that all waters falling into the
Caspian belong to Russia, and continues to cross the sum-
mit of other mountains, observing the above principle,
relative co rivers falling into tke Caspian, to the source
of the river Artara, the course of which, as it falls into
the Caspian, completes the whale line of frontier.

" sth. The Shah confirms the above line of frontier.

" 6th. Persia to pay an indemnity of 20,000,000 rubles.
" 7th. Prince Abbas Mirza is recognised as heir apparent
to the throne of Persia.

" Bth. The Russians to enjoy the free navigation of the
Caspian. The Persians to enjoy the same sur rancien
pied ; Russia alone to have armed vessels on the same.
" 9th. Ambassadors to be received by both parties with
all due honours.

" 10th, 1 1 th, 12th, and 13th, regulate the nomination
of Consuls, and the transfer of private property, as also a
mutual enlargement of prisoners.
" 14th. No deserters to be given up by either party.
" lath. An amnesty to be awarded by Persia to the In-
habitants of the province of Adzerbaidjane, and, if they
should be inclined to emigrate into Russia, a period of one
year is to be allowed them for the disposal of all moveable
property, and a period of five years for the disposal of lands.
" 16th. The ratification of this Treaty to be exchanged
within the space of four months."
The St. Petersburgh Journals contain no other news.
