The festivities of the Coronation were to be cot

•
firmed for three weeks, and nothing but rejoicing was
to he seen in Moscow. It is singular, however, that
the EMPEROR, who was pre-eminently the first in
joy, was the first to have his cup dashed with a
sprinkling of bitterness—by the announcement of
the irruption of. the Persians into the frontiers of his
dominions. His grief or indignation at this unmet-
come episode was further increased by the assurance,
that English uniforms were plentifully seen on the
aggressors. This circumstance may do very well to
give a colour of importance to the affair, but we much
greattiiitgbgre:r—ati2or must evidently be
doubt its truth. The Persians were said to be in
an
force--200,000
men_which.,tter.

Several Journals, French,
Dutch, and German, re-.
peat the current statements, that the conferences be-
tween the Poissian and Turkish Commissioners at
Akermann, silt broken oil; but the lioile distinctly
;1 contra.icts toe truth of these assertions. It,
however,* I
looks upon the incursion of the l'ersians as a serious
matter, and apprehends that important consequences
may result from it at the present conjuncture of affairs
between Russia, Turkey, and greece.

By the last advices from Spain, the defection of
the troops from Olivenza is oonfirmedtbeyond doubt,—
even that unbeliever Fvitni NAND is constrained to
credit the soiTowful account, which he construes ilit°
the notice to take care it what you Are about ---an in

impotence of hie rage, he issues a proclamation de-
nouncing the rebels, whom he orders to be hanged the
moment they fall into his clutches. As far as inten-
tion goes we give FERDINAND credit for exterminat-
ing cruelty to the full measure of vengeance, but,
luckily for humanity, his proclamations are mere words

—the echoes of his vain wishes--without any charac-
ter save folly, and without any other effect save the
exhibition of his weakness. They have no virtue in
effect—and only bear the stamp of Royalty to in-
sure contempt for the degradation into which it has
fallen, ministered by such unworthy hands.

We received this morning the Journal de St.
Petersburgh to the 7th instant, which confirms the
coronation of the Emperor NICHOLAS, to the great
joy of the loyal inhabitants of St. Petersburgh, who
manifested their enthusiasm in the most spontaneous
manner. But the most curious article in this Paper is
the Imperial Manifesto of the EMPEROR, fixing the
right of succession to the Imperial Crown. This do-
cument was framed at St. Petersburgh on the 10th of
July, and published at Moscow on the day of the Coro-
nation. It is singular that the Grand Duke CON.•
STANTINE, though his approbation is said to have
been obtained, is excluded from all share in the
Government in case of a minority. Perhaps he
was considered as no very proper guardian for young
Princes in their questionable situation. The Grand
Duke MICHAEL is appointed prospective guardian of
the future Emperors, for NICHOLAS provides for a
second son should the present die, and in the event of
the present son dying, without a successor, then
MICHAEL is to be Emperor himself. All this sounds
mighty well, but though it may be provident, it is
scarcely prudent, to count the chickens before they
are hatched, especially to the third and fourth genera-

on

MOSCOW, SEPT. 3.
The Imperial Family. was Most agreeably surprised by
the arrival of the Grand Doke Constantine.
The Coronation took place to-day. Her Majesty the
Empress Alexandra felt herself much fatigued by the
length of the ceremony, but we hope, and most sincerely

health. After the coronation nw►nerous Orders were con-
ferred, especially on the Foreign MinisterS.• General
Count Von Biome the Danish Ambassador, received the

The following Imperial Manifesto has been published
here, which was drawn up at St. Petersburgh the 10th of
July :---
"'We, by the Grace of God, Nicholas' Autocrat of
all the Russias, &c. &e.

In the regulations which our father, of glorious memory,
his Majesty the Emperor Paul, laid down on the 16th of
ApriL 1797, respecting the Imperial family, some prin-
ciples are established relative to the succession to the
throne, and rules for 'various possible cases. Among other
things they reserve to the reigning Emperor the right of
appointing a Regent and guardians in case •of his death,
and the minority of his successor. In conformity with
this, and animated by a wish to give our dear country,
upon our accession, the first proof of our .care for the sta-
bility of the laws which insure the, permanent security of
the State, we ordain, with the blessing of our much-be-
loved mother the Empress Maria Feodorowna, and with
the previous approbation of our dear brother the Clesaro-
witsch and Grand Duke Constantine, as follows:
As the days of our life are in the hand of God, we ap-
point, in case of our death, and till the legal majority of the
successor to the tlirone, the Grand Duke Alexander Niko-
lajewitosh our belayed brother the Grand Duke Michael
Pawlowitsch, to be the head of the Government of the
Empire, as well as that a the Kingdom. of Poland, and
the Grand Duchy of Finland, which are inseparable
from it.

Should it please the Almighty, after our death, to take
to himself also our son and heir the Grand Duke Alex-
ander Nikolajewitosh, our next son, should Providence
bestow ono upon us, shall legally succeed to the right of
the eldest, and in this case, as in the first, our beloved
brother the Grand Duke Michael Pawlowitsch shall be ut
the head of the, (:,overnment.

If on our death, and the decease of our successor in his
minority, we should leave no other son, but our beloved
Consort, the Empress Alexandra Feodorowna, be preg:-
nant, our beloved brother, Michael Pawlowitsch, remains
et the head of the Government till the delivery of her Im-
perial Majesty. Should Providence bless her Majesty
with a son, the infant succeeds, according to the rights of
our hereditary Eniperor, and our beloved brother, the
Grand Duke Michael Pawlowitsch, bolds the. Government
till the majority of the young Emperor. . But if her Ma-
jesty should be delivered of a Princess, the rights of our
hereditary Emperor devolve, according to law, on our be-
loved brother,,the Grand Duke Michael Pawlowitsch.
In all the three succeeding cases, the guardianship of all
our children, till they are of age, belongs to our beloved
Consort, the Empress Alexandra Feodorowna, in the man-
onferAdpertinn7in,e7.d by the Imperial family Statute of the .sth
At the same time, that acting
,upon laws formerly issued,
respecting the succession to the throne, and cases of mi.
Tway in the Ithperial family, we establish these rules.
We implore the Supreme Ruler of Princes to take our
Im-
perial house, and our dear country for ever, under His
Almighty and g-Pracious protection.
