ARTICLE 111.

The Pruth shall continue to form the limit of the two

empurs, from the point where the river tenches the to
ritory of Moldavia to its junction with the Danube; fro;

that spot the frontier line will follow the course of the
Danube as far as the mouth of St. George's, so, that,
leaving all the islands formed by the different arms of
that river in possession of Russia, the right bank shall
remain, as formerly', in the possession of the Ottoman
Porte. Nevetthrless, it is ',greed that this right bank
shall remain uninhabited from the point where the arm of
the St. Gearge separates itself from that of Souline, to a
distance of two hours from the river, and that no esta-
blishment of any kind shall be formed there, any more
than on the islands which shalLremain in possession of
. .

the G►urt of Russia, where, with the exception of
the quarantines which may be established there, it
shall nut he allowed to make any other establish-
ment or fortifications. The merchant-wssels of the
Powers shall have the liberty of navigating the Danube in
all its course; and those.which hear the Ottoman flag
shall have free entrance i►:to the mouths of Keli and
Souline, that of St. George remaining common to the
ships of war and merchant vessels of the two contracting
powers. But the Russian ships of war, when ascending
the Danube, shall not go beyond the point el its junction
with the Pruth.

ARTICLE IV.

Georgia,lmeritia, Mingrelia, Gouriel, and several otter

provinces of the Caucasus, having been for many years and
in perpetuity united to the empire of Russia, and that em-
pire having besides,- by the treaty concluded with Persia
at Tourkmantchai on the 10th of February, 1828, ac-
quired the Khanats of Erivan and of Nalachivan, the two
high contracting Powers have recognised the necessity of
establishing between their respective States, on the whole
of that line, a well determined frontier, capable of pre-
venting all future discusSion. They have equally tak'n
into consideration the proper means to oppose insurmount-
able obstacles to the incursions and depredations which the
neighbouring tribes hitherto committed, and which have
so often compromised the relations of friendship and good
feeling between the two empires ; consequently it has been
agreed upon to consider henceforward as the frontiers be-
tween the territories of the Imperial Court of Russia, and
those of the :i7ublitne Ottoman Porte in Asia, the lime
which, following the present limit- of the Gouriel from
the Black Sea, ascends as far as the border of Imeritia,
and from thence is the straightest direction as fir as the
point where the frontiers of the Pachaliks of Akhaltzik
and of Ka IN meet those of Georgia, leaving in this man-
ner to the north of and within that line, the town of Ak-
haltzik and the fort of Khallnalick, at a distance of not
less than two hours.

All the countries situate to the south and west of this
line of demarcation towards the Paellaliks of Kars and

Trebisond, together with the major pia of the Pachalik of
Akhalizik, shall remain in perpetuity under the domina-
tion of the Sublime Porte, whilst those which are situated
to the north and east of the said line, towards Georgia,
Imeritia, and the Giuriel, as well as all the littoral of the
Black Sea, from the mouth of the Knuhen as far as the
port of St. Nicholas inclusively, under the domination of
the Emperor of Russia. In consequence the Imperial
Court of Russia gives up and restores to the Sublime
Porte the remainder of the Pachalik of Akhaltzik, the
town and the Pachalik of Kars, the town and the Paella-
lik of Bayazid, the town and Pachalik of Etzeroum, as
well as all the places occupied by the Russian troops, and
which may be out of the abave-teentioned line.
