Poland and Constantinople; it has Poland': it must de-

IMPERIAL MANIFESTO.
We, by the Grace of Goo, Nicholas i, Emperor and
Autocrat of all the Hussies, Btc. die.
The preservation of the peace which Russia has en-
joyed was always the chief object of our it:lees:eat care;
and, thanks to the ALMIGHTY, our efforts have hitherto
not been in vain. By the sudden invasion of the Per-
sians, tranquillity was first disturbed on our frontier be.
yond Mount Caucasus. But repelling force by force.,
we joyfully embraced the first opportunity to put an
end to the war. A glorious and golid peace confirms
in those countries the security ot our empire; but -on'
,ths other side, tbechtoll32/1 Poets threatens Russia with
woe. and even a war of extermination, which it has-long
had In contemplation, and which it .seeks to make go-I
astral by summoning all its subjects to rise in a body
under the banner of its faith.
In our Manifesto herewith issoed, which announces
to our faithful subjects these threats aod,their inevitable
consequences, we have thought fit to give a due exten-
sion to our military force, in order, by the aid of Goad
not only to meet this war with energy, but also to con-
done it with firmness, if, contrary to all ezpectatioo,
and notwithstanding she moderation of our principle*.
.the obstinacy Rf .thf quel y should raid* its duration
isaavoidable.,

Govern is of Cherson, Ekaterinalaw, Pullawa,
Ukrains4 Brew, and Podolia, which six Governments
being nearer the seat of war, will have to furnish sup
plies in kind for the army (to be deducted from tbeit
tales), and therefore that the inhabitants *nay not be
dispropottionahly burdened, they shall deliver only one
recruit out of 500 men; the levies to commence on the.
Ist (13th) June, this year, and must be completed in two
months.' The recruits must not be under 18 or above
35 years of age.)
The division of the Imperial Guards, nearly 30,000
strong (with the exception Of the 3d battalion and di-
vibions ofithe First Reserve Corps of the Cavalry, which
are to reinforce the' second Army) set out on the Ist
(13th) (4 April. They march in two columps on the
road to Krew and Chistomer : the left column is com-
posed of Infantry and Artillery, and the iighc of the'
remaining Infantry and the Light Cavalry; each co.
lumn being diyided into eight divisions, the last of which'
left this city on the 27th April.
These troops, composed of the flower of the Guards,
the battalions and squadrons being at their full coma
plemeni, with an admirable train of artillery and a 'bat-
tery of Congrove rockets, presented the finest military,
spectacle that can be conceived. The Emperor. aro
tompanied by the Prince of Orange and _Prince Wil-
liam of Prussia, reviewed each detachment befote-ii
marched out of the city, led it to the other side of the
barriers, and copdescended to address some words ofl
encouragement, which were answered by all those breve
men with acclamations of attachment to his Majesty's
person. Their Majesties the Empresses alio conde-
scended to take leave of each Regiment. The troops,
with his Imperial Highness the Grand Duke Michael
at their head, and the • Her*ditary Grand Duke at the
flank of 'be Regiinent of which he is the Chief, accom-
panied by their whole suite, filed off rapidly before the
Emperor and Empresses, and. proceeded on the way to
their destination with the exalted feelings inseparable
from the soundness 'of the Cause which they are called
on to defend.

Gaulle/from Peking, four days later than our last
accounts, announce a third victory over the Mahom-1
wed= rebels. - After the preceding defeat, in which,
by the official accounts, between 40 and 50,000 were
:lain and taken prisoners, the enemy again collected"
the di ashes" of his former army—the embers or the
residue, to the amount of more than 100,000 men, who
ranged themselves na the mountains in the torm of two
wings, near the village of Wapah-tili.
Chang-ling divided his forces into two wings, who,
,at one beat of the drum, advanced. The rebel thieves'
maintained their advantageous position. Our troops
assaulted them vigorously with musketry and cannon.
The rebels feigned a retreat. -Our troops kept up an
uninterrupted fire with the wind in their favour. The
rebel horse dashed through fire and smoke to the at-
oramd tits vicuna troops, !Rs-.

tinguished as tiger with shield in hand,. to iidvatieet,,
then the enemy's b4rses took fright and fell itito coo•,,
fusion.
The rebels brought forward a division of reserve, clad
in crimson garments.; but they were anticipated by
ditr;sion of ours previously stationed behind the village,
who put them to the route. Between 20 and 30.000 of
the enemy fell, with some of their principal leadeia.
