announced to out people tharwe had just ascended the
throne, is known in all'its details by the accounts which
we have caused to be published of it.
" dt the moment when die first bodies of the State,
all the civil and military functionaries, the people, the
troops, were unanimously taking to us the oath of obe-
dience and fidelity, and, assembled in the temples of
the Lotto, were invoking the D:vine blessing on our
reign, a.handful of factious persons,.opposing this na-.
.tiond act, d.tred to brave the laws, authority, military
discilaite, and persuasion. To dispor•e this troop of
. rebels it was necessary to employ fo•ce. Such, in a
few words, is the whole of this event. Little imyortant
in itself, it is but too much so horn its origin and its
consequences. Bur whatever grief they may cause us.
we find in them the impenetrab:e ways of PROVIDENCE,
who punishes evil, and from that evil itself causes good
to proceed.
" On the mere sight n' the first results of the inqu!ry
into the troubles of the 26th, in the assemblage which
produced them two classes of men are recognized.—
The first were only misled; they were ignorant of the
' plat; the others, real conspirators, served as their guides.
" What did those misled meta int-•nd ?—To preset ve
the faith of their oaths. Every artifice had been em
• played to make them believe that they were defen.ling
the thi one ; and under the empire of this idea, they were
unable to listen to any other persuasion.
4. What did the conspirators intend? The sacred
words of fidiity, oath, legitimate utter, even the none
of the Cesatowitsch and the Grand Duke Constantine,
were for them only a preteit for treason. They wished
to profit by the moment to accomplish their criminal
designs—designs long contrived, lung meditated, long
matured in dam bless, and the mystery of whiCh the
Government had penetrated only in part. They intended
to cast down the throne and the laws-s—to overturn the
empire—to produce anarchy.
" What were their means? Assassination. Their first
victim was the Military Governor Count Milorado•
witsch. He, whom in the field of honour, the chance
• of war had spared in fifty battles, has fallen under the
hand of an assassin. This nierder is not the only one.
Count Smiler, commander of the regiment of Grena-
diers of the Body Guard, killed; Major!Generals
Schenschin and niedericks, and others, severely
wounded, have sealed with their blood their fidelity to
honour and to duty.
" Hurried in the tumult, the soldiers of the com-

panics that were seduced did not participate in these
crimes, either in act or intention. A rigorous inquiry
has given me the proof of this, and I consider it as a
first act of justice. as well as my first consolation, to
declare them innocent.

" Bit the same justice forbids us to spare the guilty.
An those against whom proceedings are instituted, and
who shall be convicted, till undergo a punishment pro-
portioned to their crimes.
" From the measures already taken in the proceed,
ings, the puoishment will embrace in its whole extent-
in all its ramifications, an evil, the germ of which is of
the growth of years, and I am confident they will destroy
it to the very root; they will purge of this foreign con-
tagion the sacred s ill of Russia; they will cause to
disappear that odious mixture of melancholy truths end
gratuitous suspicions which is repugnant to noble
minds; they will draw for ever a decisive and inef-
faceable line of demarcation between love of country and
revoltrionary passions—between the desire of improve.
ment and the rage of convulsions—they ss jll shew to
the world that the. Russian nation, always faithful to its
Soiereign and to the la*s, repels the secret efforts of
anarchy, as it has repelled the open attacks of its de-
clared enemies—they will shew how people may.free
themselves from such a scourge—they will prove that
it is not everywhere indestructible.
" We have the hope and the right to expect these
salutary results, from the attachment which all classes
of our subjects shew to us and to our throne. • Even at
the time of the events of the 26th, we found, with joy
and with gratitude, in the inhabitants of the capital, as
much aff:ction as zeal; in the troops, the most impa-
tient desire to chastise the revolt at the first signal of
the Al.march ; in dish. Officers, the most sincere devo-
tedness, inspited by a profound feeling of love to us,
and by trrie honour..

" Among them wat distinguished Count Milora-
d la it ch, an inti ei.id soldier, an able Captain, an Offi-
cer constantly loved, terrible in war, gentle in peace, in
his administrati,:n tirll of justice, zealous in fulfi ling the
orders of his Sovereign, a devoted son of the Church,
an►d of the courary, I.e has fallen under the blow of a
cowardly and perfidious hand, far from the fields
o 1 battle; but he has fallen faithful to his duty, and his
memory is imperishable iu the annals of Russia..

•• Given at Si.- Petersburgh, the 21st December, in the
year of grace 1825, and the first of our reign.

The intelligence received through various foreign
Journals, from St. Petersburgh, comes up to the 4th
instant, and is of great importance. It appears that
the Emperor NICHOLAS is decidedly called to the
Throne by the law of the land. A document is pub-
lished, under the hand of the Cesarovitch CONSTAN•
TINE, dated the 20th December, which no doubt is the
declaration alluded loin the manifesto of the EMPEROR,
on asseming the diadem, it is in answer to an address
sent to the Grand Duke, after his having been pro.
claimed as EMPEROR, disclaiming the title, referring to
the will of ALEXANDER, which had settled the succes-
sion on NICHOLAS, and reminding the public autho.
/Hies of their oath of allegiance to the late EMPEROR,
which included also an oath of fidelity to such person
as should be designated his successor. This clearly
establishes the position which we laid down a few days
Age, from the history of the Empire, thlt in Itoessia
131 IMOgt111: ure confers no title to the Throne, except in
he absence of any designation to the contrary by the
edict or will of the reigning Sovereign. For it will
have appeared by our statement, that iut of fourteen!
