The Russian Declaration Of War is re.

MANIFESTO OF HIS MAJESTY
THE EMPEROR. 4
"By the Grace OF God, we, Nicholas l.,
Emperor and Autocret, Of all the Russias,
&c. &c.--The Treaty Of Bucharest, con-
cluded in the year 1919 with the Ottoman
Porte, after having been for sixteen years
the subject Of reiterated disputes, now no
lon! !er subsists, in spite of all our exertions
TO maintain it., and to preserve it from all
attacks. The Porte not satisfied with hav-
ing destroyed the basis of fthat Treaty, now
defics Russia, and prepares to wage a
gainst it Beltum ad iptcraeci0neas "a; it SUM-
monses its people in mass to arms--ac.
cuses Russia of being its irreconciable en-.
emy, and tramples under foot the Conven-
tion Of Akerman, and with that all preced'
ing Treaties.
"Lastly, the Porte does not hesitate to
declare that it accepted the, conditions of
this peace only as a mask TO conceal its in
ten;ions and its Preparations for new war.
Scarcely is this remarkable confession
made, when the rights Of the Russian flag
are violated-thc vessels which it covers
detained--and the cargoes made the prey
of a rapacious and arbitrary government.
Our subjects found themselves compelled
TO break their oath, or leave without delay
hostile country.--The Bosphorus is clos
ed--our trade annihaled --our southern
provinces deprived Of the only channel for
the expectation oftheir produce, are threat.
cned with incalculable injury. Nay more
At the moment when the negotiations be-
tween Russia and Persia are nearly con-
clu1cd, a sudden change on the part Of the
Persian government, checks the course of
them, II soon appears that the Ottoman
Porte exert itself to maker Persia waver,
by promising powerful aid; armng IN haste
the troops in the adjoining Srovinces, and
preparing to support, by threatening ut.
tack, this treacherous hostile language
This is the series Of injuries Of which Tur.
kew has been guilty, from the copclusion
Of the treaty Of Akerman up to this day,
and this is unhappily the fruit Of tho snrifi.
ces and the generous .exertions by which
Russia has necessarily cndeavored TO main.
tain peace with neighboring nation.
"But all patience has its limit. The
honor Of the Russian name--the dignity of
the empro--the inviolability Of its rights,
and that of our national glory, have pre-.
scribod To us the bounds. it.
"It is not till after having weighed in
their fullest extent the duties imposed on
us by imperative necessity, and inspired
with the greatest confidence in the Justice
OF our cause, that we hove ordered our ar.
my to advance. under the Divine protcc.
tlon, against an enemy who violates the |
most sacred obligations Of the law of ma.
