aAfer the disastrous battles which have
taken place within The last few DAYS, we can
no longer have any hore OF carrying on 'hc
war of self Defence against the gfea' iorce
which the allied Austrians and Ru'siahs nave
brought into the field. Under these cIfcum
stances, the present and future salvation oil Inc
nation can only be looked for at the hahds OF
the leaders OF its armies; and il IS my flrm per.
suas;ou that the longer duration OF The present
Government, will not only be useless, but even
detrimental. I therefore annouuce to The na-
tion that, inslsated by that pure, patriotic ieci-
ing which induces me TO dedicate my every
measure and M whole life 10 my native coun>
try, |, for myself al in the name Of tho whole
Ministry, lay down the rens Of Government,
and invest General Arthur Gcorgcy with The
supreme civil and military powers as long as
the nation shall not make Use Of lis right 10 dis
pose OF them in another manner. ] expect
from him that he will employ the power vested
in INN, as far cs in his power lies, 10 preserve
The national and political inlcl endencc Of our
poor lsthcrlsad, as well for The present as the
future and for this !, before God, m ke him re-
sponsiblc 10 The nation ard 10 history. May he
done and may he be more fortunate in securing
The happiness Of The na.oa thaa nave becn.-
