Manifesto OF the Czar or Russia Relative q


The following is very nearly the textual copy Of
the note addressed TO Lord Palmerston by the Rus
sian government, on the question of Naples ana
Tuscany:
NJ do Nesselrods begins by observing, that the oab-
net Of 81 Petersburg completely Identifies itself with
the principles which have served the basis of the
conduct OF the cabinet OF Vienna It Is too much In
terwoven" he says, with the maintenance and inds-
penden the second order and of the tran
guilty Of Italy, not to identity itself without
In the sentiments and political views Of Austria In
virtue of tho principles Of public law understood
IN the Russian policy, 1t never be admitted that
sovereign forced AZ the Grand Duke Of Tuscany has
been by the obstinacy Of his rebelous subjects to
take possession Of points occupied by the Insurgents
shal be bound to make compensation to foreign resi-
ed BY the assault Of the city where rebellion
has been. when people establish themselves in
foreign country no matter where they bound to
accept the chances and the casualties to which such
country may be exposed Leghorn revelted andit be-
II certain English proprietors have shared in
the injury suffered by the propetors natives Of the
the Tuscan refuses to its own subjects p
Such the motives that have induced tho Tuscan
government to address itself to the Emperor de-
standing the lively interest he feels for Tuscany,
has not considered himself bound to acceds
TO this request. II is not account Of a sum
less important In amount, but on prin-
cipls that the Emperor cannot admit even the
idea Of indemnity OF any kind claimed as IektI-
mate right sth less exsoted by force because by do
ing so he would appear to give implicit sanction
by granting his arbitration to both parties in the
-
disposed to enter into conciliatory explanations u
could form part Of the intentions Of the Russian
srrsngen, mt raimaik with the English ,vern ment
But the Emperor has right to expect the justice
and moderation OF the Engsh government tse,f that
wilt not employ for the purpose OF arriving at that
arrangement, any means but those OF an equally con-
cilatory character and the imperial cabinet thinks

Naples TO Tuscany be admitted a precedent,
the result would be optional position TOR all Br
that enjoyed by the native inhabitants OF other
tries while the governments that 50 received ana

establish themselves and where they transport with
their establishments those habits of Industry Of mo-
rality and of order which honorably characterxs
tho English people, their presence would becoms q
perpetual source Of annoyance and in certain cases
inevitable scourge Their presence would become

Every sovereign who by the geographical position of
his territory from his relative weakness would Ls
thus exposed to measures Of coercion from English

strategic measure which may expose English subject~
