During the last four days our city presented truly

the last Imperial manifesto, took the oath OF allegiance
to the Emperor Alexander H. and the hereditary Grand
Duke Nicholas Alexandrowitsch Yesterday the
turn of the Jews who ocked In great numbers for the
same purpose to their synagogues must relate to you
little incident which took place on the occasion. Az
codng 10 the law, every male nhabtant from the age
tweves obliged to allegiance The Catholic clergy
of both worships did not object TO that foraaty; but
the pastor Ludwig General of the Luths-
Church in the kingdom publicly declared Ia the ora

The conduct OF this clergy man has been generally

to st. Petersburg is in that respect most signf-

Emperor, and agreeable messenger could
be selected to express 10 him the affection Of the King
