As proof that the great landowners of Russia
fully participated in the warlike measures OF the
late Emperor Nicholas. they forwarded him an adj
dress, a few days before his death, in which they
profered him their united assistance. But being
too weak TO receive the deputation, he desired
Alexander to convey to them his expressions Of
gratitude.
Two days after the death Of his father the pres
