Faithful and capable management

Light for Russian jews.

An important law which will miti-

Jews have been subjected in Russia
for years past has been prepared at
the ministry of the interior at st.
Petersburg Jews living in villages
and towns situated within the western
frontier zone, which has breadth of
fifty versts, will have the right of con-
tinuing to reside there; whereas the
law now in force deprives them of this
privilege unless they settled in their
present abodes prior to October 81,
1855. The new scheme is to be dis
cussed during the next session of the
council of the empire. Meanwhile the
provincial government have been in
structed to suspend the expulsions of
Jews The projected discussions will
extend to any decree of expulsion that
may already have been issued or have
become operative.
