MANITZSTO THZ EXPEHOR. the" Whenh af ot beet oabcte rs ocfo my ipoel lelne cde had become the theatre of the most wild and degraded 1 passions, I was still induced to hope that the rebellious infatuation of a portion of the population would not be of a continuance. I was led to expect from the usuallysound judgment of the inhabitants of my capital and residentiary city, they would themselves exert all their energy to restore the honour of the law by the bringing of its transgressors to condign punishmeni, and to restore within the shortest possible time the endangered security of life and property to the city. " This expectation.has been disappointed. Not only have the authors of thq insurrection in Vienna succeeded in retaining the authority which they had forcibly assumed by an act of horror which has but one parallel in history, and of commanding the city which was partly paralysed by fear, and partly in a state of the wildest intoxication, and thereby prevented the return of legal order within the walls of Vienna—nay, even beyond the walls did the influence of their anarchical endeavours extend. " Treasonable cornexions were formed with a neighbouring province; to every part of my states emissaries were sent, under tre pretext of guarding endangered liberty, even were perfect order had prevailed, for the purpose of there planting the standard of rebellion, and abandoning my hitherto peaceful country, which was anticipating the legal development of free institutions, to the horrors of eiiil war, of anarchy, and destruction. " Since my accession to the throne the weal of my people has been the object of my life. The history of my government, the history of the last seven months especially, will at some future day testify to this. " But I should be guilty of unfaithfulness to the sacred duties imposed apon me by Providence were I any longer to tolerate a course of procedure which hurries the throne aid the monarchy to the very brink of ruin, and is calcrlated, in place of the constitutional liberty accorded V me, to bring about a state of unbounded despotism " Impressed Witt these duties, I am compelled, with a bleeding heart, to meet the rebellion which now shamelessly rears its head in my residentiary city, as well as in all other places wherever it may appear, to oppose it by force of arms, and to combat it till it shall have been completely quelled, and the murderers of my faithful servants the Counts Lainberg and Latour are even over to the avenging hand of justice. " For the attainment of this object, I send from divers parts of the monarchy my armies against Vienna, the seat of the insurrection, and by these presents commit to my Field-Marshal Prince Windischgrata the command of all the troops throughout the whole extent of my dominions, with the sole exception of the Italian army, under the command of my Field-Marshal Count Radetaky. " At the same time, I give the Prince the full requisite powers, in order that peace may be restored, according to his own judgment, within theshortest possible time.  " After subduing the armed rioters and restoring peace, it will be the task of my Ministers, in unison with the members of the Constituent Diet, to bring about, by legal regulations respecting the hitherto licentiously abused press, the right of association and popular armament, a state of things which, without infringing liberty, shall secure authority and respect of the laws.  " Whilst in the fall consciousness of my duties and my rights, I hereby make known to my people these my unalterable fixed resolutions. I depend upon the sincere and energetic support of all those who have the weal of their Emperor, of their country, of their families, and of true liberty at heart, that they will recognize in these my present resolutions the only remedy of securing the monarchy from dismemberment and themsel►es from the horrors ofanarchy and the rupture of all social bonds.
