SATtttttteYy Apriiafflpff ME BTJSSIAST-DlECtABATfiDlsr OP VT&Bt . The-Emperor has issued bis , declaration of war . It is published in a supplement to the Journal of ? St Petersburg , of the 13 th of April , and . opens in this

latter was the first to declare ^ whilst actively , carrying on offensive operations , when its own troops occupy a fortified point of Russian territory—was already a cohaitibii inadmissible inusubstance ; The- two Powers 5 wished tbatr in form it should bcoonuv still- more inacceptable . They liked a term of siac days for the adhesion' of the Imperial Cabinet , at the expiration of . which a refusal , or the absence of any reply whatever , was to be by them regarded as equivalent to a declaration of war . T 6 > a sumrrtons so partial in its'tenbr ^ as practicall y inexcusable u » it was insulting in its terms , silence was the only reply compatible with the dignity of the Emperor . Consequently , the two Governments have just publicly made known that Russia , by lier refusal to accede to their demand , has constituted herself towards them in a state of war , the entire responsibility of which will rest upon her .
" In the presence of such declarations it only remains for the Emperor to accept tlio situation which has been made him , reserving to himself to employ all the means which Providence has put in his hands to defend with energy and conatancy the lionour , independence , and safety of his empire . " The declaration then proceeds to argue and to combat the declarations and allegations of the Western Powers , while at the Qflme time it disclaims all intention of renewing the exhausted polemic . All concessions are clainvcd to have been made by Russia , nil " disastrous pro-vocations" are referred to the Western Powers .
" The occupation of Lho Principalities , which ia taken now , apres coup , as a pretext for tlio war , did not prevent the opening of" nogotiationti . It would not have nny more prevented their continuiition . or rather these negotiations would have led to something long since , if tho Powers had not suddenly , without any gooJ reason , completely
