His Imperial Majesty announces his highest blessing. Attachments documents and memories

Mikhail G [deenishchev] -Kutuzov.

N.P. Panin - A.B. Kurakin.

[…] Like you, my dear cousin, I am aware of the difficulty of choosing a person to be my assistant. As a result, I had a thought, which I submit to your opinion. Since they want to give a preliminary order to General Kutuzov, is there no way to dwell on it and leave him here for some time?

I confess that I prefer it to quite a few. He is smart, with ability, and I find he and I have a similarity in views. If someone else is sent, we will waste precious time studying each other and, so to speak, combining our opinions. Another of the main reasons is that [Kutuzov] was successful at court and in society.

They are more accessible to the old warrior here than to anyone else, and with this benefit he combines another one: he knows the German language perfectly, which is necessary. Finally, I repeat, I think that he will be more useful than the other and that we will always get along with him. […]

General of Infantry Kutuzov.

The secondment of your quartermaster here for the regimental needs, without first receiving My permission, is attributed by Me to no other than your whims, for which I am reprimanding you.

Lieutenant General Wrangel presented to me in the 1st report that when he learned that the regiment named after him, Captains Kashin and Levitsky in the companies commanded by them had taken considerable sums of money from the lower ranks and although they were later paid in full and subordinates had no complaints, they were audacious such an act can not remain in silence, and therefore I dare to submit to Your Imperial Majesty about these, as completely unreliable for the service, to present.

General of Infantry Golenishchev-Kutuzov.

Resolution: "Captains Kashin and Levitsky of the Garrison Wrangel 1st Regiment for taking large sums of money from the lower ranks, as an example to others, are excluded from service with deprivation of all ranks."

M.I. Kutuzov - P.G. Divov.

February 1800. Vilno.

Seeing from foreign newspapers and information I received from St. Petersburg that a pestilence plague opened up in France, where it spread to the borders of Strasbourg, which I think is not unknown to you, I urge you, my dear sir, to humbly ask if there is anything more than aspirations, why yes the Almighty will save us, that disastrous disease has touched the borders of Prussia, not to leave a hasty notification, so that I can take appropriate measures in advance to protect the province entrusted to me from this infection by strict inspection of people passing from abroad to Lithuania and imported goods. Here you will lend a great deal to one who is abiding with true reverence forever:

Mikhaila Golenishchev-Kutuzov.

From the report delivered to me from the Novogrudok governor of the court councilor Skalon, I saw that from among those who were there for the cure of the Verkhovsky Muskaters left by the muskaters, that now the Baklanovsky regiment of lower ranks 18 died 12 people; I instruct the medical board, therefore, to carry out a proper and most accurate study, from which such a number of the dead from only a small number followed and whether there was in the use and care, which should have been used for the sick, from someone's side of the omission, what, in this way, would turn out to be conveyed to me.

From the Highest Order.

His Imperial Majesty, in His presence in the city of Gatchina, deigned to give the following order.

His Imperial Majesty announces His Highest blessing to the former troops on maneuvers and to the commanders of these, General of Infantry Golenishchev-Kutuzov and General of the Cavalry Count von der Pahlen, as well as to all battalion commanders; a pound of beef per person; and, moreover, they deigned to declare to the Highest that it is very comforting for His Imperial Majesty to see the achievements of an army of such perfection, in which it showed itself in all units under the command of such generals, whose qualities and talents, acting with such troops and such a nation as the Russian one, cannot but approve and not ensure the security and integrity of the state.

“Until now I have hesitated to publish my notes about Rasputin. I did not want to touch upon the events that are fatally connected with the reign of the martyred Emperor Nicholas II. To avoid serious disappointments and mistakes in the future, you need to know the mistakes

of the past: to know the truth of yesterday. As a close witness to some of the events of this yesterday, I would like to tell about them everything that I saw and heard. For this, I decided to overcome in myself that painful feeling that rises in my soul with close contact with the past, especially when remembering its terrible denouement in the basement of the Ipatiev House. When Rasputin stood like a black shadow near the throne, all of Russia was indignant. The best representatives of the highest clergy raised their voices to defend the Church and the Motherland from the encroachments of this criminal rogue. The Tsar and Empress were begged to remove Rasputin from those closest to the Royal family.

It was all to no avail. His dark influence was strengthening more and more, and along with this, dissatisfaction in the country grew more and more, penetrating even the most remote corners of Russia, where ordinary people sensed with a true instinct that something was wrong at the heights of power.

And therefore, when Rasputin was killed, his death was met with general jubilation. "

[...] On the 23rd, I, Most Merciful Empress, sent out a search over the enemy for the lieutenant-general and knight of Count Musin-Pushkin with seven infantry battalions, including two thousand eight hundred and fifty men under arms, while I myself was left with two infantry battalions and cover his rear with two cavalry regiments so as not to be cut off.

Meanwhile, the Turks, separating from their main camp at Alushta, according to the assurances of the prisoners, seven or eight thousand, took a very firm position four miles from the sea, in front of the village of Shumoy, in a very advantageous place, on both sides of which there were steep stone rapids reinforced with retransfers ... As soon as the troops of Your Imperial Majesty led their attack with two squares, they were met with the most severe of cannons and rifles fire.

The enemy, taking advantage of the convenience of the place and the superiority of forces, defended himself from retransfers with such stubbornness that for more than two hours, when both squares, leaning forward in impassable paths, acquired every step with blood, the strongest firing from both sides of the guns and rifles did not stop.

Upon approaching both retransmissions, the lieutenant-general Count Musin-Pushkin, whose courage and zeal for the service of Your Imperial Majesty are known, ordered, taking the enemy with bayonets, to make his way into the retransmission, which was done on the left side, where the strongest resistance was the Moscow Legion grenadier battalion under its own leadership of the brave lord Major General and Knight Jacobius, on the other second, Major Shipilov, reinforced from Colonel Liebholt so successfully that the Turks, feeling these defeats of the troops of Your Imperial Majesty that struck them, rushed headlong to Alushta, batteries and being driven to their vast camp on the shore standing [...]

The number of the beaten enemy probably cannot be known, because their bodies were thrown in the abysses and between the stones, but more than three hundred corpses remained on the spot; taken prisoner: one bayraktar and two ordinary Turks, four cannons and several banners. Of all the troops of Your Imperial Majesty killed: non-commissioned officers, corporals and privates of various ranks, thirty-two.

Wounded: of the Moscow Legion, Lieutenant Colonel Golenishchev-Kutuzov, who led his grenadier battalion, composed of new and young people, to such perfection that in dealing with the enemy he was superior to the old soldiers. This headquarters officer was wounded by a bullet, which, hitting him between the eye and the temple, went out into the flight in the same place on the other side of the face. […]

I found his whole institution here very decently, just as the fortification of the local castle is very well arranged, so with the help of God we can hope that at this post, under the leadership of him, Mr. Major General and Knight Golenishchev-Kutuzov, in the event of an enemy attack, everything will go with the desired success.

His patients, who disturbed Your Lordship, now, thank God, are recovering much and very few of them remain difficult.

There is no news of the enemy here.

General Prince Repnin.

Doctor Stage, examining the patients, was sent back to Elisabeth. He gave doctors sufficient instructions on the treatment of patients. I, using his advice, will change according to the ability of some doctors for the hospital, who were with the battalions.

Closeness [is], of course, not a small obstacle to the recovery of the weak. Now, until some time, I cannot give another help, as I will send all patients with coronary diseases to the General Elisavetgrad hospital.

However, he does not find their lack of content, they have good wheat and orzhan bread, all kinds of cereals, beef, chicken for some sick people, grape wine, hot wine, vinegar, kvass and milk; those who have recovered, although they are discharged in due time, are not used in any work.

But in spite of all this, I will redouble my attention and try to find more ways.

Major General Golenishchev-Kutuzov.

[...] This part (single training in target shooting. - A. Sh.) In all battalions has a very weak start, and one cannot doubt its success, if you try and throw away the old warning that you cannot learn how to shoot a Russian soldier can; to look after lazy and ignorant officers prudently, so that during this training, time is not wasted, and suddenly no more corporality should be withdrawn in the company, so that each huntsman will slowly show what he should notice, and for better success, you can also entrust this to a subaltern officer, if he is a knowledgeable company commander, and especially selected craftsmen, who can be entrusted, if it is reasonable, to one officer in the battalion.

In each company of the best shooters from 20 to 30 people have selected and recorded, which in such a case will be especially used. By the art and the number of these people, one can recognize the suitability of a company commander.

Do not do a lot of techniques; to teach without empty knocking and so that the gun would not endure from it; this has long been prescribed from me.

Do not miss teaching the gamekeepers to act in a placer, according to the instructions given from me before, choosing the most uneven places for this ...

G.A. Potemkin to Catherine II

Most Merciful Empress!

After making two batteries against Ochakov on the left flank of the army, while laying the same one with communication lines on the right side in front of the gardens, at a distance close to the city, on the 17th of this month the Turks made a strong sortie to the last. They attacked the cover made up of jaeger battalions, and the battle between them continued under fierce battery fire for more than four hours.

The enemy, taking advantage of the inequality of the place, filled with ditches, stood desperately, but everywhere he was broken and turned to flight, having suffered damage up to five hundred wounded and killed. Jaegers acted in this case with unparalleled fearlessness, and the Turks, regardless of the advantage of the place, were forced to flee everywhere. Meanwhile, from the brutal operation of the batteries, the city was ignited in many places, and the fire continued until the morning.

On our side, the damage consists of two killed captains, Ushakov and Zubatov, two corporals, twenty-eight huntsmen and one gunner. Injured: the chief of the Bug Jaeger Corps, Major General and Cavalier Golenishchev-Kutuzov, Lieutenant Skaloy, lieutenants Kumkin and Shurman, one sergeant, one corporal, one hundred and ten gamekeepers and three gunners.

All the most subservient, informing Your Imperial Majesty about this enemy's assassination attempt, which served his own harm, I plunge myself at your illuminated feet.

Your Imperial Majesty's most loyal subject, Prince Potemkin-Tavrichesky.

Catherine II - G.A. Potemkin.

Come, perhaps, from me to visit, what is Major General Kutuzov, I am very sorry about his wounds. […]

All mercifully bestowed upon you the Order of St. Anne, while transmitting, I hope that this sign of the highest benevolence towards you will serve to aggravate the jealousy and zeal that guided you in your exploits for the benefit of the service of Her Imperial Majesty.

Staying there with great respect.

G.A. Potemkin M.I. Kutuzov.

My dear sir Mikhaila Larionovich. Her Imperial Majesty was pleased with the most merciful respect for your diligent service, your joy and excellent serviceability in the performance of your entrusted welcome to you as a Knight of the Order of St. Vladimir of the Grand Cross of the second degree. I, transmitting to Your Excellency the signs of this order, so that you have them entrusted to yourself according to the establishment, I hope that this Monarch's mercy will be a new incentive to distinguish yourself with new feats.

I have the honor to be, with special respect, Your Excellency, my dear sir, a humble servant.

Potemkin-Tavrichesky.

Ishmael remains the nest of the enemy, and although the communication is interrupted by the flotilla, he still knits hands for distant enterprises. My hope is in God and in your courage.

Hurry, my gracious friend!

According to my order to you, your personal presence there will unite all the parts. There are many generals of the same rank, and from that always comes a kind of indecisive. Ribas will benefit you in everything, both in terms of enterprise and diligence. You will be satisfied with Kutuzov too; look at everything and order, and pray to God, undertake. There are weak points, if only they walked together, give Prince Golitsyn guidance, when God helps, he will go higher.

The most faithful friend and most humble servant is Prince Potemkin-Tavrichesky.

My dear friend, Katerina Ilinishna.

Thank God I am healthy and yesterday I wrote to you with Lutsenkov that I was not wounded and God knows how. I will never see such a thing. Hair stands on end. Yesterday until the evening I was very cheerful, seeing myself alive and such a terrible city in our hands, and in the evening I came home, as in the desert. Ivan St. and Glebov, who lived with me, were killed, whoever I ask in the camp either died or is dying. My heart sank with blood and burst into tears.

The whole evening I was alone, and besides there was so much trouble that I cannot look after the wounded; it is necessary to put in order a city in which there are more than 15 thousand Turkish bodies. Talk about sad things fully. How to see you, my friend; these days I will see what is possible, me to you or you to me. […]

I will tell you that for all the horrors that I saw, I bought cheap horses incomparable, by the way, one for 160 rubles a dun, like a gold one, for which the Turks in October asked me for 500 rubles. This Turk then went to negotiations. […]

I cannot assemble the corps, there are almost no living officers left. You and the children will not be angry with me that I have not sent gifts yet, you do not see absolutely such things as they were in Ochakov, so that everything was in the hands of the military.

Blessing for children. True friend:

Mikhail G [deenishchev] -Kutuzov.

[…] From the 10th to the 11th, at three o'clock in the morning, all the troops set out in organized columns to the points assigned to them, and the flotilla sailed to the designated places to the Danube. And at five and a half o'clock, all the columns, both from the dry road and by water, set out to attack [...]

From the left wing, under the presence of Mr. Lieutenant-General and Cavalier Samoilov, the sixth column under the command of Major General and Cavalier Golenishchev-Kutuzov simultaneously with the first and second columns, having overcome all the hard fire of canister and rifle shots, reached the ditch, where Brigadier Rybopier put down his belly. Soon, going down into the moat, she climbed the stairs to the rampart, despite all the difficulties, and took possession of the bastion.

The worthy and brave Major General and Cavalier Golenishchev-Kutuzov, with his courage, was an example to his subordinates and fought with the enemy. But the multitude of this stopped for the first moment the spread along the shaft and for this he called up the Kherson regiment, the former in reserve, leaving two hundred people with cannons on the contras-carp. [Counter-escarpment.] With the arrival of the reserve, the enemy was not only repelled, but also beaten by a noble part. Firm in that line [So in the original, the country should be read.] The foot was set and the troops stretched the victory along the curtain to other bastions [...]

The fierce battle, which continued inside the fortress, after six hours and a half with the help of God, finally decided to a new glory in Russia. The courage of the chiefs, the jealousy and agility of the headquarters and chief officers and the unparalleled courage of the soldiers won a perfect surface over the numerous enemy, who was desperately defending himself, and in the afternoon the victory adorned our weapons with new laurels [...]

I make it my duty to testify to the courage and bravery of the colonial leaders and to ask them for their heroic deeds, labors and victory. Major General and Cavalier Golenishchev-Kutuzov showed new experiences of his art and courage, overcame all difficulties under heavy enemy fire, climbed the rampart, took possession of the bastion, and when an excellent enemy forced him to stop, he, serving as an example of courage, held his place, overcame the strong enemy, established himself in the fortress and then continued to defeat enemies. […]

From the list of those who distinguished themselves in the capture of Ishmael.

... Column leaders.

Major General and Cavalier Golenishchev-Kutuzov showed new experiences of his art and courage, overcoming all difficulties under heavy enemy fire, climbed onto the rampart, took possession of the bastion, and when an excellent enemy forced him to stop, he, serving as an example of courage, held the place, overcame the strong enemy, established himself in the fortress and then continued to defeat enemies.

M.I. Kutuzov - N.V. Repnin

On the fourth of this month, with the help of the Almighty, I had the good fortune to defeat the noble corps of the enemy under the command of Akhmet Serasker of the Trebunchuzhny, who had with him the Trebunchuzhny Zhurn-oglu, the former chief in Khotin, and the two-bunchuzh Kurd Osman Pasha and Dagir arnaut-i-khan, im Bakhti Girey with five sultans, having all the Nekrasovites and unfaithful Cossacks with him.

The whole fortified camp, where nature and a certain degree of art multiplied the obstacles, fell to us as prey, eight new cannons and several banners. The enemy, who received reinforcements on the 2nd, fought against fifteen thousand Turks and about one thousand two hundred belonging to the Khan; the loss of his killed extends to one thousand five hundred people, including many noble officials; the wounded could be saved up to thirty people, for the Cossacks pursuing the enemy, not even burdening themselves with prisoners, did not give mercy. In Babad, their large stores were destroyed, about thirty thousand quarters and a supply of gunpowder.

In this case, our damage is very small and consists almost entirely of the Cossacks.

I have now arrived at Tulcea.

Lieutenant General Golenishchev-Kutuzov.

I have the honor to convey this with my duty Major Alfimov, whom I praise for his work in this matter before Your Excellency.

Mikhail Golenishchev-Kutuzov.

Catherine II M.I. Kutuzov.

Your diligent service, brave and courageous deeds, with which you distinguished yourself in the battle at Machin and the defeat by Our troops under the command of General Prince Repnin of a large Turkish army, the supreme vizier Yusuf Pasha led, where you, commanding over the troops of the left flank, with the rapid and numerous enemy attacks overcame all difficult transitions, in your movements they observed excellent art and order, and in the defeat of the enemy courage and bravery, they inflict you worthy of our military Order of the Holy Great Martyr and Victorious George.

On the basis of its establishment, We have most graciously granted you the Knight of the Order of this great cross of the second class and, delivering its signs, we command you to impose upon yourself and wear in a legalized manner. […]

Embassy to Turkey 1792-1794

Mikhail Larionovich!

Intending to send you ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary to the Ottoman Port, I command you to hasten your arrival here in order to receive proper instructions.

V.P. Kochubei - S.R. Vorontsov.

[...] The Empress yesterday appointed Lieutenant General Mikhail Larionovich Kutuzov as ambassador to Constantinople. Nobody expected such a choice, because although he is an intelligent and brave general, he was never seen used in political affairs. […]

M.I. Kutuzov to Catherine II

With my last most submissive report of the 1st of this June, I had the good fortune to convey to Your Imperial Majesty the urgent appointment of the 4th of this month for the exchange of mine at Dubossary with the Turkish Ambassador, which really happened safely that day, after some the sides of the Turkish insistence, which should be more called a request, so that the exchange would follow not on ours, but on their ferry, to which General Passek and I considered it our due to agree to replace all indulgences and so that further challenge of such an unimportant advantage over us would not postpone time and the exchange itself.

At the same time, I also dare to present to Your Imperial Majesty a part of my journal from May 22 to the 7th of this month, from which Your Imperial Majesty deign to see that nothing has been overlooked against the ritual observed during the exchange of the last former embassy. […]

The behavior of the Turks with us, Most Merciful Empress, is extremely polite, and in any case, their extreme caution is noticeable, so as not to give us reasons for indignation. Their ambassador will stay in the camp at Dubossary for seven days and no doubt agree to expose himself to all caution in the reasoning of airing things, and for my part, if it is noticeable from him about this impatience, I will delay here for reciprocity for several days, not moving away from Krivulen.

Mikhaila Golenishchev-Kutuzov.

M.I. Kutuzov - A.B. Suvorov.

Privy Councilor Mordvinov, our plenipotentiary minister to the Venetian Republic, notifies for the right of July 7/18 that the famous Angeli (about which your Excellency has already been informed by the Chargé d'Affaires Khvostov) intends to go straight from Ragusa to Tavria to work on his evil intentions having enough money with you.

I do not think that he would dare to enter Tavria, but I believe his intention is on Anapa, and in this case, his deceit, of course, will not hide from your Excellency.

During the continuation of my path, I do not notice any movement in the earth, any disturbance signifying. There is no notable increase in troops to the Bessarabian fortresses or to the Danube.

Mikhail Golenishchev-Kutuzov.

M.I. Kutuzov - P.A. Zubov.

The news received this day about the signing of a treaty between Russia and Poland, with the concession of the regions for eternal times to Russia, will undoubtedly calm the Ottoman Porto and compel it to silence.

To Your Excellency, as the main instrument of this great cause, I earnestly congratulate you on the feelings of a good Russian about this important acquisition.

In the event of the forthcoming peaceful celebration next month, many participating in the last war will undoubtedly take advantage of the inexhaustible favors of the great empress. On this occasion, without counting my labors and the continuous management of a noble part of the troops with some success throughout the war, I dare, by the unanimous right of the bounty of the all-merciful monarch and my lack with a large family, to entrust myself to the patronage of Your Excellency.

The very honorary commission now entrusted to me is, of course, a strong encouragement for all those who have devoted themselves to military service, and for me this excellence surpasses, it seems, my small merits, but the condition of my house may not recover.

I remain with due esteem and unrestricted devotion, most honorable count, most humble servant of your excellency.

Mikhaila Golenishchev-Kutuzov.

Catherine II to the Senate.

On the day of the peaceful celebration of September 2 of the past 1793, according to the painting from the throne of Our glorified, he bestowed Lieutenant-General Mikhail Golenishchev-Kutuzov for his service in the eternal and hereditary possession of two thousand souls. Most mercifully, we command to give him such hereditary possession from the sequestered from those who participated in the former Polish rebellion in the Volyn province of the farms: Zubovshchinsky, Shershnevsky, Kropivny, Volyansky, Selyanschinsky, Skolobovsky, Kraevshchinsky, Mogilyansky and Nemerovsky, and in a place where two thousand six hundred and sixty-seven souls of a man, half, with the lands and holdings belonging to them and all the economic cash in them.

The Senate, having prescribed where it should be about the proper return of all that to the aforementioned Lieutenant-General Golenishchev-Kutuzov, has to prepare for the signing of Our letter of gratitude.

Catherine.

M.I. Kutuzov - E.I. Kutuzova.

I entered Constantinople on 26 September. The Turks did not make any trouble in the ceremony, and the ministry ordered me to tell me that, out of friendship for my person, Porta was more willing to do courtesy to me than to Repnin. Mysteries determined on the previous basis 400 piyasters per day, and the sultan, out of special respect, adds 200 from the room treasury, for a total of 600 piyasters per day. […]

The vizier on the next day of arrival sent to ask about health and a snuff box with diamonds, a coffee cup with diamonds and yachons, extraordinary work, and 9 pieces of rich brocade, with such attention that each color has 30 peaks of the local measure, so that it would be on a woman's European dress ... All this is valued too much at 10,000 piyas [str]. […]

They say that everyday life [i.e. e. as if] the sultan ordered to prepare rich gifts.

The ministers all live outside the city, but they came to watch my entry. The Caesar, Prussian, and Neapolitan stations were one station away from Const [antinople], and everyone in general was visiting the next day of my arrival. I went to Buyuk-Dere, where I dined at the Cesar's internunion. They all live well. […]

Constantinople is this: seeing the Turkish cities, among other things, Adrianople, you think of having an imagination about Constantinople; but you're wrong. Building here, especially in Phanar and Pere, is so tricky and funny that it surpasses the imagination. Streets as wide as a salmon cabinet. The houses are tall, with lots of windows and balconies that converge on the upper floors.

There is a gazebo over my house. You will climb it and you will see the whole position of Constantinople: the seraglio, a great harbor, covered incessantly with ships and boats, of which, of course, you will see a thousand with your eye at any time, Constantinople with the beautiful Sophia, Sulimanie, Fanari, Galata, Pera, the beautiful Strait of Constantinople, called the ancients Bosphorus Thracian; beyond it is the suburb of Scutari in Asia; it has 200,000 inhabitants; the Sea of \u200b\u200bMarble, the Knyazhia Islands, Cape Kaltsydonskaya, Mount Olympus, la tour de Leandre [Tower of Leandre] and many other places - all this is suddenly visible. Seeing these miracles, you will not laugh, but cry from a feeling of tenderness. I kiss you, my friend, be healthy.

Mikhail G [deenishchev] -Kutuzov.

[…] In the past few days there were visits from the vizier and an audience with the sovereign, and because of this I could not take up the mail otherwise, as yesterday, and delayed; she had to leave last night.

How could I tell you soon that the Sultan and his court: I am in friendship with the Sultan, that is, he, in any case, allows me praise and compliments; the captain-pasha ordered his son-in-law to be friends with me; at one dispute about a fur coat, how to put it on, I was stubborn (that is, before the ceremony for several days). He forbade to argue with me and told me to say that he relies on me, and that a person with my upbringing does not skimp on him. I made him happy. At the audience, he ordered me to be courteous, which no ambassador had ever seen.

His palace, his courtyard, the attire of the courtiers, the structure and decoration of the chambers are intricate, strange, the ceremonies are sometimes ridiculous, but everything is great, huge, magnificent and respectable. This is the tragedy of Shakesperov, the poetry of Miltonov, or Odyssey of Homer.

And this is what impression I made when I entered the audience-hall; the room is a little dark, the throne, at first glance, is estimated at three million; on the throne sits a beautiful man, the coup of his entire court, dressed in cloth, simple, but on a turban of a huge solitaire with a feather and diamond buttonholes on a fur coat.

He turned a little to me, made a bow with his eyes, with his eyes and seemed to show everything that he had ordered me compliments before; either I am a thin physiognomist, or he is a kind and intelligent person. During my speech he listened attentively, so that he tilted his head and, where at the end of the speech a compliment from me is actually addressed to him, he bent down in such a way that he seemed to say: “I am very pleased, I love you very much; I'm sorry. I can't talk to you. " This is how the Sultan appeared to me. Delayed mail.

Goodbye my friends.

Hello kids, God bless you.

Loyal friend of Mikhail G [deenishchev] -Kutuzov.

M.I. Kutuzov - E.I. Kutuzova.

[…] There is a lot of trouble here; in the light of the ministerial post, there is no such troublesome one as here, especially in the current circumstances, only everything is not as complicated as I thought; and so I find that a person just won't do something that they won't force. The diplomatic carrier, no matter how cheating, but, by God, is not as tricky as the military, if it is done as it should be. […]

[December] 1793

The complaints of the ambassador of the brilliant Porte, who is in St. Petersburg, amaze me. I know that none of the prisoners who remained under their law and wished to return to their homeland were detained against their will in Russia, which is proved by the many prisoners who returned to the Ottoman regions. Those who have accepted the Christian law voluntarily, can they be honored among those forcibly detained? I do not know the image with which the ambassador acts in reasoning of such and in what cases he brings himself into trouble, but the impudent actions of the people, his entourage, may have given the reason that the police need to be careful about which the ambassador is indignant and unjustly complains. I do not want to bother the reis-effect with an unpleasant calculation of all the wills they have committed.

All foreign witnesses living in St. Petersburg have witnessed their behavior, and all the honors and respect due to the ambassador, as far as I know, have been taken, and I assure you that strict measures have been taken again to find prisoners detained by force, if there are any.

The right of the people is observed in Russia as sacred, to which the whole of Europe is witness. An agent of a power at war with Russia would enjoy the full patronage of this, and a friendly ambassador who has to capture the peace between the great powers, inspired only by his feelings and keeping the measures of behavior due at the great court, can not he enjoy all the respect, his character, among the capital, distinguished by all the virtues of hospitality and special attention to foreigners.

M.I. Kutuzov - A.B. Suvorov.

Mr. Consul General Severin informs me that he has notified Your Excellency that the Porta intends to declare war on Russia in three months. I am putting in my position of ministry to warn you, my dear sir, that according to my comments, I do not believe that the break with us is so close. However, I instructed Mr. Severin to notify Your Excellency in detail about the new troops passing to both principalities and Bessarabia and about the construction of fortresses.

On December 10, December 10, Porte was handed the name of the Charge d'Affaires a decisive refusal to change the tariff, the eternity of which is based on the clear words of Article 21 of the trade agreement, for which time she does not say a word to me on this matter, but I interpret this, following the proverb: silence is the essence confession, and I hope that this business will not cause much trouble. Everywhere its crumbling fortresses are not brought into a completely defensive state, its fleet is not yet strong; the undertaken changes in the money part did not reach the proper maturity, and most of all the insides are upset, almost disobedience is everywhere, in many places there are mutinies, part of Arabia, greater Rumelia and the environs of Trebizond quite occupy their Porto with disobedience.

All these reasons should abstain her, judging by her common sense, from all only pernicious extremes for her; but the knowledge that the husband, who inflicted such terrible wounds on her, and whom I dare to assure of my boundless devotion and of that excellent and heartfelt esteem with which I remain Your Excellency, my merciful sovereign, remain the most humble servant, will keep her most of the knowledge that the husband is in control of the troops in the newly acquired area:

Mikhaila Golenishchev-Kutuzov.

[…] I am healthy, but very troublesome; when it comes to send mail, then I sit at the letter for a day in three. And the matter in the letter is such that every word is important, and so that he does not lie indifferently. Besides Khvostov, Pisani, Barotsi are angry among themselves; under each other undermine. Likewise, small people who are used in important matters, many are all cheats, and one must not only beware of them, but also deceive them.

I will leave on the first of March and will go rather than driving here, so I will be at the border at the end of April. […]

To maintain order, I suggest that the major on duty give me daily notes about what the past day was for the gentlemen's pupils, and explain in these about the kindness of the supplies.

And also about that, for the necessary, I find it decree that things foreseeable, such as: powder, lipstick, ribbons, combs, etc., were required monthly in advance, without exceeding the one laid down by the arranged arrangement by the late gentleman, the chief director of the corps, Count Anton Bogdanovich Debalmen, for a cash pupils; if something superfluous is requested, the remainder should be shown at a future demand, and then only demand for that remainder.

To the gentlemen of the military commanders, inspectors and others, make extreme efforts so that things and other things are used with all thrift. And such requirements should not be repaired on shreds, but in the proper order, for those with the books should be a document, and should be sent in the first days to the chief treasurer from each private commander for signing, and he, having received, considering that everything required is necessary and does not exceed of the set number, having made his inscription on them, he gives to the parishioner with whom these things are composed, and if with different ones, he gives his orders for signing, and keeps them with him; in the case when he perceives superiority or whatever is suspect, he has to report to me and then awaits my command to do so.

From the Highest Order.

His Imperial Majesty, in His presence in the city of Gatchina, deigned to give the following order.

Adjutant General Count Lieven.

Alexander I M.I. Kutuzov Mr. General of Infantry, the St. Petersburg military governor Golenishchev-Kutuzov.

The actions of the landowner Slavishcheva with the peasants of her Gdovsky district of the village of Sosa, described in your note and discovered by the investigation, deprive her of the right to manage this estate; why, having entrusted him to the management of the noble guardianship, this landowner for her cruelties, contrary to laws and humanity, and for her abuse of power in burdening the peasants with taxes, I command you to bring it to court according to the laws. Staying however you are supportive.

Alexander.

About the past in 1801 in the Vyborg province of the grain harvest, the statement of this to the Highest of Your Imperial Majesty, bringing the benevolence, I am most happy to imagine that the current harvest is much better than last year's and that the winter bread sown next year is for the most part so good that one can hope from it You can have a plentiful harvest, or eat in the coming spring when the snow melts and when the earth begins to melt there will be no strong morning frosts and northern winds, which in that direction often destroy the best types of good harvest.

General of Infantry Golenishchev-Kutuzov.

M.I. Kutuzov to Alexander I.

On that date I learned that recently officer Vlodek had duels of the Life Guards Cavalry Regiment with some Rastvorovsky, whose state of shortness of time had not yet been recognized, and yesterday on Kamenny Island, the Life Guards Regiment was Lieutenant Prince Golitsyn and the court Your Imperial Majesty Chamberlain Davydov, of whom, as they say, the latter are both lightly wounded, and of the first Rastvorovsky was not easily hacked in the face.

About these duels, after they were performed in the most secretive way, I have no formal report either from the police or from anywhere else. I will inform you about the truth and the details of these incidents in detail, and then I will have the mercy of your imperial once again to convey to you.

General of Infantry Golenishchev-Kutuzov.

M.I. Kutuzov to Alexander I.

Most Merciful Emperor!

Having been burdened with an unfeigned illness, I could not, after a while, send my posts; now, having received relief, I dare to ask Your Imperial Majesty for my will.

No matter how much it is for me to see the anger of the meek Sovereign over me and no matter how sensitive, having immediate access to it, to relate through another, but, having been ascertained that my being and strength do not belong to me, but to the Sovereign, I obey without murmuring in anticipation of His sacred will ...

But if your Imperial Majesty was not pleased with my service at all, in that case, I ask you to look with your eyes at the merciful dismissal, more like a forty-year-old in military and other positions, who have been sent with honor for a long time; to the wounds I have suffered; to my large family; the approaching old age and my rather frustrated state of going through the service from one place to another; and to the boundless adherence to your person, Sovereign, which, perhaps, my shyness or the image of my address to Your Imperial Majesty overshadows.

[...] I am still very pleased with the new economist: he is a professor, but God forbid that he had at least half of honesty against his mind. And a fool will not do half of what could be done. I haven’t left my borders for three weeks or more, and tomorrow I’m going to a farm 25 miles away, where I haven’t been yet.

The bread was removed, that is, the rye and wheat. The harvest is good, the wheat was born ten times, and the smaller rye was deceived in the sowing. Less was sown than it was shown, or the peasants cut it at the housekeeper. As soon as they take away all the bread, it is necessary to start working on the buildings; there is no decent Vinnytsia, not a single brewery, which is an important point here, especially in Raygorodok.
