Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Correspondence Respecting Relations With Persia The death of Yar Mahomed Khan has been fully confirmed. Last night I called on the Ameer Nizam, and after alluding to the death of Yar Mahomed Khan, and to the rumours prevailing of the intention of Sultan Moorad Meerza, the Governor of Khorassan, to move in the direction of Herat, I said that the largeness of the force under the Princes command rendered it necessary that I should obtain some explanation of the intention of this Government. I also informed him that the views of the British Government with respect to Herat were unchanged; that it would allow of no interference with that city; and that any demonstration of Sultan Moorad Meerza in that direction would be followed by evil consequences, and that it appeared to me it was for the interest of the Persian Government to give me assurances of the course it intended to adopt, in order that I might communicate these assurances without delay both to Her Majesty´s Government and the Government of India. The Persian Minister disclaimed, in distinct terms, any intention on the part of this Government to occupy Horat, or to send troops towards that city, and said that I might give Her Majesty´s Government assurances to that effect. The troops collected by Sultan Moorad Meerza he declared to be solely with the object of coercing the Tejjen Toorkomans, and that the Prince had already marched to that district. In answer to an observation of mine, the Ameer said that Prince Sultan Moorad Meerza Would not presume to make an unauthorised movement towards Herat, and that, moreover, orders had been sent to the Prince to abstain from any military movement in that direction. To prevent, I said, the possibility of mistake, and the consequent measures which would follow if the Governor of India were thrown into doubt of the intentions of the Persian Government, I recommended that these orders should be renewed, and that the Prince should be warned that on no pretence whatever was he to send any troops towards Herat. The Ameer agreed to forward these instructions by a courier who would leave Ispahan in three days. I mentioned to the Ameer Nizam that intelligence had reached me of a disposition evinced by the Prince Governor of Khorassan to afford military assistance to a member of the late dynasty in Herat, named Shahzadeh Mahomed Youssuf Meerza, to regain possession of the sovereignty. Such a movement would, I said, be regarded by the British Government as equally objectionable as a movement made from other ostensible motives. The Persian Minister affirmed that this intelligence was totally destitute of foundation. In confirmation of his assertions he declared that Syed Mahomed Khan, the son of Yar Mahomed Khan, had addressed a letter to the Shah soliciting his favour and protection, and that His Majesty had sent him a firman in corresponding terms.
