DYNASTY OF THE KAJARS.
CHAP. XII.
AN ACCOUNT OF THE REVOLT OF HUSAIN KULY KHAN KAJAR, TUB
BROTHER OF THE TRIUMPHANT SOVEREIGN ; THE REPORT MADE
OF IT TO THE KINO WHEN IN AZARBA'lJAN; AND HIS MAJESTY'S
RETURN, WITH THE ARMY, TO IRAK.
A lthough it had been the secret purpose of the
inspired mind of the victorious sovereign not to
permit the signal of march towards the rose-bowers
of his capital to be displayed until he had, by the
assistance of his foe-consuming sword, swept away
the weeds and brambles from the garden of Azar-
ba'ijan, and purged it from the existence of plun
derers and rebels; yet, when the account of the
revolt of his infatuated brother, Husain Khan
Kajar, came to his ears, he turned the reins of
his world-traversing charger to the direction of
Irak, for the purpose of suppressing the designs of
the perfidious traitors in that province; of which
the following is a clear statement. The world-
subduing sovereign, on terminating the affairs of
Sadik Khan, had, on his return to Teheran the
capital, ornamented the brow of Husain Kuly
Khan Kajar, by investing him with the sove
reignty of Fars; entirely confiding, at the same
time, to his erring judgment and decision all its
affairs, both small and great. Upon his arrival at
Shiraz, he at first placed on his neck the collar of
obedience, and unfurled the banners of dependence
in the lists of allegiance: but when, from stand
ing in the relation of brother to his exalted ma
jesty, he had attained strength and resources, then
came into his head the design of revolting against
him; and under pretence of the king's inexperience
