DYNASTY OF THE KAJARS. 415
Na'ib, agreeably to the orders of his highness the
Prince Viceroy, for this reason broke off* the dis
cussion relative to the armistice, and made prepa
rations for returning. Tormasoff, again exerting
himself to keep up appearances, at the time of the
envoy s departure, increased, beyond all description,
his demonstrations of attention, respect, and pomp
of reception : but even if he had been desirous of
treating them as he did Suleiman Khan, Waly of
Bazachuk, he could have obtained no advantage,
on account of the bravery of the intrepid Ghoolams
composing the Mirza's retinue ; and the solution of
the problem would not have accorded with Torma-
soff s premises. Although, finally, Makri, after many
vicissitudes of war and great loss of men on both
sides, from the decrees of Fate and the sanction of
Destiny, fell under the Russian power, Faty Aly
Khan however obliged all the people of the place
and of the neighbouring districts to remove to the
opposite side of the Aras ; and, by the Prince-Vice
roy's order, the government of Dizmar was conferred
on and entrusted to him. The tribes and clans of
Karabagh also, in order to escape from the losses
they suffered from Pir Kuly Khan Kajar, who, by
the prince's order, had repeatedly made plundering
incursions among them, were dispersed in separate
bodies, in the direction of Nakhshiwan and other
strong positions; so that there remained not a trace
of population in Karabagh, excepting Fort Panah-
abad, and four or five places of difficult access,
situated in the mountains; which they turned into
fortified posts, and conveyed thither whatever was
required for a permanent abode. Ibrahim Khan
