The care which all the states of the empire took of those persons who
lost their places by the affair of the indemnity in 1803, induces us
to hope that the same sentiments of justice will be extended to those
individuals who have hitherto been employed in the general service,
who have been chosen in all parts of the Germanic empire, and many of
whom have quitted other profitable places, looking forward to an
honourable subsistence for life, and which should not be wanting to
them on account of their fidelity, and the integrity and capacity with
which they have executed their functions:
We have, therefore, taken the resolution of preserving to those of our
imperial servants, who have hitherto drawn their salaries from our
chamber, the same appointments, reserving to ourselves to place them
in employments in the service of our hereditary states; and we hope,
with so much the more confidence, that the electors, princes, and
states will provide for the imperial chamber of justice of the empire,
and the chancellerie of the chamber of justice, by charging themselves
voluntarily with this expense, as it will be trifling in amount, and
will diminish every year.
As to the chancellerie of the aulic council of the empire, the funds
destined for its support will be employed to provide for the wants of
those individuals who have hitherto drawn from thence their salaries;
this will serve them until other measures may be taken.
Done in our capital and residence of Vienna, under our imperial seal,
the 6th of August, 1806.
FRANCIS.
