The tribes of Hyderanloo and Sibbikee, which have been the cause of conten
tion between the two High Powers, and are now dwelling in the territory of the
Ottoman Empire, should they from thence transgress the boundary of Persia,
and commit any ravages, the Turkish Frontier authorities must endeavour to
