4.. • POLAND. I invite my readers to make a rapid journey to the Ancient provinces of Poland ! The climate is not so in viting. The Heavens aro never so serene. The people are not so polished, and you cannot recline in groves of oranges, or on terraces of myrtle. Bot yet, in the words " Courland" and " Volhynia," there is something of music to my ear, for with them I connect associations ever favour- I able to the cause of liberty, and now additionally dear, after I , the splendid and unequalled conquest of the modern Poles. Let us, then. for a little while, devote our attention to Cour ,and and Volhynia. Courland was formerly a Duchy of Europe ; 250 miles long and 40 miles broad—bounded by the Baltic—Livonia and Poland. For centuries it was a province of Poland— but in 1795 it was annexed by the law of force and might to the dominions of Russia ; and from that period com menced its misfortunes. The country is undulated and fertile. Its soil is productive, and its people brave. But I{u.-lan domination has crushed instead of raising, and enfeebled instead of invigorating. It was a healthy plant, • and vomised well—but it has grafted an old, diseased, and wretched tree—and it had well nigh porished. Its forests of pines and fir, and its groves of oak, are profitable to Rus sian cupidity, and to the absolute government of the Emperor—but it has received nothing in return but or ders to levy troops, pay contributions, and remain oppressed and ignorant—unhappy and quiet. Its capital, Mittau, has been allowed to remain unimproved, and its walls and moats have gone to decay. Its Lutheran population has indeed sighed for liberty and regeneration ; but these wishes could not be acceded to by an Imperial Despot I One generation has passed away since the States voted the Union to Russia but there be those still living who, pointing to the Old Ducal Palace, yet speak of the days when Courland was independent and Sovereign ! The successes of the Poles in Russian Poland have excited the hopes and raised the courage of the brave Courlandese —and they will no longer submit to that iron despotism which renews its demands in proportion to the degree of the obedience of its subjects. Alas ! we know but too little of the details. It is there as in Turkey that men are arrested, strangled, or drowned, because it suits the pleasure of the governor, or the will of the autocrat. But this we know, that the people have risen, that the Emperor of Russia has learnt this' afflicting intelligence,' and has declared Cour land in a state of war. From Berlin, Vienna, and the fron tiers of Prussia, we are assured that the revolution marches, that all Germany will soon bo in arms; and that if the cause of liberty has not been successful in southern climes, it will be crowned with a glorious triumph in the north. Volhynia also claims our notice, and is entitled to our sympathy. It is also in a state of revolution. A Palatinate of Russian-Poland, but belonging now to Russia, it is two hundred and twenty miles long, and one hundred and thirty miles broad. It is bounded by Polesia, Kiof,Podolia, and Aus trian Poland I I Its plains are fertile, and well watered—and in its capital, which is Loutzk, are to be found many a de scendant of those brave Poles who fought for the indepen dence of the old kingdom of Poland. Here the intelligence of the successes of their Polish brethren at Warsaw and on the banks of the Vistula and Bug has excited a determina tion to be free. They have too long endured the oppression of the Court of St. Petersburgh, and they will submit no longer. From Volbynia we have to-day received the most gratify. lug intelligence. Dwernicki has entered Volbynia. When he left Zamoski he had 10,000 brave Poles along with him. He passed the Bug at Uscelug, and at Krzemeniez he was received, on the Ilth day of the month of April lest, with transports of delight by the students of the University, and by the whole population. We have this news from Vienna, as well as from Berlin. Volhynia is, by this time, in full insurrection. Marshal Diebitsch has undertaken an ar duous task. To the North he has Lithuania and Cour land, and to the South he has Volhynia and all Poland in insurrection. He will, doubtless, make another des perate effort ; but it will, indeed, be desperate, and from that hour we may commence the history of " The De cline and Fall of the Russian Empire." To live to wit ness that fall would be quite enough happiness for any one generation. The Russian empire is the great barrier to the progress of liberty, education, and, indeed, civilization. When this colossus shall be destroyed, reason, truth, and justice may commence their long and happy reign. Let us then, rejoice together at these insurrections in Courland and Volhynia, and let us heartily desire that they will be eminently successful and permanently victorious. The news from the Polish army is preparatory to ano ther great battle. The skirmishes or lesser conflicts have been decidedly in favour of the Polish arms. Yet Diebitsch li,ts succeeded in his retreat, and his army, though discou raged and dispirited, diseased and disorganised, is still pow erful and numerous. It is of no use misrepresenting the :rue state of our opponents. On the 17th the armies of itossia and Poland were within sight of each other. Each was preparing for a bloody conflict. Should Diebitsch defeated, his cause is irretrievably lost ! Should he be successful, he would press onwards again to War -Ayr, and then as a conqueror he would offer terms. But his proposal will be rejected ! Dwernicki, with Volliynia in arms, will be soon there to defeat him : even a momentary success will not be a permanent defeat. Diebitsch will tight to the last ; but dispatches, which be had sent to Saint Petersburgh, have been intercepted, and these demonstrate that he is dispirited, hopeless, and sad. The reports whit.h are published at St. Petersburgh are mutilated and altered. The Russian Government dare not speak the truth : the Russians are kept in ignorance, for the Emperor fears a general movement. The defeat of the Poles is necessary to the integrity of his empire, and be will do all he can to insure it ; hut the march of events is too power ful for him, as it is for M. Casimir Perrier. The insurrec tion in Volhynia, and the revolution in Courland, have sadly disturbed them both. The Emperor is disturbed, because be feels that his Throne is tumbling ; and our President of the Council is disturbed, because he wants the French Re volution to be even popular at St. Petersburgh, and he knows that this cannot be the case whilst Nicholas shall see one of its results to be the decline, and ultimate fall, of his own au thority ! We are all now awaiting the next news from the head quarters of the Polish army with anxiety and hope ! One more decisive battle in favour of the Polish cause would overthrow the army of Russia. Let us hope then for the best, and in the absence of any positive intelligence, let us make ourselves warm with the thought that Poland is free ! LORD CLIFFORD.—Thie nobleman died on Friday, at his seat in Devonshire. His Lordship was one of the Catholic Peers whom the bill of 1829 allowed to Catholics to take their hereditary seats in the legislature. He was in his 72d year, and little known by any share he took in politics.— He married the youngest daughter of the late Lord Arundel, by whom he had a large family. The present Lord Clifford is in his 40th year, and married to the daughter of Cardinal Wt Id, who since the death of his lady has entered the Ca tholic Church. The family of Clifford, whence the noble lord is lineally descended, is one of the most ancient among our ancient nobility. PANORAMA OF THE FII IT7SH EMPIRE. LEICESTER CTITIMFIRIE, APRIL 30.

Friday last, pursuant to a requisition, a meeting was convened at the Imperial Pump-room, to consider the propriety of addressing his Majesty, in expressions of loyal and grateful feeling, for his having exercised his just prerogative in dissolving the late Parliament for the good of his people. About two o'clock, carriages, horsemen, and crowds of people, reinforced by a considerable number of freeholders from the country, began to move through the long and beautiful ave nues of the Imperial Spa, and formed a very animated and exhilarating sight. The room of the Imperial Spa was completely filled, and be fore the proceedings commenced, almost double the number of persons contained in the room, were compelled to turn back. It was a proud day for Cheltenham. Upon no similar occasion was there ever so full and so respectable a body of persons assembled. The orchestra was entirely occupied by lathes. MARRIED.—Wm.

Last Saturday night, Lady Parkyns' summer house, a pleasant rural retreat, :war Ruddington, was fired by some malicious incendiary, who has hitherto eluded justice.

DERBYSHIRE COURIER, APRIL 30. PRESENT STATE Or THE GROWING CROPS IN THE HUNDRED or SCASSDALE.—The early sown wheats upon fellows and dry soils have a healthy and promising appearance ; they greatly improved during the last month, but the late sown (particularly on wet strong land) look very weak, and short of plant, so much so, that whole fields have been mown with oats this spring ; many fields where this plan has not been adopted, cannot produce half a crop. Lands that were well adapted foe wheat, but sown late, have suffered dreadfully, owing to the succes sion of heavy cold rain that fell immediately after seed time, and when the plant did maim its appearance above ground, it was so weak and puny, that it could not contend against the succeeding severe bare frost, but was to a great extent destroyed, which must prove an immense loss to the farmer. The wire worm which may be called the farmer's seourge—coming like the thief in the night, un looked for, unwished for, and whose ravages, no precaution or system of farming yet known can guard against—is making sad havoc amongst many growing crops, particularly on clover lays. The spring seed time has bem a very favourable one. Oats came up with a strong healthy blade, and if the succeeding weather should prove genial, there can be no doubt of en abundant crop of this grain. The loss that farmers will sustain by the rot in sheep, will in many instances be ruinous; nearly whole and valuable flocks of sheep have died of this dread ful disease, but the loss as yet cannot be ascertained, as they sae still dying in great numbers, and the survivors in many situations cannot be turned to any good account. Such an effect had the wet cold season of last year upon clay farms. that numbers of horned cattle have suffered seriously ; when slaughtered, their livers have been found covered with the same disease as that which has proved so fatal to sheep, and many store cattle, though kept well, look poor and unhealthy. It is generally remarked that the bay of last year, though got well, is not near so nutritious, and the cattle fed on it do not yield near so much milk and butter as usual. The corn produce of last year being so miserably deficient on clay farms, added to other losses, have made the present the most unproductive season to that class of farmers in this quarter, of any in the memory of the oldest inhabitant. Tian NOVO WELLS .- T he approaching anniversary of well-dressing in the rural village of Tissington, in this county, will be celebrated this year, with its usual convivial amusements; and as moat of the inhabi tants have contrived to brew a bushel of malt to regale and enliven the hearts of their friends and acquaintances, the whole is expected to go of with an eclat superior to that of any previous display. The decorations, &c. are intended to be of the most splendid kind, and a very excellent band of music, consisting of the best performers in the neighbourhood, will be in attendance during the day. SEAGULLS.—We are situated SO far inland that any thing seen ap pertaining to the ocean, excites considerable attention. It was there., .bserved with surprise that seven seagulls were a few days ago flying over the town of Chesterfield in a north-easterly direction. We believe these birds have occasionally been seen singly, and have even been shot in the neighbourhood, but were never before noticed in such a number, or in flight. At the sale of Ma Pearson's effects last week, at Nottingham, a number of curious end antique articles which sold for very= prices, a lock of Napoleon's hair fetched the sum of seventeen shillings I We have every reason to believe that the statements which hare ap.' geared in the Scotch newspapers, relative to the probability of tile Lord Chief Baron of Scotland being appointed Speaker of the House of Commons, will, on the assembling of the new parliament, be found to be correct. • COURT OF Kiwo's lintcu.—On Monday last, the court made absolute a rule for a new trial which bad been previously granted in the cause" Webster v. Nelson and others." It was an action brought by Mr. Webster, surgeon of Heckmondwike, against the proprietors of the Courier Leeds and London coach, to recover compensation in damages for injury sustained by the upsetting of the coach near Not. tin ham , ea its way from Leeds to idon. The case was tried before Mr. Bunn Garrow, at the Nottingham assizes, when the NW' diet was returned for the plaintiff, with 200 L clammy!.

The 31st Annual Meeting of the Church Missionary Society took place yesterday morning at Exeter-hall. Lord Gambier presided. The Rev. T. Woodroffe read the report of the last year, which stated that the receipts amounted to 46,0001. The Archdeacon of Lichfield moved that the re port be printed, which was seconded by the Hon. Rev. B. Noel. The auditory consisted of about 3,000 persons, the greater part of whom were well-dressed females. The Bristol mail was upset on Saturday morning last, as it was leaving Cardiff for Bristol; three passengers, the coachman, and guard, were seriously injured. One gentle l i - man, the Rev. John Newton Coffin, lies in a most precarious state at the house of T.

On the application of Mr. Kumar, an injunction granted in this case to restrain the defendant, Lord Ferrer., front cutting down orna mental timber, was extended to the purchasers of the timber generally, who are also defendants, but who were not before included in the ceder. TORII V. CASK. Mr. AGAR and Mr. DUCKWORTH appeared upon an appeal from an order of the Vice-Chancellor. Sir John Tobin, Mr. Lumley, and Mr. Cass, were elected assignees of the estate of Mews. Ogle and Wal ton, of Liverpool, who became bankrupts in 1804. It was the duty of the to pay the proceeds of the bankrupts' estate into a Liver -1 cl ogs, loose. They had chosen to pay them into the homiest Cs which failed in 1612, and in which Mr. Cass war S WNW. When a sum of between 5,0001. and 6,0001. bad been paid late disk eeseset, Mr. Cass died, and the object of this suit was to sulo. vir plat his executors the amount due, witb interest, at 5 per eat. is die ground that the assignees bad failed to perform their duty, ay paying the bankrupts' effects into a house net within the directions of the assignment to them, and that Mr. Cass had been cognizant of diet breach of trust. The Vice Chancellor, adopting these views of the ewe, decreed the payment to be made by the executors, with interest at pia cent. Mr. Sotictzon Cinwsnat. and Mr. Eon now (misted that this de. ace was wrong, and although they admitted that Mr. Cass's estate wail liable for the principal, denied that he ought to be charged with the Is. tercet. The Loan Cuaxcezioa said it appeared by the evidence, that al. though Mr. Cass was a partner, he was little more than a merely nominal partner, and there was no ground for saying that he took any active part in the proceedings or dealings of the firm. He did not appear to have wittingly violated his duty as a trustee, and his Lordship thought be ought not, under the circumstance, to be called upon to pay interest. The appeal was therefore allowed as to the interest, and the question of costs reserved. His Lordship said he was desirous of reducing as much as possible the number of appeals. When his Lordship assumed his present office there were 110 appeals, of which only 45 remained, and of these he trusted be should be able to dispose before the Parliament met again. He should then devote himself to reducing the pressure of busi ness in the Vice. Chancellor's Court. ROLLS COURT. His Howoua this morning, at the sitting of the Court, Intimated that, in consequence of a representation that had been made to him, he should, in order to meet the convenience of the bar, not sit again till Thursday. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Mar 3. THE COLLEGI OF SURGIONS V. WARLIT AND OTHERS. Sir J. SCARLET? applied for a rule to show cause why a almlnal information should not be filed against Mr. Wakicy, the Editor of the Lan.vt, and others, under the following circumstances : At a meeting of the College of Surgeons, lately held, Mr. Watley and other individuals attended, and interrupted the proceedings, so much so that the President was obliged to leave the College. After be was gone, a Mr. Walker was elected to the Chair, and the meeting proceeded to pass resolutions reflecting on the character of the College and the President and Council. The noise was so great that it was deemed right to call in a party of the police for the purpose, if possible, et ejecting Mr. Watley and his party, but the latter overpowered the po lice, and turned them out of the Theatre of the College but a stronger party of police having been obtained, the opposers of the Pied. dent and Council were forced out of the place of meeting. Oa the 11th ultimo the resolutions passed at the meeting were pub lished in the Lancet. These resolutions reflected strongly on die College, and declared that the President and Council paid no attention to the respectability or interests of the w 1 —4e. In a subse quent number of the Lancet, It was broadly stated, that the object of Mr. Walley and his party was to overthrow the council of the college altogether. These were the general facts of the case, and the against whom he (Sir J. Scariett) moved, were Mr. Walley, edro g e de o l l the Lancet, Mr. Walker, who acted arehairman after the president had left, and Messrs. Mai:donne!' and King, the mover and seesoder of the resolutions. The object of the president and council in applying foe this information was not to gratify any feeling; of revenge, all they wanted was the protection of the court against any future attempt of imt offending parties to renew the riot anddisturbance. Since the circumstance in question bad taken place, the theatre had continued closed, it being feared that were it opened a repetition of the disturbance would take place, and the consequence was that the proceedings of the college were at a standstill ; and although it was n that 24 lectures a year should be given at the college, the presi den t a nd council were unable to go on with them for the fears befit* alluded to..—Rule to chew cause granted. THE KING V. THE JUSTICES OF BANDON, IN ESSEX. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL applied for a imandamus to oblige the magistrates of Sandell to indenture certain pauper apprentices to mari ners, which they had been called on to do by the parish authorities, but which call they refused attending to, without giving any reason. Lord TENTERDEN asked if the justices were not empowered to ex ercise a discretion ? The ATTORNEY GENERAL thought not. The Court granted a mandamus, calling on the magistrates to bear the case, and state their objections. POLICE REPORTS. Ciumnsal.r..—Mr. Robert Whalley, cheese factor, of Aldgate, ac companied by his solicitor, attended before Mr. Alderman VENABLE/ yesterday, to tender himself to be examined touching some damagedone to his windows on Wednesday night last, and be bound over to pease cute the offenders, if they should be diaoovered. Mr. Beresford, the chief clerk, euggeeced that the Magistrate meld not take cognisance of the matter, meths windows bad not been broken feloniously, which the terms of be Aet fee afkrding essopeasation sequired. The solicitor submitted that another opportunity of discussing this point would arise before the compensation could be ordered. Mr. Alderman VaxasLas was desirous of giving every facility Is his power, but if the Act of Parliament was clear upon the suipeotomd no retirees could be afforded where the damage was not done fekakemilip, be ought not to suffer the applicant to take this useless step of enter• in g into a recognisance. The Solicitor observed that it was the province of the Petty Said= to judge of the circumstances, and if the Magistrate decided againstios miring the recognizance, he, upon his own opinion, only anticipated the duty of the Petty Session, and deprived applicant of the means of bringing the question before it. Mr. Whalley said he should not have sought to recover for the des. mgge, if he had not received some anonymous letters, threatening to do more serious mischief to his premises upon any similar occasion. As to the difficulty started by Mr. Beresford, there was a difference of opi nion among the Magistracy about it. The windows of his private house in Essex had also been broken, and there no objection had been raised to this preliminary step of taking his recognisance to prosecute. Mr. Ald. Venantss had no wish to prevent Mr. W. from appealing from his construction of the statute to the opinion of two Magistrates. The receiving of the recognisance was not an admission of his claim, and therefore he should not object to it any further. 301/-/TREET.—A great number of persons, who had their windows smashed on the night of the illuminations, applied yesterday to depose to the fact, in order that they might proceed fur the amount of the damage out ut the county rate. They all bore testimony to the ma tions of the police. Among others, the proprietor of the M. Post applied; but there seems to be a difficulty, that the damps wee done by persons unknown, who, by going away quietly naps tived the felonious intent, which the Act of Parliament to be necessary. This may lead to some discussion at the sessions, Robert Tyne, the old Scotch sailor, who was examined for having, by means of false pretences, defrauded lie. P&Millan, printer, Bow street, out of 21. 2a 6d. was fully committed for trial. In the pocket of James Dockery, the unfortunate man who is alleged to have been murdered, were found written on a piece of paper, in his own hand, these lines : If life were a thing that money could buy, The rich would live, the poor alone would die. MA/LBONOUGH.STEEZT.—Yesterday Mr. Thomas Cannon, an ex. pugilist, and landlord of the Castle public.bouw, in Jermyn.street, St. James's, attended at this office, accompanied by his wife, to prefer a charge against William Reynolds, an informer. It appeared that, in consequence of some card.playing having taken place in Mr. Cannon's house, the prisoner consented to take a mova reign not to lay informations against the landlord, who accordingly left him the money at a publie-bouse where the informer occasionally resorted. On Thursday, however, the prisoner called on Mrs. Cannon, during the absence of bar husband at the Windsor elec tion, and said that Mr. Cannon had promised him a sovereign, if be would withdraw the inforrnatioos foe card-playing spina him. The informer then pulled out some papers, and observed that he had withdrawn the summonses, which he would destroy. He acesmilimgly tore the p a up before Mrs. C. who, believing them to be die ania. menses against her husband for suffering gam is fah haus% which would su b ject him to M. penalty in each case, headed wee half a sovereign to the prisoner; bit on his caning far a lodise supply of money, Mr. Cannon had returned home, and be gave the informer into custody.

Tuamws Orrice. —Yesterday, John Barrett, aged 17 years, charged with committing a violent assault on a boy named L aurerc , and afterwards kicking and beating Charles Faulkner, a 'Thames i x . lice constable. Faulkner found him on the previous night kicking , u beating a boy in Red Lion-street, Wapping. The latl was en ground weltering in his blood, and the prisoner kicking him anh h., heavy thick boots, studded with large hobnails, worn by excav a t ors ._, In his endeavours to secure the prisoner he was severely punished, anti would have been certainly overpowered, but for the interferenea of several of the new police. The prisoner was fined 40a. and held to be to keep the peace. William Foster was charged with committing a violent as.ault Thomas Collins, a police constable. Six policemen were conveying , drunken sailor to the station-house ; on their way thither the prison,. excited a mob to rescue the seaman. Collins begged Foster to desist on which be swore at him, and broke a plate and dish on the offic ir , head, inflicting a severe wound. The magistrates fined him 51. oe, default, two months imprisonment. Union-Hatt —Yesterday, a span named Nixon, in the employ a cow-keeper in the Southwark Bridge-road, was charged with having committed a violent assault on a widow who carries on the bubincis a tobacconist. It appeared that, on the night of the last illumination, while th complainant was standing at her shop door with her niece, the defend. ant came up and made use of a filthy expression to them. Knowi ng the fellow lived in the neighbourhooi, the complainant expressed .a determination to complain of him to his master, and was in the se t of proceeding there for that purpose, when the ruffian, who had a pint pot in his hand, struck her with it over her left eye, and inflicted deep cut. The Magistrates fined the defendant 31. and costs. _ DIVIDENDS, ane.Continued from the First Page. May 20, H. R. and W.
