setuble that which has so heavily weighed upon Belgium.—Courrier Francais. RUSSIA AND POLAND. The grand Russian army has renounced its com munications with Russia, which are entirely cut off from all parts ; it supports itself solely upon the Prussian territory. The theatre of war will be transported upon the left bank of' the Vistula. A ,-teat number of Russian officers are at Thorn, to lirect the provisioning which is made for the Russian ermy. They are constructing a bridge to i'acilitate the communications.— Correspondant dc Hambourg. A Pole, in a letter to the Correyondant Impar ;ll dillani6ourgi. complains of th* partiality which ...he Prussian government shows for the Russians. He afkirms, " that their line of communication with Rus4a being cut off, they draw from Prussia all :rinds of provision, and that they construct in the Prussian cities upon the Vistula barks, which will acre the Russian army for the passage of that river." " Notwithstanding," he adds, " the least mark of interest in our favour, a sim;de conveyance of money into Poland, is regarded in Prussia as a state crime. Without this true violation of the neutrality, the Russians could not carry on the war, but would be soon lest." '.,The conduct of Prussia and Austria towards Peland is one of the principle motives which has, the present, prevented the brave Poles Clan achieving their deliverance. If Prussia !Ltd not retained the funds of the Polish Bank, the public treasury of Warsaw would perhaps not be in distress ; if Austria had not made her.self gaoler to the Russians, Dwernicki would perhaps be in Podolia; if Prussia had not provisioned tho Russian army by the Vistula, she would perhaps have less of the cholera and more reputation for neutrality. Prussia and Austria stop all that which can servo the Poles, even good news, whilst their paid jour nals always hasten to spread news cf diltress and of defeats of the Poles, knowing them to be false. A traveller of some political importance, who has arrived from St: Petcrsburgh, has given us a curious picture of the state of feeling in the Rus sian Empire. At St. Petcrsburgh, a city peopled with foreigners, and with fortunes emanating from the Emperor Nicholas, there reigns great fermen tation. In spite of the slavery of the Pies., in spite of the surreillence of an active and inquisitorial police, they speak loudly against the Emperor and his government. Pamphlets circulate clandes tinely in the society of the nobles, and amongst the citizens, a means of attack yet unknown. The little success of the Polish war, the immense and successive sacrifices which it has imposed upon the nobility, the horrible consumption of men, caused within three years, by the campaigns of Tur key, and the expedition against Poland, has given birth to the most violent irritation ; for despotism when it is not victorious, when it has not glory and success, is the weakest of governments. Every thing leads to the belief, that crc long, there will be a crisis in tho Russian autocracy ; with some further successes of the Poles, and the Em peror will perhaps tremble under his triple crown. It is particularly in the interior of Russia, tra versed by this traveller, that discontent bursts out with violence. In spite of the extensive system of espionage, there exists secret societies. The German Journals begin to raise the veil upon this state of opinion in Russia. The Cor respondant d'Hanaliourg speaks of troubles which have burst out not only at Kiow, but in several other Russian Governments ; they even give us to understand that the communications aro cut off between Moscow and St. Petcrsburgh.—Courrier Francais. GERMANY. On the first ofJane a treaty was signed betweun Austria, Prussia, and all the other states of the Germanic Confederation, by which each of the con federate states oblige themselves to bear upon the Rhine, at the first requisition, a contingent of troops of which the total is 300,000 men. Among the contingents to be furnished, we cite those of two states : the one is the contingent of Bavaria, amounting to 25,000 men ; and the other, that of Bade, 6,000: this treaty has only been known to the ministry a few days. This explains the numerous and long councils of Ministers which have been held since the return of, the King, the extraordinary movements which have been remarked in the offices of Marshal Sonit, and Oa t orders, which it is said have been transmitted to t ,renter part of the Colonels, to prepare thenisdves to put their regiments upon the footing of ar. These orders were given to the Chiefs of carps in garrison at Paris yesterday morning.— Leßmelutiort. It cannot be forgotten that it was by the know ledge of the secret dispositions of Austria that the Russians, six weeks since, manoeuvred in Volltynia so as to throw upon the frontiers of Gallicia the corps of Dwernieki ; and that, in fact, they crossed that frontier when Dwernicki had placed his back against it, attacked him by Gallicia, and forced him to la) down his arms, or violate on his part, the pretended Austrian neutrality. Some thing exactly similar is preparing on the side of the Grand Duchy of Posen, and the Russians will dispose themselves to demand from the Prussian neutrality the same services which that of Austria has already rendered them. In seeing, since the death of Marshal Diebitsch, the Russian troops advance towards Pluck, and make a pretence that they would cross the Vistula upon that point, it was thought at first that General Toll had received con siderable reinforcements, and would attempt that bold enterprise to preserve his communications with the Russian provinces; but we know posi tively now,than in approaching Plock, the Russians renounced instantly these communications; that they allowed the Poles to establish themselves be tween them and the Russian frontiers, and that, consequently, they cannot receive,but by the Grand Duchy of Posen the provisions and ammunition which are necessary for them. A letter, which we publish this day proves that in fact Prussia is pre paring to furnish from that side the various wants of the Russian Army, whilst all correspondence between Warsaw and France is intercepted by her, or submitted to delays which are equivalent to a blockade. It is a means of intervention more direct and more decisive. Our Government will certainly feign to see nothing, until such time as it learns that the Prussian Government has decided openly to make common cause with Russia. FRANCE. P.i Kis, JULY 5. G reat movements of troops are taking place, upon all points, towards the Alps and the Belgian frontier, which had been sus pended by telegraphic dispatch, has again com- inenced. General Simmer, who was at Riom for his election, has received an order to proceed im mediately to the army to take the command of a division.— Every thing is daily looking more war like, and there is little doubt that affairs will soon assume a serious aspect. .1. L. Thanks to the new law, the electoral question will be engaged in, and decided iu a very few days, in all points of the kingdom. The crisis of suspence will not be long and the result will calm minds. We have faith in France, and we do not doubt but she will be enlightened upon her dearest interest, the legal maintenance of the revolution of July, order with liberty, peace with honour. The intrigues of clubs, the little factious rampli lets, which serve as preface to commotions, will not prevlil upon the good sense of the majority. Since the Chamber was dissolved, the electoral atmosphere is infected with an hypocritical opi , demic. The chief men of the Centers, who carry themselves so fiercely .upon the benches, who threaten with a hand so furious all progressive ideas, humble now as elti:dren, put ihenise!ves upon their knees tefore their judges, and promise to be wiser for the future. Listen to them ; none of them has done wrong. If they have accepted their part of the bone It of Royal chase, it was in the interest of public order ; if their sons, grand. sons, nephews, cousins, have each had their lot in the distribution of places, it is that it was necessary to the maintenance of the present government ; if af terwards, to gain their salary, they bartered, dimin ished one by one all promised lil , erties, in hatred of anarchy and of the republic. This is their theme to all. Then, if they are consulted upon their fu ture tendency, nothing more edifying than their intentions, nothing more liberal than their p:o -miser.. Let the electors deliver France to them, and they will make a little world arranged in the fashion of the Abbey of St. Pierre. Economies everywhere, privileges nowhere ; national ho nours conciliated with the blessings of peace ; civil discords will fall before their qiws ego, industry will re-appear every where, and agri culture will be pushed to the most beauti ful developements ; here is that which they offer, with singular uprightness, in exchange for their no mination. That is to say, their words of to-day are simply the censures of their former acts, it is to say, that they resign themselves, ambitious as they are, to have the lie given to their faces.— Journal dcs Debats. TIRE DUCHESS or BERRY The English jour nals occupy themselves with the journey of the Duchess of Berry upon the continent, and attach to it a project of counter-revolution; the Times contains upon that subject a very remarkable ar ticle, wie , re the consequences of such a proceeding are perfectly deduced. Another insinuates that the aim of the journey is, in fact, an intrhxue at Ilolyrood against the revolution of July. That there has been money furnished to the fallen family ; that M. Bourmont is the mi litary pivot upon which the enterprise turns. We persist in believing that if such an idea has' entered into the head of some old emigres, they will reflect before putting it in practice : the friends of the interior would hasten to warn a young, ar dent princess upon the consequences of her pro ceeding. If she has really a design to attempt a movement upon France, we may say that that move ment is desired by the Patriot party, in order to re produce the revolution in its original energy, and per haps that which was wanted at the revolution of July, was a royalist resistance, and thus it was marred. We would desire that Madame de Berry should take the best councils, to enlighten her on her position, and that of her family ; but let her distrust the councils of the old man of Holyrood, l whose whole life of emigration consisted in com promising his relations, his friends, and delivering them up whilst he fled to Holy Island, or concealed himself at Edinburgh.—Le Courrier Francais. PARIS, JULY 4.—A letter from Fontenai, re ceived at Nantes by the post this morning says -1" I can tell you for certain that two persons were yesterday (Friday) arrested at Lucon, viz. M. Briqueville, formerly postmaster, and the first clerk of the same office. The order for this arrest came from Bordeaux, where some letters were intercepted, which seriously implicated those gentlemen. The affair seems to be of importance, and to be connected with the South and with Ho lyrood. The greatest celerity wae employed in ex ecuting, this measure, and they are sent to Bor deaux. The Memorial Bordcleis gives an extract of a private letter, dated St. Pierre, Martinique, the 21st of May last:— " In consequence of the sentence of our Court of Assize, condemning to death 26 individuals im plicated in the plot which broke out in the night of the 9th of February, 22 have been executed, two have been recommended to his Majesty's mercy, and two declared at the foot of the gallows that they had important discoveries to make. M. Le Hon, the Belgian minister, left Paris, yesterday, after having had conferences with Messrs. Sebastiani and Belliard. He is probably gone to Brussels to vote, as a member of the Con gress, in the important debate of which we have already given the commencement. The march of troops to the Alps and the frontiers of Belgium, which was for a moment suspended by a telegraphic despatch, has recommenced. General Simmer, who was at Rim on account of his election, has received orders to repair with all haste to the army, to take command of a division. We have received a letter from Calais to the following effect :—" The dearness of provisions in this part of France, and the total stagnation in every branch of trade, could do no less than oc-1 casion the utmost discontent among the lower classes of society, and that discontent has been this day manifested here, in a greater degree than was ever known since the memory of the eldest inhabitant; and the enraged populace have been claiming that without barter or price, which was at too high a sum for their scanty means to purchase. The drums have scarcely ceased beating to arms since about half-past twelve, and the military have been rushing in every direction to quell the exas: , erated populace Many of the National Guards have been roughly treated, and several rich and monopolizing persons of the inhabitants have been loudly threat ened. Some few of the ringleaders are secured, and the rest are well-known by the inhabitants, and will in all probability he brought to justice. The civil and military authorities have neglected nothing that could be done to secure the corn, and other property of the various venders in ,the market, from the depredation of the mob ; and, considering the EVENING STAR. LONDON. THURSDAY. JULY 7. TO COIIIILSPONDENTS. We shall be always happy to serve our Corres;•'n'e:it Mr. C.—whom we pt rionally esteem—when in our power. On calling at the Office, he may consult our tile ut his leisure. At length, thanks to the KING, and to the vir tuous efforts of the Nation, of vivr; HUNDRED AND NINETY-LIGHT Members present in the House of Commons last niglA, TIIREE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-SEVEN Voted in favour of the Reform Bill ; Lein' a majority of ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SIX. The borough play, the enemies of all Reform, or the equivocal friends of some undefined Reform, mustered no less than TWO HUNDRED AND THI RTY-ONr., proving the frightful and dangerous power which had insinuated itself into our Consti tution, and fully accounting for all the mal-adminis tration of the last sixty years. Las energy than the people exerted in the last elections, any distraction of opinions or object, or in short, without the Royal wish as the gaol—this party would still have maintained their usual as cendancy ; and, rivetting our chains, would have left us without hope. Of the fate of the in one House, there is, therefore, no doubt; and we Ratter ourselves, that THE BA ROSS of our day will imitate their ances tors, and merit the gratitude of the People by their cheerful, and even zealous, concurrence. This will heal ali Fast differences and grievances, and render us a happy and united People. The Division took place between FOUR and FIVE this morning, after three days of as able and anxious debate as ever graced the annals of our Parliament. The speakers last night were seriatim, Col. SIBTHORP, against; Lord W. LENNOX, fur; Mr. K. DOUGLAS, against; Sir F. LOPEZ, for Mr. F. LEWIS, against; Mr. J. CAMPBELL, for; Mr. WRANG AM, against; Mr. L. But.wea, for, and with singular force and ability; Lord VA LLETORT, against; Mr. STlticx LAND, for, with some modifications ; Sir C. WE•ritraeLL, against, at great length, mixed with much broad humour ; Mr. WILLIAM BROUGHAM, for; Sir IL PEEL, against, and at great length; Sir F. Buttner'', for, and in his best manner; ' when Lord Jouw ItusseeL summed up. The House then adjourned till Friday. The BELGIC QUESTION still creates anxiety. We thought the late compromise at least a plausi ble one ; but the Patriots of Belgium, who must understand the interests of their own country better than we can, protest with such energy against the 18 Articles, and the reception of PRINCE LEOPOLD, that it is evident the Belgic Throne will be no bed of roses. The Proclama tion, the Debates, and the incipient tumults, prove that the question is not, and may not soon be settled. In truth the apple of discord has been thrown among this people. Just as our paper was going to press, we were favoured with the following extract of a letter to one of the first commercial houses in London, dated Brussells, July 1 think it important to for ward you the Regent's proclamation. No doubt the IS articles will be accepted. M. Lebeau, Mi nister of Foreign Affairs, spoke in Congress two hours to-day, and his speech was of the most elo quent description : even his enemies shed tears. He offered his resignation when he had finished, but it was not accepted. The majority last night in favour of the acceptance of the article was up wards of forty, as was ascertained at a private meeting of the supporters of the measure. France is presenting at this moment such a spec tacle of representative choice, as we hope will be exhibited by England, as soon as the Reform Bill is the operative law of the land. In three days the elections to the Chamber will be finished throughout France, and within a week we shall have a general nation of the results. The •130 Members are now to be returned by all above twenty-five years of age, who pay 200 f•tines, or about eight guineas in direct taxes, or half-pay officers who receive f5O per annum; forming a con stituency of 200,000 instead of 94,000; we may,' therefore, expect returns which will approximate the mind and will of France. The members of the lit:, opposition, gauche, or left, seem to be assured of returns ; and but few of the droit, right, or minis terial party. In spite of royal tours, ministerial circulars, and false statements of improved policy, like that, which deceived us, from the Journal des Debuts, there seems no doubt but the new Cham ber will consist of men favourable to liberal mea sures and free institutions. Regenerated France may therefore, at length, be expected to take its duo station among European Governments, and play a manly and worthy part, without having to pass tho ordeal and miseries of another revolution. By the will of DIEBITSCII, it appears that he was a friend of SEBASTIANI, and hence, pro bably, thesecret influence which has hindered France from taking the part of the Poles. It is lucky for Poland that DIEBITSCH has on his death-bed opened the eyes of France to this intrigue; whiie his death may also open the eyes of all Europe to the bad faith of Prussia, by the passage which she has opened to his successor, as cell as by the sup plies which the Russian Armics notoriously reccive by Thorn from Dantzic. In fact, this' has, at length, them to charge their plan of operations ; and, therefore, abandoning the country fur which they have been fighting for six months, the Russian army is now ranged on the right of the Vistula, from Pluck to Dobrzyn and Lupno, which last is but twenty-miles from Thorn, and close to the Prussian boundaries ! SK RTEN ECK' has in consequence crossed the Vistula, and fixed his head-quarters on the oppo site bank ; and as the Vistula there is as wide as the Thames in Long Reach, the passage in the pre sence of the Polish army seems to be quite impracti cable. We can only consider it as au ex piring effort of the Russians; for they thus abandon all Poland, except in the small ccrps of Runic; En at Lublin, while, in ease of further defeat, it is plain they meditate an escape into Prussia, and to embark at Dantzic. No position, at the same time, can be more favour able to the Poles ; for it is a day's march nearer to Warsaw, on the west of the river, than to the Russians on the cast and north ; and Praga is too strong for surprise. PASKEWITSCH will no doubt endeavour to inspire the Russians with new hopes; but his well-known barbarities in the Kuban and in Georgia, prove that the Poles have no de pendance, but on their persevering courage. This change in the line of the Russian opera tions led to the march of Skrzynecki from Sien nica to Warsaw, and to sinister reports; but, in truth, it now appears that he only passed through Warsaw, to defend the left of the lower Vistula; and now, if the supplies from Prussia were inter dicted by the good faith and the remonstrances of France and England, the Russians could never escape from the corner in which they have placed themselves, except by being permitted to embark at Dantsic. In fact, if encouraged by Prussia to remain in that position, their pestilential army will soon spread the Cholera through all Prussia; there fore a severe quarantine at and near Thorn is due to all Europe. The Foreign Journals received this day indicate, however, that the contrary is the case ; and that the intercourse of the Russians with Thorn is open, unrestrained, and undisguised ! The increase of crimp is a source of general anxiety, and we particularly refer to the observa tions of the Chairman of theWarwickshire Sessions, in our Paper of yesterday. The multitudes committed, the multitudes tried and convicted, and the far greater multitudes unaccused, while all these multitudes increase, instead of diminishing, prove that there must be a Cause which our Legislators overlook, or that the means adopted are not propor tioned to the Force of the causes—and, therefore, neither preventive, nor curative. It is not for want of education, nor of religion, for of these we have more in England than in any country—nor is it from want of severity of punishment, as the records of our Criminal Courts too fully testify. Is not the cause, then, of so great and increasing an evil deserving of some consideration, and its removal worthy of some concessions ? But we have not named it—and why should we ? It is labour in vain—it is arguing with the winds—it is connected with the indulgence and interests of power ! After stating ninety-nine times, that it arises from dis tress and increasing poverty, why should we repeat it the hundredth time ? Have we not a popu- Ilation fifty per cent. greater than fi fty years ago ? And yet .have we not, simultaneously halved the number of farms—the independent means of virtuous and happy subsistence? Ought we, then, to wonder at the increase of recklessness, desperation, and crimes ? The TRIAL of Mr. COBBETT, for some ex pressions employed in his Register, in his advocacy of the cause of the agricultural labourers in De cember last, is now proceeding at Guildhall, Lon don. The AT ru s v-GEN ERA L opened the case; and at half past two, Mr. COBB V.TT had ken addressing the Jury since half-past ten. lle has subreenaed Lords GREY, BROL:GILAM, GODERIC 11, &e. &c. besides witnesses from Kent, Susses, Hants, Wilts, &c. in proof of the actual condition of the country ; and it is expected the trial will last t oor three days. Guildhall and its approaches were exceedingly crowded, and the proceeding has created an intense public interest.
