the State gain or lose by the revenues of Luxemburgh, the annexation is of greater political importance than mere re venue; while to the King of HoLLa AD, so detached a ter ritory, must be a mere question of revenue. At the same time, the nations concerned seem to owe much to the seal with which the British Envoy, Lord PoN- SON BY, appears to be labouring, to reconcile jarring and con tradictory interests; and in spite of Protocols, and Pride, and Pertinacity, we still hope that all the difficulties of of these questions will be speedily adjusted, without further bloodshed. We have the Prussian State Gazette this day, to the 21st instant, bringing intelligence of the operations of the Polish Generals, as far down as the 17th, being eighteen days later than any official accounts which have before reached us. The details which we this day present to our Readers from the above source, and from what we are ena bled to add from the Paris papers, received by us this day, exhibit, in fact, a series of splendid and uninterrupted suc cesses, on the part of the Poles, in which Generals CIIRZANowsxI and DEMBEN SK I distinguished them selves, by a display of energy and military talent, seldom equalled. It is sufficiently proved by these details, that if the Russians are paralyzed, the Poles are not. They have replaced their active corps at Z3MOBC, by a coup de main, in which eight thousand Poles passed through the quarters of the Russian divisions. The Lithu anians are also effecting a powerful diversion, in the rear of the Russian army. A report is current, as will appear by our extracts, that DIEBITSCII is to be superseded; which would not surprise us, after such repeated defeats. The Journal des Debate of Wednesday, states, from the Frontiers of Gallicia of the 10th, that Gereral DW MK' has formally protested against his treatment by the Austrian Government, invoking the Ambassadors of France and Eng land at Vienna there to interfere. If our readers will do us the justice, to compare the foreign intelligence of the STAR this day, with that of any other paper in the metropolis, we are sure they will perceive a continuance of our marked superiority. We particularly direct attention to our extract from the Courier Francais, respecting the logic of the Times and the Journal des Dezats. The article in the Journal des Debats, en which we re marked yesterday, was received on the Bourse as evidence of imminent hostilities, and the Funds gave way in conse quence ; but rallied again. It was also rumoured in Paris, that the Knia's return would be accelerated, to enable him to assist in the councils, under the circumstances which have determined the energetic policy of the Government. Some of our contemporaries are awaiting their usual leader; and that leader is awaiting the turn of the settling day. In the mean time, in the usual confusion of the ideas of others, they are gravely discussing the demand, that the Belgian fortresses should be destroyed ; and one Paris letter, written in London, enlarges eloquently on the said destruction. But if our readers will turn to the article in the Journal des Debats, it will be observed, that it says not a word about destruction; but merely asserts that France can never permit the Belgic fortresses to return into the hands of enemies--" to that destination which they have now lost." Some unhappy fatuity has seized on the members of our hitherto moderato and tolerant Church. Cambridge and Oxford afforded the first evidence of the disaster ; and now we have corroborative evidence, in the fanaticism displayed by certain Churchmen, at a meeting held yesterday at Exeter Hall, for the relief of the suffering Catholics.— The suffering was openly declared, by more than one, to be a visitation of HEAVEN, for the sin of being CATHOLICS ! These pretended Christians forgot the in terrogatory—" Thinhest thou that those were the wickedest in all Israel, on whom the Tower of Siloam fell and slew?" FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. AUSTRIA AND POLAND, TEE LONDON TIMES AND THE JOVIUSAL DUI DEBAT.. From She Courier Fraucais. The Journal des Debate cites some reflections of the Times upon the odious conduct of Austria towards Poland, reflections which we should say had emanated from the den of some despot, rather than from the pen of an English Journalist. The Times thinks that the Austrians have acted conformably to the rights of men, not only in disarming the Poles, but in delivering their arms to their enemies, and to their former masters—the Russians; for the Muscovite au thorities had the right to the arms of the Pelee, considering the arms as Russian property, viewing in the quality of sub jects the insurgent Poles—not being recognized as an inde pendent nation ; or alledging, that these arms would become the property of the Russians, if Dwernicki had not found an asylum upon the Austrian territory ! Whichever it may be, the conduct of Austria cannot, according to the Times, be regarded as a violation of the rights of neutrality. " We have, unhappily, too many recent examples of the applica tion of that rule," adds that Journal, " to doubt of its being applicable to the fact of which we speak." The Times, which cannot prevent letting escape a word of regret—one might say blame—in the mi dst of its appro bation, seems to be conscious of the poverty of it s reason ing. What are, in fact, all the examples of the world against principles ? We know very well that powerful people never fail in means, of trumping up crime against people of less power ; but in what manner can that vindicate iniquity ? How dare any one support that it is not a viola tion of neutrality between two belligerents, to take arms from the one to give them to the other ? Whoever speaks of neutrality, speaks of parallel conduct towards two parties; or the word neutrality is void of sense ; or, we will repeat a question which we have already asked : would Austria have disarmed the Russians, who had violated her territory ; and would she have delivered their materiel to the Poles ? No ; without doubt ; she has then, in the great quarrel, two weights and two measures—preferences and antipathies ; she is then benevolent for the one, and all ready to be hos tile towards the other ; there is nothing assuredly in such conduct, which resembles neutrality. The case which we have put, besides, is not an hypothesis. It is nearly proved that in the circumstance which occurred, it was the Russian General who first violated the Austrian territory, to force his enemy from a position, where, counting upon a veritable neutrality, he remained vulnerable on the side of Austria. Thus, in this case, not only 4us _ it even approved and recompensed the violation. And if we contrast the fact men tioned in the report of Dwernicki—as credible, at least, as the account of the Russian General—another fact, which has not been contradicted, and which we have already cited, is, that the Russian soldiers freely found an asylum upon the Austrian territory, to escape from the Poles; and that they afterwards, when the danger was over, quitted their asylum with arms and baggage ! Let Austria quit, then, this hypocritical character; let her dare openly avow that she is disposed to aid the Russians, and crush the Poles; and she will then prove that there is, in her policy, as much want of foresight as inhumanity.— With a system of policy loss narrow, less roundabout, with a shadow of magnanimity, she would better understand, at once, that which is admirable in the conduct of that great people, whom she would assist to annihilate ; and how much her true interests will be found compromised, by the towering ascendency of the Russians, whom she favors, blinded by ambitious designs. However, there is no thing which can astonish us on the part of Austria ; but, it must be confessed, that we can explain loss easily, the bad sentiments and bad logic of the Times. How can an English writer dare to call the Ru_ skins the masters of the Poles ? How can he say, that their arms are the property of that master ? Is it that the Poles had no arms, when they were ceded to Alexander ? And, besides, does not the Times know that Poland has not been incorporated with Russia ? That, even in that scourge of nations, formed at Vienna, in the name of the kings, who call themselves avengers of injus tice,redressors of conquests, they did not dare to condemn Po land to the ruthless yoke of a despot ? It was a kingdom, united to an empire ; but to remain itself, was it not to be governed by separate laws—to be submitted to a constitu tional regime ? What a miserable subterfuge to say, that Austria must give up the arms, which would have become the property of the Russians, if the frontier had net been there to save them; if that principle is true, it must be equally applicable to the men who would have become pri soners, if their arms bad been taken. Austria dared not do this; she would have incurred universal indignation; she has confined her: elf to an act which will excite less cla mour; but which is not less a flagrant act of violation of neutrality. Alas ! these are the scandalous doctrines—the pitiful reasonings —of the Times, which the Journal des Debats cites with such satisfaction, as having an authority for its fooleries. The opinion given by the Englishjournal, is that which we have expressed ourselves—it says, "we are happy to find in the identity of its doctrines a ju,tification of the principles which we professed upon that question." Certainly, this happiness is not great ; and that joy which the Journal des Debats expresses, in having encountered a second, proves better than any thing else, how bad the cause is which it supports. It comprehends, too, all that which is odious. "We could not console ourselves," it says, " with having taken part against courage and mis fortune, if the rights of man had not made us perform a rigorous duty." We feel in these words the remorse which pierces it, or at least the fear of blame. There is a justice in this world—it will not allow a bad action to pass with impunity ; and it is a bad action to league with the oppres sors of a great nation. awn"' 13wsult was "vim a Win 1 " ualiuli—.luw was sloe OI amine. anus, in inis case, never be purchased at too high a price is money.

The Journal du Commerce of Antwerp has been this day forwarded to us, from which we make the following extract, without vouching for its authenticity : " We are informed," says the Journal, " that Prince LEOPOLD, of Saxe Cobourg, has accepted our crown, on the following conditions : " First—That Belgium shall remain as she was in the year 1790. "Second—That the KING of HOLLAND shall be in demnified for the loss of Luxembourg. " Third —Maestricht to remain a Prusso-Austrian town. " Fourth—The King shall be equally indemnified for the loss of Limbourg, which is to form part of Belgium. " Fifth—The debt shall remain fixed, as set forth in the preceding protocols." _ _ This important intelligence is further confirmed, with some additional particulars, in the following extract, which we make from the Courrier Francais, now before us :-- " We bad reason to think yesterday, in spite of the assertions of some Belgian Journals, that Prince LEOPOLD has accepted the crown. The few details which have arrived to-day, upon the secret committee of the Congress, leave no doubt in that respect. The conditions which are made, appear to be, that the Belgian territory shall extend to all the limits which it had in 1790, save indemnifying the King of Holland. Thus, in exchange for Luxembourg, (less the fortress which will remain to the Germanic confederation,) the Dutch will receive an annual sum of 800,000 francs; end in exchange for Limbourg, (less Meistrecht, which will become a city Prusso-Austrian,) they will touch 400,000 francs per annum. As to the debt nothing is yet definitely settled. The return of Lord Pox sow at to Brussels will hasten, without doubt, the result of that combination, to which France does not appear disposed to put any obstacle ; so much for the energy and foresight of our diplomacy." The Belgian Government has decreed the irrevocable union of Luxemburg!) with the Belgic territory. The five Powers have decreed, that it shall be an appanage of the Dutch crown. Of course, the King of Holland assents; but it so happens, that Belgium directly intervenes between Luxemburgh and Holland, and that the Luxemburghers claim to be united to the adjacent country, and not to be placed under a government, whose intercourse with them must be either through Belgium, or by a long detour through Prussian states. The whole affair is not more absurd, than it would have been, if the five high and mighty Powers had at once re solved to remove the province of Luxemburgh into juxta position with Holland. To indulge some political intrigue, whose object it is to perplex common sense, and put the world in the wrong, the fine province of Luxemburgh is to be isolated, and Belgium to have a Dutch Viceroy on one side, and a Dutch King on the other. France, of course, has assented ; because so perplexing au arrangement assures to her the ultimate dominion of both Belgium and Luxemburgh, and her power over Lux emburgh would render the Dutch King her dependant : while, in the jealousies of such intermingled states, will lie her political influence over both. Then, as to the Holy- Alliance mediators, they, of course, promoted any design, which tended to confuse the partizans of the sovereignty of the people. If we suppose Essex, Cambridge, and Suffolk to be Bel gium, Norfolk would represent Luxemburgh, as to the rest of England ; and we should marvel if, in any arrangement, the independence of Essex, Cambridge and Suffolk were recognised, but Norfolk assigned to the King of Middlesex &c. If confusion were not intended, then the statesmen concerned ought to be the head-men at Gotham ; and if in tended, they ought not to be allowed to abuse the name of mediators. But the die is cast, and if the Belgians will not submit to these terms, the kind mediators become enemies; they withhold further intercourse ; and they place Belgium out of the Law of Nations—for, forsooth, the other party, the King of HOLLAND, agrees. Now if the elections in England have not fallen wholly upon fox-hunting squires, may we not hope that some con siderable portion of the new House of Commons will demand an explanation of these extraordinary protocols? We have not the proximate relations of France, and her public policy, for desiring to extend her territory to the Rhine; and we are not under the influence of those principles of government which necessarily influence the other three parties : it will then be curious to learn, on what grounds the name of the minister of our liberal government was affixed to the protocols of January and of May. A fact, however, has just transpired most creditable to our Ministers. They have consented to the admission of the Belgic Flag into our ports. And what is inconceivable, the Brussels papers, in the face of the last protocol, say that it is arranged, that Luxemburgh, on certain terms, is to be united to Belgium. If the concession is money, or an annual grant, we hope it will be made—since peace can GERMAN PAPERS RECEIVED THIS DAY. Wmictw, MAT 16.—The Warsaw Casette of today, says"... Up to this moment we have no official accounts of the events of the last days; and especially of the battle fought by General Chrzanowski near Lubantow, respecting which there have been reports in circulation for some days past. The movements undertaken by Count Diebitsch, on his left wing, are said to have led to minimums on our aide; which have, hitherto, been executed without obstacle, and without leading to any important event. _ _ The action which took place on the 13th, near Ralussyn, was be tween inconsiderable detachments. On our side were the Grenadier regiment, formerly of the Guards, the 3d of the Chasseurs, and part of the Cavalry of General Uminski's Corps. It is said that the Rus sian began the action, and chiefly the regiments of the Lithuanian and Volhynian Guard; which, at the breaking out of the revolution, were in Warsaw, and now fight against us with the greatest inveteracy. Our grenadiers made an attack with the bayonet, and caused the enemy to sustain a considerable loss. We did not suffer much; but the loss of Major Serkowski, of the grenadier regiment, is much to be lamented. Lieut.-Col. Niewenglowski, who commanded that regiment, has been brought to Warsaw, having received a contusion. The letter sent by Gen. Prondaynsl'i, to the chief of the staffof the Russian army, by order of the Generalissimo, has been returned, as we hear, unsealed, to our advanced posts. It is also said, that Count Diebitsch has declined the proposal for an exchange of prisoners. The Warsaw Slate Gazette has the following news:—" Frost ' TUE CAMP OPPOIITI PULAWY, MAT 12 :—The corps of General Deekinski is just now going over the right bank of the Vistula. The patrols that have been sent out, report that the Russians are also re treating from Hasimiers. Pulawy is already occupied by our troops (now at noon). We hear a heavy cannonade at a distance." " In the province of Lublin, the Russians haver also retired from the banks of the Vistula ;on the 12th, their rear was in Garbow. But on main army has likewise begun a retrograde movement since that day. On the 13th. there were some skirmishing in the rear about Kalassyn, and on our left wing beyond Pultusk." The State Gazette has also the following news : " Accounts from Lublin of sheik'', say,that an Austrian officer bad brought intelligence to General Kreuts, of the retreat of Dwernecki into Gallia% General Davidoff is shortly expected back with four regiments of dragoons, hussars, and Cossacks ; be is said to have already repassed the Bug at Krubiedzow. The cavalry of Plock, yesterday brought to Warsaw 158 prisoners taken by General Chrsanowski at Kuck ; some Cossacks picked up on the way, seven regimental chaplets taken at Kock. Several thousand Bastbkins have joined the Russian army in the province of Lublin. Some Bavarian physicians have lately arrived at Warsaw. and Dr. Automarchi, Napoleon's physician, who is now a► Cracow, is expected here. The If Gazette gives accounts from Brody of the 6th, stating that on the sth, Gen. Rudiger bad caused 7'e Denys to be performed at Radsiwillow, on account of the victory over Dwernicki's corps; and had then, in consequence of the orders that he had received, set out to proceed by forced marches to Breese-Litewaki. The same paper mays—" We learn that for six days past, Count Diebitsch has received new supplies by the road from Dram- Litewski. A Danish and French physician have lately arrived in Warsaw, for the hospitals in the capital ; the English physicians, in particular, are eminently serviceable in surgical operations. A report is just spread, on the authority of news, sent by a Post- Malta, that Gen.

Balms, May 20.—The' State Gazette' gives a table of a number of persons attacked by the cholera, in the city of Warsaw, and in the camp near it, from April 23 to May 6, with the deaths, cures, frt. In these 13 days, the number of sick was 4,680; 1,110 had died, 192 recovered ; and 1278 remained sick. However, the number of new cases gradually deceased ; for, on the twenty-eighth of April, there were 388 new ass; lit of May, 332; the 4th of May, only 141; and the 6th, only 192. The Sisk Gaul* contains also long accounts front Riga, of the 126, and Falangist, of the 14th May, of leaden. actions between the Russians and the insolvents. The lame bad been defeated, with con. Manilas loss; and there was softy men to suppose that the troubles in Samogitis would soon be quelled, is the peasantry were retuning is great numbers to their homes, and had resumed their usual comp,. dons ; but they needed the protection of the troops against th e l aw k is vagabonds, who, having nothing to lose, find their advantage in d e; disorders. Rigorous measures will probably be necessary against th e latter; but the peasants, and most of the landowners, will soon return to order.

St. PETICUBIYIIO, May 7.—His Majesty the Emperor has receirtd a report, announcing that the government of Volhynia has been entirely cleared of the Polish rebels who bad entered it, under the rentmand O f General Dwemecki. Lieutenant General Rudiger, after Having granted to his troops the repose of which they had need, after having defeatrd the corps of Dwemecki, on the 19th of April, near Boromel, r. solved to march against the rebels, to attack them, and drive them to the Au k trian frontier : accordingly, he made his arrangements for theextrotto m of this plan. After having deprived them of every means of maintain. ing their ground, in the government of Volhynia, and propagating th e revolt, the Gen. pursued them, and forced them to retreat to the frontiers of Gallicia ; on the 26th of April, Gen. Dwernicki occupied near that fron;ier a position on the heights, near the tavern of Luli ; General Rudiger, leaving the village of Bloskalewki, marched towards that of Kouliak, to attack the rebels; the difficulty of the road, intersected by deep ravines and defiles, which were to be passed in sight of the enemy, delayed the movement of our troops. On the 27th, at day-break, Lieutenant-General Rudiger led them to action ; the infantry, in two columns, fell on the centre and left wing of the position of the rebels; the third division of Hussars, with three regiments of the first division of dragoons, had been ordered to turn their right flank, and to cut off their retreat towards the Government of Podolia. A road through a cood, leading to the position of the rebels, and by which they might have fallen back upon Radzlwillow, was meets pied by part of our Infantry, and the Kargopol Regiment of Dragoons: the rebels preserving their position, seemed as if they intended to accept the combat; but at the moment that our infantry and cavalry made an impetuous attack ; the first, after having passed two deep ravines; and the second, after turning the left flank of the enemy's position ; the latter immediately gave way, and saved themselves in all haste, in the Austrian territory, to the frontiers of which they were pursued by our cavalry. On this occasion we killed a great number of them, and took nearly 200 prisoners. The flight of Deernicki into Austria was the only means that could have saved his corps from complete destruction. General Rudiger was soon informed that, according to the conditions imposed by the Austrian authorities in Gal. licia, on General Dwernickl and his corps; they were to lay down their l arms, and undergo quarantine, according to the regulations which those authorities would prescribe.

MAY 16.—The Ruuian army has again advanced some. what nearer to Warsaw, part of which, with the Guards, have marched in the direction of Plock. _ _ On the 13th instant, a considerable Polish force, under the Cowman. der.in.Chid, made a forced march of eight German milts, and the head quarters were on that day established at Jablonna, and on the evening of the 14th at Serock, about 18 miles (English) fkom Praga, and now at Pultusk. With this party, forming the right wing of the Russian army intelligence of a Little is daily expected; its issue will, no doubt, add ' fresh laurels to Polish valour. The main Polish army is considerably advanced beyond Pultusk. Dembi Wielki is occupied, beyond which point the Russians are not likely to advance; they have already suffered here severely on two et• casions, and refused to give battle on the 28th ult. although demon. strations to that effect were made by their main army. In addition to the affair in Hock, detailed in the Commandet.in. chiefs despatch of the 11th inst. a report has reached us, that out troops met those of the enemy under General Witt, between Ea. mienka and Ltsbartou, where the latter was dispersed. On the um date, the 12th inst. Pulawy was again in possession of the Poks, from whom a distant cannonade was heard at noon. General Chnanowski is said to have cut his way through the united forces of the enemy, probably the corps of Kreutz and Witt, and gone in the direction of ZSMOIC with a force of 8,000 met, from which fortress he will receive reinforcements, and penetrate into Voihynia and Lithuania. This news is believed, but still requires coofirmadon. The enclosed document from the Lithuanian insurgents to the Na. tional Government is of great interest, and will impart strong emotion' to all who prize independence. The events in Lithuania, you will re. mark, are detailed to the 20th April, on which day, according to in. formation brought here on the 13th inst. a battle took place. The insurgents encamped near Kemowy, 27 miles English from Wilna, on the road to Kovno. The Russians advanced against them with 4 battalions, 400 cavalry, and 4 cannons. Prince Oginski and Count Charles Zaluski commanded the insurgents. The Samogielan infantry was commanded by Bilewia, and the Upltsche cavalry by Prawn:tusk'. The combat extended to Owsianiszki, and continued the whole day. Vincent Matuuiewicz brought succours to the Li thinnians during the combat, in which the Russians were beaten, and compelled to retreat with great loss. A general enthusiasm reigns through the Polish province of Same gide. All the male population are under arms: they swear, on the tombs of their forefathers, to shed the last drop of their blood rather then submit to the Russian yoke. Even children of 12 years of age are armed with scythes and axes. The news communicated to them that several insurgents have been shot in Wilna has had the effect of increasing the courage and exertions of the inhabitants. The clergy animate them with the spirit of liberty; they preach in the fields; their pathetic discourses operate on the hest and dispose the hearers to brave glorious death. The women punks of the same feelings, some of whom fear not to travel many leagues to bring their husbands the necessaries of life. It is therefore clear, flan the conduct of the Samogitism and Lithuanians, and the known sentiments of others, that all the pro ' vinces formerly belonging to Poland will make common cause with the kingdom of Poland. The ferocious ukases of the Emperor of Rads' do but increase their hatred, and render opposition more determined : the measure of oppression was :full, life became a burden, and liberty or glorious death must result from the contest. Troops are *heady 00 the route to Lithuania, se also experienced officers and subalterns, to discipline the volunteers, who you will perceive must be formidable, ss well in physical force as the spirits that animate them. To TIM NATIONAL GOVERN MENT.—I have the honour to art. nounce to the National Government, that General Chnianowski ocespiis Kock, where be fell in with the rear-guard of the Russian Genesi Thiemen, composed of Cusack., and of the cavalry regiments of Cssr nonimikiand Attamanski, which are considered as the ailed the Rus sian light cavalry. This rear-guard also consisted of many two, making part of the 34 cap of the cavalry of reserve. Without the loss of a single soldier, General Chrsenowski made 150 plumes in Kock, among whom, are four officers. He has takes alto 18 baggage-waggona, loaded with various military effects, and another carrying portable camp diapels; a magazine, containing a considerabk quantity of cloth, also fell into his possession. An Airkle.cantp of General Kraus, named Kindrakoffi is among the prisoners; lsatly, be took 8093 Polish &rim in silver, which has been forwarded to the gr. neral military chest. The regiments Czamomorski and Memorial saved themselves by swimming across the river Weepy, near Lysointi. (Signed) SKRZYNECKI. Jedrsejow, may 11, 1831.
