These Powders produce an effer vescing Draught extremely grateful to the palate, as well as at the same time a mild and cooling Aperient, pecu liarly adapted to relieve Indigestion, Heartburn, and Nausea, and counteract Acidity in the stomach. If frequently taken, they will obviate the necessity of having recourse to Calomel, Epsom Salt, and other strong and nauseous medi cines, which often debilitate the system without producing the desired effects. When taken after too free an indul gence in the luxuries of the table, particularly after too much wine, the usual disagreeable effects ale prevented. Sold in Boxes at 2s. 9d., by Messrs.

IN the morning o f Life, when the blandish ments of passion .‘ take the reason prisoner," it is an evil more to be lamented than wondered at, if, in the vortex of deceptive pleasure, the unhappy traitor against the laws of nature pays in lonely disappointment a fearful exaction for his rebellion in the compromise of his mental as well as bodily powers. To all persons so circumstanced as to require the professional aid of men of experience, whose time has been for twenty years studiously and suc cessfully devoted to the complaints arising from nervous debility, whether natural or acquired, GOSS and CO. proffer the most consolatory assurances. The youth who has enervated his frame by the strangely fascinating sin, which the poor victim of folly will too readily comprehend without further description, may find relief from his misery, and be kindly taught to regain his lost place in the scale of creation. The sufferer who, from another extreme of in dulgence, has with unhashful forehead, wooed debility, may learn to renovate nature, and repair his abused con stitution. The man of pleasure exposed to and suffering trorn Lues Veneres, however aggravated by malpractice of the quack, or the concealment from diffidence, may find a certain restoration ; and finally in cases where the delay of a connubial pledge has almost extended disappointment to despair, they offer to the married female those hopes which she can reasonably appreciate.

MURDER. AT BILLERICAY.—On the 27th of May a young man, an agricultural labourer, JOSEPH Lows, was committed to Chelmsford ga,oinamed a charge of administering blue vitriol and corrosiveuspuobn n sub limate to a young woman named ANN Reeves, with i conversation,''o. o wa r n d nd in tent to cause miscarriage. Lows lived as servant with Mr. GEORGF. GLADWIN, a farmer at Great Burstead, and between him Reeves, who was his fellow servant, an in timacy occurred, and the girl proved in the family way. The fact, it appears, was known to one or two of the girl's acquaintance, but not to her master's family, and about a fortnight ago Lowe persuades! her to procure some drugs, and, if possible, cause abortion. Lowe accordingly p ro _ cured the corrrosive sublimate and blue vitriol, and the girl took them. The fact was soon discovered, and, Lowe being apprehended, was fully committed for trial for ad ministering the drugs, the girl's life not being then sup posed in any great danger. The operation of the poisons, however became more rapid, and about two o'clock on Thursday last the girl expired.

On Monday night, pursuant to adjournment, a public meeting took place at the Rotunda, Black friars, for the purpose of fur:her discussing the pro priety of addressing his Majesty, to take into imme diate consideration the present alarming state cf Ireland, as to the famine now raging in that country. Ilibbert took the chair. _ Mr. KEENE, an Irish gentleman, after drawing a frightful picture of the distress that now prevails in his unhappy country, and of the essential service , he rendered to England on the embattled field, thought it would not be looking for too much to a'k for Irishmen, the same boon and indulgence which Cesar gave to the horses that accompanied him i n the field of battle. Mr. CLEAVE followed on the same side, and in corroboration of the appalling misery that now pre vails in Ireland, read extracts of a letter from, a friend of his in Dublin, dated on last Saturday, which stated that, from the accounts received on that morn ing from the provinces, a general riving of the pea santry might be hourly expected. The writer further stated, that the Rev. Mr. Armstrong, who created the disturbance at the meeting lately held at Exeter-hall, was a curate of the Established Church at Monastereven, in Ireland, and was an agent of the Reformation Society, at 150/. a year. Several other speakers addressed the meeting, when the address to his Majesty was unanimously agreed to. CHELMSFORD PETTY SESSION, JUNE 3. William Byfoot, an old pensioner, was charged with disturbing a " love feast," and breaking the windows at the house of one Mrs. Hannah Dawson, a modern saint, vulgarly called a Ranter, living in the parish of Mountnessing. Mrs. Dawson, a simple-looking being, arrayed in the habiliments of the " order," after several pre paratory sighs, evangelical capers, and vacant stares, related the circumstances of the offence. Her mental habitation was at Mountnessing, where one Win. Archer—a gentleman who, by the bye, kept bath the body and soul going, for he made cart wheels and sermons—lodged. Mary Wood, the daughter-in-law of the defendant, another rosy checked saintly personage, lodged there also, and between this precious pair something of an earthly anti-Malthusian flame arose. The defendant had long sought to withdraw Mary Wood from this abode of grace, and last night, " being instigated by malt liquor, and not having the fear of the tread-mill before his eyes," he went to the house and broke all the windows, in order to let out the spark which war within. The damage was laid at 30s. Mary Wood corroborated, with a lisp, and a blush, and a smile, the lodging, the love-making, and the window-breaking story. Defendant here exclaimed—" All I want is to get the young woman away; he means her no good he shan't have her." William Archer said that the defendant followed; him last night, whilst he was walking with Miss Wood, and threatened to send him to Paradise on the top of an oaken bludgeon ; be therefore prayed sureties of the peace. BENCH—YOU seem to be a dangerous fellow ? Defendant—Yes, and I will be a dangerous fellow for him, too. This aggrievance has laid in my breast a long time. BENCH—Then you must be sent to cool it on Springfield-hill. You'd be committed if you can't find fiureties ? Defendant—l'll find no insureties. The defendant was then committed in default of paying the damage and finding sureties. MAYOR'S COURT. THE OLD B OAR'S BEAD. HOOPER AND SHARIAND V. THE CITY OF LONDON. This was a case of compensation under the London Bridge Approaches' Act. The claimants were the owners of the house No. 2, Great East Cht ap, in days of old, the celebrated Old Bo ar ' s Head, in which Falstaff and the Prince, and Poins and Pistol caroused. Tha claim made by Messrs. Hooper and Sharland who are tea agents, amounted to 2,1861., of which 1,4861 were required for the lease, and 7001. for the loss by removal. The fixtures had been agreed upon at 132/. 15s. 6d. The COMMON SERJEANT, for the city, called three surveyors, Mr. Montague, Mr. Higgins, and Mr. Smith, who valued the lease at the different rates of 4471., 4921., and 5061. Sir J. SCARLETT, for the claimants—Now that the world was employed in rubbing away the nest of antiquity, he trusted that the city of London would be included in the improvements, and that the Courts of Compensation would undergo, what they greatly wanted—a wholesome and thorough cleansing. He trusted that the time was approach ing fast, when the city of London would not have the power to determine in its own way, to have the business transacted before its own Judge, by its own Counsel, and in every respect to press upon the claimants. He considered, that however dignified might be the conduct of the Learned person who presided, that person could not be looked upon as an impartial Judge in deciding upon a question affecting the interests of the corporation.—(A laugh.) The Learned Counsel then stated that, the house to which he would call the attention of the Jury was once the Old Boar's Head, memorable for being the place in which Shakspeare made his immortal Fa/staf " the cause of wit in others," in which Hal and his companions had been in the habit of perpetuating their orgies, and Mrs. Quickly and Doll Tearsheet gave additional life to the scene. The RECORDER—The exploits of the day you speak of would, if they were committed in the pre sent day, give some work to the Recorder. Sir JAMES SCARLETT said that the City Police were now so powerful and so dexterously instructed, that no Prince could do what Henry the Fifth had done, according to dramatic authority. The Cor poration of London, whatever could be the reason of it, did not appear to pay much regard to the classical associations of that great depositary of wit and humour, and merriment, the Boar's Head. He deprecated the idea of throwing a slight upon the question of private interests. It was a general ob servation that private interests were of necesity absorbed in public interests; but he would say, and he spoke it rafter long experience, that nothing was calculated to do so much good as to impress a pro found respect for private property. The dictum which estabiished the rule in favour of the disre gard for the property of individuals, was the argu ment of despotism, the casuistry of the tyrant, who took what might be wanted. Nothing ought to be 'taken from a man but what might be compensated for. Now in this case the claimants were s erious losers, by being o blig e d to leave the premises in question. The trade which the claimants followed required a lightsome premises. His claimants being tea agent s an d colonial brokers, were constantly In the habit of examining the article with which they supplied the public. The COMMON SERJEANT.—I should think that the best way of judging of tea would be by the palate, not by the eye.—(A laugh.) Sir JAMES SCARLETT Said that a good light Was in . dispen sa bl e . H e t h en state d that the taking up of the (had bodies in St. Michael's churchyard, a few weeks ago, was productive of the greatest Poo- Bible annoyance to his clients, us the tenants of th trace were piled up on a spot close to his premises. ; 10 (1 corrupted the air, to the peril of the health 01 ledger.:. In some cave; the workmen were take' ill, and in one case a death took place. The re moval would, in feet, the Learned Counsel cot,. ended, cause the most distigreeable effects. There. Nes r...n old Dutch saying, " Three removals are as bad as a fire;" and his clients had found out already that one removal was as bad as the third of a fire.—(Laughter.) Wit nes ses proved that the claimants received a regular profit to the amount stated in the Learned Counsel's speech, and that the exhumation of the dead produced a most horrible nuisance. The CoMMON SERJEANT said that his Learned Friend had ingeniously turned the church-yard to his advantage, if the Jury were to be hoaxed into a belief that the removal of the dead bodies was any ground of compensation. He ridiculed the notion of demanding so enormous a sum for a eel of lodgings, from which the occupiers might have de parted whenever they pleased. The Jury settled the claim at 707/. 10s.—viz. 5041. for the lease, and 293/. /Os. for the loss by removal. - - THE RIVER NIGER. (From a Correspondent of the Observer.) From the length of time that I remained a t Old Calabar and Bonny, in the Bight of Biafra, I was decidedly of opinion that the exit of the Niger must be in that situation. This conclusion was not come to hastily, but from accurate examination of many natives from the interior, to whom I could trust for the clearnes s of their description, which was this, " that long way up country large water." Those individuals came in canoes to Old Calabar and Bonny, which plainly indicated that the communication was by water, and the time occupied in coming to the coast was upwards of " one moon." The natives also mentioned that " large water make small water,"—that is to say, the large river subdivided itself into many inferior rivers, one of which they had come down. Those opinions I had the pleasure of communicating to Captain Clapperton previous to his last and ill fated journey ; and he perfectly coincided with me, that from all he knew of Africa, there was no place so likely for the debouche of the Niger as the Bights of Biafra or Benin. It may not be uninteresting to your readers to know something regarding the debortchure of the Niger, as now ascertained by the intrepid Landers. Between Cape Formosa and the River Cameroons there are eight rivers. Cape Formosa is in lat. 4. 15. N. and long. 5.10. E. Cameroons River in lat. 3. 15. N. and long 9. 0. E. The names of the principal_ rivers are Rio Formosa, Bonny River, New Calabar River, Old Calabar River,'Rio del Rev, Bimbia River, am./ Cameroons River. The Old Calabar and Cameroons River are the largest, up both of which I have been to the distance of one hundred and fifty miles. It seems to me a very singular circumstance that the Landers came to the Atlantic by the Nun River, as it is a very inferior stream, and it is to be supposed that they would always keep the course of the largest. However, this will in due time be explained. It is all alluvial soil from Cape Formosa to Cameroons; indeed, I might say, that from the River Lagos, in the Bight of Benin, to Cameroons, in the Bight of Biafra, the country has the same appearance, except about the Rio del Rey and Cameroons, where very high land e xists. Opposite the River Ca labar stands, at the distance of eighteen miles, the island of Fernando Po, the most insalubrious spot on the face of this habitable globe, not even excepting the certain death-bed of Europeans— Sierra Leone. The Kings on this part of the coast are generally intelligent men, particularly the King of Old Calabar and the King of Bonny, and possessed of immense wealth. Both of them can read and write with the greatest ease ; and it was from the King of Old Calabar (with whom I resided 15 or 16 months,) that I re ceived information enough to impress on m y mind that the Bight of Biafra was the outlet to some immense interior river or lake. The Lan ders must have had sad difficulties to contend with, as it is well known that even' the natives of the coast, trading up those rivers, have fre quently been massacred. The B rasse nat i on, through whic h they passed, are considered, by all the natives on the coast of the Bight of Biafra, as the most ferocious and sanguinary race of men with whom they have to deal ; and considering the characters of the Biafrans them selves, I am not aware under what name to class the Brasse nation.

THE RIOTS AT MER MYR TYDVIL.—We reg ret to state that the melancholy result of the rencontre between the miners and the military on Friday has only had the effect of rendering the former more determined in their resolve not to return to work unless the demands w hich they have made be complied with. A large body of the military from all the adjacent quarters had reached t h e scene of riot, at the date of the latest letters (yesterday afternoon) received this morning, There bad been no further attempt on the part of the miners to re-commence rioting, but it is to be regretted that they show no desire to return to work. Mr. Alderman THOMPSON had arrived on the spot, and was immediately on his arrival e ngaged in tracing out the cause of the disturbance. An i n quest was to h e h e ld e i ther on Monday or yesterday 011 the bodies of the people killed in the rencontre. It is to be feared that more lives than we at first stated have been lost in this melancholy affair ; upwards of 50 have been severely, and many of them dangerously wounded. A fatal accident occurred to a man employed at Goderich Court, Monmouthshire, the seat of Dr. MET RICK, who, in a letter, explains, that in order to celebrate his MAJEszv's birth-day he had some cider distributed to his men, and that time deceased, who had come from Bristo to put down some east-iron pipes to heat an apartment it, his house, cut one of them, and loaded each part with gun powder for the purpose of discharging them. His friends remonstrated with him, but he was determined in his pur pose, and on the Ktt-lo's health being given he discharge!! them, when unfortunately they burst, and shattered hi head and limbs to pieces. He has left a wife and ten chal d re n.—Mon/71011thshire PRICE 7D. FOR bit:. N INTELLIGENCE. FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Messager de Chambres, of Monday) . - PARIS, JUNE s. —The Gazette of Thurgovia po :itively confirms the news which we have given of !}te approach of the Austrian troops to the frontiers if Switzerland. The tenth part of thee troops is armed ‘vith carbines. This news, adds the paper t;ovc- quoted, deserves all the attention of the federal tut horities.—Sentifzelle Genevoise. A letter from Forbach, of the Ist June, gives us the following inttiligence :—" It is announced that General Russell, of the garrison of Treves, is gone to review the troops at SzaTelonis, and to make pre parations for the reception of Prince William. The men of the Landivehr who are called out ate those who have already served two or three years. Among the reports, which I think need confirmation, it is affirmed that an army of 130,000 Austrians is going to be formed on the frontiers of Bavaria, and that the Cabinet of Vienna has called upon that of Munich to take a part, arid that the latter has de vlared positively that it must and will remain in the stalu quo." It is reported that disturbances took place at Deux Pouts on the 23d of May, and that flags of various colours were carried about the town. A letter from Colmar, of June 1, contains the fol lowing particulars :—" All the roads in the Aus trian States are crowded with troops. Au army of 60,000 or 80,000 Inca is forming on the frontiers of Bavaria, and Lindau is full of soldiers. The Em pwor has summoned to arms the population of that part of Hungary which adjoins Turkey." (From the Constituticnnel of Sunday.) FRONTIERS OF SPAIN, MAY 30.—For some days past great preparations have been making in the palace in the city of Pampeluna. Several apart. mints are being new furnished, though it is not known in whose honour; but the clergy and abso lutists who, as we know, are always well informed, say, that this edifice is intended to be the residence of the membets composing the regency of Henry V., who, they say, will come and reside there with his mother, while Charles X. and the Duke of Angou leme will go and live in Austria. Many persons cannot imagine that our Government can think of thus defy ins that of France, unless, indeed, a war should break out against that country on other points, which is not improbable. However this may be, the Spanish Cabinet in this, as in many other things, is ready to commence hostilities in twenty four hours, anil there is oily the patriotism of the southern provinces to oppose it. (From the Journal des Debats.) We can guarantee the authenticity of the follow- lug news:— " The States of several Hungarian provinces (to which that of Bartz has set the example) have had the boldne-s to address representations to their King Francis, in which they recapitulate the benefits Hun gary received from Poland in the wars against the Turks,—the great fault which Austria committed in sactificing a country which protected her against Russia to a sordid and temporary interest, and in which they now solicit, lsr., The immediate revo cavon of the ordinances which prohibit the expor tation of arms and provisions to Poland : 2d, The convocation of a Diet to deliberate on the means of ameliorating the condition of the Poles." We know not what effect these representations have had. FRANCE. THE KING AND ROYAL FAMILY AT ST. CLOUD—TROUBLES AT TARAS CON—SUCCESSES AND PRESENTPO. SITION OF THE POLES—DEMANDS OF HUNGARIAN STATES—ELEC. TION OF PRINCE LEOPOLD. TO THE EDITOR OF THE 31ORNING CHRONICLE. Paris, June 5, 1831. SIR, —Yesterday evening I drove down to St. Cloud, and paid my respects, at the appointed hour, to our Citizen King and his interesting family. I was an evening of reception, and the apartments in the right wing of the Palace were crowded with re spectable and even wealthy citizens. There were few Peers, still fewer Deputies, and not all of the Ambassadors; but the paucity of titled names was compensated for by the abundance of intelligent and enlightened citizens, who, as officers of the National Guards, came to represent their respective companies, to wish his Majesty a good journey, and, of course, a safe return. The_ King was in good health, walked round the rooms, and conversed with a vast many persons, looked gay and happy, smiled at his children, regarded with tenderness his wife, spoke to the ladies, bowed and thanked ail for their good wishes, and withdrew. The Duke of Orleans, who thinks and feels that the sure way to gain the voices of the men is to win the hearts of the women, was, as usual, most attentive and affable to " the life, grace, and ornaments of so ciety." He is not so talented as his younger brother, the Duke of Nemours, but he is honest, amiable, and well informed. The young Duke of Nemours spent his time in conversing with the colonels and inferior officers of the National Guard. He re membered the names of all present, and asked after those who were absent. He pays very little atten tion to either Generals or Admirals, Ministers or Princes, but he seems to feel, though not sixteen years of age, that the middling classes are the strength of a nation and the supporters of a throne. The young Duke d'Aumale, who is nine years of age, was also there. He is .a charming boy and a general favourite. The Prince de Joinville, who is thirteen, is at Corsica, and ha entered the marine service. And the little Duke de Montpensier, who is a pretty fellow, not seven years old till next July, remained near his mama, and was admired for his good. behaviour. There is no , certainly a handsomer family in France than that of our Citizen King. I suspect that none of them will be so talented as the Duke of Nemours, though, when some years younger, this was not predicted of him. I remember once entering Neuilly with a friend, and seeing the Duke of Orleans with the Prince of Joinville on one knee, and the Duke d'Aumale on the other, whilst the .Duke of Nemours was hammering and stammering through a lesson which he did not appear to get through with much adroitness. His father kept us waiting till the lesson was got through, and then, with great good humour, said, " Well, gentlemen, you see my boy is not co forward as I could wish, but he has a good heart." The Queen last night looked remarkably well, but she was dressed most simply, and becoming the mother of a large family of boys and girls. The three Princesses were all present. I iinow not which to admire most. They wore no jewels, and made no display. They were dressed in white, anti were affable, but dignified, and supported their station with propriety of conduct, not austerity of manners. When I see them separate, I think I love the last one the best, but when I see them together, I love them all alike. One has charming hair, another lively eyes, and a third a foot of sym metry, and a hand for an artist or sculptor ; one is a little roguish, and another a little melancholy, and it third not a little studious. In their hearts they wish themselves back at Neuilly again, and they would each give their right hand if their father were not King.l do not know enough of them to speak about tl e r talents, but every one praises their virtue, their discretion, their simplicity, their amiable the jewels of the East, and all the camels of Ethiopia. As I looked on the scene I. will tell you. what t. sal,l—" What a pity it is that this man does no-, unders an tan honestdthere citizen,volution an exemplary oflB3o! bus here isa b g in oo d : father, and the model of a private gentleman, exposing hi: family, his country, and all Europe, to evils of a serious and sad nature, because he is advised, an d adopts the advice, of not marching with his peopl e He believes, perhaps, he is right ; and ne is told, I am sure at least fifty times a day, aat the Vit3i3 milieu' his is only chance.

Sooner or later I hope he will do so ; far, honestly speaking, I should be sorry to have a hair of his head hurt, or to have his heart made sad for even half an hour ; but yet, he must match with ac Revolution." I conversed with but few persons, and remained not quite an hour. An officer of the National Guards whispered in my ear," I wonder what they will say at Metz to him ;" and as I descended the staircase, I asked a friend of Casimir Perier's, whe ther the journey of the King was expected to in fluence the elections in Alsace ? He smiled and Party S • wasruns y say sa d so v ; tehry butt we Prince must wait and see. feeling gh j ia " t e n op vo :) '' f ' d ' of A t Saxe th e soiree it Coburg was elected King of Belgium—hut some said by a majority of 10, others by one of 100. It was all a matter of guess, and no one knew any thing about the matter. Thus ended my excursion, and I returned to Paris. I must turn from a happy family end Court re ceptions, to troubles at Tarascon and disputes at Grenoble. Tarascon, you know, is a town of France, in the department of the mouths of the Rhone, with a castle seated on the Rhone oppsite Beaucairt, with which it communicates lef a bridge of boats ; it hire a trade in oil, brendy, starch, and •ilk stuffs—is nine milee north of Arles, and fourteen east by south of Nismes. Weil, at Tarascon, on a recent day in the month of May (a fie for the exact day), the inhabitants being attar:lid to tle Revolution of 1830—to the create of civil and re ligious liberty, and to the moving or active perty, and not the Doctrinaires, determined on planting the " Tree of Liberty." The tree was decorated with loyal colours, for they were red, white, awl blue ; and with inscrip•ions, such as " Five la Lilierie I" " Vice la Revolution !" and " Vice Louis Philp This was a crying evil in the eyes cf the PerlCr party and his Prefect and agent, and so the order was given to remove the tree, and destroy the emblems. This was the first act of folly, and all the rest which followed were the necessary results of this step of arbitrary power and petty tyranny ! But who were to execute these orders ? Why some e L w a e t r i e ce o r i s ti ! ered So t t o hez t a h r d ri r ved aV, o a n n the d h a s v p ; o n t x — ci t f i l t, e oi p w e y o ., P ll l the Lancers were ordered to charge " bleat (said the people), will 'you charge us, because ‘'‘,.e ? defend the tree of liberty, and the national colon's " —This appeal was successful, and the Lancers refused to obey ! So, when the authorities learnt this, they sent for some hundred troops of the line, and some pieces of cannon, and they were ordered to proceed to the spot—to arrest the soldiers and the citizens—to take down the tree of liberty—and, by force, to put an end to this state of insubordination . : Se,;in due form and order, the troops were drawn up, and the law against mobs was read, and the de mands to retire were officially made, and then the soldiers were commanded to fire l! But were the people intimidated ?—No. Did they resign their tree of liberty ?—No. The people fraternised with the soldiers, and the soldiers with the people ; arid though some damage was done, and some few were hurt by the violence of the Royalist officers, ilre result was that the authorities were defeated—that the people were triumphant—and that the Prefect and Mayors despatched courier after courier - , and telegraphic communications one after the other as quickly as possible, in order to procure orders how to act. The Misiister has published his version of ;he story—has promised that the tiotent irhall he tried—that a military tribunal shall be esta blished—that refractory soldier; shall be Ito. mediately shot—and has commanded that the troops stationed nt Tarascon shall retire, and their plice be supplied by those en wit= more reliance can be placed. And now then, what is the result of all this " force" and " decision," and . violence Why, instead of one tree of liberty, fifty have been planted all over the country : and the Aliei•oer, in stead of having to contend with one " molt," us ould have to fight with a thousand a,sennblages before he could succeed in his system of " dmsion." When the last courier left, the whole countly was in a state of agitation—the Doctrinaires were defeated — and, what is worse than all this, the (arlists were rejoicing at the divisions which existed between the fiends of the revolution. Now you are what it is not to understand the revolution of 1830—and how hopeless n task it is to reduce France " to order," when France is not satisfied Nv - th the march of her Government. Yet poor M. Perier imagines the mr.jority k for him, because the Rentiers pat him on the back, and say " courage." There have been also some serious and lameniable disturbances at Grenoble, on the occasion of a religious proces sion. I can do no more than allude to it to-day. and simply add, that as well at Grenoble as else where the Government is to Marne. We have satisfactory news from Poland. Marshal Diebitseh announces, indeed, that he shall wait till the moveable magazines are ready, until the revolu tions in Lithuania and Volhynia are stifled, before he proceeds to his warfare against Russian Poland. Then, he says, that he shall collect all his forces to gether—and march to Warsaw I Z. e. we will march towards Warsaw—but to Warsaw I Never! The Poles are well supplied wi , h corn and straw. They are in want of arms, and would delight to receive the " gas pipes" from England ; but if assistance is to be rendered to the Poles, the English Journ: , l:, must not speak of it beforehand, as otherwise the Russian, Prussian, and Austrian Ministers at Lon don would send off despw cites to their Governments, and prevent the arrival of the promised aid. I fear those "gas pipes" will never reach Poland. The Rus si n army is in a wretched state of want, sickness,and dissatisfaction. The plunder of Warsaw was promised to these barbarians; but War Saw is farther from the plunderers than ever. The enemies of Poland are discouraged. A large army cannot enter Polatid and remain there. Moveable granaries will soon be emptied, and there are natural obstacles which prevent first their progress, and then their retreat. Not more than 50,000 Russians can possibly remain in Poland so far removed from supplies. The Poles will not allow of any provision to fall into the power of their cruel oppressors, and therefore, the army of Dicbitsch is obliged solely to rely on Russian re win ces. This deficit in provisions, want of forage, and malignant character of the cholera morbus in the Russian army, came therefore most opportunely to the aid of the Poles; and Debitsch has already discovered the truth of those hackneyed lines of Hudibras— m T e ha a t: I: who fights and runs away .
