TO THI IMITTOIE OF TEI HUSHES.

Sia,—Now that the native press in Poland is
gagged to the extent of suffocation, and eh foreign
correspondents, except such as were ready to put
themselves at the disposition of the authorities,
long since sent about their business, the Russian
and German governments flatter themselves that,
at least for the present, they may treat their Polish
subjects as they please, without any fear of
criticism.

I have this morning received intelligence of a
piece of conduct on the part of the Austrian govern-
ment which for its diabolical ingenuity deserves
publicity.
A Polish gentleman of property, named Zakaa-
zewski—a refugee from Russian Poland—was
temporarily residing in Cracow when the state of
siege was proclaimed in March last. In common
with all foreigners—Russian Polish subjects are
foreigners at Cracow, for centuries the capital of
Poland—M. Zakaszewski had to present himself to
the Austrian police, and demand leave to remain in
Cracow. It having oozed out that M. Zakaazewali
spent large sums in charity, and provided board and
lodging free at his own house for poor and disabled
insurgente—most had lost at least one limb—he
was at once thrown into prison, and recently tried
by oourt-martial, which, acquitting him, handed him
back to the police.
M. Englisch, the director of police at Cracow,
was on this occasion extremely courteous, and pro-
mised M. Zakaszewski a passport to travel abroad
for the following day.
At 5 a.m. police officers entered M. Zakaszewski's
house, and demanded his papers, which bad not yet
arrived. In spite of all explanations (incredible as
it may appear to the English reader, who is
unaware that in their dealings with rebels tyran-
nical governments consider themselves bound by no
ties of honour,) M. Zakaszewski was hurried from
his bed into a cart, and driven to the Russian fron-
tier at Michalowice, and then and there Landed over
to the tender mercies of the Russians as " Legiti-
mation-loo"—i.e., without papers.
At 8 a.m. Pddme. Zaksazewski received her
husband's passport, with M. Englisch's oomph-
menta.—l am, &c., W. H. BULLOCK.

DI:POSITION or Dz. Comarso.—Bishop Gray, of
Cape Tow', visited Natal last mouth, sad promulgated his
sentence of deposition against the Bishop of Natal (Dr. Co.
law) in the various Anglicas churches of the ooloay. A
protest easiest this proceeding, groluided on its illegality,
was sent in beforehand by the chumbwardens sod other
members of the church of liegland belonging to St. Paul's
Church, Durham, and several of the coogrega.
ties left the church before the sestinas was read.
The bishop, hi a written reply to the protesters,
says :—" It is to me a source of very great regret that any
mistioderstending should have arias. I have 000:111 her at
