General Bosak has scut to the National Govern-
ment the following report of his successful engage-
ment at (Memoir on the 28th ult. ;
On the 26th, as I was meted with my cavalry at Ociesenk,
I was informed that the Russians, consisting of 600 infantry
end 20 Coracks, with two guns, were marching along the
high mid front Cisow. I immediately ordered the chief of
my staff, Chinialineki, to assemble two companies of infan-
try sod fifty dregooos, and post them, under Major Brizoiaa,
in the way of the enemy. My cavalry, except fifty
wham I left as an escort, I seat to Itombow. Our attack on
the Remises was • most saccesaful one. Captain
Tylman's riflemen, after a rapid and effective
fire, charged with the bayonet, and took 21
rifles from the enemy. After an hour's fighting,
in which the Russians had great losses, I was informed by
my pickets that 600 more Russians were analog up, sod
accordingly ordered my men to join the cavalry at Rainbow.
As we marched off, the 3rd company of Major IL'e de-
tachment attacked the Russians in the rear, after which the
latter hastily dispersed. It appears from reliable testimony
that the loss of the Russians in killed and wounded was ea.
On our side 20 were killed and 17 wounded.—Dec.l, 1863.
A letter from the palatinate of Augustow, which,
as is known, has been separated from the kingdom
of Poland and placed under the rule of Mouravieff,
thus describes the proceedings of the new governor,
Ganecki, who has been sent by Mouravieff to the
palatinate. On the first day of his arrival Ganecki
severely blamed the military authorities for their
excessive lenity, and told them they ought to have
hung at least two hundred Poles. He then ordered
all the townsmen to come before him, and he began
his address by saying, "You are all rebels, and
know you deserve to be hanged." Then, turning to
M. Charles Witte, the rector of the High School, he
abused him in the coarsest language, because he wore
a beard and hie pupils did not dress in the Russian
uniform. He then ordered 150 persons to be ar-
rested, among whom were Mrs. Isabella Trzeszcz-
kowska, a widow, aged 65 ; M. Lutoslawskii a
landowner ; M. Troczewski, a magistrate ; M.
Pemba, a high official ; Messrs. Andruszkiewicz and
Talarowski, priesta ; and M. Ostrowski, a professor
in the High School. M. Witte, the rector of the
High School, and a priest named Haberkarl, were
banished shortly after. Many of those arrested were
frightfully beaten in theirprison, and one of them*, M.
Troczewski, became so ill in consequence that he was
sent to the hospital. The priestTalarowski received
150 lashes, and when he thanked God that he could
suffer for his country, was struck in the face by an
officer. The priest Andruszkiewicz was so ill-
treated that his life is despaired of. The Jews
Tykociner and Zowinski were also beaten. The
truth of the above facts may be relied upon. The
prisons in all the towns of the palatinate are full ;
that of Lem= alone contains 300 prisoners.
The Cracow police has complained to the Roman
catholic consistory, that many persons adorn with
Powers and flags the tombs of those who have
perished in the insurrection, declaring that this is
a profanation. The consistory sent the complaint
to the municipal council, which answered that the
regulations regarding the cemetery are strictly
complied with, and that no profanation had taken
place, the acts mentioned by the police not consti-
tuting a profanation.
