Steamship Company's screw steamer City of Balti-
more, Captain Petrie, from New York on the eth
inst., has arrived here. She brings mails and

tine touching the military memory /net adopted at tit.
Members. Three of the siz corps &nate composing the
active army of Russia an put on • war fooling. The
°Mews end soldien who WON oa haw of abuses see to
joie their regiments by April 20, at the latest. Two
of the three corps enrage in question are in-
tended to occupy Poland. The second corps, which
includes the 4th, sth, sad 6th divisions of infantry, the 2ed
division of cavalry, and the 21•1 division of &ninon', ban
taken up a position at Warsaw and in the provinces a Lub-
lin and Podlachia. The third corps, composed of the 7th,
Bth, and 9th divisions of infantry, the 3rd division of
cavalry, and the 3rd regiment of artillery, his received
orders to lean Wolbynia and Podolia, where it wee in ean-
tonmenta, and to proceed to Poland by forced marches. At
the date of the last advice. some of these troops bad arrived
at their destination. Each of these corps d'srenie consists
of an effective force of 50,000 men, so that the number of
men employed in maintaining the kingdom of Poland is
about 100,000. It ie considered very possible that three
other corps d'anees will be put one war footing within a
short time, so that before the canner the entire Russian
army will be on a war footing. This much is cer-
tain—that the Remise goveroneent is at this
moment buying • great many horses in Germany for
her artillery and cavalry, and is preparing immense quanti-
ties of camp materials sad stone at all sorts. From the
mane wanes of informatics we harm that the persons ar-
rested in Warsaw in consequence of the events of April 8

individuals the heat compromised, who will be sent to the
fortress of Medlin, when they will pan viz months ; the
second, comprising the young seen who were (hogged into
the movement, will be inoorpoested in the infantry regiments
of the Canessus ; and the third, the individuals regarded as
the ringleaders, will be incorporated fa the frontier Nei-
