THE IOLISH Littr:EffS.
Our readers will recollect that these troops dis-
tinguished trh:mtelves in the battle of Aliment by
their harthility in mangling the wounded found up-
on the held. From the followiog extract of a ()I
vide letter, we hear that these savages have met their
deserts:— StArientrtt, June .25.
We are quite delighted to state, from uuquestior-
able authority from Lisbon, the almost total aunt-
hilation of those sanguinary villeins the Pollan
Lancers, who have met a just retribution for their
enormities committed on the wounded that fell
into their power at the battle of Allister+. A tele-
graphic dispatch arrived at Lisbon previous to the
sailing of the fonorire, which announced, in few
words, the almost annihilation of those Polish
hatchery. ft should be understood, that since
the fatal effect of the red flag at the bottle of
Ailment regional our cavalry, this spezies of our
force has been daily and hourly ueel to
the waving of red flags before their eyes, and ui
last were accustomed to Arad the ratite. 'lle

waved their flags in va;11; our horses advanced
with their usual vigour, uisappalled, and the Po.
lish lancer*, loing outflanked, were forced ovg.iin't
a wall. and almost entirely rut sip by the-rape
to
of our cavalry. Ouly eight. it is said, who were
not despatately wousided, were %awed bi the hettatit•
nity of our dragon guards. This is what we may
call retributive justice ; and me hope. if any more
such ferocious allies are with the. French array,
they will take a useful lesson. that cruelty to u
fallen enemy is only wrathy an unenlightened sa-
vage.
