THE RUSSIAN TROOPS IN WARSAW.

A letter from Warsaw of the 2d, in the Constitic-
tionnel, says :—" It has been stated that there is a
camp of 40,000 men established near this city, but
nothing can be farther from the truth. Such a
large body of troops is nowhere concentrated in
Poland, and as for the camp at Mariemont, of
which so much has been said, it no longer
exists, and you may rely on the correctness of
what I state, that the troops in Poland are not
very numerous. . It is I,,anifest that for some
time past the Russian Government has com-
pletely changed its plan of defence. Poland
at first was intended to be occupied by a consi-
derable army, and provisions for more than 200,000
men were collected in the fortress of Modlin. Now
we have only small garrisons, and those supplies
are all spoiling. A very short time since 1,800
tons of salt meat, in a state of decomposition, were
thrown into the Narew and Vistula, which flow
past the fortress of Modlin ; and the permis-
sion now granted for exporting corn and other ar-
ticles of food to Cracow, Gallicia, and the Bucko-
win a, shows that the Russian Government no longer
thinks it necessary to keep up a large force in
Poland. Large quantities of provisions have been
recently sent into Bessarabia. The inhabitants of
Podolia, Volhynia, and Bessarabia suffer consider-
ably from the constant passage of troops through
those countries, and any one must be ignorant of
the actual state of the people of those provinces
who imagines that they are devoted to the cause of
the Czars. The priests in vain endeavour to excite
their fanaticism in favour of the present war. The
inhabitants of ancient Boland, as well as the Zapo-
rogue Cossacks, entertain the vague hope of reco-
vering their former independence, and no further
sacrifices can be demanded from them beyond what
are now imposed. To-morrow will be celebrated
hero the triple fete of the Empress Maria Alexan-
drowna, of the Grand Duchess Maria Nicolaiewna,
widow of the Prince de Leuchtenberg, and of the
Grand Duchess Maria Paulowna, widow of the
Grand Duke of Saxe Weimar."

The Postmastership of Jersey, which has been vacant
some considerable time, has at length been filled up by
the appointment to the situation 8f Mr. A. Forrest, of
the General Post-office, Edinburgh.
NATIONAL FLORICULTURAL SOCIETT.—A most in-
teresting exhibition of plants took place yesterday, at
the rooms of this society, 21, Regent-street. The fea-
ture of the show consisted of a collection of roses, sent
by Mr. Paul, of Cheshunt. As regards colour and per-
fection of development we have never witnessed any-
thing equal to the display of yesterday.
A FRENZIi STRATAGEM.—At the attack of the Mame-
lon, on the 7th, the signal given was six rockets from
the Victoria Redoubt. Under the impression that the
besieged would probably for the future keep a good lock
out for demonstrations of this nature, the French, not
many days since, made the same signal, and accompa-
nied it with the roll of drums in the trenches towards
the front, and words of command, given in a loud tone.
The result justified their anticipations, as the Russian
bugles sounded the assembly, and their troops were seen
crowding into the Malakhoff, ready to repel the sup-
posed premeditated attack. Immediately the guns and
mortars bearing on the threatened point poured forth
their iron hail. Grape, canister, and shells fell among
the besieged "fast and furious, and only ceased when
the fire from the enemy showed that the panic had
passed away. On the whole this ruse de guerre was satis-
factoryferers. in the extreme to all concerned, except the suf.
