Funeral of the Polish Exile, Lieutenant.

Colonel Nowosielski.

Amongst the comparatively few Polish exiles
now in this country there was none probably who
shared more in the affections of his compatriots in
arms than Lieutenant-Colonel Nowosielaki, or was
more beloved by all who knew him. His remains
were interred on Tuesday afternoon at Highgate
Cemetery, and his grave was attended by numbers
of his countrymen of all ranks, anxious to pay this
last sad tribute of respect to his memory. The
mourners were Colonel Oborski, Captain liosmian,
Messieurs De Wylde, Prusinowski, Ostrowski,
Raczynski, Mr. John Robert Taylor, honorary
secretary to the National League for the Indepen-
deuce of Poland ; and Mr. John Richardson, Com.
mon Councilman. Also, we observed the follow-
ing friends of the deceased :—Genera 1 Count Z.
moyski, Major Skulimowaki, Messieurs. M. Wald
goraki, and Charles Ruprecht, Delegates of the Na.
tional Government of Poland. Major Szulczewski,
Major ,Gialgiud, Captain Bobezynaki, A Zsbicki,
&c. The national Polish flig, draped in black crepe,
preceded the funeral cortege. The service was
performed according to the Church of Eng.
land ritual, when, amidst the most profound
silence, A. Zabicki delivered a most impressive
oration in the Polish language, expatiating on the
virtues of the deceased, and impassionedly depicted
the great loss the Poles had sustained in the death of
their departed brother. This was followed by an
eloquent address from Mr. Richardson, which he
concluded by reciting the following very beauti-
ful lines composed by Mrs. Richardson for the
occasion :

'Tis past—thy time of strife and pain,
Thy life's kng agony,
And thou art gone where pain shall cease,
And tears are wiped away,
At rest—in peace ; wo leave thoe here
Beneath our English skies,
No longer Exile in the land
Where thy brave soul shall rise,
Son of that Noble Land for whom
Thou wouldst have died to save,
Her tyrants cannot reach thee here
Within thy quiet grave.
Free tears are shed above thee now;
This shall•thy requiem be—
" The Patriot spirit cannot die,
And Poland shall be free."
After another address by a Polish exile, in the
Polish language, Mr. J. R. Taylor advanced in
front of the grave, and drew the attention of those
present to the uncertainty of human life, and the
joy they should all feel that their departed
brother had well performed his mission to this
world, and that other Polish patriots would soon
rise up to take his place. He expressed his deep
sorrow that Mr. Edmond Beales, the President of
the National League for the Independence of Poland,
was not present to take part in the proceedings, and
read the following passage from a letter, apologising
for his absence, written by him to Captain Bobez-
yneki :—" I received the news of Lieut.-Colonel
Nowosielski's death with unfeigned sorrow. I hon-
oured him whilst living as one of the noblest minds
and purest hearts amongst your patriot band of
Polish emigrants, whose devotion under the most
cruel persecutions, and the most severe
trials to their own country and the rights
of other nations has bound me with loving loyalty
to their cause and to Poland for many, many years.
I shall ever cherish his memory with a pious affec-
tion. Pray, express this for me, if nfTessary—my
heart, if not my person, is with you. ?lay Almighty
God, in his all ruling and all directing providence
iu Christ Jesus our Saviour, yet realise all the de-
sires and wishes of our departed friend for the re-
establishment of Poland, the peace of Europe, and
the welfare of mankind." Mr. Taylor concluded by
emphatically expressing his belief that the Almighty
was with them, and that Poland must and would be
free. The cortege then left the cemetery, end the
proceedings terminated.

It is said that the debate on the French budget
will give rise to an incident to which great inturtst
is attached. An amendment, proposed by M. do Janze,
supported by 12 members of all parties in the Chamber,
among whom is M. Jules Fevre, will bring before the Corps
Legislatif the history of Leserques, who was executed many
years since fo: the robbery and murder of a traveller ou the
Lyons road, of which crime he was afterwards proved to be+
innocent. The object of the amendment is to restore to his
descendants a sum of 54,525 f. confiscated by the Slate, to-
gether with the interest from the year 1796. The daughter
of Leserques, on being refused justice by the Minister of
Finance of that day, threw hereclf into the Sane and was
drowned,
