(REVTER'S TELEGRAMS.)

THE POLISH INSURRECTION.
CRACOW, AUG. 12.
Up to the present the expected battle in the
Palatinate of Lublin has not taken place.
The news of the victory of the Insurgents under
Chruscina, at Policna, upon the 4th and sth inst.,
and of the concentration of troops in Lublin has
been confirmed.

The insurgents under Callier attacked a squadron
of Uhlans on the Bth inst. at Raszyn, near War-
saw, liberating a convoy of prisoners.
The Uhlans fled to Warsaw.
Grabowski suffered a defeat on the 7th inst., near
Gradzisk.

FRANCE.

PARIS, AUG. 12.

The Semaphore of Marseilles has received a first
warning for having published false news calculated
to lead public opinion astray, by its announcement
of an exchange of letters between the Emperor of
the French and the Emperor of Russia, which, as
it is officially stated, has never taken place.
BOURSE, Aug. 11.—The market has been rather
firmer, and the business done, though l.mited in
amount, shows a slight improvement. Threes, for
the Account, are now at 67f. 30c. The Railway
Share Market has been also more animated, and
previous prices have been well maintained. The

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
CRACOW, Aug. 8•

One of the most effective arms used by the Rus-
sian Government to provoke the Poles into acre
of desperation, and at the same time to deceive
Europe as to the real facts, is the official press.
I have now before the the last numbers of two
official papers of Warsaw and Wilne the Dziennik
Poivezeckny and the Kuryer Wilenski, The former
of these publishes a number of loyal addresses to
the Czar, purporting to proceed from various dis-
tricts of the empire. To say nothing of the unneces-
sary provocation involved in the publication of
such addresses in a Polish paper, they are couched
in such fulsome terms that they bear the marks of
fabrication on the face of them. Thus one, stated
to be signed by 6, the landowners, zajsangs, and
clergy of the Calraouck people" declares that they
are " quite happy under the wise rule of the Rus-
sian law," and that " the Polish rebellion lies on
their hearts like a stone ;" but that " all this is but
a trial, which will end in placing Russia higher
than all the nations in the world," and that " tbey
(the Calmoucks) are ready to sacrifice everything
for the prosperity of Russia and the peace of the
Czar, which is dearer to them than anything on
earth." In another, the inhabitants, of all trades
and professions, of the town of Barnaul, in the Go-
vernment of Tomek, are made to say that "they
live at a distance of 4,000 versts from St. Peters-
burg, at the foot of the frozen Altar Mountains,"
that " their love for the Czar is boundless," and
that " should the hostility of foreigners compel the
Czar to have recourse to arms, they are ready to
make all sacrifices."
But it is in the Wilna Courier that the provo-
cation assumed an aspect of brutal insult, which
must be bitterly galling to the Poles. The hosti-
lity of the inhabitants of this city to the Russians
is well known., Scarcely one of them but has
suffered, directly or indirectly, by the terrible per-
secutions of the tyrant Mouravieff. Wilna is the
headquarters of the Lithuanian insurnction, all the

ander, Bishop of Rowno, officiated at the holy
liturgy, and his eminence Joseph, Metropolitan of
Lithuania, said the prayers of thanksgiving, in pre-
sence of the President of the country, all the gene-
rals, military and civil employes, all the nobles, the
merchants, and large crowds of people. After pray era
for the long life of ner Imperial Majesty and her
family, a salvo of 101 guns was fired from the cita-
del. When the ecclesiastical parade, at which were
present the troops, was over, and his excellency
congratulated the soldiers, these all answered with
a long and cordial hurrah. The adjoining squares
and streets, which were filled with people, re-
sounded with the shouts with which they responded
to the hurrahs of the valiant soldiers. . .
he evening all parts of the town were illuminated,
ind crowds passed through the streets, rejoicing at
the unusual sight. The churches were illuminate()
with great artistic taste. _ .

"In the theatre the performances commenced with
the national hymn, ' God save the Emperor,' which
the enthusiastic audience encored; whe❑ it was
finished the roof of the building long re-ecooed with
unanimous hurrahs. Ail who were present wers

places were taken. The toilettes of the ladies were
remarkable for their elegance.
After this, is it to be wondered at that the mourn-
ing population of Wilna uses all its energies to
overthrow the Government that insults it with such
cynical falsehoods ?

THE FIRST FRENCH NEWSPAPER was started in
Paris in 1631, during the reign of Louie XIII., by
a physician named Theophraste Renaudot. Since then the
number of political journals which have appeared in France
would defy calculation. A statistical writer has recently
stated that, on the 25th of July, 1863, there were no less
i
than 609 newspapers, then being published n Paris

REUTER'S TELEGRAM,

LIVERPOOL, AUG, 12.

The Liverpool and Manchester papers publish a
despatch, to the effect that a private telegram put
on board the City of London at the last moment,
says it was currently reperted and generally be-
lieved at New York that the Federals had captures
Fort Wagner,

The City of London has reached Liverpool, but
brings nothing in confirmation of this despatch.

(REUTER'S EXPRESS.)

NEW YORK, AUG 1.
The following is the " situation," as described by
the New York .Herald of to-day :
" Information received at Washington yesterday
from the army of the Potomac states that Lee
massed his forces at Culpepper on Wednesday, and
made other preparations to give us battle on the
Rappahannock. His first advance, south of Cul-
pepper, was to foil us in taking the Fredericksburg
route ; but finding we did not advance, he concen-
trated his army at Culpepper. The Rappahannock
is guarded from Fredericksburg to Ely's Ford on
the Rapidan by one rebel regiment. The Rapidan
is fortified south of Culpepper.
"Mosby's gang made an extensive haul of
sutlers on Thursday night at Fairfax Court-house.
There is no Union force stationed immediately in
the Court-house. The sutlers of the army of the
Potomac have been generally advised of the fact,
but it is a convenient resting-place at the end of
the first day's journey, and some six or seven
sutlers, with their trains, wares, and chattels,
bivouacked there, and were all made prisoners.
" Gen. Gillmore's despatches to Gen. Halleck
state that his total loss in killed, wounded, and
missing during the three days' action on Morris
Island was only 985, of whom 350 are missing.
" The news from Kentucky and Tennessee con-
tinues most discouraging for the rebel cause. On
Thursday, near Paris, the rebels, 375 strong, drove
in our pickets and unsuccessfully attempted to flank
our troops and burn the bridge. They were
dr:ven back two miles, when the 45th Ohio came
on their rear, captured 15, and drove the rest
towards Mount Sterling.
" Col. Sanders attacked their main force, about
2,000 strong, at Winchester, with 8 pieces of artil-
lery. The rebels retreated towards Irvine, Colonel
Sanders pursuing them.
" A despatch from Memphis, of the 28th ult.,
says that the forces sent on under Colonel Hatch, to
look after the rebel troops enforcing the conscrip-
tion in Went Tennessee, had a fight at Lexington,
routing the rebels and capturing Colonel Campbell,
of the 23d Tennessee, 2 lieutenants, 25 privates, and
2 cannon. Colonel Campbell was en route from
Chattawooza to join General Pillow, who is under-
stood to be near Paris, Ky.
" A despatch from Cincinnati reports that the
rebels were attacked yesterday at Lancaster by
our troops, and had 20 killed and 100 captured.
The enemy got possession of Stanford Keys at
noon, but our cavalry soon drove them out, with
great loss, and at last accounts they were making
for the Cumberland River.

" We lear❑ from Vicksburg that Ganeral Herron
has gone to Mobile with his division. Our army at
Vicksburg has fallen back to the Big Black River.
It was reported that Joe Johnston was retreating to
Mobile.

"By the arrival of the Morning Star from New
Orleans, with dates to the 25th, we learn that the
Mississippi is folly open to navigation. Several
steamers had arrived at New Orleans from St.
Louis, within a few days. General Franklin had
reached Baton Rouge.
" Our war vessels are committing some havoc on
the enemy. The United States steam•sloop Ossipee,
captured on the 20th ult. the James Battle and
m. Bagle, loaded with cotton, blockade runners
from Mobile.
" The United States steamer Sciota, off the coast
of Texas, on the 7th ult., chased two small vessels
laden with cotton, both of which ran ashore and
were burned by our men, there being no means of
saving them. On the Thursday following, while
passing Corpus Christie, two vessels were discovered
at anchor behind Mustang Island, apparently loaded
with cotton and awaiting an opportunity to escape
the blockade. A rifled 20 pounder was fired at
them, when both got under weigh and stood up the
bay about 6 miles, where they grounded and were
then burned.

" On the 22d ult. the privateer Florida was still
at Bermuda, her departure having been delayed by
the refusal of the naval authorities to furnish her
with fuel ; but she was then getting a supply from
the rebel steamer Harriet Pinckney, and would sail
in a day or two on her voyHge of destination.
" Our advices from Nassau, NP.., are to 26th rift.
The Federal gunboat Toga arrived at Nassau on
the 24th ult. from Key West, and left shortly
afterwards. The Governor of Bahamas had re-
ceived an intimation from Lord Lyons that his
lordship's efforts to induce the Washington Cabinet
to withdraw its prohibition of exportation of live
stock to Nissan have been wholly fruitless. .Ad-
vices report that several blockade runners had
returned, unable to enter the rebel ports.
The following additional particulars appear in
the New York journals :
General John Morgan and Colonel Cluke and
staff arrived at Cincinnati, July 27, shortly after
ten o'clock, over the Little Maine Railroad, guarded
by troops under General Schackelford, the ca ptor
of Morgan. It consisted of Morgan and Cluke, vit h
their staff and orderlies, amounting in all to 31 per-
sons. On disembarking from the train they were
taken in charge by a detachment of the 111th Ohio.
A large crowd assembled at the depot, and as
the prisoners moved immense numbers were added
to it. Wnen they marched down 9th-street not less
than 5,000 persons surrounded the famous guerilla
and his aides. Many of these lookers-on seemed
excited, and cried, Hang the cut-throats."
" Bully for the horse thieves." Several of the
spectators were flourishing pistols, but the gu.ard
quickly drove them away.
The field band of the 111th discoursed it Yankee
Doodle" on the march, which the prisoners endured
with complete sang froid. Morgan on the way in-
terrogated the captain commanding the guard cm-
cerning the whet% aborts of his brother. His ques-
tion on that point being answered., he turned and
said, "Pass up that whisky." The whisky was
passed forward in a canteen, which the General
proffered to the captain, who politely refused. The
General then took a long pull.

They were ensconced Vin the city prison sho ttly
before eleven o'clock. Before locking them up t. tiny
were deprived of a large number of pistols, which'
they stated they had been permitted to retain by
the terms of surrender. There was a bushes of
pistols, all loaded, stowed away in the offi,',3e of 1 he
city prison lest night, all of them revolve rs, mt Iny
of the officers carrying a brace.

Morgan is fully six feet high, and of pre p osiik s_
not imposing presence. fe w
ring, though
attired in a linen coat, black pants, white sh irt, and
light felt hat. No decorations were visibi e. He
has rather a mild face, there being certainly *no hii 1g

in it to indicate the possession of unusual intellec-
tual qualities.
Colonel Cluke is very tall, rising probably two
inches over six feet. He was attired much after
the manner of his chief. He is slender, has sandy
hair, and looks like a man of invincible determina-
tion. His countenance is not devoid of certain
savage lines, which correspond wall with his bar-
barities as a leader.
The whole lot is a counter part of the squads we
have heretofore seen of the same command. The
same motley dress and the same decorous behaviour
(no great merit in the last trait) distinguish them.
Our advices from Nassau, N. 8., are to the 26th
ult.

The Union gunboat Tioga arrived at Nassau on
the 24th ult. from Key West, and having communi.
cated with W. C. Thompson, Esq., United States
Vice-Consul, left shortly afterwords.
The steamer Arabian, from Wilmington, N.C.,
arrived at Nassau on the 24th ult. The Arabian
had been detained by the rebel authorities at Wil-
mington on suspicion of her being owned in New
York ; but proof of British ownership having been
established she was allowed to proceed.
WASHINGTON, JULY 31.
The following was received today at the head-
quarters of the army :
"Department of the South, in the field,
Morris Island, S.C., July 23.
" Major General H. W, Halleck, General-in-Chief,
United States Army, Washington, D.C.

" Sir,—My medical director in the field reports
an aggregate loss in killed and wounded in our
hands of 635. I judge there are 350 missing. The
losses cover the three actions of the 10th, 11th, and
16th in3t. Many of the wounded will return to
duty in a week or ten days. The health of the
command is improving.
"Respectfully your obedient servant,
" Q. A. GILMORE,
" Brigadier •General Commanding."

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

NEW Y,Ii.K, July 31, 6 p.m.

The money market continues as easy as could be
desired. Money is offered in large amounts to the
leading brokers at 5 per cent., and at 6 the specu-
lators in light fabrics find no difficulty in getting
supplied. There is less caution than there was
some time ago in scrutinising margins; railway
stocks are improving in the opinion of bankers
as a collateral, and those which pay regular divi-
dends stand as high as any other class of securities,
Debt certificates are steady. Mercantile paper
continues to be quoted at 5 per cent. for strictly
prime names, and 5/ to 61 tor good mercantile
paper.

Gold advanced to-Jay to 1291, casing at 5 p.m.
at 129. Exchange sold at 1411 to 142 for bankers
bills. No special cause is assigned for the advance
in gold and bills, but it was evident some days
since, that unless we heard of the fall of Charleston
the tendency of the market would rather be toward
reaction after the recent heavy decline. There will
be a heavy specie export to-morrow.
The stock market opened weak this morning, and
there was rather a disposition to improve the reac-
tion by putting out soma sellers' options. But at
the close of the first board the decline brought in
flesh buyers, and the market soon recovered
strength. At the first board Cumberland fell off
L- per cent.; Quicksilver, 1 ; New York Central,
1 ; Erie, 14; ; Harlan, 2; Erie Preferred, 1 ; Hud-
son, 2k; Reading,; ; Michigan Central, ; Southern
Old, 11--; Illinois Central, 14; CleVeland and Pitts
burg, 1; Galena, -I; Terre Haute, I; Toledo, ;
Rock Island, -1-; Fort Wagner, 1, &c., &e. State
Stocks were steady. Missouris a better. Govern-
ments were steady, without activity. After the
board there was a rally in the whole
market, and at the 1 p.m. call the transactions show
an advance on the active shares of s to 1 per cent.
all round. Erie sold at 103, against 101 at the
first board. People who sold two mornings since
at 104, appear to be quite eager to get in again at
the decline; no one seems to look for a reaction of
Ito 2 per cent. At the second board the upward
movement was continued, and the market be-
came very buoyant. The advance was re-
sisted by the regular bear operators, who
tried to hammer some of the leading fancies ;
but their efforts appeared to have no effect in check-
ing the advance. While the existence of a bear
interest will naturally impart strength to the next
upward surge, Erie rose;; ; Central, 4 ; Southern,;, ;
Fort Wagner, 1 ; Rock Island 1, Sze. Central was
especially strong, selling dividend off at 125.1. It is
understood that a new party, with head-
quarters at Albany and Soratoga, has been
formed to put up the price of Central, and
operators, who are supposed to be in their
secrets, talk of an extra dividend, and 150 for the
stock. It ought to sell as high as Hudson River.
At the 4 p.m. call the market was very strong in-
deed. Few stocks were offered for sale, and every
one wanted to buy.

Cotton was in good demand, and 2,300 bales were
reported sold at 61c. and 630. for mlddlings.

PENSIONS FOR DISTINCTION IN LITERATURE
AND SCIENCE,—Her Majesty has been graciously pleased
to grant a pennon of £7O a-year to Mr, Joshua Alder.
" ATHENS ON THE SPREE," as the Prussians like
to call Berlin, has about a dozen daily papers, with from
6,000 to 20,000 subscribers. There are in Germany, ac-
mrding to a recent return, 1,221 newspapers, of which no
leas than 249 are dailies.

WHAT NEXT ? Not satisfied, apparently, in the
" Show" way, with going to "the demnition bow-
wows," as Mr. Mantalini has it, nor with the announcement
of a coming "cat show," Londoners have it now actually
announced to them that at an early date a prize show or
London costermongers' donkeys will bo held, with a view
to the encouragement of humane owners among the poor
and the well-being of that useful and too often misused
animal.

CHARLES DICKENS'S ACCOUNT OF A FOUR
PENNY HALFPENNY DINNER.—It had just struck
t,velve, and a quick succession of faces had already begun '
to appear at a little window in the wall of the partitioned
spate where I sat looking over the books. Within this little
window, like a pay-box at a theatre, a neat and brisk young
woman presided to take money and issue tickets. Every one
coming in must take a ticket. Either the fourpence-halt-
penny ticket for the upper room (the most popular ticket, I
think), or a penny ticket for a bowl of soup, or as many
penny tickets as he or she chose to buy. For three penny
tickets one had quite a wide range of choice. A plate of
cold beef and potatoes; or a plate of cold nam and pota-
toes; or a plate of hot minced beef and potatoes; or a
bowl of soup, bread and cheese, and a plate of plum
pudding'. Touching what they should have, some customers
on taking their seats fell into a reverie—became mildly dis-
tracted—postponed decision, and said in bewilderment, they
would think of it. One old man I noticed when I sat
among the tables f,z the lower room who was startled by the
bill of fare, and sat olntemplating it as if it were something
of a ghostly nature, fire decision of the boys was as rapid
as their execution, and ;limeys included pudding. There
were several women among the diners, and several clerks
and shopmen. There were carpenters
.and painters from
neighbouring buildings under cepair, and there were nautical
men, and there were, as one diner observed to me, " some of
most sorts." Some were solitary, some came two together,
som dined in parties of three or four, or six. The latter
talked together, but assuredly no one was louder than at
my club in Pall-Mall. One young fellow whistled in rather
a shrill manner while he waited for his dinner, but I was
gratified to observe that he did so in evident defiance of my
uncommercial individuality. Quite agreeing with him, on
consideration, that I haa no business to be there, unless 1
dined like the rest, I " wont in," as the phrase is, for
fourpence-halfpenny. The rapidity with wnieh every new
corner got served, was remarkable ; and the dexterity with
which the waitresses (quite new to the art a month before)
discharged their duty, was as agreeable to see, as the neat
smartness with which they wore their dress and had dressed
their hair. If I seldom saw better waiting, so I
rt certainilty,
never ,e better meat, potatoes, or pudding, And the
soup
arcs an honest and stout soap, with rice and bsrley in
an d "little matters for the teeth to touch," as 1-ad been ob-
served to me by my friend below stairs already quoted.ideotis
The dinner-service, too, was neither conspicuously hideous
for hi,c4h art nor ?or low art, but was of a pleasant and pure
appearance. Concerning the viands and their cookery, one

HER MAJESTY.

WINDSOR CASTLE, Aug. 11.

Her Majesty and their Royal Highnesses Prine°
Alfred, Princess Helene, Prince Leop old, and Prin-
cess Beatrice left the Catle this afternoon, at three
o'clock, where her Majesty embarks in the Royal
yacht Fairy for Greenhithe.

The suite attending her Majesty consists of the
Marchioness of Ely (Lady in Waiting), the Lad)"
Augusta Bruce, Lieut.• General Hon. C. Gt. vlt
Colonel Sir T. M. Biddulph, Major Cowell, D,r-
,Tenner, and Mr. Buff.

At Greenhithe the Queen and Royal party will
embark in the Royal yacht Victoria and Albert, and
proceed to Antwerp.
Earl Granville embarks with the Queen, and
attends her Majesty to the Continent.
His Royal Highness Prince Arthur, attended by
Elphinstone, left Windsor for Bagehot Park•

Her Majesty the Queen, with their Royal Hlg b -
nesses Prince Alfred and the Princesses Helena an ti
Beatrice, attended by Lieut.-Colonel Du Pia t,
Major Cowell, and the ladies of the Royal suit e,
after alighting from the Vauxhall station of tl le
South Western Railway, proceeded yesterday ere r-
noon in private carriages to Woolwich, for embark a'
tion on board the Fairy steam yacht, en route : nor
Germany. The royal cortege,which comprised E ,i%
carriages, was unattended by the usual military
outriders, and proceeded at a smart pace throul ;11
Deptford Broadway to Greenwich, where her N
jesty arrived at 35 minutes past four, and was z
ceived with unmistakeable although unobtrusive
loyalty by the entire population. As the carte ge
passed the ancient church of St. Alphage the bells
sent forth a merry peal, and the entire line of
route was thronged by thousands of persons, the
balconies and windows in the several streets being
also fully occupied by those anxious to obtain a
glimpse of her Majesty, who, with Prince Alfred
and the Princesses, was seated in the foremost car-
riage, the windows being down. Any attempt at
cheering was instantly suppressed by the majority
of the spectators, in accordance with the well- •
known royal desire. Her Majesty, during th 8
journey to Woolwich, more than once acknowledg ed
her approval of the loyal scene which presented.
itself. At Woolwich the streets were equ all!
crowded, the spacious area known as Beres lore
square, immediately fronting the main gate of I' je
Royal Arsenal, being occupied by many thousar ds
of persons ; but owing to the excellent erne gc-
ments made by the police authorities no obstriaae
resulted to the royal carriages, which, after lei iv log
Greenwich, proceeded through Lower Cheri ;07 i°
Woolwich, arriving at the arsenal precisely at lice
o'clock. On entering the establishment Pri rice
Alfred courteously returned the salute of the pa lies
force assembled on each side of the roadway, and the
royal cortege proceeded at once to the ph r,
