BOURSE, October 31.—The struggle between the
Bears and Bulls to-day has been severe. At the
commencement of business an improvement was ob-
tained, and Threes went up to 70f. 90c., but sales
soon afterwards commenced, and they speedily
again declined, and are now at 70f. 70c. There
has been little doing in Railway shares, but the
variations have not been material. The market
closed as follows :

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENTS)

WARSAW, OCT. 21.

The more light is thrown upon the order issued
that the recruiting should almost exclusively
be limited to the town inhabitants, the more con-
vincing proofs exist of that measure being taken
without the knowledge of the CL until of State.
This again shows that the members of that body
have no powers whatever to exercise, but are so
many nominees, appointed for the purpose of en-
dorsing any law or regulation that it may please
the Government to enact. Still some of the mem-
bers, stung as it were with the insignificance of
their position, boldly raised their voices at the last
sitting of the Council of State by demanding some
rule whereby the Executive would be prevented
from acting as they did in the matter of recruiting.
General Lewinski and Archbishop Telinski both
asked for explanation why their motions to the
effect, as above stated, had not been inserted in tho
minutes of the last Council ; and the Marquis
Wielopolski stated that the Grand Duke Constan-
tine had not yet decided upon the question at issue
—a mere subterfuge on the part of the Marquis,
since everything that passed at the meeting should,
in the regular course of business, have been
noted in the proceedings thereof. It is, therefore,
clear that the cruel edict of selecting people only
from towns to supply the first levy for the Russian
army had never been brought under the considera-
tion of the Council of State, and is only the work
of the Marquis Wielopolski and company, who are
bent on persecuting the intelligent part of the po-
pulmtion as the most obnoxious to carrying out the
Government's satanical schemes.

The anniversary of the death of Kosicuski, which
occurred on the 13th inst., was kept as a day of
national mourning. Funeral services were per-
formed in all the churches, and the police this time
did not interfere, seeing it was useless, after so
many attempts and failures, to try and stifle the
national feeling. The deep mourning still con-
tinues throughout Poland in spite of the Govern-
ment paper recently started under the title o
Drejs, which endeavours to ridicule every
sentiment, and to assert that the public
mourning
