a certain time had elapsed after his decease. Both these

evinced for his misfortungs, and the work will accordingly
appear in a few days.

FRANKFORT, JULY h.—According to the latest ac-
counts from Vienna, the cholera morbus was no more than
forty-four miles from that capital. Pesth was surrounded
by a cordon, and at length it was felt necessary to take at
Vienna also more serious measures of precaution. The
Emperor is resolved, whatever may happen, not to leave
the city ; he continues to reside among his faithful citizens
of Vienna, whose spirits would certainly be depressed by
his departure. lie has intimated to the Members of the
imperial Family that he wishes them to follow his ex-
ample. On the other band, all the public functionaries
have received orders not to absent themselves from their
posts ; none of them can now obtain temporary leave of
absence or a passport. A sanatory cordon, composed of
36,000 chosen troop., is to protect the capital, if possible,
against the inroads of this scourge, and in order to prevent
the scarcity of provisions which might ensue from this
kind of seclusion, the bakers are ordered to lav in corn
sufficient for the consumption of the inhabitants .for three
months.
The establishments called Josephinum and Theresianum
are going to be converted into hospitals. Experience hav-
ing shown that the Jews, from their want of cleanliness
and their mode of life, are peculiar susceptible of contagion,
no Jew corning from Poland is permitted to pass through
Brunn in Moravia ; while at Prague, Pesth, and probably
before long at Vienna also, they are expelled from the closely-
'milt quarters, where they are crowded in too great num-
bers, and which the police causes to be purified.
The letters from Brody say, that the disorder had en•
tirely ceased there, but it continued to rage in Lemberg,
where there are fifty or sixty deaths daily.
At Frankfort we are beginning to take measures of pre-
caution, in case the cholera should reach us. A house of
quarantine is to be fitted up for strangers coming from sus-
pected places, and an hospital for those who may be at-
tacked by the disorder.

(From the Messager des Chambres of July 24.)
BarsT, JULY 20.—Queen Donna Maria has set out
to-cl ty on her way to Cherbourg. Her Majesty will
sleep at Dinan to-night, and to-morrow, the 21st, will
probably arrive at St. Malo, where it is said preparations
are made to receive her in a manner suitable to her rank.
Pousn FRONTIERS, JULY 12.—1 t is affirmed that
Field-Marshal Paskewitsch held a council of war on the
3d instant, to learn the precise situation of the Russian
army, and to collect plans for the campaign, formed by
the most experienced Generale.
After having ascertained the small progress of the Li-
thuanian insurrection, and the good condition of the
Russian army, which consists of 62,000 infantry, and
15,000 cavalry, it was resolved to commence vigorous
offensive operations, and to pass the Vistula without delay, '
to obtain possession of Warsaw.
The pi in was to be carried into effect on the 11th. In
a few days great events will take place, and Field-Marshal
Paskewit.ch will give the first specimen of his military
talents on Polish ground.
It is affirmed that, on quitting St. Peter burgh, he pro-
mised to do his utmost to crush the Polish insurrection,
but without charging himself with any responsibility in
case of failure. Thus it may be inferred, from the well-
known character of the Field-Marshal, that in some way
or other the war is drawing to a close ; for if he succeeds,
he has attained his end, and fulfilled his engagements;
otherwise the Field-Marshal will be the first to act as
mediator between Poland and the Emperor, and put an
end to hostilities.
By placing Count Paskewitsch at the head of the army,
Russia has staked all its military glory; if the chances of
war should be less favourable to the General-in-Chief than
in Asia, the brilliant era of Russia will have closed.
