GERMAN PAPERS.

WARSAW, APRIL s.—Among the prisoners take❑ in
consequence of the defeats of Generals Geismar and Rosen,
ue several of high rank and distingui.hed
Prince Skakow.ki, Baron Sacken, Count Medem, General
Lavendoweki, Colonel Sokotow, Lieut.-Colonel Tortm.,

Majors Levicki and Oloenzki, and 120 other officers.
The whole of General Geismar's baggage has been taken.
The large Russian magazines formed at Minsk and Sied-
lee have fallen into our hands, as the enemy had not time
to burn them. _ _ _

The loss of the enemy since the 25th of February, ac-
cording to the accounts of prisoners, reports of the Sur-
geon-General, and other documents which have been
taken, appars to be 50,000 men in killed, wounded, and
prisoners. The whole of our loss, on the contrary, does
not amount to 10,000 men. Many of the Russian pri-
soners enter into our regiments, and declare that they are
glad to have fallen into our hands. The wounded Rus-
sians are treated with all possible care. Warsaw is full
of prisoners. The last hope of the Russians depends on
their Guards, and it is not improbable that they are by
this time well beaten.
I have gone over the field of battle, which I found
covered with dead bodies of Russians lying often one over
the other. Our artillery, which was extremely well
served, did great execution.
Yesterday our head-quarters were removed to Siennica.
The battle of the 31st commenced near Grochow ; the
fighting proceeded on to Wawr, and terminated at Dembe-
Wielki. The battle of the Ist of April was carried on along
the road to Minsk, and took the direction of Siedlec. The
action of the 2d took place near Kaluzyn, so that as far as
Livice the whole country between the Bug and the Narew
is cleared of the enemy.
At Minsk we recovered 120 of our wounded, who had
been taken by the Russians.
APRIL 7.—The corps of General Dwernicki having,
after great fatigues, entered the fortress of Zamosc it was
proposed to return thanks to the Almighty for the vic-
tories obtained at Stoczck, Nawa, Wies, Pulawy, and Ku-
row. The ancient church, in which the remains of the
Great Zamoyski are deposited, was chosen for this pur-
pose, and the brave General Dwernicki, with his corps and
the garrison of Zamosc, repaired thither. Ignatius Pzyn-
g;arski, the chaplain of the garrison, performed the service,
and delivered an eloquent discourse, in which, after ex-
plaining the object of the sermon, he said,—" Let every
soldier of General Dwernicki's corps now swear to con-
quer or (lie." The oath was immediately taken on the
tomb of the great Zamoyski. The worthy ecclesiastic
then again addressed the troops, exhorting them never to
lay down their arms until Polish liberty should he esta-
blished, and their union with their brothers of Lithuania
accomplished. He desired them to recollect that the motto
of every Pole born in the land of Sigismund, ought now
to be "Freedom or death." This address produced a great

impression, and many of the soldiers shed teats. Father
Pzynglareki then consecrated, on the tomb of the great
Zamoyski the sabre destined for General Dwernicki. In
conclusion, he said, " It is only by imitating the example
of our brave ancestors, that we shall bequeath to our chil-
dren our national honour, and a country delivered at the
expense of our blood.
" BERLIN, APRIL 16.---The report of the expected
arrival of General Excelmans at Warsaw, as we now learn,
was a stratagem of the Commander-in-Chief, to cover,
under pretext of a review in honour of that General, the
preparations for an attack. When they were complete the
General-in-Chief invited the principal officers to table on
the 30th, in the morning, and as they drank the last glass
acquainted them with his plan. The officers warmly con-
gratulated each other, and orders were immediately given
for the march by night.
" When the post came away it was expected at Warsaw
that a battle would soon take place, in which it seems Po-
lish troops front the left bank of the Vistula were to take
part.
" Iliatattac, Aram 15.—The Berlin papers for some
days have been completely barren of Polish news. The
following paragraph is from the Austrian Observer :
' According to intelligence from the Polish frontiers, Gen.
Dwernicki was expected in Bilgoray on the 29th of March
—a detachment of a battalion and two squadrons of his
corps having arrived there early in the morning. In Za-
wichost Polish troops were stationed ; and the movement
of General Dwernicki from Kruznabrod to Bi'goray, seems
to indicate an intention on his part to march to Zawichost,
and there crags the Vistula. He suffers from want of
provision.; the Russians stationed near Janow and Szcze-
breczyn having succeeded in captnting several convoys
destined for his use.' From this it appears that the gal-
lant Dwernicki was ranging about the country at a time
that the Russian bulletins described him as having been
obliged to fly for safety to the fortress of Zamosc.
" The 'Warsaw papers have not been received in Berlin
for some days."
RIGA, APRIL 1.-The accounts from Lithuania appear
to be much better. Accounts from St. Petersburgh also
represent the matter as not of great importance. In short,
people's minds here have for some days been more easy.
Goods are suffered to pass from Lithuania. Some wig-
gotta with flax will arrive here in a few days. But the
last mail from \Vilna has not arrived. The apprehen-
sions of our merchants are directed more to the river,
which farms the frontier between Dunaburg and Droja,
and it is thoniht possible that the boats way be detained.
The principal merchants will to-day present a petition to
the Governor-General, directing his attention to that dan-
gerous point ; and requesting that the necessary precau-
tions may he taken, As the Crown expects 171) boats or
barges with flour, oats, &c., which it is said are to be
embarked at Memel and Konigsberg, it is possible that the
request of the merchants will he attended to.—Ham-
burg Papers, April 16.
The Prussian State Gazettes of the 12th, 13th, and
14th of April, do not contain 'any news whatever from
Warsaw, or any part of Poland.

MISS FANNY KEMULE'S NEW CIIARAC-

MR. LAWLESS.-Mr. LAWLESS arrived in
this city yesterday from Limerick, where he has been for
the last week; we are glad to see this gentleman in the
enjoyment of his accustomed health, spirits, And buoyancy
—and when we consider the scenes through which he has
passed, and tie fidelity with which he has ever fought the
battles of his country, we are quite willing to admit it re-
quired no ordinary share of energy to work through with
the success of which Mr. LAwr.rss may boast. To this
gentleman mainly were the forty-shilling freeholders in-
debted for the possession of that power which proved the
triumph of the Catholic Relief Bill—to that unprecedented
manifestation of national feeling in the North of Ireland in
1826—we mean the affair of Ballibsy, to which the Duke
of lirrrJANarox himself admitted he was obliged to bend,
and acknowledge the triumph of the people. Mr. LAW-
LESS would at this moment be the Member for Meath,
were it not for the legal bar, which a peculiar contingency
in Mr. LAWLESS'S life threw up ag iinst him. This bar,
we have been informed, and we trust correctly, is set aside,
and can ❑o longer be urged on any future occasion. The
trides of Limerick, when Mr. LAWLESS was there last
1 week, as well as many gentlemen of the most respectable
class, had an impression thrt it was his intention to can-
vass the electors of Limerick. Mr. LAWLESS'S object,
however, in visiting the South, is not a public one at pre-
sent. lie is continuing his work of the " History of Ire-
land," which he mans to carry down to the Catholic
1 Relief Bill, commencing with the first GEORGE. To this
work Mr. LAWLESS is obtaining subscriptions, and we
need not add, to effect such an object, an Irishman with
i his claims, will have no great difficulty.—Cork Abram-
; tile Chronicle, April 13.
