THE FUNDS.

The express this morning from Paris is of minor importance,
but it appears that great fears were entertained at Paris that the
Russians at length will overwhelm the Poles ; certainly we are
on the eve of hearing important events from that quarter, as it
appears, that the Russians are concentrating all their forces,
and withl fearful numbers, to make a tremendous attack on the
brave Poles, and the question whether Poland is to be free
or not will depend on this terrible blow ; we trust in Provi-
dence, that their guardian angel will continue to protect so
noble a race.
