POLISH NEWS.

The King reviewed on Sunday some corps of the
National Guards in the court of the Tuileries; he
was every where received with enthusiasm. Cries
of " Long live the Poles!" were once or twice heard.
The following are extracts from the Journal des
Debats of Sunday :
The news from the north is of the highe.t liven's%
The war has recommenced upon the Vistula, and the
Poles are conquerors! The corps of General GeiF-
mar and General Rosen are in full retreat ; 6,000
killed or wounded, 6,000 prisoners, fifteen cannon,
standards, muskets, &c., are the results of the memo-
rable day of the 31st of March.

The Polish Generalissimo had crossed the Vistula
on the night between the 30th and 31st of March,
and by a bold manceuvre falling by surprise upon the
army which was in observation upon the line of
Praga, he beat it hack upon the corps of General
Rosen, which was, in its turn, overwhelmed, and
driven upon that of General Geismar.
All the Russian positions were carried by storm.
The Polish General bad at first detached upon his
left General Uminsky, to observe the reinforcements
of the Imperial Guard, which were advancing on
that side.

Marshal Diebitsch, in his head-quarters of Sienica,
thus finds himself cut off by the Polish corps, which
is marching on the line of the Bug to meet him,
through the Palatinate of Augustowo.
On the Ist of April the Poles overthrew again
the remains of the divisions of Rosen and Geismar.
An officer, who set out from the camp on the Ist of
April, at half-past one o'clock, and arrived at five
o'clock at Warsaw, announces that upon his depar-
ture they had made even during that morning 2,000
prisoners, among whom were many General Officers;
they had likewise taken six cannon, and magazi'nes
and muskets.
Whole battalions laid down their arms in the
battle of the 31st of March ; perhaps this is the first
time of such an occurrence in Russian regiments.—
What demoralization must exist in their ranks!

Glory to the Polish army ! Glory to the heroic
defenders of the independence of their country !
They have paid sufficiently dear for liberty to pre-
serve it. With what joy Europe will open to them
her ranks.

While the,,e great events are passing on the banks
of the Vistula, a violent insurrection broke out on
the 28th at Wilna.—(Here is given the extract we
published yesterday from the Berlin Gazelle of the
2d inst )

Thus we have Lithuan'a almost entirely under
arms; and 15 days have scarcely passed since the
Russian Imperial Guard traversed it, marching upon
the Vistula. What tedoubled energy the victories
of the 31st and the Ist must infuse into the Lithu-
anian insuri ection ; and what confidence the news of
this insurrection must spread in its turn in the vic-
torious ranks of the Polish army ! _

We shall now leave the Official documents to
speak for themselves; recitals like these require no
commentaries. We shall only add, that authentic
letters from `Warsaw of the evening of the Ist inst.
assure us that the bulletins written in baste, so far
from exaggerating the success of these memorable
days, do not perhaps represent them as great as
they were in reality.

THEIR MAJESTIES.

(From the Windsor Express.)
Our gccti Ktiec and his beloved Consort have held
their Court this welt at t'rr James's, and it gives us great
pleasure to announce that they torrtinusr to enjoy excellent
health.
The day fixed for coming back to the Castle is the 24th
instant ; but although orders have been given for that
day, it is not improbable that the present arraneetnents at
Sr. James's in;:y detain them in the metropolis until tl e
25th. Their MAJESTIES ‘-'1!! afterwards return to Lon-
don for the grand ball on the 30th, tG be ,-riven at Drury-
lrne Thettre, for the benefit of the distressed Irieh,
at s
which all tyre members of the Royal Family will attend.
After making a selotir in town for a few hays, the KING
and QUEEN will then returg Windso: for the remainder
of the summer.
Isrothing has been decided with respect to the eontinti-
ince di' lateen and drawing-rooms after this period ; but
as the meeting of }drawing-rooms
will make it such a London
season, it is conjectured that the levees at least will Le
continued, an I in this ev, nt the Etsto wit of CMS! go to
tecni 118 u 4 s& on the Wednesdays.
We understand that, after the 4th of Ju'y, the Duel ese
of CAMBRIDGE, who arrived this country from Hama-
ver the beginning of the week, will t tbe tip her residence
tit Windsor for Same time, and that the young Prit es
will actompany his mother. During his stay at the Castle,
Prince Groacii gtntrally.smtertains a party of Etonians
every weak. The young liritiere and his friends dineabout
two o'clock, and afterwards make an exciirsion to Virginia
Water, where they amuse themselves by rowing and other
pasrimeri, fee tea shout six, after which the young stir-
dents return to College. It is expected that the young
Duke Wzr.tlAst of Brunswick alto pay a visit at the
Castle after their MAJESTIES' return. Ills Highness is a
very. fine young man, about 25 years of age, and it is Paid
dial frote his,pleasing manner and prepossessing appearance,
he has already bt:etitne te. freat favourite at Court. He is
above the common height, a2d cell formed ; his face,
which is somewhat bronzed from the jotteney) might be
pronounced English, but for the fashion of the Motettache,
whieh is worn ala Hnngraise. His stay in this country
will rtt t'e rtelortged beyond a fortnight. It is not gene-
rally known that :iii*.trtMr WAterru's boat-race, of
which the two first heats took iitaet en the 3d, was post-
poned in consequence of the KING'S having intimated his
inability to attend on the occasion. Tuesday, the 14th,
was eftere.fards fixed on by MS MAJESTY for the third
heat ; that day beifil the anniversary of his going into the
navy, his MAJESTY wished titUs appropriately to celebrate
this event.

PRUSSIAN PAPERS.

WARSAW, JUNE 6.—The Warsaw Courier says,
" The army of Field-Marshal Diebitsch, which was at
Ostrolenka, seems to have divided into three columns. One di-
vision is advancing rnoreand more westward, in the Govern-
ment of Plock ; the Cetssacks were at Szydlow, Suchocin,
and other places. The head-quarters were at 'Lowbrow.
The evening before yesterday news was received at War-
saw that the districts of the Government of Grodno, bor-
dering on Volhynia. were in a state of insurrection."
FRONTIERS OF POLAND, JUNE is said that the
War-office at Warsaw has received news, which, however,
needs confirmation, that General Chrapowski, in his ex-
pedition through the adjacent Russian-Lithuanian pro-
vinces, had entered Bizesc-Litewsky. It is not said what
brought him so far to the south, while it was rather ex-
pected that he would endeavour to operate in con-
nection with General Gielgud. The report adds, that
General Chrapowski had captured a reserve park of ar-
tillery and some magazines ; but there is the less reason to
give implicit credit to such reports, as there is now no
direct communication 1 etween Warsaw and Brzesc-
Litewsky, and therefore the news must have come in-
directly, and by a very circuitous channel. The army of
Count Diebitsch retains its positions. The Russian ad-
vanced posts are in Plousk. We learn from Lublin, that
Zamosc is closely invested by the Russians, and that old
Zamosc is in their possession.
BERLIN, JUNE 11.—A htter from Pari4, of the 7th,
mentions a fact for which it highly extols the humanity of
the Emperor Nicholas. That august Sovereign, who,
when the cholera was raging at Moscow, repaired in per.
son to that city, to order measures for checking the pro-
gress of the disorder, has now sent Dr. Kildaschewski, an
eminent physician, who was at Moscow during the whole
time, and obtained great knowledge and experiece in the
treatment of the Iliseas ~ to Po•en, with letters of recow-
mendation to Field-Marshal Count Gniesenow, and wi,l,
orders to proceed to Warsaw, in orderlo devote his great
skill to the checking of the disease in 'the capital of Po-
land, which has rebelled against his authority, to assert
which he is obliged to employ the sword, but is desirous
of saving the innocent front becoming victims. Our
Commander-in-Chief has, of course, done every thing to
promote these humane views,—Prussian State Gazette,

he demanded the ls. 6d., Mr. Hunt called him a fool,
and that had determined him to try the point.
Mr. GREGORIE advised the party to pay the fare,
as the coachmen were invariably right in the die•
tance when they took out a summons.
The defendant's sub.titute said that he was sure
Mr. Hunt would not be satisfied without the dia.
tance being measured.

Mr. Gir./ocutit.; said that he had no objection, but
he had no doubt that the coachman was right. •
The coachman said he was very willing to have the
grcund measured.

Mr. thaw°RlE—Come now, coachman,
much is it over the mile ?—" Why, your worship,"
replied 6ow.chee, sMiling;" have bettcr than thirty
yards l spai6."
The party Mill insisted on having the distance met'
sured, and paid down the expenses, which will fall
upon the losing party as usual.

Count Stgnislaus Polowski, a Polish nobleman,
who has only been a short time in this country, was
charged with violently assaulting W.A. White, Esq.
one of the magistrates of this office.
Mr. White stated that as he was passing along
the Strand, about two o'clock it; the aNlttoon, the
defendant came behind him, and struck him t%vo
violent blows t.n the back of the herd, and then rate
away.

D,:ring the time Mr. White was giving his ev
dense the prisoner conducted himself in the most
violent manner, and threw his glove; in the Malis•
trace's face.

Mr. White said that he had no doubt the prisoner
was labouring under mental derangement.
It may be recollected that a few months ago this
unfortunate nobleman was brought before Mr. White
by one of the inspectors of the T. division of police,-
charged with presenting a loaded pistol at one of the
sentries at Knightsbridge barracks.
The Magistrates,after consulting together, directed
the ofAcers to take the Count to Dr. Sutherland's
establishment, in Blackland's-lane, Chelsea, to which
place he was conveyed until Ws friends could be in•
formed of his situation.

* A friend of the writer of this letter.

ON PREVENTING THE DISCHARGE OF A
BULLET FROM A GUN BY THE FINGER.—At a sitting of
the Helvetic Society of Natural Sciences, a letter was read
from Dr. FLACHIN, of Yverdun, relative to an experiment
before na,;ntionsl to the society, in which the ball was pie.
vented from leaving the bottom of a musket when the
gunpowder was fired, simply by putting the ramrod
upon the ball, and the end of the finger upon the
ramrod. He supposes the effect may be explained by
the circumstance, that near the charge the ball has
a very small velocity compared to that impressed upon it by
the expansive force of the gases from the fired gunpowder,
when exerted during the whole of the time in which it is
passing ah,ng the barrel. It is well known that the effect
thus accumulated is the reason why long pieces carry
further than short ones, and why the breath of a man,
II which cannot exert a pressure of more than a quarter of
lan atmosphere; may, by means of a tube, throw a ball to
the distance of sixty steps. The experiment above re-
quires great care, espe'cially as to the strength of the piece,
which is very liable to burst in the performance of the ex •
periment.—Hamburg Reporter.
SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE.—Some time
since a girl belonging to Wick took up her abode with an,
acquaintance in Buckie. She was at the time in a state
of pregnancy. On Sunday last she quitted the roof of
her acquaintance, for the purpose of residing pro
tempore, with a sister at no great distance ; hut on reach-
ing her sister's house she wai refused admittance. Im-
mediately after being repulsed from the door of her sister
she was taken in the pains of labour. She nevertheless
attempted to make for the house of an acquaintance, but
failed in the effort. Overcome with pain and exhaustion,
she gave birth to her child in an open close. It being
late at night, and no one present, the poor creature took
up the child in her arms, and carried it to the nearest
house. The child is but poorly, but the mother is doing
wonderfully well.—Elgin Courier.

RATING SMALL TENEMENTS.

Mr. STANLEY moved for leave to bring in a Bill for
the purpose of better rating small tenements.

STEA:Ii-ENGINES.

Mr. RUTHVEN moved for a return of all steam-
engines made use of in Great Britain and Ireland, or in
vessels belonging to their respective ports and harbours,
setting forth their numbers in the following different
classes, viz.—those under 20-horse power, those from 20
to 40-horse power, those from 40 to 60-horse power, those
from 60 to 100-horse power, and specifying the respective
shires, counties, or other denominations in which they have
been employed.—After the motion was seconded,
Lord ALTIIORP thought it impossible that such a
return as this could be procured, and on that ground alone
he should oppose the motion, though undoubtedly it would
be advisable to obtain the information if it were possible.
Mr. HUNIE said no obstacle should be thrown in the
way of steam-engines, at a moment when we were engaged
in a disadvantageous competition witla the rest of the
world. Besides this, it would be impossible to get the
information ; Government had no power to compel such
a return ; they could not have a right to enter his house
and ask him whether he had a machine of twenty or
thirty-horse power.—(Loud laughter).
The motion was withdrawn.

Mr. RUTHVEN moved for a return of all sums of
money bequeathed for the benefit of the poor in Ireland,
of which the several municipal Corporations in that country
have been constituted trustees or guardians, stating the re-
spective sums, by whom and when bequeathed, with the
different periods at which they have been received, as well
as bow they have been appropriated, or in whose hands
they now remain.—Agreed to.

MR. BARING WALE,

Me. Bsring Wall, having made a speech against the
Reform Bill in the last Parliament, got very much ap-
plauded in the House of Commons, and very much beaten
at Guildford. To vindicate his spredi, he wrote a
stitouuet.
nts liked the one as little as the
To repair his misfortunes in Surrey, Mr. Baring Wall
(nlier: pamphlet,t they
byu turnedt il
him
travels westward ; and, as a vacancy will be made in the
representation of Illelcombe -Regis, alias Weymouth, he is
no longer an anti-reforming anti-ministerial candidate, but,
sailing on the other tack, assures his friends arid the public
in Dorsetshire, that he always has been, and is, and will be
evermore, an advocate of " such a Reform as may be
granted consistently with the acknowledged principles of
the Constitution, by which the prerogatives of the Crown,
the authority of both houses of Parliament, and the rights
and liberties of the people may be secured."
By thus copying the words of the King's speech, Mr.
Raring Wall must either mean that he is a a supporter of
the ministerial measure of Reform, or lie is waggish enough
to wish to play off his Majesty's definition of Reform
against his Majesty's scheme of Reform.
Now this is very clever, or, what some folks think as
good, is very cunning; but it is not new. The merit of
the device belongs to Sir Edward Knatclibull, who tried
it on the Kent freeholders with a success commensurate
with its real value; that is to say, both Kentish men and
men of Kent laughed at his learning, and the Baronet
never came to the poll.
'The fate of Mr. Baring Wall will not be quite the
same. He will come to the poll. 'The boroughnionger-
ing party—the Johnstone estate voters—will support him,
and if he could but take in a reforming voter or two by
the above-mentioned masterly though not novel contri-
vance, he might have some chance of success. It is to
be hoped, however, that those who sent Mr. Weyland to
Parliament because he is a known supporter of the great
Bill, will not be so exceedingly gullible as to supply his
place by returning Mr. Baring Wall, one of the bitterest and
most virulent of all the opposers, not only of the Bill itself,
' but of the King's Ministers generally. Had Mr. Baring
Wall assured the Weymouth electors that all his Parlia-
! tnentary efforts would be directed to defeat the Bill and to
turn out the Ministers, he would perhaps have somewhat
diminished his hopes of obtaining his wishes, but he
would have spoken the truth, and there is more satiefav-
tion in that course than in obtaining any object by " finess-
ing and trick."

KING'S PRINTER.

Mr. HUME recalled to the recollection of the House the
Committee which last Session had been appointed to in-
quire into the Patent of the King's Printer. That Com-
mittee he wished to have re-appointed, with this addition
to their instructions : that they should ascertain in what
manner the drawback affected the price of the article pro-
duced. He moved that a Select Committee be appointed
to inquire into the nature and extent of the Patents of the
King's Printer in England, Scotland, and Ireland, to as-
certain whether they have been beneficial to the Govern-
ment or the country, what effect has been produced by the
drawback, and whether the printing for both Houses of
Parliament could be performed with more economy.—The
Committee was appointed.

lIYDROPIIOBIA.

Mr. Alderman WOOD rose to move for leave to bring
in a Bill to prevent the spreading of canine madness.
Neither the smiles of one party nor the frowns of another
should prevent him from doing his duty. He had, at the
suggestion of the Right Hon. Baronet then Secretary of
State (Sir Robert Peel), moved for a Committee to in-
quire into the subject, and it was proved before that Com-
mittee that the disease was spreading. He did not know
whether it was intendeil to offer any opposition to the mo-
tion, but if it was so, he should certainly take the sense
of the House on the question, in order to see if they were
more disposed to favour their animals than the human
species.—Leave given. •

WARSAW, MAY 30.

(EXTRACT OF A PRIVATE I:EITER.)
I wrote in my last that General Lubienski had
received a repulse; but now, however, it cannot be
called so, for that General had a corps only 7,000
strong, and Diebitsch passed the river near the
Ciechanawiec with upwards of 30,000 men, and
surrounded him. General Niedlierdt summoned Lu-
bienski to surrender, saying that he could not re-
treat, as all the passages were closed. Lubienski
answered that the Poles did not understand the word
" surrender," and as for a passage, he would snake
one with Polish bayonets. He subsequently advanced
towards an immense Russian column, which on see-
ing him coming, appeared to make way to let him
pass, but behind it a strong battery was placed,which
opened its fire upon him. He immediately ordered
the cavalry to charge on one side, and the infantry
on the other, put the battery in disorder, and cut a
road through.
The battle of Ostrolenka was the most sanguinary
of the campaign, not excepting that of the 25th of
February. The Polish loss is now ascertained to
have been about 3,000, that of the Russians 9,000.
Things look at present very encouraging. The
Russians, notwithstanding their boast of victory,
have not dared to follow the Poles, who, in their
position at Raga, have not, up to the present date,
seen or heard any thing of DieYisch or his army..
