day, of the 24th ult., from Warsaw, mention the fall
of Lomza, an important fortified position. In fact,
the Berlin letters, not always favourably disposed to
accounts of Polish victories, dated on the 29th, re-
peat the descriptions in the Warsaw journals of
these successes, and mention that the Grand Duke
Constantine had retreated from Bialystock, where
he had the reserve of the Imperial Guards, which
he meant to establish at Grodno.
Prince Czartoriski was about to leave Warsaw
for the army on the Lithuanian frontier : and Riga
letters announce the departure for Prussian ports, of
a number of vessels which had been previously
charged to bring subsistence from Livonia for the
Russian army.
The Poles estimate the effective strength of their
forces at 70,000 men, and 30,000 volunteers. Praga
was so well fortified, that the French officers lately
arrived declared the position to be impregnable.
Diebitsch had about 80,000 men under his command,
of which 24,000 were in the province of Lublin, un-
der the orders of General Toll. In the north, then,
the noble spirit of freemen is blueing with a steady
light.
One of the Warsaw papers of the 24th contains
a long and severe article upon the policy of the
French Government, particularly in the withdrawal
of General Guilleminot from Constantinople. The
last letters from the French physicians at Warsaw
are very favourable as to the diminution of the con-
tagion of the cholera morbus, which appears to have
rapidly yield to their sedative plan of treatment, and
the separation of the patients into small detached
and airy %N ards in the hospitals.
Every thing, in fact, connected with Polish affairs,
according to the intelligence received in Paris this
day, is cheering.
POINTE-A-PETRE, GUADALOUPE, MAY 24.-Our
misery is at its height; famine menaces us ; we
have no more subsistence. To avoid the extremity
of distress, the Government has sent to seek Ameri-
can flour. We know well enough how prejudicial
this step must be to our metropolitan trade, when we
have more need than ever of French commerce.
With this view it is decided that this flour is only to
be sold little by little, and for cash, at a small profit,
for ae use of the poor. In our finances we shall
have a deficit of about 2,000,000 (francs). Money
is very scarce, and our prospects most gloomy.
Freight gets higher every day ; it is now at 18
deniers par livre, for Havre, Nantes, and Bour-
deaux. The price of sugars, on the other hand,
constantly falls. The best quality does not sell
for more than 20 to 24 francs. With money a
good thing might be made here; but who has it ?
Nevertheless, we have a great number of ships in
our road, and more sugar than they could all con.
tain. There are here, from Bourdeaux, the Elisa,
Europe, Adolphe and Fanny, and Colon.
We learn this instant that on the evening of the
21st, our troops carried.Tykoczin, a frontier town on
the Bobra, by assault. The Imperial Guards at-
tached great importance to this position, and de-
fended it furiously. Nothing could, however, resist
the Polish attack. Colonel Latigermann (General
Lamarque's aide-de-comp, who lately left Paris and
joined the Poles) covered himself with glow, in an
attack at the head of a single battalion.-Warsaw
