WARSAW, JUNE 27.—About twenty young citi-
zens, from Podolia, have succeeded in getting to
Poland, and arrived on the 23d at Warsaw. They
assert then the whole of the Government of Kiyow

is in insurrection:
The :late Gazette contains the following account
of the expedition undertaken nsainst General Rudi-
getis corps, extracted from the letter °ran officer of
rink, date) from the cemp of Lazkorzew:—
" Our expedition, which might have had a bril-
liant result, has filled ce with trouble and moriflea-
ti it. Full of jey, and in the hope of defeating
Geneial Rudiger, we hastened to Kozk. 0.1 the
way, at Stoczel, Genetal Jankowski, to our tnisfot-
t tine, took the command. We were to ham crossed
'he Wieptz, hi order to meet General Rudiger and
surround him with superior forces, when he, it
is impossible to tell with what view, came sud-
denly in the way. Some prisonets, taken by
General Kaminski near Serokornie, informed the
General that the enemy had passed the \Vieprz,
at Lysobyki, with six thousand infantry, four regi-
ments of cavalry, and ten pieces of cannon. Gene-
ral Jankowski now held a Council of War, in which,
apparently on the recommendation of Major Bien,
of the Quartermaster's Staff, the following plan was
adopted :—General Turno should atteck in front, itt
the directian of Seroknmla ; on the first gun being
tired, General Jankowski should hasten to support
him with a considerable force ; the corps of General
Romarino, on the left wing, and the corps of General
Bukowski, which was placed as an advanced guard
against any attack at Kozk, were to push forward
from Bialob:zegi upon the enemy's right wing. In
this way the enemy would in a few hours have been
overpowered even though he had concentrated the
rest of his corps, for oar force was not only su-
perior, hut the spirit of our soldiers displayed
the highest state of moral courage, as the attack
made by General Turn() clearly proved. The whole
of this plan, the execution of which depended upon
General Jankowski, failed. Turno, indeed, in the
performance of his part, attacked with the greatest
vigour an enemy three times his s'rength. While
expecting support from every quarter, he maintained
himself under a heavy fire of artillery and sharp-
shooters, and was even attacked in the rear by
Russian infantry, who issued from the adjoining
wood. In this situation, in which our 3d regiment
of infantry, with the most heroic courage withstood
the whole body of the enemy's infantry, General
Turno maintained the combat during six hours.
Meanwhile Generals Jankowski and Bukowski, who
%%Ito were only about six wends from Golet al Turno,
particularly Bukowski, who had with him l 6 squa-
drons and some artillery, and who must have secis
the fire of the cannon in the action, remained per-
fectly inactive. Moreover, while General Tonto
.e as engaged, the enemy's rear-guard moved
from its position to between the corps of Ge-
nerals Jankowski and Bukowski, and carried off
some ammunition, baggage, and a chest which had
been left unprotected. General Turno behaved as
became a Pole bravely and nobly ; he fought un-
dauntedly though left without any support. At last
he, as well as General Romarino, who was advanc-
ing to his aid, received definitive orders to retreat.
To crown the whole, in the retreat 300 cavalry
were left behind in Kozk, as if devoted to destruc-
tion, for they were surrounded by a regiment of
cavalry, two battalions of infan'rv, and two pieces
of cannon ; but by singular good fortune, to the
great astonishment of the Russians, the 300 cavalry
escaped without loss. General Rudiger is probably
not yet recovered from his surprise at finding, that
after such a rash enterprise, which exposed him to
be surrounded on three sides by superior forces,
with the river and a marsh in his rear, he was able
to fall back and avoid a total defeat. Our troops
are indignant at losing, through such conduct on
the part of their Commander and his brother-in-law;
so decided an advantage. This is the fist example
of such an operation in this campaign. How can it
be justified ? ' "

MEETING OF PROPRIETORS OF DRURY-
LANE THEATRE.—Tbe annual general assembly of the
proprietors and shareholders was held on Saturday, at two
o'c:ock, in the saloon of the theatre. There were not 3t
person present, amongst whom were Lord GLENUALL and
Mr. C. W. Ws-NN. Mr. G. Bontsrs, having taken the
chair, called upon Mr. DUNN, the treasurer, to read the
report of the committee, from which we extract the fol-
lowing passage relative to the pecuniary' affairs of the
theatre :—" The Committee have to request the attention
of the general assembly to the annual statement of accounts
now before them. The ground landlord, and all other
demands upon the proprietors, are paid in full up to Mid-
summer, amounting to 4,1 k 61. 17s. 9d. The renters' an-
nuities have been paid to the account of their trustee, at
Messrs. RANSOII and Co 's for 200 nights amounting to
:3,750/. The balance of the bankers amounts to 2,1641.
13s. 3d., a sum sufficient to discharge t e interest upon
the bond to the Ist of July instant, and all other incidental
claims upon the proprietors. In closing this report, the
Committee beg to state that they have realized their in-
tention (communicated to the last general assembly) of
paying the two yea's' interest due upon the bond debt to
ti.e Ist of July, 1830, and that very eatly in the ensuing
season they contemplate reducing the principal, which
now stands at 9,4101. Bs. Id., with interest to the present
time. And the Committee trust that in the exercise of
their judgment in all matters confided to their care, they
have used the best exertions for the interest of the pro-
tary."
O'GORMAN MAIION.—OiI Tuesday after-
noon a number of students waited on this gentleman, at
Vie Eagle Inn, Glasgow, to receive a memorial fruits their
Learned Brethren of Paris, acknowledging the congratula-
tory address which was transmitted to them on their three
glorious dog-days of last year. O'Gnst.stawmade af w tri-
colour speeches, abundantly sprinkled, of course, with the
divine essence of genuine liberty, fit to excite the patriotic
. aspirations of any one, and particularly of the ardent group
who surrounded him, and who appeared equally delighted
, and edified with the able manner in which the liberal-
. minded stranger translated the interesting communication.

THE CASE OF MISS FRIZELL.—We are
assured that the ►try of this young lady's death, which
originally appeared in a Sunday contemporary, is wholly
untrue. A correspondent, who has written to us on the
subject, states, that the faculty of Paris, London, Edin-
burgh, and Dublin, are unanimous in their opinion, that
no medicine has been discovered which could produce the
effects sworn to by the young lady. He adds, no fewer
than 13 witnesses, all from the ramp of the enemy, from
ornscientious motives are ready to impeach the evidence
given on the trial.—Sunday Times.

NOVEL THEFT.—On the forenoon of
Friday last, a novel theft was attempted in the church-yard
t Lileswade. While the two sextons were digging a grave,
they turned up two sculls : one was that of a female, and
the teeth remarkably white and fresh. They were laid
carefully aside, in order that they might be again put into
the grave at the proper time. In the meantime two finely
dressed young ladies entered the cemetery, walked about for
,ime time, took a view of the new made grave, and de-
parted. Immediately after their disappearance the scull of
the female was missed. Suspicion fell on the fair visitants,
they were promptly pursued, and it was carefully wrapped
tip in one of their silk gowns. The young lady, blushing,
,ffered it back, but the indignant grave-digger obliged tier
to carry it back ancUleposit it on the very ►pot from which
it had been lifted. It is believed that the ladies had
agreed to steal the scull for the sake of the remat kahle
t teeth.— &Osman..
