that a third irruption of the northern barbarian is
not beyond the verge of probability. Against such
a scourge of humanity, a stedfast union between
England and France is the surest preservative ti at
can, at present, be pointed out.

The following are exiracts from German Papers
eceived this morning. With regard to the Polish
news, they are decidedly Russian in their wishes
and misrepresentations:—

AUGSBURG, JAN. 27 —The latest numb .rs of the
Courrier de Smyrne, from sth to 19th December, that
we have received, bring no news front Candia, so that the
news given in the French journals, that. the island was
almost wholly subdued, seems rather doubtful. There is
merely an article in which all the blame of the continuance
,if the insurrection is laid on the Sphackiots, with an in.
timation that so long as Regnieri is at the head of the in-
surgents, the exhortations of the President of Greece to
submission may be considered as illusory. The Courrier
indeed continues to accuse the President of despotism, and
of all possible intrigues, while on the ether hand it con-
•tautly indicates Prince Paul of Wurtembing as the man
who has the most hope, and at the same time the hest
qualified, to the Crown of Greece. The Courrier de
Smyrne gives an explanation worthy of attention respect-
ing the letter, (subsequently proved to be a forgery), which
the Plenipotentiaries of England, France, and Russia were
said to have addressed to the President of Greece,
in which they were made to give him great praises for his
Administration, to promise him an extension of the fron-
tiers, great assistance against the seditious, and the Re-
gency of Greece during the minority of the Prince to be
chosen. It is remarkable that the letter, the style of
which was calculated to excite suspicion at the first sight,
was copied into the official Greek Journal of the Ist (13th)
Nov., and quoted, for its authority the Allgemeine Zeitung,
but on the 12th (24th) Nov. said that the articla first
appeared in the Lausanne Gazette, but as it now ap-
peared, was a forgery, and characterised as such by the
English papers.
The Courrier de Smyrne calls the attention of its
readers to the concern which M. Eynard, the President's
friend, may have had in that article of the Lausanne
Gazette, and how seasonably that letter came to support
the intrigues of the President in the interior of Greece.
Unhappily, it says, Admiral Malcolm saw through the
affair, arid, in conjunction with his colleagues, the
Commanders of the French and Russian squadrons,
had required the article to he immediately contradicted.
VIENNA, JAN. 20.—Prince Emilius, of Hesse Darm-
stadt, who lately entered the Austrian service, has arrived
here, and will make a considerable stay. We learn from
Gallicia that the cholera has attacked several persons on
the frontiers, and that some have died, but that the disor-
der as it advances has a far less malignant character than
in Russia. I: is therefore hoped that it will become
milder in proportion as it advances towards the west.
The Commissioners who are to go to Milan to receive
the bride of his Majes•y King Ferdinand of Hungary will
set out the day alter to-morrow.
FROST THE POLISH FRONTIERS, JAN. IS.—We are
now generally convinced in these parts that an amicable
arrangement with the Emperor Nicholas is no longer to
be thought of. Till the 12th inst. there was still a gleam
of hope that a mediation might take place. But the Em-
peror will not and cannot extend the amnesty to the ring-
leaders themselves. The sequestration of the estates of
Prince Adam Ccartoryski, and the sending of 300 students
of Wilna into the interior of the empire by Count Novosilzoff,
indicate that the most vigorous measures will be adopted.
And what permanent resistance can unhappy Poland—a
prey to licentiousness and insubordination—make to the
Russian army of 150,000 men, and, with the addition of
the Guards, 180,000 ? It sounds very well, when the
Warsaw Journals speak every day of the enthusiasm with
which all eassts take arms. But the most part exists
only on paper. The Germans who daily arrive on the
frontiers, after flying at the hazard of their lives from
Warsaw, represent the whole country as infested hy
swarms of armed peasants and scythe-bearers, who make
all the roads unsafe, and treat every one who is leaving
Poland aa a traitor or a spy. It seems evident that the
brave and prudent Chlopieti, designed from the first to in-
duce the Emperor Nicholas—allegiance to whom has never•
been renounced—to cause the Constitution promised by Alex-
ander, in 1 Sl4, to be completely carried into execution, so
that Poland might become an allied kingdom, governing it-
self. But then nothing should have been said of the re union
of the ancient Polish provinces. In this point the authors
and chiefs of the insurrection at Warsaw have greatly
erred in their calculations. The inhabitants of these
countries have long since ceased to be Poles, if they ever
were such. This was found by Napoleon in his Russian
campaign. If the chiefs of the conspiracy Lelewel, Os-
trowski, &c. had had their way, they would have made
much less ceremony with the Cesarewitsch, would have
passed the Polish frontiers in December, and have revo-
lutionised the old Polish provinces, notwithstanding the
corps of the Russians, which was then by no means com-
plete. Hence the animosity against Chlopieki, who has
kept them in bounds. On the other hand, the moderate
and more prudent party is satisfied that by this delay the
way to negociation is still left open.
Cassia,. JAN. 23 —The Duke of Cambridge arrived
on the 21st at Gottingen, and intended to hear in person
the desires of the citizens.

VIENNA, J*w. 17.—Letters from Czernowitz, in the
Buckowina, say that the cholera begins to spread in Gal-
licia. Symptoms of it Lave appeared in Hussyadin and
other places, and fifteen persons have already fallen vic-
tims to it in the village of Wolycei, when it first appeared
within our frontiers.

The latest letters from Odessa and Constantinople say
nothing of disturbances in Persia.

We have given extracts from Paris Papers in eur
tact page, with the funds of Wednesday.
The following are further extracts from the Papers
dated Wednesday and yesterday :
General Berthrz:ne is appointed Governor of Algiers
and Commander-in-Chief of the troops in Africa. He
will set out on Tt.ursday.
General Chefkin, who was sent to Paris by the Empe-
ror Nichol is about a month ago, on a confidential mis-
sion, is about to return to Sc. Pererslwrgh.
The Carlists are circulating in the department of the
Eure a printed paper in favour of Charles X., under the
title of " A Prayer fur the King." The Journal de
Rouen, which copies the production, says that judieid
proceedings have been commenced in consequence of its
publication.

The Duke of Brunswick has published in a German
paper a declaration that he has not abdicated, and that is
is not hie intention to do so.

Letters from Hanover of the 25th ult., state positive
intelligence had been received there of serious disturb-
ances having broken out in Friesland. The Government
has sent off troops with the utmost despatch, to quell the
insurrection.

Extract of a private letter from Frankfort, dated Ja-
nuary 28 :—" A courier has arrived here from Warsaw
with letters, according to which General Chlopieki has
been re-invested with the absolute dictatorship and full
discretionary power to make war or peace, the first use
of which was to offer submission to Russia, by a new de-
pot ition to St. Petersburgh. Although this news is not
official, it has hid a favourable influence on the public
funds. The five per cents. Metall.ques rose to 91, the
four per cents. to 76k, the Vienna Bank Shares to 1282,
and the Polish Bonds to 451. At Berlin the public fubds
have experienced a similar rise. The last news we have
received from that capital coincide in assurances that there
was every probability that the afflirs of Poland would be
amicably arranged.

Intelligence from Warsaw has reached us, by way of
Berlin, to the 21st ult. On the 20th, the Council of
War, in conjunction with the National Council, had a
sitting, with deputations from both the Chambers of the
Diet. Their object was to appoint a Commander••in-
Chief. The candidates were Prince Michael Radzivill and
Generals Weisenhoff, Shernbeck, and Kryckowiocky.
Prince Michael Radzivill obtlined 107 votes, and was pro-
claimed Commander of the Army.

FuoNTrEits OF POLAND, JAN. 18. —lt appears certain
that the brave and circumspect Chlopieki has had, from
the beginning of the revolution, no other object in view
than that of inducing the Emperor Nicholas, whose orders
be never refused to obey, to execute in all points the Con-
stitution promised by the Emperor Alexander in 1814,
according to which Poland was to have become a separate
kingdom, and to have been governed by its ewn laws.
(From tl:e Temps.)
We learn from the Isle of Bourbon, that in consequence
of the ridiculous, unfortunate, and expensive expedition
against Madagascar, an embassy has been sent to Ermine
which has met with no better success than the previous
hostilities. The Queen refused to receive the envoys, all
of whom have returned to Bourbon except one M. Ron_
Lanny, who remains at Tanmarive.
