LONDON,
MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 1, 1831.

The grand ceremony of opening the new
London Bridge takes place this day, and under
peculiarly favourable auspices, for a finer day
never yet burst in sunshine over the metropolis.
His MAJESTY comes in state as far as Somerset-
House, when he will proceed by water to London
Bridge, amidst the acclamations of thousands of
his subjects, anxious to take this opportunity
of testifying their profound attachment for
the most deservedly-beloved SOVEREIGN
who ever swayed the British sceptre. The pre-
parations making in all quarters for the joyous
occasion are on the most magnificent scale pos-
sible ; and wherever the eye roves, it dwells only
on happy faces.

Our Dover Correspondent informs us that an
account had reached that place from Boulogne ofa
great victory gained by the Poles over the Russian
main army. It is stated that PASKEWITSCH had
been routed with the loss of all his artillery, We
sincerely hope this news may be confirmed ; but
we suspect it as the only report spread in Paris
on Friday during the fetes. As the Hamburg
steamer will arrive this evening, with news up to
Friday last, we shall have later intelligence from
Warsaw than any yet received through the French
or German Journals.

It will be seen by the following extracts that
the Emperor NICHOLAS has deemed it prudent
for the present to explain away the attack
which had been made sometime ago on the
French Revolution in the St. Petersburgh
Journal, and for which the French Govern-
ment had demanded prompt apology.
The cholera was spreading fatally in St:
Petersburgh

ST PETERSBURGII, JULY 1.-We find the following
in the Moniteur of 15th June.

" An article has been published in the Political and
Literary Journal of St. Petersburgh of 28th May
(16th May 0. S.) It is of such nature as all for prompt,
frank, and complete explanations. They have been re-
quired."
We are authorised to declare that these explanations
have been given. They are such as an attentive perusal
of the article of the 16th and 28th May could not but
suggest. No hostile intention towards France or its
Government inspired the wording of this article, and
is only a strange prejudice of some Paris journals that
could ascribe it to such a tendency. It is now to
be remarked, that many journals, for instance, the De.
bats have given a false colouring to it by incomplete and
incorrect quotations. The only object of the article of the
16th (28th) May was to represent in their true point of
view the measures which the Emperor has been forced to
adopt, to stop in his dominions the progress of the insur-
rection, and to repair the evils which it has already caused
there. With respect to these measures several journals
have indulged in the unjust opinions and the most odious
calumnies, We never confounded the Government of
his Majesty, King Louis Philip and the sound and en-
lightened part of the French nation with the enemies of
peace and order. A refutation of their diatribes was
necessary, it was not designed nor calculated to offend, in
in any respect the dignity of the French Cab:net or the
national honour of France, consequently it cannot impair
the relations of peace and friendship between the two
countries.

The Emperor considering the numerous occupations of
the military Governor-General of St. Petersburgh, as well
as the rapidity with which the cholera has spread in his
capital, has appointed his Aide-de-Camps, Priuce Trabits-
koy and Count Orloff, to assist the Governor•-General as
temporary Governors-General, each having a district of
the city under his care.
JULY 3.—The St. Petersburgh Gazelle contains the
following official articles :-
1. An Order of the Day issued by the Emperor, dated
Alexandria, near Peterhof, July 2, addressed to the Guards
lately under the command of the Grand Duke Constan-
tine. It expresses his Imperial Majesty's entire satisfac-
tion with their conduct on the breaking out of the revo-
lution in Warsaw, and with the bravery they have since
displayed in the field. His Majesty acquaints them with
the afflicting news of the death of his Imperial Highness,
and declares his conviction that they will continue to
serve in such a manner as to merit the continuance of his
favour.

2. An account of the defeat of the rebels in the circle of
Rodomyssel, by Major Lewitski.
3. Accounts of the putting down of the insurrestion
tion in the Government ofVolhynia.

WARSAW, JULY 19.—The Warsaw Gazette says,
that on the 14th a detachment of the cavalry of Landomir
suffered severely by the imprudence of the officer who
commanded it. Lieutenant-Colonel Count Henry Mala-
choa•ski was made prisoner.
JULY 2l.—The Warsaw State Gazette of yesterday
says :—" On the 18th the Russians left the redeubt which
they had thrown up before the bridge beyond Niepawa,
and retired entirely to the right bank of the Vistula. Some
Cossacks who had ventured three (fifteen) miles from the
Vistula have been made prisoners by the peasants." The
same paper express s much surprise at the fate of General
Gielgud's corps.
The Warsaw Gazette says :—" After the Russians
with 4,000 infantry and 500 cavalry had crossed to the
left hank of the Viitula, they set about erecting redoubts
before the bridge, which is not yet completed.'
The Graad Duke Michael has been on this side to look
for a suitable spot for a camp. On our side General
Stryginski, with some squadrons of cavalry and a numerous
body of landstutm, has occupied Wloglaneck aad Bisesc-
kujaria.

On the 18th the Russians again entered Plozk. War-
saw is prepared for an attack.
POLISH FRONTIERS, JULY 22 —Hopes were enter-
tained in Warsaw, that General Chreanowski would he
able wholly to destroy or take prisoners the corps of Rudi.
