FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Messager des Chambres, May 9.)

WARSAW, APRIL 26.—We learn that Gen. Dwernicki
has completely beaten the Russians, commanded by Gen.
Rudiger, near Loutek. In this brilliant affair twelve pieces
of cannon were talon, and many prisoners, among whom
was General Rudiger himself. A whole pulk of Cossack%
was found dead in the river Styr. The remains of the
troops were cut in pieces and dispersed, so that the corps
may be looked upon as totally destroyed. This news,
which we received from an authentic source, is confirmed
by different private communications. According to direct
reports which have just arrived, the Poles have also taken
possession of the military chest of the Russians.
It must have been seen, by the extracts from the Polish
Gazettes, that the head-quarters of Skrzynecki have been
removed from Jakobow to Minsk, that is to say, he has
retreated towards Warsaw. We must therefore conclude
that Marshal Diebitsch has united all his forces before
Siedlec, which is his point d'appui, and that, on the other
hand, the Poles are concentrating at about twelve or fifteen
leagues' distance from their capital. In his excellent Pro.
clamation, so remarkable for its noble frankness, the Po-
lish Generalissimo explicitly informs his companions in
arms and his fellow-citizens, that the contest undertaken
with so much impetuosity is not yet at an end, and he ex-
horts them to confidence and perseverance, particularly
should the events of the war require retrograde movements.
. .

Diebitsch is then about to march on Warsaw with all his
army in one united mass, in place of advancing as formerly
in several corps, along, as it were, the radii of a circle, of
which Warsaw was to be the centre. Thus, as we have
already explained, a new series of military operations is
commencing. After the checks which the Russians
formerly experienced, and after the fruitlessness of their
different attempts, a fourth plan of campaign is about to be
developed. Each of the armies hat resumed its original
part—the Russians cannot now, as upon the former occa-
sion, arrive in sight of Praga without having to fight battles
on their road, and to force positions with great loss of men,
these positions having been recently fortified with great
care. Besides, who can tell that Skrzynecki may not, by
one of those bold and daring movements, which are peculiar
to him, once again throw himself on the flank of Diebitach,
and force him to abandon his prey at the very moment when
he believe, that he is seising on it.
PARIS, MAY B.—We are assured that the King is
about to commence the journey which he intends to make
in all parts of the kingdom, in order to make personal in-
quiries into the wants and wishes of the inhabitants.
Upon this occasion his Majesty is to visit the departments
of Normandy, which run parallel with the Seine, and stay
at Rouen and Havre, and perhaps at Cherbourg. His
Majesty's departure will probably t.dee place a few days
after the review of the National Guard. Among the
persons who, it is mentioned, will accompany the King are
the Ministers of War and Marine.

A letter from Perpignan, dated April 29, says—" If
the accounts of travellers are to be believed, the forces of
Catalonia amount to from 13,000 to 14,000 men."

On the 26th there arrived at Berga a quantity of fire-
arms, destined for the arming of the Royalists of the
district of Manreza.

The following is an extract of a letter from Modon,
dated May 2 :—" The Mainotes are in arms, and hostilities
have begun between them and the Greek troops. General
Schneider is of opinion that no intervention ought to take
place, unless the Mainotes should resort to acts of piracy."
It is said that an English fleet and 16,000 men have
arrived at Malta.

REFORM LOYAL AND PATRIOTIC FUND.
ALL Subscriptims received subsequent to
May 8, will be advertised in the Morning Papers
To-Morrow, May 12.
The Committee have exhausted nearly the whole of the
sums already subscribed. They have given effectual aid to
the Reformers in Seven Towns and Cities, and are sup-
portinc, the National Cause at this moment in no less than
Ten Counties. They call, therefore, upon the Public to
continue those exertions which have hitherto been so suc-
cessful; nearly half of the Elections in the United King-
dom remain still undecided, and fresh demands are daily
made upon the Funds of the Commitive. It is confidently
hoped that not only the Metropolitan Local Committees,
but the Reformers in every County, will not relax their
aid, but will generously exert themselves to procure con-
tribution., and thereby enable the Committee to give as-
sistance to those places, where, if assistance is not speedily
afforded, the Funds of the Anti-Reformers may overpower
the Popular Candidates.
