effected their escape, and are now in Zarnosc, where
8,000 men, besides the garrison, are collected. The
number of Dwernicki's officers was 362, or one officer
for every 16 men—an unusual proportion, which, never-
theless, may have contributed to the superiority of the
Polish army.

General Rudiger has not yet left Volhynia, the troops
which are to replace him not having yet arrived. The in-
surrection of that province is not suppressed ; on the con
trary, every favourable intelligence obtained from Poland
or Lithuania imparts to it a new impulse.
The Duke de Mortemart, the French Ambassador at
St. Petersburglt, is shortly expected in Paris.
His Royal Highness the Grand Duke of Baden, with
the Princes his brothers, intends to visit his Majesty
during his stay at Strasburg.
We are assured that the Government is preparing a na-
tional festivity to commemorate the anniversary of the days
of July, in which the glorious events it will recall will be
ennobled by a tribute of regret offered to the citizens who
fell in our memorable revolution.

A telegraphic dispatch received yesterday, the 1 1 th,
from Cherbourg, announces the arrival in that port of his
Majesty the Emperor of Brazils.

THE KING'S ANSWER TO THE MAYOR OF VALMY.

" It would have been impossible for me to have entered
Valmy without feelings of great emotion, or not to remem-
ber with pride that I contributed to its celebrity by the
part which I took in the glorious battle which derives its
name from your town. But what a number of events
have occurred since that period, and what an extensive in-
fluence has been exerted on the fate of France by the de-
fence of that hill ! What numbers of warriors then in
the ranks carrying their muskets, and who have since
risen to the highest military honours by the glorious vic-
tories which have distinguished our arms ! I have two
by my side at the present moment (Marshal Gerard and
Lieutenant-Gener ilairlet), both of whom served here as
volunteers on the 20th September, 1792. Although young
at that time, I even then had the honour of acting as a
General ; it was that which has enibled me to be of
service to my country, and from it I derive one of the most
grateful recollections of my life."

It is confidently stated that the Ministry are greatly
chagrined at having entered into an engagement to send
against Belgium a certain contingent previously agreed
upon by the Members of the Conference of London,
of which it is well known M. de Talleyrand is one.
It appears that the Ministry has ascertained that, in case it
should be pressed by the Powers to furnish its contingent,
it would be under the necessity of declaring that it is not
in its power to send the French troops upon the expedition
agreed upon.
We have been informed that a courier arrived during
the day at the residence of the Russian Ambassador, bring-
ing intelligence of the arrival of Marshal Diebitsch before
Praga on the 3d of June. The despatches contained a
statement of negociations having been opened between the
city and the Russian bead-quarters. (This is denied in
other accounts.)
The French, in the reign of Charles X., assisted the
Greeks, and saved Galotti from death. Under the Ministry
of a citizen King the Poles are left to die, and Menotti
allowed to be banged.
