BRZSLAII, MARCH 2.—The senate and the old order of
things will probably be soon restored in Cracow, as the
insurgents arc driven by the Austrians to rodgorse, and
the Austrians were on the heights at a short distance
fern that town on the 25th, in the morning, It is con-
firmed that the Ualicien peasants will have nothing()
do with the revolution, and have either killed on the spot

or token prisoners the nobles, and delivered them to the
Austrians.

BRESLAU, NIARCII 3.—The clerks of the Prussian Post-
office in Cracow have arrived here, and all communica-
tion with that city is so far broken off. Our troops are
to cross the frontiers to-morrow, and it is thought that in
four or five days Cracow will be occupied by the Aus-
trians and Prussians without Much bloodshed, and the
old order of things rostored. The resident of our court
at Cracow, who is now here,
_has received orders from
Be

elfin immediately to follow the troops and return to his
post.—Humburgh Papers, March 6.
BERLIN, MARCH s.—On the evening of the 3d of this
month, the civil and military authorities in Posen were
informed that an attempt was to be made in the night to
release th prisoners arrested as implicated in the revo-
lutiensry conspiracy, and in fact suspicious assemblages
appeared at nightfall in and about the town. The ne-
cessary precautions were taken, guards posted, and
patrols were sent out in all directions. These were twice
fired at, once upon a waggon without any of the soldiers
being wounded, who, however. fired a few shots, by
whi.!ls two of the insurgents were killed, and two wounded
and taken prisoners. Besides this, bet ween 40 and 50
suspicious persons were arrested (some of whom were
armed), and several waggons loaded with arms and am-
munition seized. By daybreak all was quiet, and nothing
was to be seen of the insurgents. The authorities pub-
lished a notice to the inhabitants on the 4th.
A considerable landowner of the province of Posen,
who has just returned from Galicia, gives a frightful
account of what has passed in that country.
Emissaries of the propaganda in Paris, London, and
Brussels, having been at work for about two years,
imagined that the time was come when a revolution
might be attempted with certainty of success, and com-
menced their operations at the little town of Patine,
near Tarnon. Seen nobles and some peasants went
to the house of the syndic, and summoned him to draw
up a proclamation and to join them. lie expressed his
readiness to do so; but doubted whether they were
strong enough to make such an attempt. Re
proposed that they should seek to precure more
partisans, and in the meantime he would do his best.
Satisfied with this they departed, but au hour afterwards
sent a messenger to the Military Governor, informing
himof the circumstance. On this they returned to
L'ilsno and murdered the magistrate in a most barbarous
manner. On the same day a band of peasants with
nine noblemen entered the town of Dembice, where
they invited the bailiff to join them. He refused,
representing the folly and fatal consequence of such a
criminal attempt. One of the nobles shot him dead, and
called on the peasants to plunder the town. They, how-
ever, moved by the energetic speech of the bailiff, and
indignant at his murder, refused. A dispute arose, in
which two peasants were shot by the nobles, on which
the remainder fell on the insurgents and killed them all.
In the circle of Tarnon, where the petty nobles are
very numerous, the band of insurgents amounted to
three or four hundred persons. A number of peasants
was sent by them into the town, to assist them in their
meditated attack. The Jews in Tarnon soon found, by
conversation with the peasants, what was intended, and
informed the High Bailiff, who addressed them in an
animated speech, which they received with applause.
He promised ten florins for every one of the rebels taken
with arms in his hand, whom they should bring in dead
or alive. The result was that the rebels, not expecting
any resistance, were surrounded, and a earful massacre
ensued. 130 corpses were found on the following morn-
ing, and 90 severely wounded were brought in, for whom
the promised reward was paid.
Though the magistrates cannot be censured for re-
sorting to these means of defence in their extreme dis-
tr,ss. They did not consider the difficulty of again
calming the unchained passions, and to prevent a civil
war, the atrocities of which will be encouraged by hatred,
revenge, self-interest, and plunder. A similar offer of
reward has been made in other circles. The eff.cts im-
mediately follow; the peasants fell not only on the armed
insurgents, but on the nobles in general, not sparing
even their wives and children. They did not confine
their fury to the nobles, but extended it to their servants,
then to the citizens and peaceable inhabitants—in short,
to all who did not wear the peasant's smock-frock. In
the town of Dembice they killed all the inhabitants ex-
cept three individuals. In a word the excesses com-
mitted are frightful.—Universal Prussian Gazette,
March 6.

BRUSSELS, MARCH B.—The Minister of Finance presented
to-day to the Chamber of Representatives a project of law;
granting to the war department a provisional credit for
three millions francs. This may be considered as confirming
the reports in circulation that provisional votes of credit
will be asked for the departments, the budget of which is
not yet voted, and that the Chambers will then be adjourned
if the Ministerial crisis does not soon come to a definitive
solution.
The statement relative to M. Van de Weyer yesterday,
given by the Independance, was correct. M. Van de Weyer
has, in fact, been commissioned by the King to form a
Cabinet. It remains to be seen whether M. Van do Weyer
had accepted this commission. The Inelepeadance must be
perfectly able to inform us.
M. Van de Weyer has had two interviews with his Ma-
jesty. We have not been able to learn whether any resolu-
tions have been taken.
BRUSSELS, MAncn 6.—We have been on the point &seeing
the Ministerial crisis terminate in an unexpected manner.
Yesterday evening the Ministry had at length succeeded
in agreeing on all the questions relative to education. The
project received the assent of all the members of the Cabinet
—everyone resumed his pariefeuide. The project was to be
pre:ented to the Chamber to-day.
This morning, we regret to say, there was a new incident.
We are assured that the Minister of the Interior has receded
from the conference which he made the day before.
The Ministry, therefore, has for a second time resigned ; we
have now to look to an adjournment of the Chambers for a
longer or shorter period, and the reconstruction of the
Cabinet in this interval. And we repeat have ire not a
right to expect more decision, more resolution in our statesmen
It is said to be probable that explanations will be given to
the Chambers to-morrow.
It is scarcely certain that M. Van de Weyer has been
desired by the King to reconstitute the Cabinet—it is still
doubtful whether he has accepted the commission, and efforts
are already made to prevent the success of this plan.
VIENNA, Mulct' I.—AcCounts from the commander of the
division of Imperial troops at Tarnow, of the 25th of Feb.,
say that insurgents continue to be brought in who have been
arrested by the country people, with the aid of the military ;
thus, on the 24th in the afternoon, in searching the castle of
Prince Sangusko, in Gumnisk, the Justiciary Lonchamp was
arrested, who, on the 19th in the morning., was the leader
of the insurgents collected near Tarnow, who immediattly
dispersed on the advance of the Imperial troops from the
town. The country people everywhere assist the authorities
ill capturing the insurgents, who are hid in th forest. -
The Austrian troops, notwithstanding their-great exertion
and fatigue in the service, era in admirable order in every
respect.
According to accounts received from Limburgof the 2.1 d
February, in the evening, perfect tranquillity prevailed iii
that capital, with the exception of the lying reports that were
circulated. The country people in the circles of Sainbor an d
Limburg have declared in a mass against the insurgents,
and deliver to the authorities all that fall inip their banes.
The same is the case in the neighbouring circles.—Austrian
Observer, March 1.

DEATH OF CAPTAIN HIERN, OF THE VIRGINIAN.—
We regret to announce the death of Captain Meru, the respected
commander of the packet ship Virginian, which arrived here on Fri-
day evening last, from New York. On Saturday an inquest was held
before the Borough coroner, on view of the body. It appeared, from
the evidence of Daniel Berry, the steward, that on the 27th ultimo
the vessel was about tws hundred miles to the northward of the
Western Islands. The captain was in what is called " the house" on
deck ; and, at the time the accident occurred, which proved fatal to
his life, it was blowing a complete hurricane in the Atlantic. A
heavy sea struck " the house," carried away the larboard side of the
cabin skylights, and filled the cabin with water. Hearing the de-
ceased crying out for help, the steward, who was in the cabin, ran up,
and found him sitting on the deck. He was seriously injured. His
right leg was fractured, and subsequently he threw up a large quan-
tity of blood. He died the following night ; but the body vinadthekaept.
until the vessel reached Liverpool, when it was conveyed to eq d_
' house. The jury rota iced a verdict to the effect that the deceased
died of the injuries received.—Liretivol Albion.
