WALLACHIA.

At Blasendorf great excesses have taken place
among the Wallachians, or, as they now call them-
selves, the Romani.

An insurrectionary meeting was held, at which
they insisted that all political prisoners should be
liberated, that the conscription should be suspended,
and that the present meeting should be declared legal.
Expresses were sent off by the Chapter for a supply
of the military, and Baron VAT himself came to
Blasendorf and addressed the mob in Hungarian. He
said that he had full powers to redeem the political
prisoners, that the conscription had already virtually
ceased, but that as for the legality of this popular
meeting he must obtain higher authority before
he could declare it legal. The meeting,
which consisted of from 8,000 to 10,000 men,
appeared satisfied, and were about to disperse, when
news was brought that the authorities not only
refused to obey the Commander-in-Chief, Baron
VAT, or to release the prisoners, but were re-
solved to shoot MIKEs, one of the State prisoners,
at once. The commandant of the fortress immediately
interfered, and MULES was instantly carried to the
eselder territory. This caused fresh commotions,
and the greatest apprehensions are entertained for the
peace of the country. _ .

RUSSIA.

ST. PETERSBURGU, SEPT. 26.—The following
Imperial letter has been addressed to the Grand Duke
MICHAEL, as chief of the military colleges :
"Your Imperial Highness—The extraordinary num-
ber of the students from the military colleges, who joined
the ranks of officers, by which the army was furnished
with able leaders at a time of unexpected need, led to
the apprehension that the loss of the students who had
joined the camp, and who had been especially accus-
tomed to front service, would be greatly felt in the
front department of these institutions. It was there-
fur the more satisfactory to me to observe the ad-
mirable order and military bearing of this de-
partment of the military institution during the
whole of their stay at Peterhof. A daily witness of
the untiring exertions and enlightened policy by
which your pupils were preserved from the cholera
while it was raging in the capital and its environs,
I was deeply moved, and recognised the evident
blessing of God on your Imperial Highness's exer-
tions.

" In the whole establishment only one pupil was
seized with the cholera, and he recovered, and I was
very much gratified to observe that not only the
chiefs under your immediate orders but all the
(tEcers without exception, animated by the noble
example of your Imperial Highness, zealously dis •
chargvd their sacred duties of teachers and in-
structors.
" The thankful prayers of the parents whose sons
lwere preserved to them by your exertions, are your
high rewards. I rejoice in having this opportunity
of expressing to your Imperial Highness my hearty
thanks and grateful acknowledgments.
" Krassnoze Szelo, August 27, 1848.
