complaints are heard respecting the var.a Elating policy
of the Prussian Cabinet with respect ; to Posen, and
also with reference to the excesses co, rimitted by the
Germans. There is some talk of rais; g a Polish loan
in London.

It is now fully ascertained that th s majority of the
Polish army at Schrofla have laid 3c)wn their arms.

conspiracy having been discovere,l in the Russian
garrison at Warsaw has been confir mi ed. A number

LOMBARDY-

The report of the capture of Pesiz,b iera by the troops
Of CHARLES ALBERT turns out to have been un-
founded. CHARLES ALBERT made a brisk attack
upon the fortress, and was, it would appear from his
own account, compelled to retreat by the Austrians.
The following is the official report by CHARLES
ALBERT of his unsuccessful attack on Peschiera

" Head- quarters, at Pozzulongo.
" His Majesty, as General and €Thief of his army
wishing to drive the Austrians com?le tely from the right
bank of the Mincio, ordered to-day an attack on Pes-
chiera.

" The report that this garrison wits composed partly
of Italians, and that the remainder a 'as completely de-
moralized, induced him to attemptr, an attack with
the field artillery only, sustained by the brigade of
General Bic

"After having got together eight .nbuviers, six pieces
of battering cannon, and six pieces of field artillery, our
brave artillery commenced with four batteries, covered
with the trenches constructed the .evening before, to
attack the advanced works of the enemy on the right
bank of the Mincio. _ _ _

" The different companies of volunteers attacked these
works in flank, as well as those place d on the left bank
of the river. The angles dismantled, announced that our
infantry could advance to the attack of the fortifications,
and his Majesty appeared disposed to second the order
of our troops, but, foreseeing that, even in case of suc-
cess, these works, commanded by the enemy's artillery
on the permanent fortifications of the citadel of Pes-
chiera, would have cost too much of our soldiers' blood,
which would have been shed without a definite result,
his Majesty resolved to renounce this attack; and after
having, for form sake, summoned the place to surrender,
he ordered to resume his first position to consult on
more important affairs.
" His Majesty has been extremely satisfied with the
courage and skill of his artillery, the enthusiasm of his
volunteers, and the order of his troops.
" His Majesty, always foremost in danger, remained
several hours exposed to the fire of the enemy, with his
sons and a n•merous staff."
The Opinione of Turin, of the 14th, gives further
particulars of the capture of the powder magazines
of Peschiera. The Milanese did not succeed in car-
rying off the gunpowder, for; a large body of troops
being sent from the fortress, they had only time to
throw a part into the water and to blow up the rest.
They had to retire afterwards, and barricaded them-
selves in Castelnuovo, which they defended for
a long time. They then cut their way through
the enemy, regained the steamer, passed the
night at Assisa, and returned to Desenzano the
next day.
Official information from Venice, of the 14th, con-
firms a report that a body of volunteers, attacked by
a more numerous force of Austrians, had been
obliged to retreat to Vicenza, where a large body of
crusaders had arrived. The town is barricaded and
well defended, as a precaution against attack. Ad-
vices from Udine, of the Bth, announce that the
Austrians who were on the Isonzo, and occupying the
line of Goritz, had been ordered to march imme-
diately upon Trieste, which was menaced by the
troops stationed in Istria and Dalmatia, who had all
declared in favour of the Italians.

The Patria, of Florence, of the 13th, says—" The
Austrians retired within the line of the Mincio have
regained courage, and fight with fury. It is of no
use to deceive ourselves, the war will be long and
bloody. It is war to the death—a war of Spaniards
against the Moors, of Greeks against Turks.
The Patria contains a letter from Ferrara, dated
the 11th, which says the affair under Mantua was
favourable to the Piedmontese, and that the Austrians
lost 8,000 killed, wounded, and prisoners.
Letters from Rome, of the 11th, say that M. COR-
DELL! had left Rome for the head-quarters of the
combined army with a view of establishing more
strongly the league between the Italian Sovereigns.
