POLAND.

We have the Allgemeine Zeitung of the 15th and 16th
inst. this morning; in which we find the following passages
confirmatory of the rapid advance of the Russians into Po-
land, and the equally rapid retreat of the Poles, which we
announced for several days. Warsaw, it is affirmed, would
soon be declared in a state of siege ; and the Polish patriots
seem not to have a friend in the world to render them the
slightest aid :

WARSAW, FES. 7.
The day before yesterday the Russians passed the frontiers at five
places, Uscilug, Brsesc, Oranoe, Tykocin, and Angusto. Hitherto
there are only cossacks, who mask the movements of the army r only at
Mello', some dragoons have entered belonging to the corps of General
Geismar; his design seems to be to invest Zama., and to advance into
the plain country beyond the Vistula. The Russian main army advances
in the line from Louisa and Brsesc. Up to this time there lino account
of any fighting, for there were no troops on any part of the frontier.
The first outpost. of our army are three leagues from Sledlce, towards
Bruise, and in the line towards lionise ; they are at Ostrolnika.
Mr. Schmidt, the Prussian Consul, asked for passports to leave the
city, as soon as he learnt that the Russians had entered the kingdom.
M. Barsykowskl„ a member of the National Government, and Count
Gustavus Malachowski, one of the Ministers, go to the army, in order
to regulate, without dela , all unjust civil matters. The peasantry fiy
from the frontiers; the Couacb take from them all their cattle and
provisions. More dread is felt here of the diseases which are said to pre.
veil in the Russian army, than of the Russians themselves. They are de.
scribed as inflammatory fevers, which carry off great numbers of men. The
hospitals at Grodno, Bialystock, and Luck, are said to be crowded. On
the 31st Jan. many wounded Russians were brought to °redo°. It
was reported, on what authority I know not, that two regiments bad
quarrelled, and fired on each other. The cause is said to have been that
It was intended to remove some officers who were supposed to entertain
liberal Ideas, that the soldiers. resisted this measure, and Count Diebitsch

ordered soother regiment totting them to obedience. A great battle is
expected by the 12th bat. at farthest. Warsaw will soon be declared
in a state of siege ; the cannon are already placed on the
ramparts. It was not believed that Count Diaries& would
ester now, because if the first attack does not succeed he in-
curs great danger. The thaw sets in—the ice will disappear--the
rivers will overflow, and the low ground in which he acts will become a
complete morass. His army advancing against us amounts to about
160,000 men. At present we have to oppose him only 87.000 men in
the field, and the patriotism of our people. The seventeen new regi-
ments of infantry are not yet organized. Tne organisation of the cavalry
is more advanced, and it will be complete, and ready to take the field,
in a fottnight.

ITALY.

The subjoined communication from Bologna, dated the
Bth Feb. affords a few more particulars to those details which
we have, from time to time, placed before the public, on the
subject of the patriotic movements in Italy. The letter we
now present will be read with interest :

IRON ITALIAN SWITSIALAND, Fa'. 11.—We have before us a
letter, dated Bologna, Feb. 8, which gives the following details of sc.
rious disturbances in that city :
" For some weeks a fermentation in peoples' minds ha 4 been ob. '
served, which was kept up by proclamations secretly distributed by'
meetings in the coffee houses, &c. The absence of the Archbishop,
who was at the Conclave in Rome, and the smallness of the garrison— ,
not more than 700 infantry, and 80 cavalry, in a city with 70,000 in.:
habitants, seemed to encourage the agitators.
" On the 4th, a report was spread that Modena was in a state of
complete insurrection, and that the citizens were fighting with
the soldiers. When the mail, which arrived towards the evening,
confirmed this report the conspiracy broke out here. A great number
of young men assembled in the coffee.housee. Several speakers ad.
dressed them, and especially exhorted them not to stain their arm with
useless murders. The young men took an oath to this effixt, and en.
gaged to risk every thing for the freedom of Italy. The Pro-legate
hastily assembled the principal nobility, and the most eminent citizens
to deliberate with them on the danger that threatened. While lie
was deliberating with them, about midnight, the young men advanced
in arms towards the palace. The terrified Pro-legate had already givcn
orders to the little garrison to remain pa.sive, from a fear that
military aid would be of no avail as the conspiracy was so
widely extended. The young men who were prepared for a serious
resistance, did not even Ind a sentinel on duty at the Palace. They
hereupon required the Pro.legate to sign a paper, by which he resigned
the administration to a Provisional Government. lie at first refused,
but the increasing tumult without doors and threat to throw him ot.t
of the window If he persisted in his refusal, soon obliged him to yield ,
to the demands of the insurgents. By the document all the troops
of the legation were placed under the Provisional Government.
On, the following day, (February 5), the pro-legate, and the dis-
missed Colonel of the troop of the line, set out with an
escort to Florence. In all these transactions, not a drop
of blood was spilt. On the sth, early in the morning, the courier ar.
rived from Rome, with the news of the election of the Pope : be was
quite astonished to find the city illuminated, and the citizens rejoicing
in the streets, till it was explained to him what all this meant. lie bad
the more reason to be surprised, as the Archbishop had affirmed at
Rome, that he would be answerable for his flock." It is added,
in a postscript--" We have jest learned that Ferrara, and the
Marsh of Ancona, had followed the example of logna. The Duke
of 3lodena has left his Duchy. It Is said that an insurrection is ex-
pected to take place to-morrow in Parma and Piacenza."
