GENERAL DWERNICIII IN VOLRYNIA.

General Dwernicki, whom the German journals have so often an-
nounced as lost, who, with Ids whole corps, cm surrounded by the
Russian Generals Dc Witt, Kreutz, and ltudiger, though neither of
them dared to attack him, and he whom the Field Marshal menaced to
destroy in each of his reports, has entered Volhynia, after Laving passed
the Bug, near Krylow, on the night of the 10th and 11th current.
The office•, Kacskowski, who brought us this news, left him on
the 16th at Boredom, at the moment when his columns took the direc-
tion of Dubne and Krremieniec. Our general met at Chorachow, re-
cruits from Volhynia, which the Russians were leading In chains. He
asked what ryas the crime for which they were enchained. They re.
plied that they had committed no crime, but that they were leading
them in this way in order to join the army. Ask these brave
Fellows, rejoined General Dwernicki, pointing to our nun, and
learn from them If a single one of than has been treated in so cruel a
manner ; they will reply, that all of them have battened, freely and fuU
of ardour, to the defence of our common country ; and on the order of
the General, our Lancers and our Chasseun broke the chains, which
afforded an affecting spectacle. Embrace each other, said then the
General to theta; you are all brothers. Tears flowed, cries of joy were
heard, and the Volhynians mingled with our troops. The enthusiasm
is general; contributions flow in ; and the inhabitants arrive from
all Pities with arms in their hands.
The entry of General Dwcrnlcki Into Volhynia promises us great
advantages : it wall be the signal of insurrection for all the Russo-Polish
provinces ; and it will insure us besklesgreat supplies of provisions. Vol-
hynia was the magazine for the army of the Field-Marshal, who already
obtained from it a considerable transport of corn. Nothing resisted the
entrance of our General : he is said now to be at Dubno, and that on his
road he routed some detachments of the enemy. Every body is
arming; already several squadrons are ready to march. You can form
no idea of the enthusiasm of the inhabitants, who at every step arrive to
crowd the ranks of our brave men. For the last half canary our bre-
thren of Samogitia, of Volhynia, of Podolia, and of the Ukraine, have
groaned under the weight of servitude, and of • hostile occupation.
Nineteen long years have passed since the Inhabitants beyond the Ilug
have seen for once the Polish lance Dwernicki showed them again our
victorious phalanxes bearing the standard of liberty.

SICOND IMPORT PlOlll

Scarcely bad Dwernicki passed the Bug when his int steps on
that Polish soil were marked with success. On the 11th inst five pla-
toons of the second regiment of Lancers, and of the fourth bons Chas-

stun, composing a part of his corps, encountered, near Poryck, the
whole regiment of dragoons of Chargopoloki, which enjoys a high rc.
putation in the Russian army. Our detachment ruabed upon this regi.
anent, put it to route, took five officers (among whom is Prince Oboltn.
ski), 150 dragoons,.as many houses, and more than 200 carbines
sod ether weapons. The enemy's regiment lost also a great number ci
men in killed and worried ; finally, the remains of this celebrated re.
&nest have been dispersed in the woods, and are coodnuaily falling
into our bands. The attack was so unexpected, and at the same time
so impetuous, that we bad only one man wounded, whose came is
Captain Zajewski. General Dwemieki has already taken possession of
the baggage and transports of provisions destined for the great army.
