MAR::'.NWERDER, lit DART

Yesterday was thl happy day on which the boor
of cur release arrived, and we were freed from suffer-
ings borne for years. Even on the preceding evening
we had still a great nti:ober of French officers, the
Viceroy of Itl4, the Duke of Bellono, the General
of Brigade, Count Von Stochberg, and other petions
of rank, in this town ; six hundred Polish troops en-
tered it ;rum Gitrusee, and we lived in fear and dread,
as the assurances of the French, and many prepara-
tions i;ave us cause to imagine, that an obstinate re-
sistance would be. made to the approaching RuSiian
troops.

j ll'he bridge-head was
.fortified with nine cannon
and 500 men. Early in the morning, the alarm was:
brat ; about six o'clock we heard a firing from Ma-
reise„in the vicinity of the town, and soon after two
Cossacks entered the town at full gallop, one of whom
was shot, and the other badly wounded by the French
soldiers who were already alarmed, oppcsite to the
Viceroy's quarters. The Viceroy, in the greatest
confusion, threw himself on horseback with a pistol
in his hand, and rode off as hard as possible. li' was
followed in indescribable confusion by all the foreign
military, several of whom were overtaken by the ‘.t)
Cossacks who entered immediately afterwards. The
Viceroy of Italy, the Duke of Belitmo, and other 'el
ficers of high rank, owed their safety to their, horses'
speed. The garrison at the Bri4e-head, on the first
sham,.brew their artillery into the Viiittla, an. athen•
led over the ice. A troop of Baden fratisiliSb to the

'umber of 40 melt; *hit iv!** ptestaat ol‘the Visalia;
endeavoured alone make some resistance, but,
lifter a short Opposition, were made prisoners, Wing
lost four men killed and wounded.
The Cossacks met the inhabitants in the most
friendly manner, shaking theft' by the hand, and were
received and welcomed With joy. About 10 o'clock,
General Von -Tschernychew, who commands the
vanguard, arrived here, and immediately set off to-
wards Wenliselbing, in pursuit of the enemy. Some
hundred Cossacks were left behind in garrison, who
kept a most admirable discipline. So quiet a night
as that, following on this eventful day, we had not
enjoyed for a long time ; the utmost millness reigned
in the streets, every one again breathed freely, and
could speak his mind openly, without fear of being
informed against by watchful spies. The brightest
hopes now appear to cheer the lovers of their country
with its liberation from foreign influence, and every
braie Prussian cries, as Prussians and Russians yes-
terday did unanimously in our streets, ge Long live else
Emperor Alexander, Long live Frederick William 1°

GUlLDHALL.—Yesterday a youth of 13 was brought
before Alderman COOMBE, accused of having roithed
a journeyman mechanic, of the name of Miller, of his
silver watch and £7. 14s. on Monday last. The tie.
predator lodged with the woman of the house. who
had brought him up from an infant, when he was
abandoned by his mother, and had bestowed an edu-
cation on him. He had conducted himself with pro-
priety, but on the morning of Monday he was heard
knocking in Miller's room for a considerable time,
and afterwards he absconded. His foster-parent was
disconsolate for his loss, and when Miller came home

on the evening of the day specified, he informed her
that the boy had robbed his apartments ; a diligent
inquiry was then set afoot, and he was taken by a wa-
terman at Blackwall, wholly pennyless, with Miller's'
watch in his possession. He confessed the robbery,
and said he had purchased clothes with the money pi
had resolved to enter on board the Beet at Sheerness.
Remanded till tomorrow, when the waterman will
be produced who found the watch in ,the boy's pos-
session.
