witch ; secondly, to oblige the Russian cavalry to lay down their arms ;
third, to seize the arms and deliver them to the populace ; fourth, to
disarm the Russian regiments of the Guard of Lithuanian VolbyniA.
The object of all these criminal acts was to overthrow the paternal sys.
tem of Government given to Poland by the Emperor Alexander, and
confirmed by the Emperor Nicholas, in order to establish another Govern-
ment, the fruit of chimerical illusions, and of which the conspirators thew.
selves ware to fill the principal offices. The means of executing this

frightful plot wee perfectly conformable to the odious object, and
the perversity of the conspirators. Conflagration was the commence.
went of an act which was to commence in murder and pillage.
The signal of revolt was given on 29th Nov. at six o'clock in the
evening, by setting fire to a brewhouse, not far from the barrack{ of
the Russian cavalry. At the same instant detachments of Polish triops
seduced by the conspirators, left their barracks to proceed to the pointi
previously.asstgoed them, while a horde of the most determined vii.
lain hastened to the Palace of Belvidere, where his Imperial Highness
the Grand Duke then was : when at the moment these villains went t:
the Belvidere, Wysoki, accompanied by Lieut. Schlegel, and Lieut.
Joseph Dobrowolski, entered the school of the ensigns. MI the pupils
were then assembled in the Hall taking a lesson in tactics._
Wysoki, entering like a madman, adjured the young men to
hasten to the succour of their countrymen, whom the Russians
were massacreing without pity. Another conspirator, who
had remained at the outer gate, cried to arms, and these young men,
partly from pity, partly inflamed by the language of Wysoki, seized
their muskets, and placed themselves under his command.
T e total number of ensigns amounted to above 160; they first fill
on the Regiment of Hulans of the guards of the Grand Duke, whose
barrack they attacked, and caused some disorder, but were soon rc.
pulsed ; proceeding to the city after having escaped in the barracks of
Randzievil from the cuirassier regiment of the guard of Podolia, they
succeeded in entering Warsaw, where the ,conspirators bad already bad
time w raise the populace. The major part of the 4th Regiment of
infantry was the first to tread under foot the duties imposed
on it by honour and its oaths, assisted by the populace, it took posses.
colon of the arsenal ; the rebels were joined by thebavalion of Sappers,
which had massacred some of its officers who remained faithful to their
duty, as well as by a part of the Polish regiment of grenadiers of the
guard, and by all the Polish horse-artillery of the Guard ; then began
excesses, of which, according to the Polish Gazettes themselves, neither
Paris nor Brussels had afforded an example. The furious populace
joined to the soldiers, after .indulging in drunkenness and pillage
barbarously massacred the innocent victims, who were given up to
them by the / private vengeance of the conspirators. Blood flow.
ed in torrents in the streets of Warsaw, where the carnage
was continued during the whole night. Guarded by young offi.
an, the ;greater part of the soldiers of the Polish regiments joined the
rebels. It is affirmed that not a single person of any distinction took
part in the rebellion ; that not a single General, Colonel, or even Cap-
tain, was seen in the ranks of the rebels, and that the companies were
commanded by young Lieutenants and Sub-Lieutenants. In their
efforts to keep their inferiors to their duty, the officers of the Polish
troops were killed by the rebels, others were taken prisoners, or driven
away by the revolted soldiers.
During these tumults, the following officers were killed :—Of the
Polish troops, Gen. Count Hsucke, Count Potocki, Tram Bicki, Ser.
ventkowski, Blume; and Nowicki ; Col. Mieclawski and the Russian
Col. Jacque. A great number of Russian officers, who had not time to join
their troops were kept as prisoners by the rebels. Providence saved
the Grand Duke : the villains also had penetrated into the inner
apartments of his Imperial Highness; wounded a great numbs of
his servants, massacred Lieut.-Gen. Gender, and gave to the Vice-
President of the Police, Lubowicki, thirteen bayonet wounds. In
the midst of these horrors, the Grand Duke found means to escape
the ear& of the assassins, who, not having been able to discover
liar seek light. His Impetial Highness then gave orders to the
Russian troops, as well as the Polish regiment of light horse of the
surd, and the greater part of that of the Polish grenadiers of the
gaud, who had remained faithful, to go out of the city and repel
very attack, but abstaining from every offensive demonstration, in order
so prove by facts the falsehood of the reports spread by the conspirators
and the rebels that the Russians were massacreing the inhabitants of
the city.
The rebels In superior numbers several times attacked the Russian
and the faithfur:Polish troops, but were always repulsed and put to
flight. The regiment of Guards of Volhynia being stopped in its march
by the 4th Regiment of Infantry, intrepidly repulsed all its masks,
and arrived at the rendesvous which bad been assigned it, after
having had about 30 men killed or wounded.
The report here commends the conduct of Lieut. Gorecki, who re-
mained with the Grand Duke, with only six men, end has received hem
the Emperor the order of St. Wladimir, of the fourth class. On the
next day, 30th November, the camp and entrees of all kinds bad not
ceased, the furious populace bad not yet had enough of bleed and pil-
lage. The,dty was in the Fastest danger, all the peaceable inhabitants
plunged in mortal apprehensions, expected every mearent inevitable
