POLISH INSURRECTION.

BERLIN, Dzc. 11.

Our State Gazette of this day contains no farther intelli-
gence from Wazeaw, but gives under the date of the 6th an
art;cle from Cracow, which presents a more consistent and,
apparently, from the details, a more correct narrative of the
events which have taken place. From this account is also
to bo gathered the important fact, that the Grand Duke
Constantine was still detained on the south-west bank of the
Vistula, being, by the drifting of the ice, prevented from
making good his retreat to Russia, and that he was out
even free of the danger of being made a prisoner.--A ntsterdum
Courant.

CRACOW, Dzc. O.

The year 1830, which commenced so promisingly for Europe in the
midst of profound peace, has, in its progress been marked throughout
this quarter of the globe by convulsions, the consequences of which
have been more severely felt, in proportion as they have occurred un.
expectedly in most countries, which have, as it were been taken by sur-
prise. After the Russian army had, in the preceding year, conquered
a peace, as brilliantly won as generously concluded,—after the Sove-
reign of Russia had, in the same year, been saluted by his Polish king.
dom with a joy equally general and sincere,--no one could have ima-
gined it possible that the internal peace, and evidently growing pros-
perity, of that kingdom, would have been disturbed in so dreadful a
manner, and that the mysterious transactions which brought about a
new order of things in a state in the south-west of Europe, could have
exercised so injurious an influence on the apparently well-assured tran-
quillity of remote northern regions. The news of the events of the last
days of November have indeed been to all Poland like a clap of thunder
from a serene sky. So unlooked for were these events, that even here
we do not yet know how to explain their origin, history, and eon.
neaten ; and it is only from details related orally, or collected from
statements in the Warsaw papers, that we are enabled to give a some.
what connected view of the whole. At all events, this may be relied on
as certain, that the breaking out of this revolution was not the result of
any extended conspiracy over the whole kingdom. It may rather be
regarded as the sole work of part of the pupils of the academy, and of
the sub-officers' school, and, according to repeated assurances, the move.
ment would have been eruahed in the bud, if imposing means had been
instantly employed.
in the commencement of the preceding month, some traces of this
conspiracy were discovered, but the affair was considered too trifling to
render the adoption of very serious measures necessary. Several sus-
pected persons, who were arrested, belay denied the criminal designs
which were, not without reason, attributed to them. As, however,
their co-conspirators must have feared that they would, in the course
of a few days, perhaps, be discovered, it Is probable that they were on
this account induced to proceed to the execution of their plan sooner
than they originally intended.
On the 29th of November, about six in the evening, sixteen students
of the academy, headed by two pupils of the sub-officers' school, had
the hardihood to penetrate into the Belvedere Palace, one half entering
by the front, the other by the rear of the building. They cut down
the sentinels who opposed them, and would have made the Grand Duke
prisoner, if a faithful servant of his Imperial Highness had not for.
tunately dragged him into a secret chamber. Before the rioters reached
this apartment, his Imperial Highness succeeded in securing himself
against their machinations, and repaired to the Russian barracks,
where the few Russian regiments then quartered there rallied faithfully
round their Prince.

At the same time that this attack was made on the Palace, the re-
maining sub-officers in the adjoining military school, two hundred in
number, turned out, hastened into the town, gave the alarm, and
drew along with them all the people they met. As the crowd increased,
the excesses extended ; but horrors unparalleled in any similar scene
in Paris or Brussels distinguished the revolution of Warsaw.
The populace, in every respect intoxicated, wreaked their vengeance,
in the most inhuman manner, on the unfortunate:nten whom they re-
garded as their oppressors, and whom they unsparingly selected as just
sacriffees to their wrath. A few Russian officers, scattered about the
town, had the good fortune to escape being shot, and to be made pri-
soners by mercifully disposed adversaries. The insurgents, with the
aid of two ►attalions of the 4th regiment of infantry, succeeded in
storming the arsenal and to supply mob, in whose hands every
weapon was a dreadful instrument of death, with seines, pistols, and
muskets. The sanguinary evening was now followed by a night of
horror. Pules, who were mistaken for Russians, were killed by their
fellow-citizens. The Polish regiment of Yager Guards, and part of
the Infantry Regiment of Guards, which did not immediately make
common cause with the rebels, were dealt with u hostilely as the three
Russian regiments, and, yielding to superior force, were all obliged to
evacuate the town.

Next day, with the view of repressing, in some measure, the extraor-
dinary excesses, a self-styled Provisional Government was formed.
This object, however, was not attained. On the 30th of November the
city was still exposed to all the atrocities which uncontrolled and armed
mobs chose to commit. At last, when the rich Waywndes found that
neither the life nor the property of soy one of them was secure, the
most influential among them hastened to give their support to the Pro.
visional Government, and thus was constituted, on the let of December,
the new Council of Administration, by whose seders some of the prim.
cipal ringleaders have been arrested sad punished. General Chlopicki,
at this time not in active service, bat litho distinguished himself its the
Spanish campaigns, and who is highly respected by the old Polish
warriors, consented, after repeated solicitations, sod considerable delay,
to take the command of the mar. He made. however, this express
condition, that he should only act in the name of the Emperor and
King. To the 'lgneous measures of this General end the mergedc
anduct of the National Guard, which was speedily feinted, the peace-
fully disposed inhabitants are indebted foe some restoration of tran-
quillity in a city, from which they could not escape, as its gates
were shut.

Detached parties of disorderly persons, who were loving about on
the snood day, were dispersed ; and the sopper battalion, which had
murdered two of their ofikers, was disarmed. Notwithstanding these
di/Borden, the Royal Castle and PAtee which the Grand Dike occupied
in the city suffered no injury; but the beam woes taken from the
sables, and it is alkyd that a Russian military chest of considenble

lireawhile the /evolutionary spirit is Warsaw le ecaseendy Oak%

la firmer hold. Many clubs have been established, and at their meet.
ings violent speeches have been made oedema die dominion of Russia
and the Provisional Government, which had already sent a dtputation
to the Grand Duke Cesarowitsch, and was on the point of concluding a
mutual understanding with him, was impeded in its operations by the
clubs. Members of these clubs found their way into the Assembly of
the Council of Administration, and urged, that with the help of the
regiments of infantry which had come from the provinces to Warsaw,
the Grand Duke Cesarowitsch and the Polish and Russian regiments
in his train should be pursued, and, if possible, captuted. General
Chlopicki, in the highest degree indignant at the furious demands of
the clubs, delivered to the assembled council a very angry speech, can-
ing to mind the conditions on which he had accepted the supreme com-
mand; he betrayed so much violence on this occasion that he was as-
sailed by blows, and it was found necessary to carry him out of the
assembly. This circumstance excited general regret, and also feelings
of displeasure against die clubs, whose brawlers are indebted to such
scenes for a portion of their popularity.
His Imperial Highness the Grand Duke Cesarowitsch, having re-
ceived positive information that the Polish troops who accompanitd him
were exposed to great danger, found it advisable to dismiss them, that
is to say,—the Yager horse guards and the foot guards. They returned
to Warsaw under the command of Counts Krasinski and Kurnittosski ;
and these guards, having taken the oath to the Provisional Gov, rnment,
joined the rest of the troops ; but the two commanders solicited their
dismissal, which was granted.
According to the latest accounts, his Imperial Highness the Grand
Duke Casarowitsch and his little corps hut been unable to cross the
Vistula, in consequence of the ice having begun to drift. However,
he has probably found a favourable point for crossing, which is the
more to be hoped for, as she corps, which consists only of three re.
giments of cavalry and a few infantry, was already short of pruvi.
stout and forage, and was harassed by parties of armed peasantry and
scattered partisans.
General Chlopickl, who is tolerably recovered from his indisposition'
and is appointed civil and unitary Dictator, is said to be determined to
ensure to the Grand Duke his ash passage across ihe Vistula, anti re-
turn to the Russian dominions. Should this be really the fact, all hope
of the restoration of peace is nor yet lost ; for, whatever may have been
the excitement of public feeling, and the extravagance of ideas, it is cer.
lain that the thought of a republic has met with no encouragement.—
All accounts seem to concur in stating that by a union of the Polish
provinces now incorporated with Russia to the present kingdom of Po.
land, and a rigid enforcement of the existing constitution, the wishes of
all reasonable people would ,centre in the person of the present ruler.
Meanwhile the Provisional Government finds itself compelled to muster
all its means of defence ; and it is stated that the arsenal contains anus
for 100,000 men. The clubbists have already found it necessary to
send emissaries to those parts of the country in which the revolution has
not yet appeared. Russel, who is well known as a spirited patriot, is
gone on a mission of this kind to Podlachia. In Warsaw, many per.
sons who are regarded as Russian spies, or members of the secret po.
lice, are daily arrested, and though to outward appearance tranquillity
is restored, yet the chief portion of the Inhabitants of that city look for
ward with great anxiety to the future. Heaven grant that the anaenin.
ling of the Congress which is fixed for the 18th of this month may fulfil
the hope which the loyalty of that body seems to justify
