PROCLAMATION

The war which has broken out between
France and Austria could not be locked up
on by Russia with an indifferens eye.
The last news that has been received IN
the grand duchy, from the army of prince
Poniaeowski, informs us that he has made
himself master of Brody, the last city OF
Gallacia near the frontier, and that be found
there considerable magazines andproyisions
in abundance.
Livery care and effort have been employ.
ed on our part to stife the Are before 1t had
entirely burst out into fame. twas made
known, in the Grst instance to the court OF
Austria, that by virtue OF the most solemn
treaties and engagements which suhsisted
between the two emperors OF Russia and OF
the French, Russia would act conformity
with France.
Austria wished not to regard the repre-
sensations, which ought to have had great
sEsi prstext Of necessary defence, hef war
like preparations, until the time when by
aggressive proceedings she discovered tbs
proud designs of her ambition and lighted
the torch Of war.
Russia, in consequence could not dispense
with taking in that war a part which was
founded On solemn treaties. On the As!
intelligence reaching her, she broke as un-
der those ties which had uoited her to Aus
tria, and ordered her army to approachythe
frontiers of Callicia.
On entering this country to act agains
Austria, and 10 repel by force those troops
she has brought into the field, the eommao.
der in chief OF the army has the positive Or
ders of his majesty to declare to The peacea-
biz inhabitants Of Gallicia, aad to assure
them IN the most solemn manner, that Rus
STA entertains no enmity against any of them;
and that the army in It's movements, in
whatever psrti it may be, will respect the
personal security of all, assure property, and
leave undisturhed the peace of the interior
and the general tranquility.

Affairs Of Pollard.

The enemy continues his retreat, with
the same precipitation. Onthe 2eth May,
| twelve Polish spear-men on accommodating
| duty, met at Skrnewice, ore hundred and
zen Austrian dragons who were retreating
towards Rava they routed them, and made
eleven prisoners. On the 3Oh, in the morn
ing, gen.Koslnski, commanding the advance
Cd guard, after having entered Lowiez,p pro-
ceeded as Tar as Sechaczew, where he met
no more of them, who it appears are retreat
ing TO Pol:ca. Some reports, however, seem
to indicate that the main of the Austrian
troops are bending tn lr march towards Up
per Silesia. They commit excuses every
where, they carry away provisions, cattle
and horses. The new lrves Of ali the de-
partms hts tak- place with the greatest rspi-
dlty anti success.
The archduke Ferdinand in contemp, Of
the convention made with prince Poniasovs-
ky, and the engagement he had taken not to
levy any contribution, has enacted one of
10000 forms on the city Of Warsaw. He
has moreover required that the territorial
impos,ions and the residue of forced loan
established in 1903, and whose payments
fall due only in 1910, should be delivered up
to him. These measures foretold the eva
cuation of Warsaw, which followed soon af-
ter.
Prince Poniatowski writes to the prince
of Neufchatel, from head quarters at Irseni,
25th May, thar on the oath the general of
brigade Rosmecki, rendered himself master
Of Jaroslaw where he has made one colonel,
rs officers and 900 men prisoners Of war;
The occupation of that town intrrcepts en-
tirely the communication between Cracow
and Leopold, and insures to the army the
possession of three fourths of Gallicia. The
advanced posts were within one days march /
of Cracow.
The latest news received in the grand !
dachy, from the army of Prince Poniatow-
ski, mention his having entered Brodi, the
last town of Gallivia, near tie frontiers,
and that he has found there considerable I
magazines and great abundance Of pro-
visions.
