T. c lit DAYS LATE IL F. II O M

BY the arrival at an early hour this
morning, Of the packet ship Columbia,
Capt. DELANo, from Portsmouth on the
lst. August; the Editors of the Courier
and Enquirer, have received their files Of
London Papers and Shipping Lists to the
3lst Of August inclusive.
The news by this arrival is ofthe high
est Importance, as bringing information
that Prussia has thrown off the hypocrit-
cal cloak which she has so long worn,
and openly declared for Russia agains,
the Poles. The neutrality of one of the
great Allied Powers, being thus destroy
cd, what is there to prevent the immcdi-
ate Interference of England and France
This is the question that agitates London
and Paris, and which we trust, will be
answered by these powers taking in con-
cert the necessary steps to preserve Po-
land from the hungry vultures that again
seek to annihilate her. The London
Courier of the afternoon ofthe 9th says
"We have this moment received from an
official source the Declaration Of Prussia
relative to Poland The Prussian Gov
ernment has just declared that it is not
neutral in Polish affairs; that it considers
it has right to aid Russia in every was
in facilitating the passage of provisions
and munitions of war to the Russian ar
my in Poland--and to treat the Poles as
revoltcd subjects; in fine, that the pres
ent state Of Prussia is inaci,rity but not
neutrality. This declaration will, no
doubt, change the policy Of our Cabinet,
for, the system of non-intervention not
being adhered to by other powers, we
are not bound to keep it; besides, inactiu-
iy is a voluntary situation, which makes
the engagements, and which is against
the system of non-intcrvention; for allow
Prussia to say to-day it will adhere to
neutraty-to-morrow it may enter Po-
and with its armies, without other Pow
ers having word to say.
France cannot permit this new politi-
cal situation, which in fact, is nothing
else than direct Intervention. Our Cab
met, we trust, will on this occasion sup
port those liberal principles abroad which
we are strenuousl y advocating at home. "
On the situation of Poland We have
merely to remark is as bad as it well
can be. A small band of gallant spirits
every where evince their determination
to perish sooner than yield to their op-
prossors-they achieve victory after VIC
tory, but alas, each battle diminishes
their number, & renders their fate more
certain, unless England and France in
teriere to save her. The murder Of Gen.
GIELGUD in the Prussian territory, calls
loudly for vengeance.
The cholera has broken out in Berlin
and driven the King and his family from
that city; und the Courier Francois states,
that letters from Italy announce positive
ly that the cholera morbus has manifest
ed itselfin Fiume and at Ancona.
In England the Reform Bill progress
ses slowly in the House Of Commons, s.
so certain is its fate in that House, that
but little interest is felt in the question.

POLAND.
Prussia has at length wholly cast
aside the flimsy mask which she has hith-
erto worn with respect TO Poland. A
correspondent, upon whose authority we
can rely, last night communicated to us
the following statcment:-"Thc Prus-
sian Government at length nnblushingly
avows the foul partizanship to Russia
which II has hitherto scarcely taken pains
