EIGHT DAYS LATER FROM EuROpE

EIGHT DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE.
The packet ships Pacific, Captain Croker, ant
Hannibal, Captain Hebard have arrived at Ne;
fotk, the former from Liverpool and the latte
from london, bringing London papers to tn,
evening Of The 3lst August and liverpool paper.
to the "a Of September, inclusive. The Hon
John Enndolph, our fatc Minister 10 Russia
arrived passenger IN The Hannibal.
The most Important intelligence brought by these
arrivals relates to the OF Polacd, which i.
represented as being condition almost hopeless
the population Of Warsaw in u state OF open re-
beilion against the lyoverpmcnt, tho Governor dis
placed, kr2ynecki dismissed, the capital in state
OF anarchy and without resources AND shc Russian
army approaching. Tho articles which contain
these accounts from the Prussian State Gazette
and will be found among our selection. The Lon.
don times OF the Jlst, however, questions these
accounts, giving It's the great influence
OF tie Polish Diet and Government over the peo-
pic; the little credit possessed by tho patriotic club
who arc said 10 have causcd the insurrccliou, aud
who are said 10 be composed of few hot headed
stcdc Is, and finally, the great popularity Of Prince
Czarioriski, which renders it exceedingly i'm prob
able that hc should Gc suddenly displaced 10 make

the mean tine the friends of Poland arc kept in
suspense, or are prevented from acting with tho
requisite energy.
y shall not, however, disguise our conviction,
that if the accounts which we yesterday published
should turn out To be correct, .hc cause OF Poland
is lost, and that, for season, streams Of noble
blood have flowed in vain. The promotion Of the
two Generals above mentioned 20 the head of The
Government and army, woul! he both tho evidence
OF deadly sahsn in tho state, and the inlnc. ate
precursor OF Polish subjugation. AL thoso who
have hitherto defended the good cause with their
swords, or supported it with their counsols, would
refuse to range themselves under men whom they
deem unworthy their confidence, and who would
betray them into the hands of their cucinies; IL
civil contest wolld'thus arise, with u foreign foe
at the gate.
There reports mentioned in the French pa.
pers of negotiation in progress between the En-
Peror icholas an the Polish authorities; but they
DO not seem to DO generally believed.
