The news from Poland, as will be seen
by the extracts given below, is OF deplora-
bile character it appears TO he The general
opiuion that the instruction has terminated
in the. entire subjugation. Positive in'or-
nation had been received at Vienna, on the
Odd of September, that in the night OF the
10th inst. Romarino, with his corps, consist
ing of $4,000 men, laid down his arms and
was entirely surrounded by Austrian troops.
The Cholera is making frightiul prog
ress in Europe it IS rapidly spreading over
Germany, and making lis way by slow but
sure advances to the Rhine and the from
tiers of France. In Vienna it has broken
out in violent MANNER and the utmost con-
sternation prevails. On the 18th Septem-
Der, forty-one persons were attacked, out
of which number ten died, one was cured
aud 30 at the close Of the day remained i'll.
On the 18th, the maledy increased GA died,
none cured, and 105 remain i'll. This est-
mate probably falls far short Of the actual
number of deaths. The Emperor does not
shut himself up, but magnanimously lives
in the midst of his people.
The affairs of the Netherlands are still
undecided but a defnitive treaty was
shortly expected to be concluded between
Holland and Belgium, under the mediation
of the Ministers of the Great Powers in
London.
London, Oct. 6. Notwithstanding our
fondest hopes for the fate of poor Poland
hopes but too delusively encouraged by
some of the recent intelligence from that
Quarter-the star of its independence seems
to have wholly set, Mt least for the present.
and that extraordinary nation has moth
ing now to expect but in the generosity OF
mercy of barbarian conqueror. The last
stuy of hope is undermined.
There is no longer, says the latest ac-
counts received last night, any doubt re-
naming Of the fate of the corps OF the 20
lish General Romarino, since, according tc
the Austrian Observer, positive information
from Lemberg had been received at Wen
ma, on the 23d Of September, that in the
night Of the 10th inst. Romarino, with his
corps, had fled into the Austrian territory
at Cheyalonce in Gallacia, not having beer
able to cross the Vistula at Zawechost.--
This corps, according to General Romail-
nos own statement consists OF i5,U0O men
with $500 horses, and was encamped nj
Chevaonice, having laid down its arms, anc
was entirely surrounded by Austrian troops
/. Preceding arrivals of German papers had
rather prepared US for q mercitul treatment
Of the Poles by the Emperor, commended
we take it, as much by the necessity of re-
conciling the unconquerable spirits of thai
people, as induced by any tender sugges'
tions of the Autocrat's own heart. The
Poles, though beaten, have triumphed in the
awe which they have inspired in their ty-
rants; but how dearly has this advantag &c
been bought! The Allgemeine Zeitung
of the 9Th, says that much dissatisfaction
had been created at st. Petersburg by the
open manner in which the French King, the
French Chamber, and the people of France
have avowed their sympathy Cor the Poles
their almost hostility to the Russians
The Poles will be treated with great mild.
ness for the heroism of their nationality
had found admirers even in st. Petersburg.
Paris, Oct 4. We learn by a letter from
Berlin that bis Imperial Highness the Grand
Duke Michael is to be appointed Viceroy Of

tine.
Poland is again under the yoke of the
Muscovite. Italy is passive Belgium is pro
ceeding to organize something like Gov.
eminent, which will be allowed 10 endure
so long as it shall be the convenience of the
three other great Continental Powers to re.
fran from attacking France. Popular tu-
mults, on confined scale, occur daily ir
some or other of the districts or states Of
Switzerland and Germany. France laborE
under difficulties and disadvantages which
the alarmists contend will lead to another
revolution, and the assertion of her rank
among nations, or 10 her subjugation nnd
partition a la Poland. Such, it appears tc
me, is the actual state of Europe, and with
in that single assertion I shall limit my OBJ
servations on general politics. There i:
nothing inviting or sufficiently pleasing il
the sketch TO tempt one to extend it.
