|. MELANCHOLY Situation of Poland. new
Bresaw Gazette contains the following deplora-
BILE account of the state of the Poles. so late as the
alst of April. We find it in the London Stan
dard of the Evening of May 6, under the date
of Augsburgh, April %:
Travellers from Poland, who have lately
come from Lublin by way Of Warsaw, cannot
find words to describe the lamentabe condition
OF that unhappy country. The country beyond
the vistu.a. which, for the last ten weeks, has
been the theatre of the continual marches and
countcr-marches of the hostile armies, is dread
fully devastated; the hahi,ations near the roads
partly demolished; the inhabitants fled into the
forests: the cattle and sheep consumed; the little
corn used to feed the horses and cattle for the
use of the troops. The appearance OF Warsaw
is equally deplorahe. Though it was rejoiced
for few DAYS at the heroic exploits of its troops,
vet the majority of the citizens look with appre-
hension on the unequal conflict, and fear more
distressing times, as news have been received
from all quarters that Count Debitsch recon-
mences his official operations, and having re-
ceived fresh reinforcements, is approaching War
saw The streets of the city are put in a state
to make most desperate resistance. The in
habitants 90 about gloomy and reserved, or shut
themselves up in their houses, for the slightest
doubt in the truth of the reports IN the newspa-
pers is sufficient to make the most respectable CT
tixen to be looked on as a spy, ami put his life
in danger. No eqnipages are to DC seen IN the
streets, that used to be so animated, at the most
Ia wagon with military effects or wounded. Sick
nesses increase, and some fears OF chiOe'a have
been entertained Trade and manufactures are
quite suspended; Foreigners engaged in manulac-
tories endeavor candes,inely to leave the coun-
try, because they are dragged away to serve in
| the army. The left bank of the Vistula does
not present 50 melancholy prospect; but even
there scarcely third Of the fields has been sown,
in consequence of the failure of the crops last
wear, and the scarcity of good seed corn. When
| the revolution broke out, corn ct all kinds was
seized and conveyed to the army; magazines
were secretly sold at low prices, because money
was more easily concealed than corn. But now
that the sowing time in spring has come, there is
no seed corn, to which we add our want OF horses
and oxen. which have been taken away from the
poor citizens. Provisions already begin to be
scarce, and unless timely precautions are taken,
famine may be expected in Poland in few
months. A letter from Biaystook Of the 9th
April says not wcTd of any disturbances in
that neiyhborhOod. The Grand Duke Constan-
tine and the Princess of I.owiez had been there
ever since the end of February; such large DO.
dies of troops from the interior Of Russia were
| passing that way, that all the villages were
crowded, aud it was necessary to lodge part OF
the troops in barracks"

FLouR.-'Thursday the wagon price of Flour
was steady at 81 90 TO OF; the only sales we
heard of from stores that day was contract for
500 bbIs. payable and deliverable on the 10th day
of July, at Is.
Yesterday the wagon price was few cents bet
ter; We quote 4 02 4 05. AT the same time
that dealers are not willing to buy from wagons
at over about dollars, they decline selling
even at AIS. The causeIis, that very few have
any on hand, and they are not disposed to risk
selling at the present reduced rates until they
have secured the purchase. A shipping mer-
chant yesterday morning offered almost every
dealer in the street 90 to IS, without, we be-
leve. being able to purchase. We learned sub
seauently that some was sold at 80.
GRAIN.-We reduce our quotations of GRAIN
Of all descriptions. Wheat 80 90 cts, nominal,
none coming to market. Corn 60 cts; every
market in the District glutted, and sales can
not readily be made at our quotations. Rye
62a cents, sales.
The price of Conn MEAL has declined with
that of Corn. Yesterday load Of well ground
white meal, suited, brought IS cts We reduce
our quotations of Oats shade, and now quote
IS a 40 cents.
