 raj Prondzynski to him 10 announce tf,a |iHtentios Of the Polish nation to sabni. to it's legitimate King. These sent;- ments were, however, not confirmed by that Chief of the Government. who
 soon after came in person 10 the Mar shal. He affirmed that the consent of the Diet was necessary for such submis~ sion. After the most urgent exhorta- lions and representations of the irutjIi- y of further defence, and the disasters which it would inevitably bring vii, it. the General withdrew at ten o'clock in the forenoon. fiereupon, three hours
 more were granted to fte General Kro.
 kowiecki, within which time he was to
 announce to the Marshal his final resos

 hour more was requested for considera- ton, but this also elapsiHg without a
 satisfactory answer being given, the Marshal issued orders for the attack.~ 1t was terrible, and very successful, flags of truce were sent, but tI1e3 brouphi only diiatory answers. The attack was. therefore, begun upon the second line of intrenchments, which was carried af the point of the hayonet. The enemy.
 who in the nleantime received re;n- iorcements, vigorously defended the gardens ard the edges Of the ditches
 towards the Jerusalem barrier. and
 even made our troops give way for a
 moment; but the afdor of the latter re.
 vived; they quickly scaled the walls of the city, which presented most formi- dable line of defence. The prodigies
