two Russian corps, that such was the
panic produced by this bold attack,
which they did so little expect, that they
were again put to flight, and were pur-
sued through SicdIcc, where the ad-
vanced guard of the Polish army, com
manded by General Thomas Lubicnski,
who took his station Il short distance on
this SiCdlec, the stall taking their quar-
ters at kaluszy, at which place II still
remains. Time does not permit me To
say more than that have Just read the
third report from General Skrzynecki,
in which he states that the fruits of
these victories are--l0,OOO prisoners,
- cannon, very great quantity OF
ammunition and baggage Wagons, 2OOO
killed, / General, several superior oni-
GERS, at least 100 officers of inferior
rank; and that the corps of Gen. Roscn,
which at the opening of the campaign
amounted to 10000 has dwindled down
to 1000; but, what is Of the greatest
Importance, that the loss Of the Poles
these two days is only about 4OO-say
400 killed. This you will say is i'll
credible; but the still more favorable
news Is, that Il great many Of the enc
my's troops, who have been taken prs-
oners, have entered into the Polish SER
vice as volunteers. They are now
being armed and clothed. 1t was a
first intended to make regiment of
them, as they amount to upwards Of
! 1000 men; hut it was afterwards thought
better to ntcrmngle them with the
other troops This | can vouch for, as
| have my ysclf seen the Russian troops.
This will astonsh Europe. In day or
two it is expected there will be gen
eral battle.
From the Messenger des Chambres, April I6.
/ Extract of letter dated Hanau,
April llth-"Alter the battle of the
3lst, the National Guards of Warsaw
were ordered out to escort the priso!
ers, and to pick up the wounded, III
/ order to allow the victorious army
| leisure to pursue its advantages
! Another battle was fought on the Cd
inst. The result was the total dcstruc
ton of the division commanded by Ro-
sen. The Poles are SAID to have made
1000 prisoners, and taken several pieces
of cannon and standards. The msur-
rcction in Lithuania makes progress,
and it is thought that the posts to ST.
! Petersburg must be sent on by sea from
! Memel The details of the last battle
are not exactly known, as the country
PEOPLE were bringing III prisoners every
minute. The remainder of the Russian
Grand army must be in critical situa-
ton, as the ground is boggy, and their
supplies cut of, The land they occupy
! furnishes nothing, for they spread de-
struction on their entry. These glorious
events must insure the independence of
! Poland"
II LONDON, April 10. Steamboats, from
Holland and Hamburg have arrived this
afternoon. AT the former, prices of the
public securities had experienced a
triling improvement, in the course of
Friday and Saturday. In the Hans
/ Towns the success of the Poles had
created the utmost enthusiasm. A Con-
gress at Warsaw is noticed in the Ham.
burg as well as the French letters.
/ Foreign bonds are in general a shade
| higher
n The firm state of the Consul market
! throughout the day is to be attributed
! exclusively to the sanguine expect Itlons
entertained in the city, relative to the
| success of the reform bill.
( 1t is stated upon authority Of French
/ papers, that the Austrians had consented
to evacuate that portion of Italy, the pos
session of which had excited the atten-
ton and displcasure of Louis Philippe.
This is attributed by the French Cabinet
to dread of u war, as an alternative.

contractor in Paris, who was reported to
