LATEST FROM EUROPE.

Reported Polish Victo,y.-Thc Nereus, arrised at Boston, has brougsit the Lon dof. Sun of the evening of June Sd. The oaly article from this paper furnish- ed by our Boston correspondent IS the following, which affords us some ground to hope that the gallant Poles have been winning another harvest of laurels. in in their unequal struggle with the Rus :: sians:
 From the London Snn of June g.
 We have yet nothing absolutely to au- theaticate the rumor mentioned yester- day, of another signal victory of the Poles, over the Russians. No doubt, however exists, of great and important advantages having been obtained by the former; and We have just been inform cd rom a most respectable source, that the Polish Legation is in possession oi the particulars af tll1is fresh victory Our informant. however, states that the obstinate and sanguinary conflict, which lasted two days, Qqlh and 20th Nav iook place with the Russian Imperial Guard commanded by Gen. Palllen, whichwere almost annihilated.
 Since the foregoing was in type, the Boston Evening Transcript of Satarday, has come to hand. It's foreign intelli- genee is of the highest importance, as will be seen by the following extracts. -sf these details are true to the extent reported, the Russian commander must have heen in a very disagreeable pre-
  dIcament, at the date Of these advices
 CONTINUED SUCCESS OF THE
 POLES
 The London Star of the evening of 2the Sd June ~says;-The brave Polish Commander has completely out-manmu- rered the Russians; while Polish corps was amusing them at Minsk, Skryznec- kl united all the corps on his left, cross cd the Bug, and taking Ostrolenka by assault, has proceeded to I.osaza, defeat cd the Russians Guards at Tychosin. aid in fact occupied the whole country setween the Bug and Nares.''

 From Bucf6s Apes.-By the Patsey P. Blount, at New York from Buen0s Ayres, the Editors of the Mercantile Advertiser have received d file of pa- pers to the lst of June. and the follow ing letter, which embraces the principal intelligence of interest:
 ''i ;tm happy to inform you that the prospect of a speedy termination, for q while at least, of the intestine scommo- lioHsso this country, is now better than it has been for some years-such at feast seems to be the opinion of the most unprejudiced portion of our commnni- ty. Gen. Paez, the head and life Of the Unitarian forces, was taken prisoner on the l0thMay,a is now on the road for BueHos Ayress This oeeufrance, t Is supposed, will induce a-large proportion of the opposing army either to join the Federal forces orsdispefse; and hereby compel the interior provinces 10 give Up the contest.
 Should this be the case we may con- clude that the intercourse with the IT, terior will be opened b} the spring, and that consequently during the ensuing summer more business will be done here than has been for tie last five years.
 But for the expectations which these cireunstaBees afford, the stoatest heart may despair. You cannot imagine tue present distressed State Of tho coantFf.

with shricks Of anguish-the warm
