FAIL OF WARSAW.

By the British ship Arkwright, which ar.
| rived last evening, from Dundee on the It'll
September, We have been able to obtain
from passenger the only lats paper on
bsard-the Dundee Courier Of The 20lh -
which CONTAINS the dissstrou. Intelligence we
give below of the surrender Of Warsaw to
the Russians. The captain of The Ark
wright states, that when no left Dundee he
had in bis possession three London papers
which contained a confirmation of this event,
but he gave them away at the Ockney Is
land, where he touched With his vessel.

FALL OF WARSAW:
The capital has at length ialien, After
two days Of sangulnary lighting the town
surrendered by capliulation, and the Ros
| slams entered Praga,
The toto,cag communication Is from The Of
flee Of tie London itwss et tie l7th
Official intelligence was received at Der
, lin, on the 18th Instant Of too captulat,ou
OF the city OF Warsaw, on the 7,E; AT SIX o.
clock, p ID. after two days bloody fighting
IN the neigbbsrhood, during which the Rus
slams carried by the assault all the entrepc-
ment which had been raised to protect lac
city
"The Polish army, followed by the diet
and the members OF the government, retired
through Praga on the nl.nt of the ia aud
early on the sth the Russian army entered
maintaining perfect order--persoas and pro
perry were respected
"Ihe Poles we're retiring upon Modlin
and Flock, where il was supposed they
would make an effort to maintain themselves "a.
Such is 'he substance Of this fatal intelli-
gence. Ii is still said that The Poles viii
maintain the struggle. But the loss Of their
| capital is fearfal blow, and ma, We fear,
| prove fatal to their cause.
1t will be perceived that the above is SAID
TO be "communlca tian" from Tho Loudon
Times, not an extract. The Tunes receives
an express from Paris every ether day, and
the presumption is, that on the 18th tl,eirex
press did not arrive until after their edition
was printed; and consequently, that they
merely announced the tact TO the public, aud
forwarded the particulars to different parts of
the united kingdom. Tbs is the more pro.
bahle. as the 'Sun'' Of the afternoon OF the
18th merely alludes to the fact without CIV
ing any OF the particulars, aud states toe,
that Warsaw fell on the lth instead of tue
7th There is not the slightest reason 20
doubt the authenticity oil this intelligence, as
gence" was received at Berlin On the lh
The following is the extract alluded to,
from the Loaden Sun Of the i7tb:
"A morning cotemperary me1tIons the ga
pituiatIon oil Warsaw as a catastrophe that
took place on the | It'll after "two days BLOC
dy fighting in the nelgbborhood, durag which
the Russians carfies by assault all the en-
trene hments which hadbeeB raised 10 protect
the city" We have still our hopes that this
disastrous news Is uniounded; il however, it
unluekly prove TO be correct, We snail trem-
bic Tor the sensation it will create in the
French capital. The people there feel an in
tense interest in the cau,e OF the Poles, and
will net, We apprsheBd, tamely brock the in
teiligencs oil the TALL Of Warsaw.
CITY, IL o'etOok.--The most unwelcome
news for some inIe past 10 announced this
morning-the capltulaton OF Warsaw after
two days fighting in It's environs, with the
sterming of the Polish enirenehmsnts by the
Russians. The fate OF the brave, but unfor-
tunate Poles, is in general deplsred through
out the city; some faint hopes are expected
from the Polish army, who have made good
their retreat towards Flock; no doubt the
Emperor Of Russia will grant them favorable
terms, which they must accept n their point
dappm. WarSa,g is lost--we must now look
/. to Paris and the French nation, hoH they
| will receive this sad catastrophe. and the ef-
feet 1t will have on the ministers oil the King
| oil the French 1t will no doubt cause a
great sensation throughout France; bat it is
too late-the die is sast.
