Your country men in the highest degree of ciyiliza- ton, would not believe in the possibility of tie atrocities of which those barba- rians are every day guilty Murder, pillage, rape, arc some of the concom- tant evils of war; but at the present time il belonged to the Russians to add to the catalogue by illilicting horrors on harm- less and defenceiess people, which could not in any way be justified or excused.
 The conduct of the cabinets in i1u- rope ill regard to ths country is inexpli- cable, especially that of France. How does ithappen that the French Ministry remain indifferent 10 tic efforts making l'here on behalf of France, in arresting the progress of an enemy who wasmareh- ing to her frontiers? The conduct of Prussia and Austria is conceivable enough; but that of France inprostrat- ing herself before the Russian autoerat, even to=a greater extent than Prussia. is hardly credible. In Prussia the French agents and Freuchmen generally, who are travelling with French passports, are stopped merely because they are suspected ofbcing theirway to Poland.
 In Austria the same rigor towards us is observed. General Excelmans, who lately arrived here for the purpose of taking the command of the cavalry, was stopped in Austria, but he escaped and crossed the Yistula by swimming.

 ! The FILL Of WARSA ", ,safter a desperate but unavailing struggle on flle part of the unfortunate Poles, i the iTl- ltelligenee of the most absorbing inter- est contained in this Liverpool paper. ] A very large public meeting was held in Liverpool on the 5th March, at which resolutions were passed, rendering to Ministers tie support of the people of that town iii the aTtluous struggle in which they are engaged against the fac tions of the country.
 1 Liverpool, March i2.-r rostiEities have commenced in Poland, but the result is \ yet doubtful. The accounts received ' from the theatre of war are conflicting. and ase.eolorcd bby tic aiaa:as :t!!iie;is! which flfey- are conveyed. It was re- ported in Paris, on Tuesday last, that Praga had fallen, and that Warsaw had Isurrendered at discretion. The writer asserts ,thatsthe -unwclcomc report had been confirmed on the authority of Laf- fite, who had received the ncws from the French ambassador at Berlin.
 We are the more inclined to refuse giving the news credit, from the well authenticated fact of Polish yalor hay- ling previous to the 25th ut. proved vic torious. Marshal Diebitsch had 'ap- preached Warsaw m two divisions and medita!ed the attack on the side of pra- ga, faubourg of the Polish capital.- His forces amoutted 10 10000; the re- Emalnder of the Russian troops having been directed 10 other points, with q view of 'diverting the attention of the ldcfenders of the country from the seat of their government. To the invaders before Warsaw, they could oppose on- ly It,000 men, and these took up their position three leagncsin the city. Unimportant rencontres, subse- Auent to tue l4th, had taken place be- tween tie advanced posts of-both ar mics. always to the advantage of the Poles; and, on the Beth, an attack. which might be considered general engagement, took place. ltwas renew ed'on the following morning; and on the ensuing day. the valiant band of patri- Cts Was meditating |, continuance of the fight, when the Russian general thought
