A general illumination took place in
London on the evening Of the 9th, in
rejoicing for the dissolution of Farlia-
ment. 1he display is stated TO have been
Of Il very splendid description, and one
that showed the great unanimity of the
inhabitants Of the metropolis On the sub
ject of Reform. Some disorders on the
part of the mob occurred, and the wiz
dows Of the houses occupied by certain
antl-rciUrm members Of parliament were
dashed to pieces, but no very serious dis
turbancos took place. The London
Courier says that that worst portion oithe
mob, which is always prone TO mischief,
broke the windows Of some persons who
obstinatcly refused to light up a few can
dies when called upon TO do so; but gen
orally the crowd behaved in IL dccorous
manner, and considering the immense
numbers Of persons congr' gated togeth-
or, more oldcr was observed than Is us
ual on such occasions.
| The Intelligence from the Poles is still
favorable. I he utmost that the Russian
General has attempted is to concentrate
his forces, and to pursue system Of eau

POLAND.
Il Marshal Dicbitsch, says that the Lon
don Courier of April 80, has Withdrawn
his head quarters from the banks OF the
Nistula, and rctreated to Sicdlec to JOIN
the remains of the corps OF Geismar, Ro-
sen, and Pahlcn, which were SO man
I.I al h. Of Al |,
and the beginning Of the present month.
As the Russian commander announced, ,
even after the first of April, his intention
to continue his operations, and to cross
the Nistua as soon as possible, this re-
treat sufficiently shows the importance OF
the subsequent success of Skrzynecki,-
1t appears certain, however, that the
Poles have made some unsuccessful at
tacks on SiedIec, where the Russians
concentrated their artillery before Die
bitsch's arrival, and strongly fortified the
position, which is necessary for keeping
up their communication with Russia, or
rather with Lithuapia, which is now, we
hope, not Russian. The Russian ac-
count Of fDwernicki's movements is anus
ing:-"General kreutz sent word that
he would "colect his troops together and
attack Dwernicki, who, "as he suppos-
ed, would attempt to retreat over the
Nistula. "But at the same time re-
port from General Rudiger "announcc cd
that Dwernicki had crossed the Bug"
As if an army expected to retreat south
of the Thames should advance to the
north of the Trent; for the Bug and the
Nistula are, at the points in question, a
hundred miles apart.
| Dwcrnicki's corps and the Nolhynians
now interrupt the Russian communlca-
tons with kiow and the south, while the
Lithuanian insurrection cuts them of
from " lima and Mlnsk, and their north
ern Magazines-Though we mu t not
reckon too sanguinely that great army
will be destroyed because It's commune
cations arc embarrassed, these circum-
stances subject the Russians to Difficult
ties of which the Poles have skill and
gallcntry and We hope physical force,
enough to avail themselves.
"a he great difficulty of procuring sub
sstencc" is already spoken ofby Die
bitsch, and it is obvious, from the mar
row space occupied by the operations
hitherto, that the immediate neighbor-
hood of the armies must be much wasted
Il Letters of the 18th inst from Warsaw
announce that the cholera morbas has
reached one of the divisions OF Gen.

through the Russian prisoners taken Oh

! FASTENED there the moment the report
reached the Polish capital, have ascer-
tanned the existence OF the disease. The
