 Bertits April 6.-Letters from War
 saw have been received here by express
 which contain the details Of the very sc
 rious loss which the corps of Gen. Geis-
 mar, has sustained by an attack from the Poles under Skfzynecki, executed
 with equal boldness and success, on the
 3Ist March and Ist April. The Polish eommander-in-chiei was informed of the negligence ofthe Russians at Wawerand
 Grochow. in their environments and
 camp. He led corps of 25,o00smen
 on the Both ut. to Praga, and in the
 night Of the 3lst approached the Rus sian camp; the road was covered with straw. so that the artillery aRd-cavalry
 advanced without being perceived. 10 which the darkness of the night did not little contribute. The advance guard of General Geiemar, consisting of 5000 or 10000 men, was first attacked, and almost wholly destroyed. The Poles took 4Ga0 prisoners, and IS pieces Of cannon. Tie latter, ornamenfed. with green boughs, were brought into War saw. Skrzynecki followed up his victo- ", and fell uponvthe corps of General Bosen. who, with 10000 men, was post ed at Dembe Wielsk. He, too, was obliged to yield to the impetuous attack of the Poles-lost 200G prisoners, and 9 pieces of cannon. The Russians re- tired by way of Minsk, to join the main. body of their army. Some of the fugi- lives fed to Siedlec, wlrithcr they were pursued by the Crasowites. Skzrynecki had on the ist of April, his headquaF- ters at Minsk, where, however. he willbe hardly able to maintain himself as soon IS Diebitsch, with his whole force, advan- ces against him. The moral impression which this victory, by which at least %, 900 Russians are put horS dH con1b0t, will make especially in the provinces in the rear of the army, is incaleulable; for their fanatic priests. as formerly iIl Spain and Tyrol, excite the peasants to insnrrection, and these savage hordes increase to such threatehifgsfnasses, that the Russian civil officers and frontier posts are obliged to take refuge in the. Prussian territory.-HQm. Cor.
 In addition to the accounts in the Pol ish Gazette, the priyateinformationf from Hamburg states that the battle of the 3l st was renewed on the lst instant, and terminated in d brilliant victory, the Russians having lost l2,00O prisoners, 23 pieces of artillery } stands of colors, and nearly the whole of their arms, bag gage, and ammunition. Among the prisoners is said to be Russian Gene ral and his four Aidcs-de-camp. Moth ing seems left for General Diebitsch, according to the Hamburg accounts, but a speedy retreat and that under circum- stunt tS SO ulliituil ttS tQ (Oil lJtO dCliOll all the known energy and resources of bis character. It is impossible to des- cribe the delight which these glorious efforts of the brave Poles have caused
 onthe Exchange of London. They are
 the theme cf universal admiration.
 Official Dultctia.-W Wdrsaap, April l.- The Commander-in-chief having learn cd that Marshal Diebitsch had divided his forces, and only left small corps of his army to observe the capital, took the resolution to pass with a great part of his to tho right bank of the Vistula. Af ter having previously sert General Uminski towards Osirolenka, to keep in check the corps of General Sacken and .Ae Guards who wefe advancing there, he quilted Warsaw during the night of the Both ut. and attacked at Wawer the corps of General Geismar, who were entrenching in very streng and advantageous sposition.--
