London papers to the Sd ult. have been re-
ceived in Boston. we CLEAN from them the
following items
An official communication TO the British Gov
eminent has been received from Poland, asking
for recognition of independence.
The London Star of the evening Of the Sd
June says" The brave Polish commander has
completely out. manGuvred the Russians While
a Polish Corps was amusing them at MInsk,
Skryznscki united all his corps on his left,
crossed the Bug, and taking Ostrolenka by as
sault, has proceeded to Lomza, defeated the
RUSSIAN Guards at Tychosin, and in fact occu-
pied the whole country between the Bug and
Narew."
Accounts from Warsaw OF May 25 left Die
bltsch at Zoeolow, apparently in route for o.
troenka or for Biclsk or Bialystoek, with no
resource but to throw himself on the protec-
ton of Prussia, as Dwernicki threw himself ON
the protection of the Austrians. He has. how
ever, to cross the Bug and Narew, with Polish
corps on every side of him.
BY this mastery movement. the Polish Cen
eral has placed himself in contact with the
Sumogitians, Lithunians, and other reyoltsd
districts, by whose population his army will be
indefinitely augmented, so as to leave to Die
bitsch no prospect of escape, but within the
Prussian frontiers
lie IndTcH OF OKTyZneCkl IL WIthOut paral-
lei in modern warfare. From Warsaw to Os-
trolenka, was flank march of full 30 miles
thence to Lomza another 30 and to Tychosin
20 more-the last SO being in the rear Of the
Russian grand army. The Poles seem, also, to
have gained advantages in a repulse of the
Russians at Mlnsk and this, with the new 90
slion OF Skryznecki, no doubt forced Diebtsol,
to retreat 10 Zocolow, near the lower Bug.
The ranks of the Warsovians have also been
recruited by volunteers from Prussian and
Austrian Poland and tho whole campaign re-
semblss war chiva!ry in which the enlight-
ened enterprise Of Europe Is directed individu-
ally, against the further encrsachments of the
barbarous Muscovites Tartars and Siberians.
WarSato, May lS. Since last Thursday the
two armies are in full movement. Gen Die
bltsch has made manGuvre with the principal
part of his army, in the direction of the Bug
and Narew, with manifest intention to got
into the wawodie of Flock, to gain the Prussian
frontiers. The motive of this change of posi-
tion is not difficult TO be understood, as the
Russian General finds it difficult to receive his
conveys from Russian Poland, and he now
wants to gain the Prussan frontiers to be in
communication with Thorne, where he has a
considerable magazine of provisions and ammu-
milton waiting for his approach
Three hundred Polish officers have received
orders to proceed to Lithuania, to organize
the instruction there. We have this moment
report that in the environs of Osrrolenka tha
Imperial Russian Guard have experienced
new check. Gen. Uminski commands in that
quarter.
A Warsaw paper, ofthe 2lst May, announces
that Gen. Skryznecki had taken Ostrolenka ON
the 10th where he obtained a large sum of
money, the baggage of the enemy, and 1900
prisoners The object of Skryznecki in ad-
vancing to Ostrolenka, is supposed to have
been to get between the Russians and their
supplies.
