 attacks. The Polish army was divided oD each side of the Vistula, and moving as circumstances dictated. The entire Polish loss iia killed and wounded in the late battles, is estimated at between 6, COG and 7,800 men. The official ac- counts from St. Petersburg, as well as private letters received this morning through Frankfort, dated in the Russian Camp before Praga, on the 25th ut. confirm the previous accounts fine des- pera1e resistance ahich the Poles have made, but, as may be expected, claim the victory.
 Dutch and Hamburgh papers, receiv- cd in London on the i5th ult. the former of which are of so late date as the l2thinst. contain intelligence from War saw to the 4th. The Russian army, contrary to the report circulated of the surrender of that cify, had not been able 10 make any attempt upon it, CT nnder- take any operation on q large scale since the 25th of last month. The action on that day was the most sauguinary, and appears to have greatly weakened the force on both sides. The loss of the Poles is stated at between } and 6,090 killed and wounded, and that of the Russians at treble that amount.

 News has been received, that on the 2Gth Feb. Col. Lagowski, with i20 cav airy, and 100 yagers, passed the EistuIa at Pulaway. The action lasted from } till half past nine o'clock. The Russians barricaded themselves in d building, but were beaten: three officers, ITO dra- goons, and above 90 horses, with their equipments, fell into our hands. The magazine was saved. Many military effects and much ammunition were ta- ken. Prince Czartorlski gave due praise to all the Poles.

 The Warsaw Coarierof the lst says -s.Last night, some corps of the ene- my, attempting to throw up entrench- ments near 5Faga, were driven of by the fire of the artillery from the walls of that fortress: twenty Cossacks were made prisoners. Towards Loniza, also our men repalsed aa enemA's corps which attempted to approach from that side
 The same paper, under the head of the 2d, says: Yesterday parties of Cossacks showed themselves below Fra ca. and on the banks of the Saxon We der; but every time they came near they were driven back by our fire, and some of them taken prisoners. Itis said there had been an action at PaltHsk, but po certain information has been received respecting it. ;
 The State Gazette, of Warsaw, says; --" Beyond praga all is tranquil ohly at intervals we heara few musket shots, and see CossaGks. We fetch brush wood from the Saxon Wedcr. lts said that four Russian cannon sunk, which they attempted to convey across frozen ditch to the Saxon Weder. For some days past the weather has been very stormy: drifting snow, thaw, and tenn pestuous weather succeeded each other. 1t is unfortunate that our troops have to eneamp u the openair. Fleld-Marshall Count Diebitsch has divided his army; columns were seen marching in differ ent directots towards the north and south. Some regiments of the Russian Guards, which left Warsaw in Deccm- Der were eugaoed on the 25th. Bialolen- ka were the cuirassiers, at Grochow the clans, whose commander, Gen. Markow, was wounded.
