A very angry discussion arose in the
Chamber Of Deputies on the 10Th, on
the discussion of the vote of extraordin-

POLAND. The German papers which
arrived this morning do not supply much
additional information respecting the
hostile operations against Poland. We
suboin few extracts, but they are
chiefly new versions of fact which have
been before mentioned:
WARSAW, April 1th. The State
Gazette, Of Warsaw contains among
the official articles, two reports from the
field Of battle, at Dembcwiclkie, the
other April lst, ten +. NJ. The samc
paper contains, also the following ac

March 81. Last night the Russians
attempted to burn the bridge from War
saw to Praga. They launched at
karczcw three boats filed with COM
bustiblcs, one Of which had also several
hundred shells on board, the bursting Of
which it was supposed, would prevent
any persons from attempting to save the
bridge when il would be set on fire
Several boats with Cossacks on board
followed at distance, in order to set
the fire ships ailoat, if they should hap
pen to run aground. The plan failed
for the fire ships ran aground, and the
shells beginning to burst killed some OF
the Cossacks, and obliged the others to
put back. Two of the fire ships burnt,
the third remained aground, and the cx-
plosion ofthc shells was heard for five
hours, and hence it was reported that a
heavy Cannonade had been heard in the
direction of WiIlanow. lfthc fire ships
had not run aground, the object would
still have failed, as every precau,ion had
been taken
\ April !. Tho success Of Yesterday is
wholly owing to the bold and skiliul
manuuvres Of the General-in- Chief,
which were executed with such rapidty
and secrecy, that even the inhabitants
of the capital, though all passed under
their walls, heard at the same time of
the bcgnnip. of the action and its sue
cess. The bridge of Praga had been
covered with straw, that the rumbling of
heavy cannon passing over it might not
be heard. The prisoners brought to
Warsaw are Of the 2lth and 25th divis-
ions. Almost the whole of the 95th
regiment were taken prisoners.
The Polish regiment, called the "Sons
Of Warsaw" which were under the
command of the French Col Romarno,
who was in the battle as Brigadicr Gen
eral, was engaged for the first time
Field Marshal Diebtsch did not witness
this battle, being just then engaged in
reviewing the Guards, who had lately
arrived. Gen. Skyrzyneck had
horse wounded under him. The mem
bers Of the Governmcnt-Czartoriski,
Barry ykawski, and Count Gustavus Nal
achowski, Minister for Foreign Affairs
were in the hottest Of the fire. The
day before yesterday, the dead bodies
in and near Biatolinka were buried
Five hundred men, provided with spades,
were sent for that purpose.
| Capt. Lcski, aid-dc-camp to the
Commandcr-in-Chcf, has brought to
Warsaw the standards taken on the 1st;
he left the Gencral-n- Chief at ka-
luszyn. Up to - o'clock at noon, on
the Cd, 1000 prisoners had been
brought into Warsaw, and more con-
tinucd to arrive. Eleven cannon, taken
in the battle, have also been brought in,
and eleven more are expected. A
