To Post Masters and Agents.-The following

To Post Masters and Agents.-The following ex- tract of letter from the post master general settles most clearly and definitely very important point, in relation to which we have heretofore suffered grievously from the neglect of too many post mas ters to comply with the law and their instructions on the subject mentioned The remedy to which the post master general has decided that we are en- titled, is in exact accordance with what we have long believed to be both te law and tine equity in the case, and is thoroughly efficient and satisfactory. If post masters do not give due notice to the pub lshers in case any of papers are not taken from their offices they are liable to pay the sum which would be due from the subscribers. ."-N. r.

The following extract from the address of General BERTRAND on offering himself as a candidate to the electoral college of Chateauroux, shows the con stant reference made by the friends of freedom, elsewhere, to the example of the U. States:
 The question of an hereditary peerage, and some other points which have latterly been agated sufficiently prove that there be no safety for France except in the establishment of public liberty, and the economy of the public money. But fear not to say that the electors have lost sight of the most important question, question which should take the lead of all others, and without which it is impossible to reason usefuy upon the means of es- tablishng any government in modern tmes among an undebased people. That question is--the un- limited liberty of the press, which is the foundation, the palladium of freedom. The liberty which the British possess of printing, publishing and circulat- ing what they please, has alone secured the revolu- ton f169S and caused that island to resist the vices of it's old aristocracy It is the liberty of the press which has secured the independence of the United States In that country they are said to possess t,oo Mousand newspapers, as we'll as t,oo Mousand ciitages."

surrectlon in the kussoi'osn provinces IS ex,eu,. ing with great rapdily. Lithuana and Samogitia will soon be able to establish their independence and to send Deputies to the national Diet at War saw. Gen, Glegud is at the head f 4O0OO men and is proceeding towards Wilma and the sea coast. In Samogitia 10000 insurgents are inder arms and the Commander-in-Chief has transmitted to the Go vernment the report of victory gained by party ofthe same gallant people in the province of Volby mia. Gen. Dembnsk with another auxiliary force entered Lithuania at Oliua, 50 or 60 miles soutb west of Wilma, where he also was joined by a strong body of the insurgents. who had previously beaten a Russian detachment andcaptured two pieces of cannon and supplies near Troki not far from the capital ofthe province. Gn Chlapowski. who en tered Llthuania near Bialystoc before the other corps, after having dsperseotwo columns-one near Bieski, the other near Prolzana-marcbed nortb- ward, crossed the Niemen elst of Grodno. and ar- rived at Lida on the 9th June, where he was joined by many attachments of the insurgents, and large body of the nobles of Lithuaia.
 The Polish Commander il Chief moved his head quarters, about the middle d June, from Praga to Siennica the place which heoccupicd before he be- gan his series of manGuvres on the Narew; he is said, however, to have been recalled, by an nten- ton shown by the Russians tC cross the Narew and Bug near Serock. But the intentions of neither party are manlfest-and the Polish General has been hitherto peculiarly successful in disgusting his in tended movements The Polish Government has announced loan of sixty millions of 1orns-for raising which they mainly depend on their fellow citizens The efforts ofpersonal generosity and pe- cuniary sacrifices, by which the Poles have hitherto supported the expenses of the war, have been at least as remarkable as their military virtues We
 trust that means will be taken to afford the friends of liberty in Great Britain an opportunity of contribut-
 ing their mites towards the support of the gallant and patriotic Poles in their sanguinary struggles with the yrant of the North.
 Letters from Warsaw state that the Prussians are constructing a bridge for the Russians over the Drewenca, to facilitate their passage over the Vislu-
 la. It appears that the grand Polish army is going to attack the Russians on the side of fultusI. Au- thentic accounts have been received that General Chlapowsk has obtained brilliant successes over the Russians, and that he was proceeding to Lthuania with his corps which was daily increasing.
