 PARIS, March 31.
 The Berlin State Gazette contains the fol- lowing letter from Sennica, dated March 10: "Maior General Baron Sacken having been ordered to clear the country between the Wkra and the Narew, and to open Coiitihu nication with Lomza, directed his march from Naselsk towards Makow and Rozana. But as he might have been harrased by the rebels, who had a corps of 5000 men, "ith hllie pieces of cannon, and about the same nu.'- s Der of troops in the villages on the oahNS ol 'le Wkra. General Sacken made teint of act- mo mn the offensive. He ordered Colonel Lachmann to proceed with four squadrons o1 Lancers and a party of Cossacks from Nowo- mirporod towards Sochaczyd, to take up po- sition at Nowomiastro, and, the next morn ing. to attack the Poles at Maluszyn. Colonel Lachmann reached the village on lhe otli, at daybreak On the opposite bank Of the " krd were stationed two Polish regiments ot Lan- cers, who, however, did not take any part Tn the combat. Col. Lachmann was received with discharges of musketry; upon which ne ordered his Carbineers and Cossacks to als mount, and attack the village in front. Al the same time he detached two squadrons of
  Muller to occupy the bridge. These mea- sures had the desired effect; the Poles were driven into the village, and retreated towards the river, which they could no longer pass by the bridge, About 800 were drowned, many were killed, and those who defended them selves in the houses perished in the flames The commander of the detachment of the Free Corps (Major Wengrodzki, three cap tains, two lieutenants, and 200 sub-otiicers and soldiers,) fell into the hands ot the Rus sians as prisoners The promptness ot the attack preserved the detachment ot Colonel Lachmann from serious loss. In the mean whle Gen. Sacken marched towards Goly- mine, and Colonel Lach mann joined him in the night of the 9th inst. This result will tend to restore order in the country. On the left wing Lieutenant General hreutz had adVanc- ed as far as Suchodo He then resolved to cross the Wieprz, which he did on the 9th, after continual shirmishes On the the Eth and 9th with the troops of Dwerncki, who as it appears, had the same design in view.
 By means of side march Gen. Kreutz reached Lenezna. As he learned there that only z, 900 of the rebels were at Lubin, and that the troops of Gen. Witt, were distant on- ly two days march, he determined upon taking the town, and attacked it on the 11th. The suburbs where the inhabitants had been arm cd offered a powerful resistance, but on the dragons dismounting from their horses, the suburbs were taken. The Russians penetrat- ed into the houses in which the Poles defend ed themselves, and the town sent a flag of truce to the General, and proposed an unconditional surrender to the mercy of the conqueror- The resistance of the Poles was most obsti- nate. The Russian dragoous were obliged to make their way by force through the barri- cades in the streets, to storm the entrench ments, and drive the enemy from their strong holds.
 The Poles lost three hundred men as pris- oners, and had many killed and wounded; the rest fed in every direction. It is stated that Gen. Dwernicki has sent part of his troops to Zamosc, and that he still occupies Krasnostaw with the other part. Hence it appears that he has given uphis plan ofmarch- ing on Volhynia. The Count de Toll reach. ed Lublin on the 18th inst. We hourly eX- pect report on the measures he will have ta- ken to cut off the retreat of General Dwer- ncki. The latter, however, has the advan- tage of finding himself ahead by several marches"
 "Mr Casimir Perier,'' says the Tribune, "wishlng to make display of force in the for eign policy, has addressed note to Count d'Appony, the Austrian Ambassador, de- manding explanations as to the occupation of
 
 has said very seriously, that France could not consent. The Ambassador replied, that the occupation Of Bologna had been concerted between Prussia Russia, England, and Aus tria; and that the Austrian Government was resolved to stfe rebellion 7vhcrever it might break out.'
 The Journal des Dcbats has the following, upon the question at this moment at issue be- tween France and Austria:-"T The declara- tion made to the Chamber of fDeputies on Mon day, by the President of the Council, is a com plete and noble answer to the party who, since, his entrance into office, have accused him of being determined on peace, cost what it may. Since the glorious part we acted in the affairs of Belgium, this is the first occa- sion on which foreign intervention could be injurious either to the honor or interests of France! We'll M. Casimir Perier does not hesitate to demand explanations, which sup portedby an army of 500,0 GOO men, cannot fail to be honorable the party who calls for them. There arc persons who conceive that it would be better to open negotiations at the cannon's mouth. These, no doubt, imagine that it is not sufficiently to the honor of France, to cause Bologna to be evacuated by mere note of threats They are so susceptible on this point, that they wish a cartel to be al once de- livered, and the explanation to come after wards; but a wise Government, fully aware of its great responsibility, first sends threats, and then follows them up by marching regi- ments. By adopting this method, it secures the advantage of making its quarrel just, and gains reason and humanity on its side, which, as all know from experience, neither spells a good cause, nor damps the enthusiasm of a na- tion, ii it be not founded in folly, or the fact- tious result Of system of terror. The en- trance of the Austrians into Bologna is an at tack upon the independence of Europe In demanding from Austria an explanation ofhcr
