We rejoice TO see that the of Inflated,
bleeding Poland has only engaged the smypa.
thies of the British nation, but awakened the at
tenon of the British Parliament. In the House
of Commons, June 2Sth, debate OF thrilling in
terest occurred on this melancholy subject, from
which we select such extracts our time and
limits permit. II was introduced by speech
from Mr. Guitar Ferguson, who reviewed the
history of Poand's wrongs antccedent to her

passed 20 tho crueltcs and violations Of faith
which had been practsed upon her since that war

manner prisoners under the amnesty the greater
portion were sent TO distant parts of the Russian
empire, and of the whole number only four had
returned TO Poland. Common soldiers ALSO who
were included in the amnesty, marched by
thousands to Siberia; the last accounts which had

day OF his Saints festival, and the Emp Mich
olas wrote on the sentence, in his hand, the
oggravating punishment that he must be sent into
Siberia on foot, chained to the bar of the common
soldiers. If this doubted it could be proved !
