been known of the internal condition Of the

Our readers remember the insolent ad-
dress of the Russian Emperor, some months
ago, to deputation from the Polish Diet
of Warsaw. That address was at hrst
scarcely credited, on account OF the despotIc
terms in which it was couched. Ii however,
proved to be d true version, and 1t excited
the indignation of all liberal minded men in
Europe and America. That address has
been recently followed up by movement
which has attracted much attention IN Eu-
rope, and been noticed ut least by the Brit
ish Government 1t appears that body OF
troops of the three great northern powers

The protecting powers" on the nth OF Feb
ruary, entered Cracow and took possession
OF that GUY and the territory Of 'rhe Repub-
lie" The invading corps was under the
command Of the Austrian General Trau-
menSieinLurg.
1t would seem that the three powers had
previously demanded of the Senate Of Cra-
COW, the expulsion of certain citizens Of the
Republic who had been distinguished in the
attempted Polish Revolution, and that the
Senc,e had neglected to have them expelled
The object Of the invasion was TO consum-
mate the expulsion as soon rs the army
arrived, those unfortunate citizens, 10 the
number of lS9. were Immediately put under
arrest, and it was supposed that they would
be transported 10 America. A military Pro-
clamaion was made in reference to the de-
mand Of expulsion in which il was said -

On this intelligence reaching England in
the House Of Commons, on the Isl OF March.
Sir STAFFORD Canning called the attention Of
Lord Palmerston to the subject, and asked
for information. He alluded to the Treaty
of Vienna, which forbade the entrance of an
armed force into that capital, and inquired il
the Government intended 10 notice the trans
action.
In reply, Lord Palmerson admitted that
they had read in the newspapers similar
statements, bot that the government had re-
ceived no official information on the subject
AT the same time Lord p said it was not
improbable that the three powers had taken
possession of the place, in violation Of the
treaty oil Vienna He added that the gov
ernment would direct their attention TO the
subject, but trusted the House would not at
that moment insist on his saying what fur

The effect of this intelligence and of the
language of Lord Palmerston, was TO de-
press the London stock market from an an
prehension that the unprincipled and domi.
neerlng policy of Russia. backed by Prussia
and Austria, would tend to general war.
