Russia. - The westphaiian Mercury
says, several sisters Of charity have lately
arrived at Berlin, having been conducted
to the frontiers of Prussia from their con.
vent at wilma, in Russia. which has been
suppressed. They will return to their
principal convent in France. They were
put under the charge of c ossacks, Of whose
treatment they make severe complaints.
lrALy.--Letters from Leghom state that
Austria is so well aware Of the dangerous
position to which the evils of pon,ifical
mlsgovernmeni have brought the Papal
States, that it has opened negotiations
with the Holy See, with a view to the
secuarlzation. as far as possible, Of tina,
Government. The Court of Rome resists.
and will eoDsiuuc TO do so, and il is said
that the Austrian Government, foreseeing
that circumstance, has addressed the
French Cabinet, 70, invite it to Join with
Austria, Naples, and Tuscany, to oblige
The Pope TO make such reforms as the safe.

species OF warlike prophet, who has for
several years governed and led to battle
the Lcsghis, the Koubitchcs, and other
Mussulman tribes Of Daghcstan. He is
the Abd-el-kader Of those countries. The
Russian army Of Caucasus, 6crimated

The Russian government
has likewise had the imprudcnce to send
thsre number of Poles, who have almost
all deserted. These Poles have instructed
the mountaineers in the art of war, and
have given them ideas which arc rsow bear.

now possess cannon which they captured
from the Russians, and they are gaining
victories which from time 10 time astonish
Europe. The Circassian war has NOW
lasted more than sixty years.
