POLAND.
Poor, PROSTATE, subjugated Poland,
the Ireland of the Continent, has been
making Il fruilless, bloodless effort ut a
revolution, or, us the failure of national
patriotism is always tcrmed-an insur-
rcctlon.
The little Republic of Cracow, which
is now in possession Of the Austrian
troops, has been the head quarters of this
unfortunate attempt to restore the ma
tionality of the Poles but the conspira-
! cy had extensive ramifcations in Prus-
sia, Russia, as we'll as Austria.
CRAcow OCCUPIED BY THE AUsTRiANs
-Subjoined is the official account of
the occupation Of Cracow, us drawn up
by Gen. Collin, Of the Austrian forces !:
CEAcow, March 4-Thc insurgents
retired from the city on the night Of the
I'd instant
The conditions Of which the Austrian
general received the capitulation of the
citizens Of Cracow were,
lst. That they should deliver up to
him'all tho known leaders Of the rebell-
ion who remained in the city, or point
on, 10 him their residences.
I'd. That total disarmament should
take place, and that all weapons should
be deposited in the castle before noon
on the 5th instant; and
Sd Any person, who: during the stay
Of the Austrians in Cracow, appeared
with weapons in his hands, or in whose
dwelling, arms of any kind should be
found, should be judged by court martial
within twcntyfour hours.
According to the Silcsian Gazette,
t that portion Of the insurgents who sur
rendered to the Prussians, were pro-
missed pardon on the condition of sub
mtting to the arrangements which may
be made in their regard by the three
protecting powers.
The Bresian correspondent of the
Wese Zeituny, states that it was gene
rally believed there on the 9th instant,
that the great body Of the insurgents
would retreat to the mountains of Gal
lacIa, and there commence guerrilla
warfare.
According to the same correspondent,
the Incorporation Of Cracow with the
Prussian monarchy is openly desired by
the citizens. The Mannheim Abend
Zcitung also expresses the opinion that
the Polish insurgents will retire to the
Carpathian mountains, and there act the
part O. the Circassans.
INDIA.
The latest accounts from the East
show that the condition Of the British
empire in that part Of the world is the
reverse of satisfactory. The blood which
flowed on the banks Of the Sutlej, on
the three memorable days in December
last, has been shed in vain.
The Sikhs have been punished, but
not subdued and they have returned
10 the conflict with increased numbers,
and apparently additional determination.
In the mean time, the interests of the
! next and succeeding Indian accounts.
will turn exclusively upon the Sikh war.
The March mail will bring the details
of another, perhaps several bloody en-
gagements between the British forces
and the Sikhs. The best must be hoped
for; but the worst is possible.
The hope which was entertained that
business on the Continent of Europe
would before this resume its steady and
regular course, after the stagnation
which prevailed so long, remains unfor-
tunately yet unfulfilIed.
