WILLIAM NJ SoMERvILLE.
On Tuesday the Lord Lieutenant received the
address of the magistrates, requesting him to
place Dublin under the provisions of the Crime
and Outrage Prevention Act His Excellency
declined accedng TO this request. He said the

1t was far better that it should be pu: down by

Prince Czartoryski has addressed letter 10
Count Arnim, at Berlin, full of disappointment
at the Justification of all the hopes held out bv
the Prussian Government of the restoration of
Poland. He has quilted Berlin "with heavy
heart from the disappointment ofthese bright an
ticipations." The reports from this unhappy

BREsLAu, April 25.-The Gazeta PoIska gives
the following intelligence from Warsaw "a
conspiracy among the military having been dis
covered here, the officers of the Warsaw rarri-
son, who we're arrested, have already been tried
by count martial, and four of them were shot in
the citadel. Throughout the kingdom of Poland
the peasants are said 10 have been authorized to
deliver up their lords of the manor to the gend-
arms if there is the slightest intmation of an in

In Bohemia, the dssentons between the Scla-
