which 5000 cavalry, with i0f tield-peces have
advanced by Brody and Lemberg, upon the Car

Neither of the TWO last mentioned corps had up TO
the --latest accounts, penetrated into Hungary. Their
advances, consisting OF Cossacks, are pushed up
to the passes, with orders 10 AVOID partial encoun-

The guards, under the Czarowitch, have left Pc

operations, may be calculated at 100000 infantry,

The al-rulned palace of kasinir the Great, about
three miles distant from Cracow, Is converted into
powder magazine, where enormous, quantities OF
powder, prolectIles, and cartridges, have already
arrived. The churches and converts of the vic-
nifty are likewise converted into magazines for
conmissarat stores, of which immense quantities,
such as flour, rye oats, and biscuit arrive hourly,
either by rail or ordinary land carriage. 1t is cal
culated that the daily arrivals exceed 1000
cwt. Magazines, to an extent exceeding all
ordinary belief, and such only as Russia can
bring together, will be established at Cra-
COW. The hospital preparations are upon the
same immense scale. The great nunneries OF
Swiercynees and Wyzykli, with the Carmelite and
franciscan inconsistencies, have been converted into

they are old soldiers accustomed to long marches,

Their clothing is excellent and well fitted, and
their large great coats most useful, though perhaps
cumbersome. The greater part, however, are still
armed with flint lock muskets. The formations are
