LANGIEwICZ: HIS CAMP AND COMPANIONS.
When Gen. Langewicz issued his manifesto
he marched in three columns from Goszcza,
and a few hours after he had disappeared large
bodies of Russian troops advanced towards
that place.
few days ago an Austrian subject visited
Langiewicz in his headquarters and his ac-
count OF what he saw and heard is extremely
interesting. All the men under the immedi-
ate command OF the Polish dictator appear to
be in excellent health and spirits. In general
they are in the prime of life, but several gray
bearded patriots of the year 1881 were in the
camp at Goszcza. Langiewicz is a small,
spare man, appears to be about thirty years
OF age; his hair is brown; his eyes large,
dark, and well formed; his demeanor quiet
and reserved. He was somewhat lame; but
the Austrian had no opportunity of inquiring
whether his lameness arose from recent
wound. Langiewicz is very devout, and he
advises his men to keep their consciences in
good order, as there is hardly moment in
the day in which they are not exposed to dan
ger.
In the camp at Goszcza were Jiezeranski,
Czeszewski, and other distinguished parti-
sans. and Young lady named Pmstavivtav
who is dressed like a man and fights like one.
HIS BODY GUARD AND FELLOW SOLDIERS.
A correspondent of the Lemberg journal,
who has visited Langiewicz in his camp, writes
as follows =
AT the entrance of the generals residence,
stand two powerful sthemen, with their weap-
ons crossed. These are the body guard of
the insurgent general. On the left is cham
Der OF moderate dimensions, In the center of
which is Il table OF long and oval shape, and
around this sit and stand many men, who car
ry on SO lively discussion that one scarcely
cOmprehends its import. Some of these are
strong and wiry, others are in the bloom of
youth; but among those present there are
weather-beaten men, with gray boards and
and locks. AT the end of the table, somewhat
sidewalks, sits Gen. Langiewicz, engaged in
writing. The noise disturbs him not. In this
respect according to the report of those
around nm, he possesses much presence of
mind. He writes, and at the same time an
swers many questions, and also distributes
various orders to his officers, who continually
come and go. His answers were short and
decided, as were his orders. At last he raised
his head little, and | could observe him
more narrowly. Persons entirely disinterest-
ed would declare his appearance to be quite
an ordinary one, but he pleased me on the
instant.
will describe him as briefly as possible
He is of small stature, something over thirty
years of age, thin but muscular; the head in
proportion, but with weather-be though
fresh complexion, dark hair and somewhat
spare beard the eyes dark and large, but
very beautiful; his entire expression is mild
and decided, as with most thinkers. On his
head he wore his sapphire colored four cor
nered cap, with dark lambs wool trimming
and white feather. He wore also large
Polish hose and dark fur trimmed cloak.
He wore also tri-colored SASH by which
each OF his officers were equally distinguished,
while some were also ornamented with white
and red sashes.
latter my interview with Langiewicz be-
gan to look around me. 1t is difficult to de-
scribe all who were present. | became ac-
quainted with Jezioranski, Crieszewski, and
ever SO many more, who have already made
for themselves name known to fame. Among
others was Miss Pustowojtow, who appeared
to be young and delicate brunette. She is
attired in mans apparel, has been present at
all the battles and on horseback flies like
bird. She is generally beloved and respected
on account of her bravery and cheerfulness.
In conclusion, to complete the picture, must
mention the capuchin who serves as field
chaplain and magazine man, and who, not
outstanding his mutifarious duties, is ever
polite, agreeable, and cheerful. On the
whole, the visit to Langiewicz has made a
very favorable impression on me. l did not
lind in him the contente lness of resignation,
but that arising from energy.
THE AREA OF THE REVOLUTION,
vienna (March ID Correspondence of London Times
About one hundred and fifty versts to the
east of the great fortress of Brzesc, in Lith-
uania, is a town called Pinsk. which for a
short time was in the hands of the insurgents.
After having appropriated to themselves sixty
thousand silver roubles, which were the prop
erty of the state the insurgents withdrew from
the place and retired to the woods.
The insurrection is now spread over thirty
five thousand English square miles, an area
half as large as the empire of Austria. 1t is
here rumored that the peasants in Finland are
beginning to display desire to get rid of the
heavy yoke Of Russia.
About a fortnight ago four young Poles
were shot at Plock, and after they had been
thrown into grave which had previously been
prepared, one of them was heard to murmur,
Jesus and Mary, be with me-" As consider
able bodies of insurgents are within few
English miles of Warsaw assertions from that
city are very frequent.
