Rnssia,s share of Poland.

1t is only necessary to glance at map on
which the Polish acquisitions Of Russia are
marked, in order to comprehend the Emperor'e
vital interest in this renewed attemptof brave
people to reasseTt their nationality. The fret
partition of Poland, in l772, gaveto Russia the
eastern part Of Lithuania, between the rivers
Drutsch, Dwina and Dnieper, embracing about
tRenty-six thousand square miles. AT the same
time Austria acquired about thirty thousand,
and Prussia six or seven thousand square miles
of Polish territory In the second partition. In
1893, Russia secured eighty-four thousand
square miles, including the western part OF
Lithusnia, the Ukraine, aud most Of Volhynis,
and Prussia fifteen thousand; and by the last
partition, in 1795, she became possessed of fifty
thousand square miles more, making the river
Niemeht the boundary between Russian and
Prussian Poland, and the river Bug between
Russian and Austrian Poland. By these sue
cessIye dismemberments Of the unfortunate
kingdom Russia secured nearly one-half Of Its
former territory.
In 1907 Napoleon caused the Grand Duchy
of Warsaw TO be constructed ont of the Prus-
sian Polish territory acquired by the second and
third partitions, embracing thirty eight thous-
and SQUARE miles. At length, BY the Congress
at Vienna, In 1915, this Was all made over TO
Russia, with the exception OF the Grand Duehy
of Posen, which was restored TO Prussia; GER
tain parts of Galioia given to Austria, and the
city Of Crscow, which was made tree and neu-
trail Republic under the protectorate Of the
three powers, who had already go faithfully and
effsctually cared for all the rest Of Poland.--
This little morsel Was leftsapparently for po-
liteness sake, when the three powers rose from
their feast ontPolan6.' Yet in 1886 greedy

The Kidnapping Case.

Before the Supreme Court of Ohio, In session
in this city, HocEIse HusTER, attorney for Col.
SrAuaAroH Bliss, indicted In the Fairfield Court
Of Common Pleas for kidnapping Dr.. E. B.
oIDs, argued, on Tuesday, March 81, the do.
fendant's petition for the transfer Of the case
from the Fairfield Court to the United States
Cou,s at Cincinnati. Judge THuRnAs made an
argument agsinst granting the prayer Of the
petitioner. The petition had been oyerrulsd
BY the Fairfield Common Pleas, and was taken
up to the Supreme Court. The latter Court,
upon the hearing Of the case. granted what is
called Ia legal phrase an alternative mandsmus,
rsquiring the Fairfield Court to accept sureties
Of the defendant, BLISS, until 1t shall be shown
Why she case should NOS BE- transferred to the
uaited States Court. The writ was made re.
turnsble on thefrss Monday Of December next,
the earliest day at which the Court could hear
the case.

AuslFia returned and voraolously gotbled Il IN !.
when cvFybody'a back was turned. When Ed
rope began TO gruuble at her greediness, sho
urged the neceHaities Of the case, for neither
sne nor the other powers could dlgest in peace
wnat they had already devoured, 60 long as thia
miserable fragment OF the feast remained. "
Hence 1t happens that Russia has In her pos.
session to-day Polish Russia, with territory of
one hundred and sixty thousand square miles,
about four times as large as the State of Penn
sylvAniA; and the kingdom Of Poland, % mark !
cd on later maps, with the territory Of forty
nine thousand square miles, about as largo as
the State Of New York. The former has
population Of eight, the latter Of five and half
millions. A clear idea of the extent of terri
tory may be obtained by noticing that It Is al
most as large as Ohio, Pennsylvania, Maryland,
Delaware, New Jersey, New York and the
New England States, with population nearly
equal TO one-haf of the entire population of
the United States.
IL s, therefore, with no surprise that we no.
tlce the uneasiness which movement among
such people gives to Russia, and to all of the
European States. II may be expected that Rus
ss will summon oil her powers to put down the
insurreotion. In lS30-3I the force ordered to
Poland for the suppression of the revolution
was said to be two hundred thousand, with
three hundred pieces of cannon, while the Poles
bad only forty-dve thousand, with less than
hundred guns. The movement of the ferces
OF the Emperor give an earnest of what may
be expected Already a division of infantry
and another of cavalry have been sent from
Lithusnia to reinforce the army of Poland.
There is likely to be some temporary disad-
vantsges to the empire from the fact that the
army of Russia has been greatly reduced dur
Ing the past year. The more widely the re-
bellion epreads the more this reduction of the
army will embarrass the Russians and further
the interests of the Poles. In any event, how.
ever, the odds will be fearfully against them.
Russia has an organized Government, with all
the machinery, political, financial and military,
In working order. Poland has had TO start
without these essential auxiliaries. She has,
however, taken early steps to supply this i'm
portant element of success. II viii take time,
however, and Russia has the advantage for the
present, and will not fail to use it to the ut.
most. She has ewes been eager 10 graap new
territory, and always exceedingly slow to relaE
her hold. And she will scarcely consent to
surrender, except under the strongest compul-
sion, the command OF territory 80 wide as
Poland, and one 80 long and eagerly coveted
by her. I.lI

The Cleveland Leader shouts With demoniac
joy over the idea thstthe Government is about
organizing 10 the Western States military
force to awe and keep down the free expression
of public opinion, and, especially, to deprive
Democrats and Conservatives, whom, in the
slang of its party, il calls "Copperheads, !" from
exercising the common rights of citizens. The
Leader says:
The Government has a full conviction OF the
necessity of the case, and has authorized the
Organization Of half dozen regiments in Illi-
nois for police service at bone, and from what
we know Of come of the commanding officers,
we can tell the Coppcrheads that they had bet

tornado, than the retributivo wrath Of these

The following is from the special correspond
ence Of the Cincinnati Commercial:
BLACK Bayou, VIA CAIRO, March 81.
The expedition through Steele's and Black
Bayou, into the Upper Yszoo, is failure. Ad-
miFal Porter succeeded in getting through both
bayous with the gunboats, and proceeded
twenty five or thirty miles further in Deer and
Rolling Fork, when be encountered a small
force Of rebels, who so annoyed him with sharp
shooters and by placing obstructions In the
channel, that further progress was impossible
without the cooperation of infantry, which
came up the next day. The enemy had in the
meantime cut trees in the stream, making it
impossible. They annoyed the gunboats other
wise, and seemed to be gathering in consider
able force. Reinforcements of infantry were
matched rapidly to their assistance on Sunday,
and came up with the beleaguered gunboats on
Monday. The latter were completely hcmmed
In by obstruotions in front and rear, and would
have fallen an easy and speedy prey to the reb
els, unless destroyed. Skirmisbng continued
all day, when, the rebels being reinforced, the
gunboais were Withdrawn. The gunboat feet
commenced its retreat to-day. The whole
force has re,embarked on traneports, near the
head of Black Bayou, for return to Young's
Point. The enemy's force was probably five
thousand, With heavy artillery. Federal loss,
ten or twelve privstes killed and wounded, in-
cluding Sullivan, an engineer on a tug, killed
by q SMELL. The rebel loss is unknown, but
supposed to be inconsiderable.
Admiral Porter and Gen. Sherman respective
y, commanded the naval and land forces.
