another reason, they will not appoint any

Russia and the Polish Catholics.
A SHOCKING STORY.

A correspondent from Russian Poland
writes to the Csas, of Cracow, that some
serious disturbances have taken place in
the district of Chelm in consequence of the
attempts of the authorities to compel the
Polish peasants (who belong to the Roman
Catholic faith) to attend the services Of the
Russian Church. At the beginning of Jan.
uary the Imperial Commissioners called
together the villagers and Informed them
that the Gear, having emancipated them
from their subsection to the landowners,
had now determined to confer d further
Catholic practices in their churches, and
making the services comfortable in all
respects to the Russian rite. They added
that the Gar trusted the peasants would
accept these changes with gratitude /; but
in all the villages the unanimous reply was
that the peasantry want no changes, that
they will not have anything to do with
the Russian popes. and that they positively
refuse to attend any Russian services.
Notwithstanding this, the Russian rite
was introduced in all the churches on the
18th of January, the Russian new year.
This SO provoked the peasants that in
some places they ill-treated the clergy and
locked up the churches, SO that for several
days Divine service could not be performed
at all. At length it was determined to put
down the opposition by military force. A
flying column of two companies of infau-
try and a sotnia of Cossacks was sent to
the village of Drelow, where number of
peasants had collected from the neighbor
ing villages to protest against the new
decree. Soon after their arrival the
troops escorted the priest to the parish
church, but the peasants surrounded the
building and refused to make way for him.
The colonel who commanded the columu
then ordered his men to fire. They first
fired in the air, but finding this Intellectual,
volley was sent into the midst of the
crowd. Three peasants fell dead, and
about twenty were wounded. The peas
ants then attacked the soldiers nearly all
the officers were wounded, a Cossack was
killed, and it was only after an hours des-
perate fighting that the troops got the up
per hand. The ringleaders in the struggle
were sent to the nearest town, and the
rest of the Inhabitants Of the village were
turned out into an adjourning field, where
both men and women were logged, the
former receiving fifty lashes each and the
latter twenty. Similar fights between the
soldiers and the peasantry have taken
place at Kreczew, Pratulin, and SEustki,
and the total number of killed and wound
ed was, according to the Last accounts,
upwards of seventy. The peasants still
persist in their opposition to the intro
duction of the Russian rite, and nearly all
the churches in the district are either
closed or without congregations, the people
even burying their own dead in order to
avoid the necessity of attending Russian
fu neral service.
