POLAND.  FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT. CRACOW, Aug. 15.  The most important event of the last week in connection with tho Polish insurrection, is the circulation of a paper dated Moscow, July 29, and entitled, " Address from the Russian patriots to their Polish brethren," among the inhabitants of al: parts of Poland. This paper, although purporting  to be the production of the Russian patriots, is evidently the work of the Russian Government ; and while unmistakeably defining its policy towards the Western Powers, shows how formidable the insurrection is to Russia. The following extracts will give a tolerably clear idea of its meaning and tendency :  " Six months have now elapsed since a murderous struggle between kindred races has been raging in our common country, and in which neither your admirable bravery nor your perseverance and cellsacrifice have succeeded, even for a moment, in bending the power of Russia. Do not wonder, Polish brothers, that when you ignored your destiny and your real interest, which commands you to join us, our dearest Sovereign was forced to treat you with the utmost severity. For it is to him that Providence has entrusted the government of the Sclavonic peoples, of which you are one, in order that, after crushing, with their help, the chains of all our kindred races, he may enter upon the great work of resuscitating egotistical and doting Europe. We, sharing the generous sentiments of the Czar, hold out to you the hand of brotherhood and union) believing that your political reason will not allow you to reject it. Consider what are the fruits of the conduct you have hitherto pursued, so inconsistent with your destiny. You have shed your noblest blood in vain, and destroyed your prosperity. Influenced by intrigue, hopeless to conquer unaided, you have raised your sacrilegious hands against our common country, trusting only in the assistance of you/ supposed friends, who are using both your and our blood and your powerlessness and folly with cold calculation for their own profit. For what can you expect from those who, both before and now, never proved by acts the reality of their sympathy ? What do you expect from Austria, who when you, the liberators of Vienna, held out your hands to her for succour, only answered with the crocodile tears of a bigot; who repaid the wonderful generosity of Nicholas with ingratitude, and is now using you as au instrument for retarding the progress of Sclavonianism ? And, what from France, ruled by a monarch who strives to uphold an usurped throne and glory with falsehood and deceit ? Or from England, trifling with the destinies of nations, and desiring to prevent the fulfilment of the great destiny of the Sclavonians in the east at your cost, and without expending a single drop of her blood or a farthing of her money ?  ".We do not desire amalgamation with you, but union. In a Sclavonic state, united with us, is alone your salvation, your glory, and your freedom. In it alone will you find domestic happiness. Polish brothers! listen to our words—yield to the Sentence of Providence, give up your fatal dreams and your vain hopes, Europe will not dare to defy Russia to a mortal struggle in your behalf, for the Europe which during the past century by her silence consented to the destruction of your political existence, can only in 18G3 raise her voice to sanction a completed historical fact and definitively acknowledge the rights of Russia, thereby making your fate worse instead of better. Long live Russia, Poland, and Sclavonia, one, entire, powerful, and free."
