The second fci more disastrous. - The
terror of the Russians, “The Cannon
Provider," in ft word, the veteran Oiift-
nicki hero committed his first end las*-
military error, and loft himself and bit
-hole Division. Nevertheless, the mala
army continued to be aneeessful, and
drove the Russian Imperial Guard-out «f
ihekingdoin. Major HordyasM consid
ers his general’s operations st this stag#
of the revolution as unequalled m the tm
esis of warfare, save by Napoleon’s brilli
ant campaign in Italy. Skrynecki then
returned to defend Warsaw ag.iuu the
maiu Russian army under Ditbitseb, de
feating that general on his way,at Oxtroo-
lemka, inn most obstinate and sanguinary
battle. '
Shortly after, a very alarming conspi
racy was discovered in the capital. Its
object wa, to liberate and arm the Russi
an prisoners, of whom there were a host in
Warsaw. Several distinguished officers,
who had been considered true patriots,
were implicated in this treason, the effect
of which Was that the people lost heart,
.nil were no longer willing to tru.t any
one, notyren the commander-in-chief- a
When, therefore, tidings arrived that, ow
ing to the misconduct, perhaps trsheoft
of his generals, the army of Lithuania had •
a terrible eystem of espieoage substituted
in its steafl. There were nine hundred
spies in Warsaw alone. The citizens were
arrested on the bare word of a vile spy ,uu5
condemned without trial or hearing. No
expense” or pains were spared to corrupt
th* nation. Thy fountains of mural and
social life ujere poisoned, or choked up.— .... - ^

of this proceeding was, that the eooaeit

and. will it be believed!—Married women
were incarcctatcd for repelling the crimin
al advances of Russian Generals. The
most rninous Ihonopalies were granted to
individual favorites, and the whole land
groaned under a general tyatem ol extor
tion. Such was the tyranny which the
Pules at the last rose to resist!

Clergymen, women and children, took up
arms. l\fter the first successes, the mul-'

The first act of the Polish patriots, af
ter they had expelled the chemy, was ex
tremely injurious. It was, indeed, neccs<
•ary, in a time of such emergency, toe
lcct a dictator, but they chose a* p rson
wholly unqualified to wield (he suprtme
power. The eventual effect of this error,
ought to be a lesson ta all that suppose
that military talents alone qualify a man
for civil ofltcb, or think that the chief
gistracy should be made the reward of
military services. The Polss chbso for
their dictator. General Chlopicki, a good
and brave man, but who proved Incompe

It was undoubtedly his best policy fo have

and dilatory^ that the people took the af

much valuable time was lost, and many
important advantages were relinquished.
1 Aajor llordy nski relates these errors,an
explains their jiqnsequenccs in the most 1
satisfactory manner. At last, Chlopicki
was deprived of his office, and Pnnce
Rndzivil took command ofthe army. As
