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.

They gave quarter to the Russian troops who opposed them in arms. Two only of the Polish officers who proved faith less to.their country, fell by tho popular Indignation. Persons tfnd property were religiously respected. No individual was molested unnecessarily, nor was nuy pri vate house ot simp forcibly entered. La dies satal tlie windows by which the insur gents were inarching, without|fear or dan gcr. What mokes this forbearance more remarkable, is that the whole seem to have been excited to a degree of enthusiasm, which could not have admit ted of iocrc.ise. They fell upon very su perior bodies of.R ussian regulars with their bayonets, without the smallest hesitation Clergymen, women and children, took up arms. l\fter the first successes, the mul-' titude kneeled down in the street, as one man, and swore ta liberate Poland or die. In'about ten hours theyhad entiicly clear ed the capital of the Russian army. * 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 tent to conduct ths revolution wisely.— It was undoubtedly his best policy fo have speedily organised an army, and to*have sent a division into Lithuania, which wu» ripe for revolt, lie did neither, llts or ganization of the army wnsfro Ineffective and dilatory^ that the people took the af fair into their own hands, and filled the rank by voluntary enrollments. Thus 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 it was now too late to assume the offen sive, as the dictator should have done,and the Polish army was too ’small to de fend lh* fthnU SnnljM |» area concentrate, anti by a retreat, lighting, to draw tile army to tho ricinity of Warsaw. There it wasretulvetl to sttka (bo-fortune of Pnlanil on a decisive battle. ' The Polish fore* amounted |n 45.000 men and 1HJ pieces of cannon. Marshal Dicbilsch took th* field against the'army with 200,000 men and 3w pieces. Wc need not lirfte.follow Jloj. Ilordynski Into minute accounts of the almost superhu man efforts of the Volos. Let it suffice that “from the 10th of February to the' td of March, thirteen sanguinary brittle* were fought withthe'enemy. betides twiffe that number of small skirmishes,in which that enemy was uniformly .dsfeated, and a fntl thtrn mid of Iti* fnAHanniti'ittatait '* claiming their entire confidence in Skrzj- nechi. __ . „ Major Ilordynski thinks that tho open- - lions ot Skruynerki. after this period,we,c not the most judicious. At any ratsrtho commander-in-chief wot deprived of his * command. Just then, when the main body of tite l*alisli army was absent under its new commander, in order to sttsck a de tached ltpssian division, the main Russi an army appeared before Warsaw, which fell, after *» Mootjy ilrfenre. Sued; is the outline of Maj. Hordyntlti'a book, which is just what it pretends tn lie, and nothing else. Ileuntsirs more infor mation on the affairt of Poland '.hao we have ever been able to gain from other snarers, collectively. The major has also given us several vevy spirited ,ketches of distinguished public diameters, and a suc cinct account of I.ilhnania.
