rs motciless and sava*c as this practice may appear to us, it was Chris tian, t was humane compared with o;*rs, th< ■ rs sought o ily the life-blood, and that Otdv of their enemies; ours seeks the blood of souls, and that of our own citi zens, and friends and neighbors. Their avarice was satiated with a few inches of the scalp, and the death inflicted was o ten a sudden aad easy one; ours pro d-.c-s h death that lingers; and not con te .t with the lives of our fellow citizens, it r.fles their pockets. It revels in rnpine and robberv; it sacks whole towns and villages; it lays waste fields and vine yards ; it riot? on domestic peace, and virtue. and happiness; it sets at varience the husband and the wife; it causes the parent to forsake the child, and the child to curse the parent; it tears asunder the Strongest bonds or society; it severs the teaderest ties of nature.

GREENOCK, March 22. Poln > I. —Extract of a letter in the Mor al i_ Cara ncle:—“J had concluded my letter wiK-ti 1 received the most gratify ing intelligence from Poland! 1 have learnt from an gye-witness that the Rus si iis .ire ot conquerors—that the Poles are .'o itident and prepared for the enemy —that the moral state of the Polish army is the finest i uaginable—that the Rus sians fear a;iotl* r general combat—that the Poles will not surrender—and that the cause is not only not lost, but is look ing better than ever.” A long official bulletin has been pub lshed at Warsaw of the battle of tire 25th of February. It states that the cause of the retreat of the Poles to Warsaw was owing to the thaw having commenced, and that the General feared the breaking up of the ice would have carried away the bridge, preventing all communica tion, an 1 depriving the army from receiv ing supplies. It estimates the loss of the Russ-ms, since they entered Poland, at 39,0 Ml naan hors de combat, in killed, Won..i?e.l, prisoners and sick. The Pol ls - ir»av has taken up a position round Wars rw guarding the Vistula and the bri-lg,* of l’raga, waiting with impatience the signal for new combat. LONDON, March 19. G'-rm in papers to the 12th rnst. reach ed us this morning, hut they do not com ma in: Ue any material fact.—According to a letter from Cracow, the Polish army h i I [gated the right hank of the Vistula on • Ist inst. after setting fire to Praga, bu v b'-In.OOO men to defend the tete dt -p mt. The number of wounded men in V rrsaw is stated to amount to 18,000, and 'here is scarcely a private house which does not contain some.—These pipers lo not give any further accounts respecting the insurrection in Italy. A private letter from Milan, however, says that the Austrian troops had not yet •entered Parma and Modena. It is stated from Mayence, that the Plenipo tentiary sent from the Netherlands upon the subject of the free navigation of the Rh i te, had yielded to the objections made bv the French Government; and it was considered probable that the trenty with that object would be speedily con cluded- i j FRANCE. The French cabinet has been modified in pretty nearly the sense anticipated by the Alessager des Chambres of the 13th mst. M. i aritte has quitted the Cabinet, and is replaced as President ot the Coun cil by M. Casitnir Perrier. As Minister of Finance, he is suec«*eded by Baron Louis. Montalivet, Soult, and Sebasti ani remain. The retirement of M. La fitte has been long expected, for how could be, after the public acknowlegment of his pecuniary difficulties, be consider ed a fit person to hold the important of fices of President of the Council and Minister of France? M. Casiinir Perrier is also a banker, and he has been a spec ulator—so far his appointment would lie objectionable, hut M. Perrier is a man of undoubted wealth, the owner of large estates, and the head of an extensive slaem engine manufactory, so that he is deeply interested as land owner, and a member of what the French call “la classe industrielle,” in the maintenance of peace with other countries, and in the repression of internal faction. M. Per rier, therefore, appears to be a very tit President of the Council at the present moment, altho’ we do not think that he has energy enough to retain that post long in a country in which Ministerial changes are almost as frequent as lunar revolutions. Baron Louis is a man of experience as a financier, without much pretension as a politician. Ilis private and public characters are alike respecta ble. M. de Rigny is already advantage ously known to both countries. He is a man of energy—an enemy to anarchy, but a true friend to rational liberty. Al together the change bodes no ill to France: whether it will produce much good is another question. POLAND. By a letter from Frankfort, it appears, that up to the last accounts the Russians had not ventured to renew their attacks; but the resources of General Diebitsch are so numerous, that no reasonable hojie of success can he entertained by the Poles. Surrounded on all sides by enemies— without the means of recruiting their loss of men, or adding to their material—their situation is desperate; hut dismay, evCn in ruin, does not seem to have reached them. Their heroism is of a brighter hue than that of the best days of the an cient Romans, for they had the pride of past triumph and the fair chance of new conquests, to encouage them. The Poles have only the remembrace or glorious de feats iu past straggles for indpendence, and the prospect of annihilation in that which is now waging. It must be true patriotisin, indeed, which leads them to shed their own blood, in the hope, and not a vain one, that their heroism will one day rise up in judgment against their oppressors, and prepare the way for the freedom of a succeeding generation. NETHERLANDS. The Belgians are proceeding in the career of independeuce. The Regent has issued a proclamation to the inhabit ants of Luxembourg, in which he tells them that he will keep his oath to preserve the integrity of Belgium. “We began our revolution,” says the President, “in spite of the treaties of 1815: we will fin ish it in spite of the protocols of London. Luxemburghers! remain united and firm. In the name of Belgium accept the assur ance that your brethren will never aban don you.” It remains to be seen in what way the new French Ministers will at tempt to effect a settlement. LONDON, March 16. The Bombay Courier devotes two columns to the question of receiving in India the cotton twist of the Pacha of Egypt and the manufactures of the Uni ted States at the present duties, or wheth er they should not he prohihted (bv high duties,) to give to the mother country the entire trade. The competition is represented to be unfavorable to this country and the Bombay merchants are already sending memorials to govern ment on this subject. The Bombay Courier concludes the long dissertation with a protest against new duties “that the East Indians are not to be taxed to support the starving manufacturers of Lancashire and Yorkshire.” In this liberal and enlightened period the spiritual Sovereign of the Catholic world has shown that lie can appreciate his situation and his age, The prede cessors of the present Pope Gregory XIV. have always shown a reluctance to con firm the nomination of Bishops made by the new Governments of America, from the double fear of dipleasing the Court of Spain and of giving a sanction to revo lutionary principles. His Holiness, dis regarding these scruples, proclaimed, in a consistory held at Rome on the 23d ulf Bishops to the sees of Puebla de los An glelo, Guadalajara, Valladolid, Durango, and Sonora, in the united states of Mexico, appointed by the Government of that Republic. HOUSE OF COMMONS, March 15. Custom Duties Hill. The house resolved itself into a com mittee on the customs duties bill. The Chancellor of the Exchequer said that it was his duty now to carry into ef fect hts proposition for imposing a dutv on imported cotton. This duty would not compensate for the loss which the rev enue would sustain from the repeal of the duty on printed calicoes. However, when he considered the improved state of the revenue at present as compared with last year, he had no hesitation in saying that the amount of revenue would he amplv sufficient to meet the exigencies of the state He was aware that it was diffi cult to argue a priori that a tax was n 1 good thing, but he hoped that und< r the I circumstances of the case, the house would permit him to impose this duty.— He concluded with moving that “ It is the opinion of this committee that a duty of 5s lOd be charged upon every cwt. of cotton wool, and waste cotton wool, im pelled from foreign countries"—agreed to. (From the Monitrur of Sunday March 15) Official Part. “ROYAL ORDINANCE. Louis Phillip, dec. &c. On the report of our Minister of War, we have ordained and ordain as follows : Art. 1.

From the Portland Advertiser, April.a Wonderful Escape. —Mr. Joseph Ad am-. was last night awakened by the sound of a loud noise which resembled scuffling, groans, like one in the ag onies of death, and tremendous crash of Glass in the third story of his house (Danforth-street) all of which appeared to come from the chamber where his son, about 13 years of age slept. He a* rose from his bed to ascertain the cause of this disturbance. His first sushicious were that some fierson or persons had broken into the house, who were at tempting to commit murder or to plun der property. Air. Adams went up stairs as soon aa possible into the chatnper occupied, the room in some disturbance, and the win dow sash broken to pieces. Looking out of the window, he saw his child stand ing on being spoken to anwserd in his u sual tone of voice as thouhg nothing had happened. The father ran down stairs immediately, and found the hoy bleed ing in both arms, approaching the front door to enter the house. The first words that struck the ears of the agonised pa rent were “father my arms are broken.” The boy was immediately taken into the house; a physician was culled; and on ex amination it appeard that the only injury sustained was the laceration of the fleshy part of both arms! The account that the son gives, is, that while dreaming, it appeared chat some person had come into Ins cham ber with the intention of murdering him. Affrighted he jumped out of bed and seemed to defend Ininself for a while with a chair, and finding this defence un succesful, and the cssailaut pressing on ward with greater force, he made an at tempt to escape by the window. First, he run his arm through the glass but the hole not being large enough to jump through, he took the chair, and beating the whole sash to pieces, un mediatly jumped out of the third story window to the ground. Strange to tell not a hone was fractured. Though he fell on a picket gate, and though the gate was literally broken to pieces, yet the only injury lie sustained was the lacer ation ofhis arms. He is now doing well.
