The Russian troops are charged with'
committing great atrocities at Pultowy,’
at the command of their oflicers. The
spirit manifested by the Poles; and their
government, reminds usof their best dn_v.u,!

in the result of the war. |

POLAND,
The following important and affecting

published by the Government of l’nluud:'
ADDRESS TO 'I'LE PEOPLE OF POLAND.
“Conntrymen—-Already the combat for
our existence, for our hiberty, and for our
independence, has begun; itis perhaps
the last. Our first fixed purpose s glori
ously to conquer or to die; and we have
sworn, that it'it should please Providence
to permnt us to be subdued, like the Jews
alter the destruction of Jerusalem, we
will never cease to be Poles. We swear!
now that we will nde our nationality deep
in our hearts from the eves of our enc
mies—hut that never will a member of
our great but unfortunate nation ynite
himselt with our enemies, either by Llood
or by friendship—that never shall want
or contempt bring us or our latest de
scendants to deny Poland—Dbut that we
will look upon one another as brothers,
Lelp one another in toil—-and, in the,
midst of misfortune and in misery, live
upon the recollections of the past & pres
ent, and preserve the moral presence for
ever, and rather disperse overthe face of
the carth *ian langui=h in slavery. May
thosge Powers who are favourably to ns at
at least obtain this nmch——that afier our
fall we may be permitted to leave the sa
cred land of our fathers with our posses
sions & goods. The Diet <hall preseribe
the form of'an oath. T'he Diet shall take at
with the Polish people; and shall order it
(o be read from the pulpit, The Mims
ter of Foreign ARairs shall address notes
to England and France, exhorting those
Powers, that, in the event of a defeat,
ihe remains of our nation, as well as the
prisoners, shall be set at liberty, and per
mitted to leave our fatherland, profaned
by the enemy, soaked by the blood of the
Poles, and strewed with their bones—
that we may scll without hindrance our
posscesions and goods, and carry with
us what we can take awav, Those Pow

EXTRACT OF[A LETTER FROM PUTOWY,
(From the Oicial Journal of Warsaw, of the 7th. ]
- “We have been witnesses to the acts
of barbarism, which certainly ought not
to have been expeeted in Furope in a
war inthe 19th century, The Russiuns,
who entered Putowy, pillaged the hou
ses, set fire to the buildings; violated the
women, and made prisoners of the men,
& this without anything to enrage them,
the inhabitants haviog furnished them
during their stay with all that they deman
ded. It is thus that the fine promises
contatned m their Proclamations are real
ized, And were these horrors commit
ted by Kalmues or Boshkivs, or even by
wregular soldiery? Not at all; it was
the regular troops who committed thesoe
excesses by the express orders of thew
commanders, They revenged thew
selves upon those who a few days previ
ously had been witnesses to their fhght
when they were defeated by Col. Lar
owski, The next day was devoted to the
completion of the ruin of the town, and
the pillage of the castle, Lut they did not
long escape the vengeauce of heaven,
for they were completely defeated by the
corps of General Dwernicki, which very
soon arrived. Our columns were led by
the Curate of Wiostowice, a respectable
old man, bearing a cross instead of a ban
ner, and our yéung warriors tought with
enexampled courage, despising every
danger, and even, in the midst of a most
murderous fire, making their way through
the windows of the houses where their
cnemies had taken refuge. All the la
dies who were at the Castle in the midst
of this terrihle combat were prepared for
death; they, however, put on their ball
dresses) and awaited the issue of the bhat
tle. Providence blessed our etlorts—-the
invaders were repulsed with great loss;
hut previous to retreating, in order to be
revenged for having been prevented from
pillaging and destroying the Castle, they
directed two charges of artillery amony
the females that were inoit. We still
hear the sound of cannon. Many Rus
sian prisoners have passed through the
town, and our soldiers, who escort them,
say that a dreadful alarm prevails among
the whole corps of Kreuatz,
“General Szembeek was thrown down
with his horse, by a sudden attack made
by the enemy’s cavalry, but rcoverng
himselt at the instant, he fired hiis earbine,
killed several Russians, and resumed the
command of his corps; without the least
wound,
SOUTTCIAL POLEETD BULLETIN OF 'THL
LATEACTION NEARGROCHOW.”
“Atter the battle of the 19th and 20th
February, the enemy oceupied a strong
posttion, and covered by the forests, re
pared s cousiderable losses by nume
rous remforcements, whilst the National
army encamped in the plain & the ficlds,
which its courage had recently so brave
ly defended. ‘
“T'he numerons corps which Prince
Szachowski, which arrived on the 25th
from Soroch, attacked our left wing com
manded by General Matachowski and
Zangkowski, and obtained posscgsion of
the village of Biotolzha. General Kru
howiski, commanding the lelt wing, ar
rived towards the evening with the brig
ade of Genera)l Getgud., The attack of
the enemy was checked by a combat,
which lasted till the evening. The next
morning, the 25th, a very obstinate con
test took place upon our left, where Gen
ernl Kruckowickl attacked Prince Sza
chowski. At nine the corps of Rosen,
aad of Pahlen, under the command of
Field Marshal Diebitsch, suppoited by a
numerous artillery, commenced a gener
al attack on our right wing, commanded
by General Chloyieki, This wing com
prised on the right the division of Gen,
Rhrzynecki; in the rear and alittle to the
lett, were stationed parties of eavairy un
der General Uminskt and Labionsky, In
front of the attack the brigade of Gen
eral Rohland occupied an important post
i a small wood, and it was reinforeed
by a part of the division of General Zy
miniski, and the artillery of Generals
Szembek and Shrzyncecki, in order to be
enpabled the better to sustajn the fire of
the enemy’s artillery, which was very
superior in number to ours, and had its
batteries on the ramparts raised three
feet in height, which were constiucted
during the mght, - i
“The enemy, sustained by the fire of
his artillery, dirceted all s attacks to
wards the wood, which i the two former
affuirs had been couragcously maintam

two hours, General Rokland was oblized
to give way, and he retired with his di
vision to the rear,where ittormed a corps

hortly afterwards, General Shizenceki

NEWPORT, R. I. WEDNESDAY MORNING, APRIL 27, 18:31.
pred by numerons masses of the encmy,
General Shrzyneck formed his brigade
i columus ot attack, penctrated the wood
under a shower of bullets; and, atter a
sanguinary contest, which was several
times renewed, ho regained possession
ol the Teft part of the wood, Tn order to
sustain this contest, General Chlopicki,
who was always to be found wheve there
wis the greatest danger, tormed columns
of attack with the grenadier regiments of
General Malberg, and leading thew hin
sclf by beat of drum, againat the cncny,
he obtaied possession of the vood, aud
extended his inlantry on the right,
~ “The contest was now converted nto
a massacre; our troops scizing the ene
my’s cannon, enclosed them and return
ed to the charge. The action lusted till
two, General Chlopieki had two horses
killed under Lim by grenades; and Lim
sell was wounded inthe leg Ly a ball
from a carbine, ate at length, desir
ous to deprive us ol the unity of com
mand, dirceted another grenade under
s horse, which killed the anmal, and
wounded Chlopickiin both legs, who was
thrown to the ground by the talling of his
horse,
“The enemy had now moved up his
corps de reserve; and the fire of his -
numerable artillery was continued alons
his whole line. Noew batteries, sustain
cd by new corps; which had arrived from
Kawgezy, renewed the attack in the rear
of the wood, and penctrated it a second
time; the consequence was, that the wood
could be no longer mamtained, and it
was abandoned, General Uminski, in
spite of” all his eflorts] hud not sutlicient
troops to oceupy the space between our
rght wing and our left wing, comman
ded by Gen, Krukowicki, and he order
ed up new corps from Kawgezyn and
Nabke; our army, in consequence, wis
obliged to content it itselt with taking up
a position at Praga, The divisions of
Generals Szembek and Shrzyvnecki ace
complished this movement in an orderly
manner, and without ceasing to keep up
a contest, The enemy, deceived by this
movement, thought the victory would be
acedclerated by eansing to defile from
both stdes of the wood has last reserves,
consisting of'the corp=of cavalry of Witt,
and a numerous horse artillery, On tlie
letty our artillery alone repulsed this at
tack. T'o the righi, on the voad of M
torno, a column, composcd of Cuirassiers
and Hualansg o spite of the fire of oor ar
tllery, which plaved on thewr Lirge mas

vanced and threatened o eak our
rainks. Already the head of this eolumn
had begun to pass our lines,swhen the
company of Obussiers of Captain Mkal
skitell onats ilank, and hy as tive check

fantry of Generals Szembek and Skrzy
necki, and the cavalry of Colonels Kicki
and Skurzyneki Casimer, who, i this de
cisive movement, distinguishied humsclf’
by his coolness and his courage, lost not
so favorable an opportunity, The whole
fell together wpon the lask and front of
the enemy’s cavalry, which sustained a
very considerable loss and retreated i
the greatest disorder, The whole regi
ment off Currassiers of Prince Albert,
which formed the head of this column,
was annthilated-—a part of it remained
on the field of battle; and another por
tion ot at fell into our hands,with two pie
ces of cannon,
“On the left wing, General Kruckow
icki, alter amost obstimate combat, drove
the corps ot Prince Szachowiki, trom all
these points, causing considerable loss,
and taking two picees of cannon; three
other picees of cannon, which could not
be removed for want of horses, were spik
ed, and thrown mto a ditch,
“T'he state of things on the right wing,
whore the enemy had displayed a very
powerlul toree, did not permit Gieneral
Krukowicki to pursue the corps of the
Prince, and by this means alone it was
preserved from utier descraction.
“The encmy, weakened by so many
fruitless, ealamitous attacks, slackened
towards cvening, and finished the day
by contmeed discharges of artillery -
long the whoie line, which were answer
ed by our artillery, which had been so
!uuch (]la‘lillgllihh(:(l during the hattle for

to retire to its entrenclhiment undor Praga
