and commanded by Marshal Diebitch, (whose military talents have been said to equal those of the Duke of Wellington,) a series of engagements have taken place. The Muscovite general attempted to pass the Vistula, both above and below Warsaw, on the same day. The movements were anticipated by Prince Radzivil, the Polish general, and each division of the Russian army was encountered and repulsed. The division above Warsaw amounted to 40,000 men, and General Dwernichi had only 16,000 men to oppose to it, but of these a very excellent detachment of artillery formed a part; and the Russians having weakened their line by extending it, with the intention of surrounding their enemies, and cutting off their retreat to the river, General Dwernichi found himself able to break their line and repel them this was on the 19th of February. The following day he renewed the attack, and took eleven pieces of cannon. In these actions the Russians lost 7,000, and the Poles 2,000 men. On the 24th, Marshal Diebitch attacked the whole of the Polish posts simultaneously. 100,000 Russians are stated to have been engaged. After bravely sustaining this attack, Prince Radzivil withdrew the troops under his command into Warsaw, and cantonments in the immediate vicinity of that city, on the left bank of the Vistula, only leaving on the right bank a garrison, in the tête du pont at Praga, and demolishing the suburbs, so far as they interfered with the means of defending that post. The loss of the Russians in these several actions is estimated at 20,000 men, and 6,000 horses; and so badly is the commissariat of that army conducted, that many of the latter have perished for want of food, the scarcity of which has rendered that part of the army very inefficient. The loss of the Poles is said to amount to 11,000 men. ITALY.-The revolution in Modena and the Papal States continued for some days to proceed; and Ancona, and all the country, to the immediate neighbourhood of Rome, joined the insurgents. In Rome itself, the revolutionary feeling of the populace showed itself so strongly, that the Pope did not dare to shew himself in public, or even to remain in the Quirinal, his usual residence, but shut himself up in the Vatican. The march of two divisions of Austrian troops (one of which has entered Modena with very little opposition, and the latter has taken possession of Ferrara and Bologna) has subdued this rebellious spirit, and the revolution in these countries may be considered as terminated, at least for the present. The Pope has returned to the Quirinal; and Rome, at the date of the last despatches, was apparently tranquil. SPAIN. The provinces in the south of the Peninsula, are reported to be in a state of insurrection, and Cadiz is said to have joined them. Cove, Edward Woolferton, R. Wangford, P. C. Mursley, R. ....
