FROM JACKSON, MISS.

THE CAPTURE OF THE CITY—DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY BY REBEL AND FEDERAL TROOPS.

New Yous, July 29.—The Herald's corres- poudeut at Jackson, Miss., writing on the 18th, says the Mississipp: campaign is ended by the, recent flight of Jolusion trom Jackson. He) states that on the afternoon of the 16th, the left wing of Siaith's corps, under Major Geo. Parke, lind a severe battle in obtaining a point near Jackson, suceessfully driving the rebele—the Jatter leaving hundreds of their dead sud wounded on the field. Our troops then rested tor the night. Gn the following morning the rebel pickets were found to have been withdrawa and the city evacuated.

‘the rebels burned some sixty buildings fronting the capitol when they evacuated, and the whole city bears ev dence of destructive hayoe made by its vccupation by botharmies. The city was sur- rounded with excellent earthworks, nfle pits, &c. oue line of earthworks being constructed over 2000 bales of cotton covered with earth, and over two miles in exteat. The place could have been | defeuded easily. After occupation detachments were seat out, and all the rebel railruads, bridges, cuiverts, water tanks, &c¢., within a radius ot filleen wiles were destroyed.

The wother still resides in Toronto, but a few weeks since the boy and gicl returned to the futher, and it is alleged that since their arrival they have made several attempts to poison hin! The man states that, having several times been seized with eudden and dangeroue illness, he applied for relief to a phys.cian, who, on examination, declared that his sickness had been produced by some poisonous drug. Suspicion falling on his children, they were closely questioned, and the boy, after some hesitation, made the shocking revelation that he and bis sister had been furumshed with poison by the mo- ther in Toronto, and sent back to Kingston expressly to take away the life of their fa- ther and that of a woman with whom he had been living on too intimate terms, and that he had attempted at various times to carry out his mother's diabolical commands by mixing the poison in his father’s tea and col- fee! Having told his dreadful story, the lad expressed deep surrow for what he had done, and earnestly begged his parent's forgive- ness. The man refuses to prosecute the guilty partivs, aud it is, therefore, impro- ble that any farther particulars of this horrible affair than we now give will find their way to the public ear, at least for some time to come.—Aingston Daily News.

Paris, July 24.—The semi-official Consti- tutionnel deciares that the Russian repl ie everywhere considered unsatisfactory. The Conatitutionnel, in conclusion says :—'* We regret that the Russian reply is bot more sativfactory ; but it is not necessary to stir up excitement as some jourvals have done The Government of the Emperor does not re- quire to be urgedon. Its wisdom guarantees it from paren. as its patriotism pre- serves from flattering. he Patiie, of this evening, says that the draft of the American reply to Prince Gortechakoff’s despatch on the Polish question has arrived in Paris. The most perfect accord, aays tbe Patric, continues to exist between the respective views of the three Powers. The Pays says, the exchange communications between the Courts of Paris, London and Vienna con- tinues, and they attest the complete harmony of their views and sentiments.

LATEST VIA QUEENSTOWN, THE POLISH QUESTION.

| Latest dates are to the 25th ult. The affuirs

of Poland form the most engrossing topic of |

lintelligence. It will be seen, by reference to the detailed news here given, that Rania! |has practically rejected the diplomacy of | | England, l'rance and Austria, and that she! | is determined to put down the Polish insur- ‘rection, without any regard for the feelings or opinions of those great Powers. Euro- | pean journals are divided in opinion ae to

| whether this attitude of Kussia will lead to

(3 war with France and England. Austria! seems well disposed to avoid it; and England | will not, if she can help it, rush into war trom mere sympathy for the Poles. We see | nothing for it but an undisturbed continuance ‘in the barbarous and excessively cruel me-

‘thod by which Russia ‘nvariably tramples

ment of the patriotic aspirations of the Pules. |

The Polish questivn is exciting great inter-

est just now. The reply of Russia to France | is so huaghty that the Emperor winces under it, and indeed the replies to En-isnd and | Austria require a good deal of equanimity to digest; but France stands in an exceptional | position, and the Emperor knows it. From the first, the English Cabinet appears to have made up its mind not to fight ; and Austria | is in the position of a man called upon ' reprimand a thief, having previously been the | | recipient of some of hisill-gotten gains. But France is altogether in a different case ; and being so, she is treated in the Russian reply in @ way that cannot fail to hurt the pride of the peuple, and no ruler in France can afford to have the national pride wounded. It is evident that the Three Powers, when they presented the joint note, calculated on a more favourable reception ; but the obstinacy of the Czars is proverbial, and the obstinac that morked the characwer of Nicholas evi- dently eurvivee in bis sun.

It is understood that the King of Prussia is using great exertions tu break up the under- standing between the three Powers on the Polish question.

From the latest and most reliable papers we cowpile the following suumary of news :—

An erroneous report (which originated in the metropolis) of Lord Clyde's death was circuluted on Tuesday, and caused general regret. ‘The latest accounts of the condition of the noble soldier's health are slightly favourable, but he is still in a precarious condition.

A public demonstration in favour of Poland was held in London on Wednesday night. A proposition was adopted, deprecating all negotiation with Kussia respecting Poland, except upon @ basis of cessation of hostilities, the withdrawal of the Russian troops from every part of Poland, and the establishment of a separate and independent Polish State ; and urging that if an armed intervention was requisite the English people wouid cheerfully bear the responsibility. A deputation was appointed to lay this proposition before Earl Russell.

The proceedings of the National Rifle Asso- ciation at Wimbi+don was brought to a close on Saturday, when the Duke of Cambridge reviewed upwards of 12,000 Volunteers.

Mr. Farnall reports that during the week which ended on the Ilth inst., there was a decrease of 5464 in the number of persons receiving relief in the distressed districts under lis inspection. So steady has been the improvement during the last seven months, that the number of persons dependent upon the parochial rates in December last is re- duced to one-half. To meet future demands, the Central Kelief Committee estimate that they have about £539,000.

The Directors of the Atlantic Telegraph Company have invited tenders for the laying of a cable between the coast of Ireland und Newfoundland, so that there is a good pros- pect of telegraphic communication bein shortly established between Europe an North America.

In the House of Lords, on Monday, Earl Granville, in reply to Lord Lyveden, ex- pressed regret that the Canadians bad not yet made any provision for the defence of that colony, und stated that in the event of war it would be imposeible for England to help them unless they were willing to help themselves.

In the House of Commons Lord Palmerston stated, im reply to Mr. S. Fitagerald, that Earl Russel remonstrated wita the Federal Geverpment respecting the practice of Fede- ral consuls to refuse clearances to British vessels without a bond that no part of the cargo was destined for the use oi the Con- federates.

Paris, 25th July. — La France of thie evening publishes ao article headed ** Diplo- macy and Poland,”’’ in which it expresses a hope that diplomacy has not said ite last words in the affairs of Puland, but, continues La France, even should diplomacy fail, the result already obtained is immense. For a century the Poiish question has found sym- pathy in France alone, and has been the knot of the coalitions against France. Now the knot is cut, those who weie against us are with us. Russia may see, in her isolated po- sition, the triumph of the great interest placed under the guardianship ut Europe.

THE POLISH INSURRECTION, POLITICAL EXECUTIONS IN PULAND.

The following are the executions which have taken place in the th of June alone. They are duly recorded in Russian official documents :— June 3— The Abbe lezora, hanged at Wilna. 5—Abbe Liemiacki and Albert Laskowicz, shot at Wilna. 8—Count Leon Piater and Abbe Rozgo, shot at Duna- burg. 9—Boleslas Kalysko, hanged at Wil- na. 10—Biolozas, a rich landed proprietor, shot at Kowno. 12—Konarski, a Capuchin, and Henry Abicht, hanged at Warsaw. 13 —Zielinski and Baraniecki, shot at Kieff; Czardziewicki, shot at Minsk. 15—Constan- tine Micewiecz and Alexander Czarnecki, shot at Siedlee. 16—Leo Frankowski, bang- ed at Lublin. 18—Ancypa, Korsak, and the brothers Macewicz, shot at Mobilew. 20— Bonkiewicz, hanged at Piotrkow. 21—Les- niewski, shot at Wilna. 22--Abbe Falkow- ski, shot at Lida. 27—Cvunt Sierakowski, hanged at Wilna.

Wismowski, the commandant of the Na- tional Gendarmerie, has been condemned to death by the Russians.

‘The severity of the measures taken by the Russians in Galicia is increasing. Great atrocities were committed by the Russians at Janow on the 7th inet. The whole town, with the exception of three houses, was burnt down. It ie asserted that 20 Jews and several wounded persons met their deaths in the flames.

A protest against the arrest of Archbishop Felinski was read on Suaduy in all the charches of Warsaw. Monsignior Kzewaski, the Archbishop's representative, has volun- tarily resigned his office. Orders have been issued that ail the churches throughout the kingdom are to be draped with black, and that no bells are to be rung. Arrests of se- veral clergymen took place on Sunday night.

The Russians have arrested many land- owners in the Kingdom of Poland. They have also hung M. Gaczowski at Kielce, and M. Wisniewski at Radom, with seven others. An order has been issued prohibiting persons from travelling from one village to another without a passport.

The arrest of the young Prince Sapieha for complicity in the Polish insurrection ia an event of no small importance. The prisoner is the son of the Land marshal of Galicia, is himself a member of the Galician Diet, and belongs to one of the first Polish families.

The Wilna Courier publishes along procla- mation of General Mouravieff in its official portion. ‘The Governor-General reminds the | peasants of the benefits for which they are! indebted to the Czar, complains that they have nut yet joined the troops, and endeay- ours tu exasperate them aguinst the land- owners and insurgents. ** I'he rebellion

The Breslau Gazette publishes the follow- ing decree of the National Government :— + 1. Functionaries diswissedgby the Russians will be supported by the National Govern- ment. No Pole is permitted to accept the post from which any such person bas been dis- charged. 2. Acceptance ur purchase of goods sequestered hy the Russians declared high treason. and will be punished aceord- ingly. 3.

. The revolutionary town captain has issued several fresh orders. that although the Russian Government has ordered the collection of the taxes by execu

tion, the prohibition of the National Govern- ment is in no way modified. All Poles who pay taxes will, as hitherto, be brought before » revolutionary ‘tribunal.

The Czas, in a leading article on ths notes of the three Powers, says ;—** The six points do not even guarantee Poland against Rus- sian tyranny, muct. less do they assure her a durable peace. Moreover, it 18 not the six | points that are of importance to Poland, but rather the conference in which they are to be discussed and the armistice which is to precede the conference.”” The Czas thinks that the conference will demonstrate the impossibility of enlarging the six points in such & manner as to meet the wants of the Polish nation and the exigencies of the situ- ation, and likewise the impossibility of ap- plying them under the Kussian rule, not- withstanding their thorough insigaificance. * Poland,’’ says the Czas, ** uvither feurs nor rejects the conferences.”

The Patrie publishes an article signed M. Dreolle, upon the Polish question. The writer considers that the notes of the three Powers to Russia are no longer suited te the actual state of affairs. ‘* Poland,’’ he says, ** does not wish for reconciliation with Russia, but desires independence. There can be no doubt that Russia will consent to negociate on the basis of the six points, as the negociation will permit of her pursaing |the work of destroying Poland."’ = M. Guer- vult, in the Opinion Nationale, believes that no good results are to be expected in the Polish question from the efforts of the d:plo- macy, which will ouly succeed in establishing 1t8 Impotence.

‘The intended journey of the Empress of Russia has been postponed for political reasons. Her Majesty, 1 is said, will await the result of the Kussian reply to the notes of the three Powers.

The same papers state that ‘‘ a good understand ng exists between the Three Powers, who in a few days, with- out drawing up any fresh propositions, will refute the arguments put forward by Russia, and will again appeal to the conciliatory sentiments of the Russian Government.”’ M. de Balabine, the Russian ambassador, is about to proceed to St. Petersburg tor the purpose of obtaining fresh instructions.
