It is glorious and lasting triumph to the administration of Cord Anglesey, it is alsoa triumph to the law officers of the crown. It is the triumph of the real opinion of the public as expressed through The Post. But, above all, it i the triumph of peace. We always maintained that the agitation, iho' general, was merely on the surface. '1 he result wilt demonstrate the truth beyond contradiction We congratulate tht country on ihis.

Prince Metternech is in close co;.n xiun with the duke of Montbel, who howev er, is watched close by marshal Maison On the other hand, the news from Constantinople by the way of Naples is, that the grand lurk means to take ad vantage of the embarrassments of the Russians to withdraw from complying with the late treaty 1 he greater pan of the pachas in Asia are ordered to b ready for scrvict in May The'greates activity prevails in the divan. Agas have been sent on missions to Albania, Servia, and Bosnia; finally the sultan, it is said, is endeavoring to induce the Per Mans to act, so as to give employment to the Russians on the frontier Cardinal Capcllari had been elected pope. A private letter from Madrid, of the 1 st February, states that the Spanish go vernment has been driven to hostile measures by the intrigues of the apostolical party. All the provincial rcgi ments, forty two in number, were put under arms. The anticipated war between Russia and Poland has already commenced How it will terminate or what other na tions may b' drawn into the conflict can not be foreseen. The intelligence we publish below will be perused with deep interest : LATE ANB IMPORTANT FROM EUROPE The packet ship Hibei ma ar i ivcd at New York, brings Liverpool papers to Maren 21, and London to March 20 They contain a variety of interesting in telligence. TOLAND Hostilities commenced between Po land and Russia on the 4' h of February, and there was incessant fighting up to the 24th The details are confused and unsatisfactory, but, this much is certain, the Ru sians failed in a great cfTot to possess themselves of Warsaw Finding i: impossible to foce the passage of the Vistula from Piaga to Warsaw di rect, the Russian army had filed off, in two divisions, one towards Ploch, and he other towaids Gora. leaving only a corps of observation near Warsaw The latest di ect intelligence from Poland, is Warsaw, March 4 Accounts from Berlin to March 9, and from Ham burgh to March II, contain no further information from Warsaw This is considered decisive that nothing unfavorable had occurred to the cause of Poland We subjoin the most intelligible and interesting details : The French papers of Friday week contain private letters from Warsaw to the 1st instant, which give a connected view of the sanguinary engagements of the 24 h ult and preceding days and render intelligible the confused detached notices derived from the. German pa pers. on the state of the Polish capital, and the position of the Polish ar my From this we learn that the Polish troops, after sustaining the shock of one hundred thousand Russians on the 24th of February, retreated under the fornfi cations of P aga, ?nd haf on the night ol the 25th. the eommander in-chief, prince Ridaville, led the whole of them to the eh bank, or Warsaw side of the river, leaving in Praga the artillery and infant ry necessary to defend the works of the tete de pout It was this detachment which set firo to the house of Paga, because they embarrassed the defence of the bridge The army which thus so bravely withstood superior numbers from 'he I9tn to the 25th, is still united and efficient, though it has sustained grCat loss in killed and wounded The cav. ry have taken up a position along the banks of the Vistula, above and bo low Warsaw, and 'he infantry is stationed in the birracks of the city, or in a camp a little beyond the barriers, where they pased last summer Tho greatest activity is shown in repairing the losses which the armv have sustained and reorganizing the corps which have suffer ed most. The resignation of piince Radzville, 'fter the retreat which, when unexplained, was considered the result of dispair on his part, or of dissention between him and his brother officers, now turns out to be a display of patriotism and self denial, that affords the best omen of the success of the Polish cause. The prince fi .ding that he did not inspire the confidence necessary in his malted position, .md perceiving in a oui.ger general vfficer, transcendent rautary capacity, ga?o op the cotamwd

The tetc du pont cannot holdou; ong. but the Poles, before they surren cr it, will naturally burn down the wooden bridge which connects Praga with Warsaw Ihc Russians will then, n is thought, have a corps of observation at the former place and proceed to cross the Vistula at some other point These operations will necessarily occasion a great loss ol time, as the Russians have no pontons, and must cross the Vistula by boats or rafts, made in the woods in which they are encamped. It it is necessary for the government to evacuate Warsaw, it will retire to a distant fortress along with the diet and the public treasures. The emperor Nicholas has, according to report at Waisaw, arrived at the head quarters of the Russian ar my He will there be a delighted spectator ot the glorious fruits ol his patcrn al sway. I he T imes, of l7th March, contains a letter from theii correspondent at Paris, received by express, and dated the eve ning ot the 15th, which contained the f ol lowing : The Berlin papersof the 9th instant have reached Paris this day. 1 he btatt Gazette contains nothing additional icpecting the late of Waisaw Private tetters irom Warsaw, which have arueci through lieriin by the same estafettc, (it scribe the Russian army as still ma i csuviing at the distant points anuded to in a former letter, with the apparent in tention of attempting io cioss the Vistu ia. The corps ot obervation was stni before Praga, but without lenewing then attacks 1 he Polise army was divided on each side of the Vistula, and moving as circumstances dictated The entir e Polish loss in killed ar.d wounded in the la e battles, is estimated at between six thousand and seven thousand men The official accounts from St. Petersburg, as well as private letters received this mor ning from Frankfort, dated in the R ssi an camp before Praga, on the 25'h ult confirm the previous accounts ot the desperate resistance which the Poles have made, but, as may beexpecttc, claim the victory. Dutch and Hamburgh papers, receiv ed in London on the 1 5th ult the former of which are ol so late a date as the 1 2 1 It inst comain intelligence from Wa;saw tothe4th. The Russian army, contrary to the report circulated of the surrender of that city, had not been abie to make any attempt upon it, or undertake any . peration on a large scale since the 25ih of last month. The action on that d-y was the most sanguinary, and appears to have weakened the force on both sides. The los of the Poles is stated al be iwcen five and six thousand killed and wounded, and that of the Russuns at tre ble that amount WARSAW, MARCH 3 Our journals c- t uisovtra oroerr of the day, both of the late commander in chief, prince Radzvihe, and of general Skiaynecki, containing promotions in the army ; those ol tho latter are dated Warsaw. Feb 26 News has been received that on the 26th February, colonel Lagowski, wiih on hundred and twenty cavalry, and one hundred yagers, passed the Vistula at Pulaway I he action lasted trrm 5 till half past 9 o'clock. The Russians bar riiaded themselves in a building, but were beaten ; three officers, one hund red and seventy dragoons, and above ninety horses, with their equipments, fell into our hands The magazine was saved Many military effects and much ammunition were taken Prince Czar totiski gave due praise toallthe Poles. After the last battle the Russians re tired behind the Crochow pillar, and have till now remained quite inactive A part of our army has returned to Warsaw to take -ome repose after so many hardships and battles. The Warsaw Courier of the 1st says, "Last night, some corps of the enemy, attempting to throw up entrenchments near Praga, were driven off by the fire of the artillery from the walls ot that for tress: twenty cossacs were made prisoners Towards Lomza, also our men repulsed an enemy's corps which at tempted to approach from that side." 1 he same paper, under the head of 2d says: "Yesterday parties of cossacs showed themselves below Praga. and on the banks of t lie Saxon Weider ; bu? ev ery time they came near they were dri ven back by our fire, and some of them taken prisoners. It is said there had heen an action at Paltusk,but no certain information has been received respecting it The State Gazette of Warsaw, says 'Beyond Praga all is tranquil: only at intervals we hear a few muket shots and see cossacs.
