The Courier of Cracow notices a demand of General P.17DIGER

for the surrender of the Polish fugitives who had taken shelter in that republic, or their immediate disarming and dismissal from its territories. The republic!, which is incapable of withstanding either of the parties, has requested the Poles to withdraw. The republic is a mere creation of Russia, and its inviolability could only be respected while it continued to please its master. The Emperor is again reported, and this time with an appearance of truth, to be dangerously ill. Had he died three months ago, his death might have had some effect on the events that have occurred in the North.
