'RussiaanhVslank.--There is little or no 'news from Russia and Poland.

The chronic contest between the people and the Govern- ment still goes on, but according to the latest intelligence the Em- peror is now disposed to adopt a more conciliatory policy. The Czar has addressed a rescript to General Lambert, in which, while he gives orders for the pacification of the kingdom "with the co-operation of intelligent citizens," he promises that Poland shall in future have greater independence. He also declares that he will entirely "forget the past."
