A body of Russian, Austrian, and Prussian troops, under the

command of the Austrian General VON TRAUENSTEINBERG, took possession of the city and territory of Cracow on the 17th of February, to enforce, as the General declares in a proclamation, obedience to the commands of the three Protecting Powers for the expulsion of their Polish subjects from Cracow. It is pre- tended that this proceeding is justified by an article in the treaty of Vienna ; but it is quite superfluous in the invalers to quote authority for their outrage on the powerless victims of their tyranny. They surround the Poles of the little republic on every side, and may destroy the city of Ciacow. as NICHOLAS threatens to destroy Warsaw, whenever it suits their savage and vindictive policy.
