POSTSCRIPT TO THE WEEK'S NEWS.
SPECTATOR OFFICE, SATURDAr, Two o'cLocx.
German and Dutch papers have arrived this morning. They do not contain any decisive news respecting Poland ; but an article from Kalisch states that 9,000 Russian troops entered that town on the 24th August, and encamped themselves in the vicinity. It also states, that Warsaw was to be summoned to surrender in three successive days ; and should it not have done so at the expiration of that period, it would be bombarded with all the artillery of the army. A Statement is made of a counter-revolution in Warsaw, but no details are given respecting it. An order of the day speaks of further enormities committed in Warsaw, and a Commission was about to be appointed to discover and punish the guilty: many persons are said to have been murdered. The Russian head-quarters were, on the 22nd, at Madarzyn. A body of troops had been within three miles of Warsaw, to reconnoitre, but they did not attempt any thing further.
An article issued by the Board of Health at Berlin, mentions the measures to be taken should the Cholera break out in that city. It had already appeared in several parts of the provinces of Pomerania and Brandenburg, on this side the Oder.
