POLAND.

London June 15. Letters from Poland and accounts in the German papers inform us, that the most frightful persecutions are carried on by the Russians in Warsaw. The most solemn promises of the Russian Government are openly violated towards the highest Poles in that unhappy capital. Generals Luberiski and Chrzanowski, to whom Marshal Paskewitch had pledged the clemency of the Autocrat, have been transported under an escort to Moscow. Generals Isador, Krasinski, and Dzialynski, are dead of the cruel treatment to which they were subjected. General Witt has been sent to Petersburg, on account of some new difficulties which have arisen in the government of Warsaw. The Russian authorities have even begun their war upon women. Countess Sabaniewska has been ordered to quit Warsaw immediately, and to exile herself beyond the Polish territory, on account of some compassionate succors which she had lent to her countrymen.
