The place of Diebich was taken by Paskevich, who bore the title of Erivanski from his capture of that fortress. The Prussians allowed him to march through their territory, making common cause with the Russians for the preservation of their Polish territory. He advanced against Warsaw with 78, 000 men, the Poles having only 37, 000 men and 130 guns to defend the city. The Russians took the redoubt of Vola after a stubborn defence and on September 288 POLAND ABSORBED BY RUSSIA 8th Paskevich enter...ed the capital. Before the end of October the whole country was in the hands of Nicholas, and the consti- tutional kingdom of Poland had ceased to exist. The last defenders of their country were disarmed on Prussian soil. Thousands of Polish patriots, notwithstanding the clemency of the Tsar, wandered as exiles into France, England, Switzerland, and other countries, eating the bread of affliction upon a foreign soil, and pouring the story of their country's woes into the ears of a sympathetic Europe, which had not yet lost its faith in liberty.
