IMPORTANT FROM HUNGARY.

AUSTRIA.—Our dates from Vienna are to Ang.l7.
The fall of Grosswardein and the belief of Tema-
war are at ceeded to-day by news which, if true, far
more disutrons for the Magyars. But the source
whence it comes, as well as the dates connected with
it, still allow of considtrable doubt as to its authen-
ticly. The following appears in the evening edition
of the Wiener Zeitong:

TELEG;IATHIC DISPATCH.
His Excellency leldsaigmeister Heron Haynau to his
Majesty the Emperor.
His excellency the Feldxcaguseister II eron Haynan Informs
his minesty the Emperor, by means of a clurier, who will
reach Sehmbrann by the evening rain, that en the 13th of
this month, at Were, the rebel c' tot Horny, together with
a great part of hie army, *monist*/ to "etween thirty and
forty thousand me, laid down their arms and surrendered at
discretion. By the Imperial Commander of the City.
Vienna, 17th Aug., 1849.
Our Vienna correspondent observer, that the bul-
letin announcing Gorry's surrender states the
number of men u far higher thin what an official
bulletin did a few days bane, wherein the force was
given at from five to ten thousand men. For many
weeks past there has been a rumour of Gorgey's de-
serting to the Austrians, and some of their journals
called him, a fortnight ago, the noblest and cleverest
of the Magyars.

Our Berlin correspondent, writing on the 19th
Instant, and referring. to the above, s iv; :
To-day Berlin is in an unusual degree of pali-
tical agitation, not from local reasons, but a tele-
graphic despatch which reached Vienna on the 17th
from Marisa, has set the whole system here, from
the mini-ter down to the" bluer" in a state of in-
conceivable vibration. Extra-bleats crowd the
tobacco shops: qestioners overflow the beer cellars.
Bat how can it be that Gorgey and his army have
laid down their arms at Arad, cries one, while the
other day he was UP at Miskolcz, thundering back
Grabbe. How could he hop over the army of Pukie-
Witch, cries another. A third sapiently observes, that
it must be a coinage of the Bourse.
The National Zeigung, oar great liberal organ,
erects a fearful array of bristling arguments, in an ex-
traordinary 'lmplement, proving the official notice of
the Wiener Zedung to be all bilge. Now, unfortu-
nately, to lock into this same report, we have it first
of all in the most inconteatibly official shape. Secondly,
there is nothing at all impossible in the fact itself.
Thirdly, it is quite practicable to send a despatch in
four days from the spot Vitagos itself, which is only
a few English miles from Arad.
The objection that the communication with Pesth
proves the carelessness of the objector, who does
not take the trouble of reflecting that all Hay-
nan's last despatches have come through
Funfkirehen, south of Platten-see, and not by
Pesth, and there is nothing is the least either
impossible or improbable in a courier reaching
Vienna in four days from Arad, through Funf-
kirchen, Keermcend, and Brack. At the latter
Place the railway_ begins, or, coming from
alma, ends. Hem then, the telegraphic
apparatus also commences. Now Haynan's courier
would naturally be charged with a telegraphic
despatch and a full written report to the emperor.
But still it is not impassible that he might not have
borne the telegraphic desietob, as the distance from
Bruck is so trifling, and might, on his own responsi-
bility, have announced the great news to the tele-
graphic clerk, who would of course immediately put
the due symbols in motion for the benefit of Weiden
and the Vienna public. Nothing is more pro-
bable in this case than that the name of
Gully, as the Hungarian Hercules, should have
crept in, like the alteration of an ignorant scribe in I
the M.S. of a Greek play. In fact, although no
doubt can be entertained by any reuceable man that
some vast surrender of the sort mentioned must have
taken place at Viler., it does sound somewhat im-
probable that Gorgey should hays crept along the
base of the Transylvanian mountains from Nagy
Huoly in so amazingly short a time. On the other
