hand, according to Haynes despatch, Bon had
arrived before Temeswar on the 9th, and held a
council of war with Dembinski, Guyon, Vetter
Koseti and the rest in a ruined building, amid thewild
forest under Temeswar, which was, but a day or two
ago, a flourishing arm-manufactory, and was by them
destroyed. Haynau describes their disorderly flight
in remarkable terms. Now, if we substitute the name
of Ben for that of Oorgey, the despatch will appear
much less improbable. There is here a version cur-
rent of the motives of surrender, which deserves
notice. It is said that such terms were offered these
men that it appeared better to accept them than to
wage a war of despair.
Baron Haynan ham sent the following bulletin,
dated Temeswar, Aug. 10, concerning the operations
of the army of the Danube after forcing the passage
of the Theism at Bzegedin
After the victorious battle at &nog, near flugedin, the
enemy was pursued without relaxation. The army, notwift-
standing the great exertions made in the rapid march from
Nagy-Igniand to Szegedin, reached as early as the 7th of
August, the lies of St. Miklos, Albrechtseur, 0. Some°,
sad Kieft; and on the Bth that of Bsaiteny (es the right
hash of the numb Roes, St. Peter, Peseak, Leeds, sad id-
ealised through Ceded to Metalloid. In this pursuit, during
which the massy only attain to mho some resistance

The number of deserters and pikes's, thus picked up
amounted to abroad 3,000. From Mako, Lieut. Field-Mar.
Mal Count &gelid' sent • detachment to Meftibegyea,
which saved the treasury funds these and 3,000 horses. I
had ascertained that the while forms of the enemy had re-
tired from ElaTedin to Timmer. and that the corps of the
Lower Theist, commanded by Vetter, had joined theft
there. The insurgents seemed resolved to stand a decisive
battle before Temeswar' and for this purpose their
exceedingly numerous troops were provided with more
than 100 pieeee of artillery. I advanced on the 9th
of August with the 3rd army cons, and the
Wallmodea division of ',matey from Canted towards His-
Itemkerek, and with the Reuel= division of Paninties, toge-
ther with the reserve artillery from Lowrie, through Gille,
in the same direction, while the reserve corps was ordered
up from Pussk, through Rae: to Hodony and Ks-
reny, take the enemy in his right flank. I had
directed the first army corps to send out side columns
on both basks of the Maros to P. aka and Fonnok, hut to
march with the main body of troops from Rare and Bt. Peter
to Monostor and Vilma, in order to cut off the enemy's line
of coismanisation between Arad and Temeswar, and to take
his er.illery, as I knew that he had already raised the liege
of Temeswar. The enemy had posted his rear guard at
Kie-Becskeek, from which place he was soon dislodged
by the third army corps. As I debauched with
the third army corps, and the division of cavalry
out of Beeskeree, in order to reach an advantageous
position where the troops might securely cook their meal and
bismuth, the enemy developed upon his retreat more and
more batteries and divisims of cavalry. I caused him
immediately to he driven by the troops at hand across the
defile formed by a marshy brook which tut the road. The
enemy made a firm stand on the other aide of the brook.
Behind the Beregozo brook, where his numerous forces were
=eked by des thickets, the enemy made, sometimes on
the right, sometimes on the left, manwuvres to rut-flank us,
and on our left flask he succeeded for a time in stopping our
progress.
1 now caused the Russian division of Paniutine gradually
to advance with its batteries, and the reserve artillery to
come into line of battle ; and when by the development of
this great mass of arillery the enemy was partly sib aced, I
ordered a general advance. The cavalry-brigade of Learer
covered the right flack towards thekelbsz, from which point
the enemy endeavoured to outflank as, whits I applied the
light cavalry brigade of Bimbechen upon the left wing of the
line of battle from Besenowa, with affect. At this moient,
four in the afternoon, the reserve corps appeared before
Hodony, and Lieut. F. M. Primo Freya Lichtenstein ad-
vanced in the direction of Se. Asdra's against the enemy's
right flank.
The enemy now gave way along the whole line, followed
by oar troops. Behind the Beregm-brook be still held the
wood till evening set in. Active pursuit was not possible, as
brooks sad mushy spots hampered the action of toe cavalry,
which for the rest was extremely exhausted by the continual
'fightlag and the long marches in this completely open
country.
When the twilight descended, having ascertained by •
reconnaissance that the enemy had already left the wood,
and eonti..ued his retreat, I resolved the same evening to
roach the gates at Telegram, end started at the head of two
divisions of cavalry foe this purpose, caufirg our advance to
be severed by some battalions. The enemy, who had crew
pled the jungle, attempted indeed to atop our progress, bat
the effort was fiestratel by a half-battery that was directed
against his fl ink ; and the relief of Temeswar was effected
with increailile rapidity.
The cheers of joy with which the whole population re-
solved me were extraordinary. During this battle, which I
wish to call the battle of Temeswar, the garrison cf the for-
tress made a sally, and indicted considerable loss on the
teeny.
I eon this happy result chiefly to the indefatigable devo-
dos of m troops, which, alter • march cf such unexampled
rapidity from the Danube hither, and after a journey ot 12
miles on the 9th, without having dined, fought with courage
sod @odorants till nightfel.
In reopen of exertion, the cavalry bee made incredible
Abets. I must also bear witness to the praiseworthy conduct
of the whole artillery of my army. The infantry did no*,
properly nuking, come into actin, for the whole battle
was to a violent cannonade, which lasted six or
soma lea" mixed with some effective charges of cavalry.
' The opportune striking in of the reserve corps, contributed
potently, to the victory. The vanguard of this corps had
reached the high road from Arad- to Temeswar, through
Kerany, taken her 24 pounders, mend ammunition
winos% and an immense number of baggage, wagons,
while it caused terrible confusion to our adversaries. -Oen.
Schlick bad advanced with his army corps to litonostor, and
with his vanguard to Vings, where he made 300 prisoners
and took a large magazine of 'military elothing.
I have to day concentrated the army at Tenney, with
the exception of the first Imps, which will invest Arad ; and
thrown out advanced posts to Resets, and as far as the river
Tenses.
The enemy Ilse fled with the wildest precipitation to La-
gos, bagpipe, guns, munition-wagons, all galloping helter-
skelter together' the infantry has nearly all disbanded, and
bad not the night surprised us, if 1 had bad the least idea of
this tremendous confusion, I would have sent the cavalry
after them, all exhausted with fatigue as they were. In the
neighbouring jungle there was a manufacture of arms, which
has been destroyed by the Lantern% themselves ; and within
the walls of this building, at nine o'clock at night, were still
mated Dembiaski, Guyon, Hosed, Vetter, and Bens, who
bed arrived the same day accompanied, probably, by some
reinforcements, and had assumed the conunand-in-chkf of
the army. Upon the field of battle wen found an innumer-
able quantity of thrown-down arms. Deserters and prisoners
were brought in by the heap. The number of the latter up
to yesterday amounted to 6,000.
The devastation to Temeswar, caused by the bombard-
ment, is beyond description horrible. The city was battered
to one ruin; and I cannot sufficiently extol the endurance
and hardihood of the garrison hen as well as their com-
mander. Lieutenant Field-Marshal, Baron Rukawina.
During the siege 2,400 of the garrison have died of divers
complaints, mostly typhus and fever; 300 have been killed
by the enemy's fire, 1,400 are still sick in the hospital, and
600 sick in the companies, fee whom there is no room in the
hospital.
Tne fortifications are pretty nearly undamaged, except
on three sides, which an greatly injured. Notwithstanding
the extreme violence and length of the artillery fight, our
loss on the 9th was very small. It consists, so far as Is yet
known to me, sad as respects the Austrian army, in 15 killed
and 36 wounded. Major Barn Brants, of the Emperor
Ferdinand's coinesiere, err fall= ; and the captain of cavalry,
Prince Taxis, Count Paltry, and Baron Simbsehen of the
Emperor's lancers, and Lieut. Caravaggio of the Lichtenstein
amass loom are wounded. Of the Russian division, 8
are killed and 8 wounded.
The want of bunkers' meat in the fortress of Tameswar
was such that for 18 days the garrison devoured hone-fien.
p the siege Lieut.:Field Marshal Glaser was killed by a
