BRIGHTON AND CONTINENTAL STEAM PACKET
,hat adjourned meeting of this company wu
held yesterday the London Bridge Station, Captain Ho-
them in the chair.—Kr. Sutton, the solicitor, read the re
port and balance-sheet, from which it appeared that the
directors had not been able to effect an amicable arranee•
meet with the Brighton and South Coast Railway with re.
'poet to the 13,0004 lent hy the latter cdaspany,.which would
not forego its claim with interest, making n. 15,0001. or
16,00 W. The only course, therefisre, that rem .ined for the
proprietors to pumse wee, to wind up the company and to
settle all its claims; 10,000!. had been received on accnent of
the but Newhaven, and 16,0001., which would be paid in the
course of the ensuing week, remained due. The balance,
made up to the let of July. and taking into account the claim
of the Brifehton and out` anding claims, was stated to be
10,000/. The chairman, in answer to various questions,
stated that the outstanding cells amounted to 1,0891., and
that they calculated about het' would be received, which
would leave a sum of from 6,00 W. to 6,4001. to be divided
amongst the propriettn, or about 11.7.. or 11. Bi. per share.
The Brighton directors had been empowered by the roprie
tore to enforce their claim, and be supposed they must do so.
Parties who had not paid, and did not pay up their calls,
would forfeit all they bad paid. After some discussion the
report was adopted ; after which a epee:del seetieg was held,
at which it wee unanimously resolved to eimolve the com-
pany. Thanks being voted to the chairman, lb meeting
separated.

GERMANY.
AUSTRIA.—The latest intelligence from Vienna is
to the 6 h instant.
The following letter from our correspondent confirms
the particulars we gave yesterday relative to the cap-
ture of Raab.
VIENNA, AVGCBT 6.
The imperialists lost all their guns along the
Danube. Two divisions of Uhlan's were literally
destroyed, and other troops sedly cut up. All the
transport vessels and tenders filled witsi provisions
and ammunition, 2,600 oxen and 600 carriages laden
with ficur destined for the army of the south, have
been captured.
It is not yet known whether the corps of /solids,
which de'eated General Nugent some days ago,
Il
uni•ed with Klapks, who commands the troops, or
not previous to surprising Raab, Acs, and Goynyo;
still it appeare, from an official communication con-
formable to which the imperial troops have retired
to the left ide of the Danube, and from the fact that ,
no couriers are despatched to Pestb,:that the whole of
the routes from Presbutg to Pesth are now occupied
by the Magyars.
The trocpswho had been ordered to march out from I
here refused at first to go to Hungary, more parti-1
enlarlykehe Polish battalions. The interference of the
emper r prevailed upon them, and they left Vienna
in the afternoon.
Lathe suburbs of Vienna people collected and ex-
their hopes that the Magyars would arrive.
dolt think, however, that they will eras their
frontiers.

An interesting letter from Presborg, dared the 4th
inst., appears in the Cologne Gazette. It describes in
graphic terms the panic terror prevailing these.
The writer happened to be standing, about three in the
afternoon, on the great bridge of boats. when there
arrived first solitary riders, then solitary officers on
Let, covered with duet, bespattered with mud; some
bare-headed ; then small troops of military, without
their knepsacke, in the moat pitiable condition. It
could hardly be called walking, it was running. An
eflicer related the MUSS of it all to several comrades
who detained him. It is es follows : A considerable
Hurgarian corps—the officer spoke of 10,000 men—
had sallied from the fortress of Comoro, and stood al-
ready in Cleirgii, when the news of it reached Rub.
The garrison of this town was quite insignificant;
a panic seized the imperialists. Everything
that could flee, fled, and, as we ourselves
witnessed, in anything but military order. The panic
must indeed have b.en great to induce these officers
to bolt f r Presburg through thick and through thin.
The writer then indulges in some reflections on the
consequences of this sally; and, as Lloyds, regards it
as immaterial had it not been for the immense
stores for the main army, which had been
collected at Rub and Gicrgo. Everything fell
into the hands of the Hungarians. Tae lots must
be far greater than a million florins (£80,000). At
Gei-gii two steamers were lying at anchor, which bad
mit Img towed there a number of tenders. One of
them may have 'perhaps escaped, as its steam hap-
pened to be up. but the second is certainly lost. There
were more than 80,000 trusses of hay, enormous
quanti ice of flour, millet, vinegar, &c., piled up
on the quay, and 2,400 head of oxen were
stalled at Raab, for b. ing driven on farther.
You may ea,ily conceive that the gentle men
from Comoin d d not leave one hoof of them behind.
Besidee this, they took prisoners two companies of
foot, captured six cannon, and the officers were in end
te.bnlation respecting the fate of half a equadron of
Celan& Such was the news brought. The mails
and steamers were immediately stopped, for it was
feared the Ilungarians would advance as far as
Wievric lburg, and even further. One hour later, and
couriers flew in all directions. The telegraphs worked
the news to Vienna and Breinn, requiring speedy
help. Tnis has been the fourth sally of the garrison
at camera within a week. The first to Dotis, when
ei.{ht Austrian officers and sixty men were taken.
On returning to the fortress the mail fell into their
fiends they carried it along with them and got 6.000
florins in Austrian bank notes, and 300,000
eompu'sory drafts addressed to Count Z.chy.
The conductor and a superannuated major were
:ent about their business by Klapka, but an official of
the poet and a captain of infantry detained. The
record sortie was more like a party of pleasure. The
th rd t xcursion was the most imposing; they then
Vole the direction to Neuhautel, driving the so-called
Austrian blockading troops back to Szered. All the
baggage, provender, and two cannons were the booty
of that day. The fourth sally, has been best
rewarded with success, namely, the one to Raab.
Presburg is quite Magyar u far as the feel:ngs of the
inhabitants are concerned. The black and yellow
streaks of the balustrade on the bridge are quite sig-
nificant upon that score.
The latest accounts describe Vienna to be in a state
of the greatest excitement and confusion. Numerous
patrols paraded the streets, both of the city and
suburbs. The radicals here asserted that Haynau had
sustained a defeat. It is also said that the insurgents
have taken Gran. In addition to the troops that left
at noon (on the sth instant.), fresh soldiers marched at
two. During the night the telegraph sent fora part of
the Oltneez garrison, which chows the ex:stence or
dread of a velcano in Vienna itself.
Toe Presborg correspondent of a morning con-
temporary, given to anything but exaggerating 'the
successes of the Hungarians, sends the following parti-
culars, which, though repeating some of the details
already given, gain interest by reason of the source,
from which they come:
This morning, as I was standing on the bridge, I observed
a tumultuous asselambge of offic is and soldiers rushing past
me. acme on horseback, others a-fog. Immediately after
their arrival in Freeburg horsemen were seat off in all direc-
tions, and it was clear that some important event must have
he ooened. A short time afterwards there was another rush
of_ i ddiers—dirty, disarmed, and exhausted—and in a
trice the whole town was in a state of the greatest
cansternation and excitement. Though the Austrians have
greatly benefited the place by spending a deal of money hers,
yet the sew intents of the Hunearian and German part of the
population have been with difficulty rep lesed—inieed there
were some manifestations of public feeling. For soon it be-
corirsomknrn ,
tooo be i th

of Haab ; that they had pushed their advanced guard to
Wiesselburg, and that they were within sight of Altenburg,
So sudden was the app.cach of the Hungarians upon Raab
that the imperialist garrison of that place was seized with a
panic. Their flight was general and disorderly in the extreme.
The fugitive officers presumed that the citiesof Raab and Gorge
were taken—indeed, there was nothing to prevent the Hun-
garians from taking them, a,. d with them an enormous quan-
.ity of stores, the whole commissariat of the imperialist army,
which had been concentrated in the two places, previous to
heir g seat in the interior to the army of General Haynau.
A' Gorge the Hungarians must have found two steamers with
a quantil of boats which they were irtended to drag. On the
quays were above 00,0f0 bushelsof oats and enormous quan-
lid• s of flour, rice, and vinegar, and 2,400 head of cattle—
all of which fell into the hands of the liungeriaas. The lives
of the imperialist armies in Hungary depended on the safety
of their stores, which cannot now Fe replaced in time to
be of any use to them. The Hungarians captured also two
companies of tout and six pima of artillery. Several troops
of Lancers, too, were mining. Thus, within a few days is
revenged, as if be Heaven itself, the atrocious spoliation of
the Jews ef Buda-Pesth.
Of the impression which the news of this disaster
made at Vienna the same journal has the following
account:
This morning Vienna presented an unusually excited
and flurried appearance. Four battalions were despatched
he railway to Freeburg. Among them was a battalion of
Rifles consisting of mere lads. There had been some mutiny
among them. I understood they had refused to march
until the emperor sent to say that they should not be used
against the enemy. At length they consented to do so, but even
then the scene wits heartrending. The poor young fellows
moaned and wept aloud. They cried that to march against
the Hungarians was to go to death. The officers yielded lees
to their feelings, but they, too, parted from their friends and
relations with very evident algae of emotion, and then
hurried the men off. Nor the railroad them was a dense
crowd of curious 'potato' I. Here again the young riflemen
tarried and bemoaned tbefr fate. They said, "We are
going to be shot !" and, sch:ressiag the crowd, they cried—
Farewell for ever. We dull saver return!" The deems
intreated them to be quiet and rotilfted to their fete.
They rtibmitud at length. It b's stated hare that Haynes
finds the diflimiltiss of march alma* lass_ perable. There are
ramous of his Diving been breed to fall hock elms Kite'
