I leaving the posts uncontested. While this was going on
the Russian chief coiumn was marching along the Her-
maustadt road against Fogaros. At Sarkany and
Wledeny, where the troops of Engelhardt had arrived,
news of the preceding occurrences had come from the
camp ol Adlersbsrg, and a rumour got wind, since dis-
proved, that Hem had entered Haromsek. In conse-
quence of this, General Luders withdrew his vanguard
to wledeny, and on the 4th led his main corps in double-
quick flank march against the Kolteser- bridge. On
his appearing the enemy fell back to St. Uyorgy,
where they tried in the morning to withstand the
shock of the advanced guard, composed of four Lancer
divisiOns, several hundred Cossacks, and half a cavalry
battery. Attacked with vigour and resolution, they
were seen beaten and dispersed on all sides, with
small loss on the side of the Russians. 550 left dead on
the field, and four cannon taken, were the brilliant re-
sults of this day. The 6th was employed in making re-
quisitions and adopting the needful administrative regu-
lations. On the ensuing day, head-quarters were trans-
ferred to Marienburg (after a brigade had been left be-
hind), there to await the arrival of General Clam's troop
that was expected to cross the Tarzburger Pass, and not
the Rothen Thurm, on their way from Rinevick, in
Wallachia; the original plan of operations could then
be carried out with all energy. This change in the
Austrian tactics was rightly conceived, on account of the
difficulties in the way of pacification of the Szekler land,

tjtahh7eeteur niPseraunPl pccuvrt s about to commence on the 13th will
achieve the conquest of Transylvania, and all the sooner
that the Russian-Austrian army corps at Bistritz has
repulsed the double attack of the insurgent General
Bern."

It is evident from the above that the Magyars still
hold Herrnanstadt, and that the measures adopted by
BEM for its defence have been hitherto successful.
Idavaan has plundered from the Jews of Pesth
clothing and military stores to the value of 2,000,000
florins.
The enthusiasm of the Magyars increases daily.
The ecclesiastics cause to be carried before them a
colossal red sword, a red cross, and a large flag with
with this inscription, "Death to the Russians and
Austrians !" on it, in black letters. These proces-
sions greatly excite the people. The seat of the
Magyar Government is at Szekszard and Baja, in a
steam-boat, which ascends or descends the river as
circumstances may require, and which is provided
with cannon for its defence. KOSSUTH has said that
on his fete day he will disembark in this boat at
Pesth. He formerly made such a promise, and he
kept his word.
It is said that the Hungarians have concentrated
considerable forces under the orders of their Generals
VETTLu and GALL, in the neighbourhood of lialovza,
about fifteen miles south of Pesth.
According to the last advices from the theatre of
war in the south, all are flying to Esseg or into
Servia. All the male population, from sixteen to
sixty, have risen in arms in favour of the Magyars.
All sorts of arms are resorted to, even scythes and
ploughshares, and carriages, horses, and corn and
other provisions, are taken into the fortress of Peter-
wardein by their owners. The Magyars are masters
of the whole of the Baenat. Mothieg was known of
the fate of Temeswar since the Bth.
