AND

THE NORTHERN STATES.

SAXONY.

The evening edition of the German Reforme, of
Berlin, contains the following, which is the latest in-
telligence from Dresden :
" About the half of the Alstadt (occupied by the rebels)
is in the hands of the troops. Dispositions are made
not to attack the Altraarkt and Schloss-street, all for-
midably barricaded in front, but to move round and en-
close them with a continually advancing wall of troops.
For this purpose, the artillery is kept playing upon the
barricades and contiguous houses, whilst tho wings ad-
vance. The right wing mastered the port-house last
evt-ning, the left was pushing on to the Fleischschanen
(butcher market). The result is not doubt'ul. The
whole of the Altstadt is probably at this time in
possession of the troops. It is doubtful whether,
but unlikely, that a combat will take place in the
suburbs of the Altstadt with the Ccmmunal Guard
assembled there, who have hitherto conducted
themselves rather tranquilly. At all events, the greater
part of the fugitives will fall into the hands of the 3d
Saxon cavalry, which has surrounded the southern side.
Prussian troops are on the march, not only from Gorlitz,
but the third Prussian hussars, with four field pieces,
are moving on Dresden with the utmost speed, and will
be there, to-morrow morning (Wednesday the 9th). Ten
prisoners have been taken, and the loss of the insurgents
is not known. On the other hand, the Alexander Guard
battalion has only lost one officer (Lieutenant de
Liebehen) and one fusilecr killed, one non coin-
•reizsioned officer and two privates slightly wounded.
It is stated that of the rebel triumvir lzschirner alone
remains at the head of the so called Provisional Govern-
ment ; his two culleagues have concealed themselves or
fled. According to the latest accounts the troops were
steadily and surely pressing forward, but not with undue
precipitati -es. The object i 3 to triumph with the least
risk of life, and the greater certainty of ultimate sue-
cost. Tho defence is obstinate, and each house re-
quiresegnen
ttioy separation walls are
through,con-
and a passage thus effected
with less exposure. In One of these houses Ileintze,

the so cared commander of the rebels was taken. At
The
the departure of the couritz•be was undergoieg an ex-
amination before the Minister of War.

PRUSSIA.
Accounts from Berlin of the Bth state that an in-
surrection had broken out at Breslau on the 6th. On

tl.e 7th the troops and the people were fighting in the
city. It was also rumoured that an insurrection had
broken out at ()Wentz.

AUSTRIA, HUN GAR Y, AND
RUSSIA,
The Emperor of RUSSIA was expected to join the
Emperor of AUSTRIA at Schonnbrunn on the 7th.
It is said that the Cabinets of London and Paris
have resolved to prevent the intervention of Russia
in the affairs of Hungary. It appears that the
Cabinet of Great Britain (in conjunction with that
of Franc(?) has addressed a note to the Cabinet of
St. Petersburg!), stating that it could not approve of
the intervention of Russia in the Austriaco Hungary
affair, nor on the question of German unity ; that
the power of Russia, united with that of Austria,
threatened to destroy the equilibrium of Europe ;
and that as Englar:d herself did not intend to inter-
fere, so she would not suffer litmia to do so.
The Hungarians are rapidly approaching Vienna ;
their walehtires can be seen from the towers of St.
Stephen. A heavy cannonade was heard on the sth
in the direction of Presburgh arid shortly afterwards
several fugitive soldiers arrived in Vienna announcing
the defeat of the Imperialists. During the whole of
the following day carriages loaded with the wounded
were continually arriving. . _
