Two EXTENSIVE Flal•s.•—Between six and seven
o'clock this morning, a fire, attended with great damage,
happened on the premises of Mr. Nind, paper-hanger
and decorator, nearly opposite Salisbury-square, Fleet-
street. The engines from Farringdon• street were in-
stantly on the spot, and thus the damage was confined to
the lower part of the premises. Mr. Nind is not in.
sured.—At twelve o'clock this day, another fire took
place in the shop of Mr. Browning, oil and colourman,
St. John's-street, Clerkenwell. Here, also, the Far-
ringdon-street engines were in very quick attendance,
and fortunately little damage was experienced by fire,
but some by temporary removal.

The Warsaw Courier publishes the following offi-
cial bulletin from PASKEWITCH, dated Lidalos,
August 14 :
" Georgey, having left Arad with a corps d'armee, in
conformity with the conventions which he had made
with General Rudiger, proceeded to Szellosz, where the
Hungarians were to lay down their arms. General
Rudiger at the same time sent our infantry and cavalry
to Szellosz. On the 13th, at midnight, Georgey ad-
vanced towards our army at the head of his staff. He
repeated to General Rudiger that he submitted without
conditions, and only solicited as a grace the intercession
of Prince Paskewitch. At four o'clock in the
afternoon the troops made their submission in the fol-
lowing manner:—The Hungarian army was drawn up
in two lines, in close columns, in the plains of the village
of Szellosz Theinfantry and cavalry on the two wings
occupied the first line, artillery the second. The infan-
try, utter presenting arms, laid them down, and the
cavalry alighted from their horses, and attached their
arms to the saddles. The men then left the ranks, and
proceeded towards the town of Zaraath under the escort
of three regiments of the second division of light cavalry;
the artillery and baggages were taken away by a regi-
ment. The regiment Jelecki was charged to convey all
the arms to Grosswardein. Eleven Generals, 20,000 in-
fantay, and 2,000 cavalry laid down their arms, and 130
pices of artillery were also given up. Georgey, in ap-
proaching our troops, cried, 'What cannot be undertaken
with such troops ! Georgey then declared that he was
disposed to cause the other divisions of the army to yield.
Shortly atter two messengers from the fortress of Arad
presented themselves to General Rudiger, and said they
were authorised by the commander, Demjennowicz, and
by the officers, to propose the surrender of the fortress to
the Russians. On the 14th the troops of General Rudiger
took up their previous positions; the advanced guard at
Szimond, and the principal corps d'armie at Kisch-Jeno,
where he will remain until new orders of Field-Marshal
Paskewitch. The corps of Georgey is proceeding
under escort to Grosswardein."
There is nothing positive in the Vienna journals of
the 20th with respect to the surrender of GEORGEY.
Some pretend that it was the result of long previous
negotiations with the Russians ; others that the Em-
peror of RUSSIA, with his hatred of revolution, would
never have consented to negotiate. The German Re-
form declares that the capitulation was exclusively
military, there being no question at all of a political
convention. Some accounts represent that profound
dissensions had for some time existed between KOSSUTH
GEORGEY. With GEORGEY sixty superior officers
capitulated, and his force consisted of 15 battalions
of honveds, 2 battalions of light infantry, a battalion
of the German legion, 3 regiments of hussars, a squad-
ron of Polish lancers, a detachment of engineers, and
70 pieces of artillery. It is said that KOSSUTH and
GEORGEY have addressed proclamations to the Hunga-
rian nation, the former announcing, that in consequence
of the turn affairs had taken, he considers it necessary
to resign his powers to his lieutenants ; the second
exposing his reasons for not continuing the struggle.
The Vienna correspondent of the Independance of
Brussels says—
"An eye-witness of the submission of Georgey tells
me that Georgey's proposition to yield with his 35,000
men at first excited distrust, and some trick of war or
treason was feared. He was accordingly required to
blow up all that remained of his ammunition. This he
did, and the giving up of arms took place afterwards.
According to the same person the position of Georgey
was not so desperate as has been asserted. He was still
able to beat in retreat, but his ammunition began to be
searco. The troops of Georgey formed the elite of the
Magyar army, there being among them many regiments
which had abandoned the Austrian army in the com-
mencement of the insurrection. The conduct of Georgey
and his troops is t.enerally praised, and a just tribute of
admiration is paid to his conduct during the war."
The journals contradict the report of the fortress
of Comorn having been given up, and declare that
General KLAPKA. was determined to make a despe-
rate resistance. The correspondent of the Inde-
pendance, on the other hand, says that KLAPKA was
disposed to capitulate, but that nothing positive was
known. One of the journals says that in the moun-
tains the Magyars were preparing for resistance.
According to the last news Prince fasxuwiTcn was
directing a large force from Arad towards Transyl-
vania, to second the operations of General LUDERS.
In a letter from Warsaw of the 18th, it is stated that
the Magyars had completely evacuated the east of
Transylvanie. The Magyars, how ever, had still
15,000 men under BEM, 25,000 at Orsowa, Amen
had 6,000 or 8,000 at Balaton, and there was about
the same force on the Waag ; but any concentration
of the Hungarian forces was considered impossible.
Of KOSSUTH nothing certain was known, but it is
said that a Magyar agent conveying a letter from him
to the Sultan, demanding an asylum for himself and
pastisans, had been arrested in Servia.
The German Reform publishes the two following
proclamations, without, however, vouching for their
authenticity. The first is from KOSSUTH and the
Ministers of the Provisional Government resigning
their posts, and appointing General GEORGEY Military.
Dictator; and the other from General GEORGEY, ac-
cepting the office. It will be observed that neither o
them is dated.
" PROCLAMATION OF KOSSUTH TO THE NATION.

" After the unfortunate battles with which God has
visited during these latter days the soil of Hungary, we
have no longer any hope to sustain with success the
struggle for our independence against the power of the
Austrians and Russians. In such circumstances the ex-
istence of the nation and the security of its fate
could only find safety in the general placed at the head
of the army ; but from the profound conviction of my
soul the maintenance of the present Government
will be not only useless, but injurious to the interests
of the nation. I declare, therefore, in the face of Hun-
gary, that I myself—animated with those sentiments of
the most pure patriotism, which has sanctified all my
actions, as I have devoted all my life to the good of my
country—l retire from the Government with the consent
of the whole of the Ministry, and I charge General
Georgey with the sole execution of the civil and military
power, until such time as the nation may think proper,
in the exercise of its rights, to dispose of it in a different
manner. I expect from bim—and therefore I rendered
him responsible before God, the country, and history—
that he will dispose of this supreme power to the
best of his ability and the extent of his means
to save the independance and governmental power co
our unhappy country, and to do everything that he
can to contribute to its future welfare. May he
love his country with as much disinterested-
ness as I have loved her, and may he be more happy
than I have been in labouring for the good of the nation.
I can no longer be useful to my country by my acts: if
my death should be necessary I will sacrifice my life with
pleasure to the prosperity of my country. May the God
of justice and of mercy have pity upon the nation.
(Signed) " KOSSUTH, Governor.
BSZMERE, Minister of the
Interior.
SEBASTIAN BUKOTIEL,
Minister of Justice.

ter of Public Works.

ter of Public Worship."

" PROCLAMATION OF GEORGEY TO THE NATION.
" Citiz -lib! The Provisional Government no longer
exist! The Government and the Ministers have volun-
tarily resigned their duties. The present circumstances
require a military Dictatorship, which is confided to me,
as well as the civil authority. Citizens, I will do all for
our country that can be done in our present unfortunate
situation, whether it be by war or by peace, but so
that our sacrifices may be alleviated, and that cruelty
and murder may cease. Citizens ! the events are
extraordinc,ry, and the blows of fate are overwhelm-
ing. In such a situation it is impossible to foresee
the future. My only wish—the only advice I have to give
you—is that you will return quietly to your dwellings,
without resorting to arms, e►en though the enemy should
occupy your towns, for you can only secure safety to
your person and property by remaining quietly at your
hearths, engaged in peaceful occupations. Citizens, let
us bear with manly resolution all that God, in his in-
scrutable decrees, wills that we should bear. We wi
preserve the hope that, acting with a good conscience,
aid treading in the path of rectitude, our cause will
not be !or ever lost. Citizens, God be with you always.
"ARTHUR GEORGEY.'
Accounts from Vienna state that already serious
differences have broken out between PASKEWITCH
and HAYNAU. The latter has taken upon himself to

protest against the conduct of the Russian General
towards (XEORGEY and his troops, and PASKEWITCR,
in obedience to the orders of the Emperor of RUSSIA
is conducting the negotiations for peace directly with
the Magyar Plenipotentiary, to the exclusion of
Austrian interference.
The Breslau Gazette has the following from War-
saw of the 20th :—" In consequence of the bulletins of
victory received from Hungary, a grand military and
religious fete was celebrated yesterday. A large
chapel was erected in the plain, a "Te Deum " was
performed, and 101 guns were fired. There was after-
wards a grand review. The EMPEROR, the Grand
Duke MICHAEL, the Princess PASSE WITCH, Madame
LAMORICIERE, Count NESSELRODE, the Ministers of
France,. Austria, and Prussia, and many foreign
officers, were present at the religious ceremony and
review."

I!- is stated in a letter from Berlin of the 22d, that
on the 10th the Russians knew that GEORGEY in-
tended to yield, and they accordingly recommended
General thy Nan not to disquiet him. This, it is
said, explains how GEORGEY, who was believed to be
in the north, made his surrender in the south, near
Arad.

PRUSSIA.
A letter from Berlin, of the 22d, says—" The event
of
the day ; a
letter
froml the Count DE BRANDEN-
BURG to the President of the Chamber of Deputies,
requesting him to place on the order of the day of the
Chamber a discussion relative to the German question,
the Government being ready to produce the neces-
sary papers. The Chamber immediately complied,
and the matter is to be discussed on the 25th. The
Ministry by this proceeding appears desirous to prove
in the face of Europe that the fall of the Hungarians

will not cause it to abandon its policy with respect to
Germany ; and it is evident from the language of the
semi-official journal that the Cabinet has net the least
intention of turning the Austria-Russian victory to
account against the liberties .and unity of this country.
In the Chamber the Minister of the Interior an-
nounced that the siege of Breslau will be shortly
raised."
