COPENHAGEN, JULY B.—The official report of the
General in command to the Minister of War, respect-
ing the splendid victory of the Danes, has been re.
ceived here to-day.
"North Jutland, Corps d'Armie, July 6, 8 P.I.
" According to preconcerted arrangements, the
avant guard under Major- General D MEZA, and the
sth brigade under Major-General VON RYE, cleared
the fortress cn the night of Thursday, at one o'clock,
and by a vigorous attack suddenly threw back the
enemy's outpost. By this movement the cavalry, as
well as the 3d and 4th brigades, gained space enough
to quit the fortress, which the reserve artillery
was likewise able to do afterwards. Our troops
passed for ward effectually and speedily, in consequence
of which one of the enemy's works after the other
was destroyed, whereby a great number of prisoners
were made, and a vast quantity of booty taken in ar-
tillery, ammunition, and other military stores. In
artillery 7 field pieces, about 40, 24, and 80 pounders
for balls, besides several mortars, were taken. After
the enemy had been driven from his entrenchments
he was closely pursued, having chiefly retreated by
way of the Pass of Havrebale to the other side of
Nebelare, the other passes of which were also occu-
pied by our troops at Gudsoe, Breetstrup, and Ramsf-
jord. Many of the enemy's troops were drowned in
the Fjord, having been forced by the rapid advance of
our troops to fall back that way. After
an engagement of ten hours we were
masters of the ground, and took up a temporary posi-
tion. The enemy's outposts are standing in a line
from Ettung, by way of Stendrup, to Nebbegaaed
and Holstninde.
" Simultaneously with the sortie from the fortress,
demonstrations to effect a landing were made north
and south of Fredericia, at Trolle and Snoghai, in
which the marines rendered great assistance, and
thereby contributed to the happy issue of the combat.
The demonstration in the south terminated in an
actual landing at Snoghai, which was occupied by us."
"IThe army has again on this day achieved one of
those victories for its KING and country which
will stand out in history as the monument
of the spirit of the north, which has sub-
sisted for centuries, and, by the help of GOD,
will continue to subsist for hundreds of years among
the men of Denmark ; but it is to Providence that we
desire to return our thanks, which has this time per-
mitted truth and loyalty to triumph victoriously in
the strife with falsehood and perjury. Unhappily,
this fierce and violent engagement has demanded
great sacrifices on our part. Foremost in the ranks
of the fallen heroes it is our painful duty to place the
valiant General Von Rye The state and the army
will suffer an equal loss in the death of this
brave and highly gifted son of our country.
Lieut.-Colonel Von Kasemidel also, who lately re-
turned from another quarter of the globe, found an
honourable death in this combat. In conelusion, I
may be permitted to add, that there was found to exist
a good understandingamongall, both men and officers.
The generals in command and the commanders
of the brigade executed their commissions with pecu-
liar skill and bravery.

ITALY.

The Roman Assembly, in its last sitting, unani-
mously voted the Constitution of the Republic, and
ordered it to be deposited in the Capitol, as the ex-
pression of the unanimous wish of the Roman people.
They also ordered a funeral service to be celebrated
in St. Peter's for those who had fallen in defence of
the Republic, and finally voted that the Triumvirs
Mumma, MAZZINI, and SArrx had deserved well
of the country. GARIBALDI, on leaving Rome,
was accompanied by 10,000 men. He was
loudly applauded by the people as he passed
through the city. The communication between Rome
and Civita Vecchia was re-opened on the sth.
Several Lombards are in the latter city waiting to
embark for England.
A letter from Venice of the 27th ult. says—
" The greatest tranquillity reigns in the country. The
Government has sent away some individuals who wished
to excite disturbance. Venice can resist three or four
months without further assistance. The star of Manin
does not get pale."

SECONDARIES'.—(THIS DAY.)
In consequence of the illness of Mr. Secondary James,
and absence of Mr. Secondary Potter, Mr. William
James, the son of the former gentleman, presided.
A new jury was sworn in, and the excuses were taken
by Mr. Hudson. A great number were made on the
ground of illness.

WILSON V. STAFFORD.
The plaintiff in this case is a livery stable keeper, and
defendant is a lady residing in the Hornsey-road. The
action was brought to recover the sum of 181. 18s. for
the hire of carriages, &c.
Evidence was adduced to show that the carriages had
been ordered by defendant and Mr. Williams, who bad
acted as her solicitor in endeavouring to effect a com
promise with her creditors.

• A juror asked whether plaintiff was aware of that
'act, and bad agreed to come into the arrangement?
Mr. WILLIAMS said he did not.

The SECONDARY said the charges appeared to be ra •
they high.
Mr. WILLIAMS said the defendant was now in the
receipt of• 6002 a year, although she had been in diffi•
cul ties.

The jury found a verdict for the amount claimed.
CASH AND ANOTHER V. WILSON.
The plaintiffs in this case are trustees of the National
Provident Association. The defendant is a gentleman
residing at Kingston-at-Hull, and the sum claimed is
4,5751. 2s. 6d.

The SOLICITOR to the plaintiffs said, that in February
1846, a loan was made to the defendant of a sum et
4,7001. at 4 per cent. interest, for which he gave a mort-
gage on houses at Kingston; and there was a covenant
in it that the principal should be paid at 100/ pwr annum,
but up to this time only 1004 principal had been paid.
The jury gave a verdict for the amount.

MARLBRO'-STREET—(THISDAY.)
Charles Cannel was placed at the bar charged with
having stolen from the pocket of Mr. Frederick Fitch
Smith, 98, Mount-street, Grosvenor• square, a silk hand-
kerchief, value Ss. 6d.
The prosecutor stated that on the previous evening,
about seven o'clock, he was passing through Saint Mar-
tin's-lane, when he felt a tug at his coat pocket, and at
the same instant the prisoner passed him with a pocket
handkerchief. Witness felt in his pocket and missed
his handkerchief, which made him certain that the pri-
soner was the thief. Prosecutor went forward to seize
hold of him when he ran away, followed
by witness, calling out, " Stop thief !" A person in
attempting to stop the prisoner was knocked down, and
had it not been for another person catching hold of the
prisoner, lie would have escaped. The Prisoner was
detained till witness came up, when, after a desperate
resistance, he (the prisoner) was secured and conveyed
to the station. On going along, the prisoner put the
handkerchief into his (witness's) hand, and begged him
not to press the charge. The handkerchief produced is
the same that was stolen from his pocket.
The prisoner, who said he should reserve his defence,
was committed for trial.

RUMOURED DEFEAT OF PASKEWITCH.
The Belgian journal the Nation has the following :
—" Important news has been received by us from the
Hungarian army of operations opposed to the Russian
army of 110,000 men, commanded by Prince PASKE-
WITCH. It is not our usual correspondent who
writes to us, but we have reason to believe
that it is in his name that one of his friends
has sent us the following communication :
On the ]st and 2d of July, Dzstnrsisnr, with his
own corps d'armee, and all the reserves of the veteran
troops drawn from the army of operations now act-
ing in different parts of Hungary, amounting alto-
gether to eighty thousand men, attacked the Russian
army in the defiles between Miskolez and Erlau.
The attack took place in flank, so as to drive the
corps, commanded by the PRINCE in person, into the
marshes of the Theiss. We have not received any
details of this important battle, but the success
appears to have been so complete that the
same Hungarian reserves of veterans, to the number
0f40,000, men marched the next day by Waiten for
Komorn, to reinforce the army of GEORGE; who,
from the 4th of July, has been able to resume the
offensive against the Austro-Russian armies. DEM,.
RINSE', with 55,000 men, was in pursuit of the re-
mains of the army of PASKEWITCH and it is probable
that immediately the news of DEMBINSKI'S victory
becomes known, the warlike population of the defiles,
in which the Russian Prince has imprudently
engaged himself, will rise en Inane to
cut off his retreat through the passes.
He will not find it so easy a matter to retreat through
the passes of the• Carpathians as he did to advance.
His advance was purposely facilitated, in order to
draw him on to the field of battle which the Mag-
yars had chosen beforehand.
If it be true, as stated, that PASKEWITCH has de-
tached from 20,000 to 25,000 men byond Theiss, by
the marshes of coke, upon Debrecsin, it is more
than probable that this corps will be obliged to lay
down their arms without striking a blow.
A letter from Vienna, in the Independance of Brus-
sels, states that the Hungarians have retaken Szi-
gedin, and that the Diet was to be opened there on
the 3d.
