GERMANY

AND

THE NORTHERN STATES.

PRUSSIA.

On the evening of the 27th a royal ordinance was
published in Berlin removing the state of siege.
A Frankfort paper says that there is a secret ar-
ticle in the armistice between Prussia and Denmark,
by which Prussia engages to execute the armistice
notwithstanding the opposition of the Duchies, and
to enforce its observance on the part of the Schleswig-
Holsteiners by force of arms if necessary.
The Cologne Gazette says that Prussia has offered
to assist Austria and Russia against the Hungarians.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

Advices have been received from Vienna to the 25th.

DEMBINSKI and GEORGEY have gained another vic-
tory. It will be recollected that in his dispatch de-
tailing the events of the battle of Waitzen, Prince
PASKEWITCH stated that he.had dispatched General
RUDIGER, at the bead of a '' lar,7e body of cavalry, after
GEORGEY, in order to prevent his crossing the Theiss,
and joining the main body of the Hungarian army.
The army of RUDIGER has been defeated, and forced to
fall back upon the main Russo Austrian army under
PASKEIVITCII.
The Wiener Zeitung of the 25th says—
" The 3d army corps which pursued the enemy to
Balsam Gyarmath has been since the 22d in G. iingyos."
RUDIGER, therefore, has been completely beaten.
On the 19th he was 30 miles to the north of Wait zen,
marching northward, and on the 22d he was 40 miles
due west of the same place, with his great force of
cavalry quite stationary, obliged to fall back on
PASKEWITCII'S high road from Pesth to Dukla. The
official paper adds:—
"The further pursuit towards Miskolez has been un-
dertaken by General Sass."
The Wiener Zeitung of the 24th announces that the
fortress of Arad had been forced on the 20th, in conse-
quence of a total want of provisions, to capitulate to
the Hungarians. The want of provisions is severely
felt by the Imperialist forces everywhere, and it is
said that the situation of the Russo-Austrian army
under PASKEWITCU is worse than was that of the
Austrian army under WINDISCEIGRATZ.
The Breslau Gazette of the 26tkinst. says—
.

"By intelligence from Hungary of the 20th inst. we
learn that Georgey and Dembinski have joined their
forces in the rear of Prince Paskewitch. The
Russians lost six thousand killed and wounded
in the affair of Waitzen. The battle lasted two days.
There were 120 pieces of ordnance in the field. The
second day the rear guard of Georgey made a terrible
resistance. The Austro-Russian army is surrounded in
the centre of Hungary. Klapka defends Acs; Georgey
and Dembinski, with 80,000 men, defend from Ypolsak
to Tokay, Ucsay, and Guyon. Three corps of the
Hungarian army are beyond the Theiss, near Sznolnok
and Pesth. They have been compelled to turn nearly
all the churches and public edifices into hospitals for the
wounded Russians."

The Agramer Zeitung of Semlin, July 18, de-
scribes the battle fought between HLYGES and
ToroLA as follows :

" As the Ban, on the 14th instant, ordered his troops
to advance at midnight against the enemy, and had dis-
patched a brigade against their centre, he was unex-
pectedly attacked towards the morning, on both flanks,
by a vigorous cannonade. The brave Croats, the
men of Piret, and the Walmoden Cuirassiers, fought with
the courage of liens, but were obliged to give way before
the superior force of the enemy; and there was great
slaughter on both sides.
" It is said tha'. Bem and Perczel led on their troops in
person. The Bin soon perceived the treachery, and
sounded a retreat immediately, in order that they might
occupy again the positions which they had before the
entrance into Busks. _ .

"It is also said that the plans of our army
were betrayed to the enemy by a certain Captain
Georgievie, of a German Banat regiment, who kept up a
correspondence with spies from Belgrade, and Magyars
from Pancova. He has been arrested along with a
Honved officer, and both the traitors will be tried by a
court-martial, and doubtless suffer for their treachery.
One of the authorities in Servia, Demeter Simicb, has
also been arrested. This unhappy man was doubt-
less bribed with Turkish Magyar money, and tried to
seduce the Austrian military from their allegiance to
their beloved Monarch. The Ban has retired to-day
from Titel, and crossed the Danube to Ruma."

As the Agramer Zeitung is the organ of the Ban of
CROATIA, the above may be considered as the BAN'S own
account of his defeat by BEM. The article is impor-
tant as proving the existence of a strong feeling in
favour of the Magyar cause even among the Croa-
tians. The fact is, that since the proclamation of
Austrian " unity," in March last, the Croatians, Scla-
vonians, and Dalmatians have become to the full as
dissatisfied with Austria as the Magyars, and as desi-
rous of taking up arms in defence of their threatened
nationalities. They have only been kept down by the
strong arm of JELLACHICU, and now that he is de-
feated, we should not be surprised to learn that some
" transaction" bad taken place between the Magyars
and the Sclavonians.
