THE NORTHERN STATES

AUSTRIA A.ND HUNGARY

The splendid and successive victories gained by the
Hungarian patriots under BEM, GUYON, GEORGEY,
DEMBINSKI, Armor, and KLAPRA, have fallen like
thunder upon Vienna. The accounts are confirmed
which stated that the personal interference of the
EMPEROR was required to induce the German
recruits to leave the capital for Presburg.
In the Austrian Cabinet there are two parties—the
young EMPEROR and KRAUSS being on the side of
peace—SCRWARTZEATBURG, .BACH, and SCUMERLING,
on the part of war. The people generally are with
the former, and the intelligence of the sympathy,
evinced for the Hungarians in England has produced
a profound impression.
On the sth instant Prince SCUNYAETZENEURG left
the capital on his road tiiVarsaw, and on learning
at Cosel that General LAMORICIERE had started just
before from that place to Cracow, the Austrian
Minister is said to have exclaimed, " What the devil
does he want at Cracow ? ' _ _

Another great and decisive victory has been gained
by the Hungarians, perhaps the greatest and the
most decisive that has yet been achieved in this
glorious and extraordinary campaign. It occurred on
the 3d instant. On that day General CZ&RICII, the
commander of the besieging corps before Comorn was
suddenly fallen upon by the garrison, hea led by
KLAPKA. It appears that that garrison, originally
numbering only 10,000, had been latterly augmented
to 23 000 men, by upwards of 12 000 dispatched
thither by GEORGEY through Waitzen as a reinforce-
ment. Czonica's corps was utterly routed—so utterly
routed that it lost its Position, its guns, and its stores,
together with the bridge across the Danube con-
necting them with Schutt. Their outposts were driven
back twenty- five miles on the Vienna side of
Raab, namely to Wiesselburg, so that not
only is Raab now in the possession of the
Hungarians, not only is KLAPKA. twenty-five miles
nearer the mperial city of Austria, not only is the
siege of Comorn raised, but Acs and Gorgo have
fallen into the hands of the Miigyars. So tremen-
dous are the calamities that have befallen the Austrian
armies, and so perillous is the position of the Austrian
capital, that the people of Vienna are uttering their
execrations both loud and deep at HAYNAU, while the
Government is employing every effort to pour down
by railway towards the Hungarian frontiers every
possible reinforcement. The position of HAYNAU,
indeed, is positively terrific at this moment. He has
marched down into the heart of Hungary, and now all
his lines of communication with the capital of Austria
are effectually cut off, provisions .are every day be-
coming more and more scarce, the bad season is
rapidly approaching, disease and discouragement are
together spreading through the ranks of his men, and
his name is held in equal abhorrence, as that of a
perfect monster of cruelty, both by his own country-
men and by the Hungarians.
GEORGEY'S force, on passing the Theiss at Tokay,
numbered 35,000 men, and out of 120 pieces of
artillery he had lost only two throughout the whole
of his movements.

The Russians under PASKIEWITCH are described
as dying off like flies; and it is counted upon as
inevitable that, unless a change occurs before
August, his whole force will be little short of being
annihilated.

The following paragraph will be perused with
peculiar interest :
" MAdame Paskiewitch had received a letter from her
husband, dated the 2d, which said that he had been de-
feated by Georgey, or which, at least, led her to that
conclusion. Georgey was spoken of in the highest terms
of admiration by the Emperor, and hence, of course, by
everybody else. He had won the heart of a Russian
offio•-r, whom he had taken prisoner, by his generous
treatment. This officer, whom he had set at liberty, was
never tired of pratiing his benefactor, of whom he sent
a personal description, which would suit a hero of
romance, and of which the most striking feature was his
quietness of manne!."

FitUbSIA.

Accounts from Berlin are up to the 9th.inst.

The First Chamber of-Prussia met on the Bth, and
voted thanks to the army. The Minister of the In-
terior presented reports on the state of siege of Berlin
and Erturth.

The Second Chamber, after receiving, on the 7th,
directions from Count BRANDENBURG in the White
Hull to constitute itself, went to the old room in the
Donhofs-Platz• Here all was unchanged, save that
some chairs were placed before the Ministerial table
for the Members of the Centre, which were taken by
AuERSWALDt HARKOST, WENZEL, BECKERATH, and
Stmsort. The Ministerial bench was occupied by
MANTEUFFEL and -VON DER HEYDT. Hitherto no-
thing beyond mere formal business of routine hae
been transacted. Simsos is likely to be elected
President.

ELSENHAUS, editor of the Messager of the Fortress
of Rastadt, was shot on the 6th, in virtue of the sen-
tence of a court-martial. BIEDENFELD has been
respited.

Some surprise was felt at Berlin at the non-arrival
of the Vienna mail on the Bth inst.

BADEN.
The Alsacien says that amongst the documents
which fell into the hands of the Prusians, after the
re est Ablishment of order in the Duchy of Baden,
were two letters addressed to SII,GEL, the Gene.
I.4liSsinl° of the Baden troops. The first is from
TIEDEMANN, praying to be freed from his colleague
AkEGLING
military matters, and threw every thing into confusion.
Who, he declares, understood nothing of
The second is from AICEGLING, complaining of
TIEDEMANN, whom he declares to be a fool. He
states that if this latter should prevent him his ob
taining a victory, he would have him shot as if by
mistake. He terminates his letter by pointing out a
number of inhabitants of Heldesheim, as deserving to
be arrested.

The workmen's clubs have been just suppressed,
not only
at Heidelberg, but throughout the Grand
Duchy. They were considered equally dangerous to
the existing order of things as the people's clubs, and
have consequently shared the same fate.

BAVARIA.
ZwEin, the Minister of the Interior, had sent in
his resignation on the 7th. It had not, however, been
accepted by the KING-
.The Vicar of the Empire was expected from Gas-
t= on his way back to Frankfort.
