GERMANY
AND

THE NORTHERN STATES

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

It is said that the Austrian Government has deter-
mined to open negotiations with the Hungarians.
The Wiener Zeitung of the 11th contains the
official report of the operations of the Russian army
in Transylvania, from which it appears that as soon
as Lieutenant-General GROTENUELM ascertained that
in consequence of an engagement at Shassbourgb, in
which the insurgents were worsted, they were re-
treating from Maros Vasarhely, he advanced his own
troops from Isass Regen to Vasarhely. The corps
reached the place towards evening, occupied a posi-
tion without the city, near the neighbouring village
of Nayaralo, and effected a junction with the corps of
General LUDERS, whose advanced guard entered Vijs
the same day. The enemy immediately commenced
a march in the direction of Galfalao, whither the
combined corps were to pursue it on the evening of
the 4th.

The Wiener Zeitung of the 12th states that Gene-
ral LUDERS has defeated BEM at Schossburg.
The German Reform, however, says that the intelli-
gence from the seat of war is by no means so favour-
able to the Austrians as is represented by the Vienna
journals, and that it is very generally apprehended,
from various reports and rumours, that the insurgents
will, ere long, make an attrck upon the Austrian
frontier.
The report of the defeat of PASKIEWITCH by
GEORGEY remains uncontradicted.
The mother of the EMPEROR has left Vienna •in
consequence of the serious differences which have
arisen between herself and her son on the subject of
the Hungarian war, and it is said that the dismissal
of SCHWARTZENBERG is also resolved on. Should he
be dismissed, the EMPEROR will probably at once
enter into negotiations with the Hungarians.

Sea Island at 100. to ls. 21d. per 10. 'The market was
not quite so active, but remained steady, ...and holders
maintained the recent advance in prices with much firm-
ness.—Railway Shares were firmer, and prices• had an
upward tendency.
In the Grain-Alarket the arrivals are moderate, and the
trade is dull.

The amount of business done this week in the markets
for colonial and foreign produce has been satisfactory, if
not very extensive, and supplies have not been pressed
forward by auction. Privately more has been done in
sugar than by public sale. Ceylon caFee has continued
in favour, and brandy, rum, and rice have commanded
more attention. Dye goods have been in request, and
cotton has risen. Black teas have been steady, and
tallow dull.
