THE NORTHERN STATES.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

-- -
The Austrian General HAYNAII issued the following
diabolical proclamations, on the 20th and the 24th
ult., before leaving Pesth :
" In my proclamation of yesterday are indicated those
infractions of the laws established by the state of siege,
which are referred to the jurisdiction of the court-
martial. In the present those provisions are laid down
which appear necessary for the maintenance of tran-
quillity and order in these cities, so deeply shaken in
their moral foundations by the intrigues of the rebel-
lious faction. 1. All inhabitants of both cities are to
deliver up within the space of forty-eight hours, at the
arsenal of Buda, all arms and ammunition of whatever
sort in their possession. The municipalities of both
cities are to appoint a responsible committee of respect-
able inhabitants for each district, which, from the day
after the expiration of the above term, is to proceed, in
the company. of military individuals, to search all the
houses, to seize and deliver up all the arms found,
and to arrest the concealers ; who, upon being
convicted of the fact by court-martial are immediately
to be shot. In an uninhabited or unlet house the sentence
of death is to be inflicted on the house-inspector, or house-
owners, it being the duty of such persons to visit their
houses. 2. For the maintenance of order in the streets
and public places no group of more than ten persons will
be suffered. The military patrols have orders to fire
immediately upon such groups that do not disperse at
the first challenge. 3. Meetings of political clubs are
strictly forbidden, under pain of trial by court-martial.
4. Amenable to the same jurisdiction are all those who
keep taverns open after nine, or inns and cafés after ten
at night; who without permission of the commander of
the city post up placards, sell prints or pamphlets in the
streets, or give such to others for distribution, or expose
portraits or busts of persons implicated in the rebellion.
5. Lastly, such es presume to wear the uniform of the
national guard which demonstrates its rebellious spirit,
or, as was mentioned in yesterday's proclamation, wear
badges of the Magyar Republic in tri-coloured ribbons,
red plumes, and *o forth, either in their hats, or any-
where c!se, will be, without further ceremony, tried by
court-martial and shot."

"TO THE INHABITANTS OF BUDA AND PESTEL—
Scarcely arrived within your walls, I quit them again
with the greater part of the troops, in order to advance
with our victorious arms further to the pursuit and
destruction of the rebellious enemy. Ido not, however,
depart without expressing that expectation which I de-
cidedly entertain with regard to your behaviour, and
the disappointment of which will be followed infallibly
by the most deplorable consequences. I expect that you
will zealously endeavour to maintain tranquillity and
order in both the cities. I expect that all points of my
proclamations of the 19th and 20th will be observed
by you as strictly as if you were urged continually
thereto.
" I expect, finally, that during my absence you will
touch not a hair of one of my officers or soldiers
that stay behind, nor of those of the brave
army in alliance with us for the holy end of re-
establishing order. If you heed not my warnings
—if even a part of you should venture, with auda-
cious insolence, to transgress my orders, then annihila-
tion will be your lot. Then, making all pay for one and
one for all, will I regard your lives and properties as for •
feit, in atonement for your crimes. Your fair city, in-
habitants of Pesth, which is now partially touched with
the traces of just punishment, will then be reduced to a
heap of ashes, a monument of your treason, and of its
castigation. Believe me that I am a man of my word,
whether to punish transgression or to reward merit.
The disloyal inhabitants of Brescia who, like yourselves,
repeatedly deceived by the ringleaders of the insur-
rection, set about fresh treason, may serve as an in-
stance whether rebels have to expect any indulgence
from me. Reflect upon the chastisement which visited
that city, and beware lest, by neglecting my warn-
ings, you force me to inflict the same upon you.—
Pesth, July 24."
Intelligence was received at Vienna on the 28th
of the defeat of the Russians at Jaszo by GEORGY, to
whom the fortress of Kaschau immediately after-
wards surrendered, and wbo bad crossed the Theiss
and effected his junction with DEMBINSKI. He en-
tered Kaschan on the 22d ult.
It appears that after giving PASKIEWITCH the slip
on the night of the 16th, GEORGEY marched, by the
Neograd road, northward of the Tatra mountains.
Reaching at Balassa Gyarmath the valley oF the
Ipoly, he continued his march by the broad easy road
which runs along this river to Losoncz, and from
thence gained Rima Szombath. GEORGEY, having
baffled RUDIGER'S pursuit, proceeded from Rima
Szombath to Rosenau. He first met the Russian out-
post of the north at Jaszo, and in this neighbourhood
he gained a complete victory over a strong corps.
The Russian garrison at Kaschau was struck with
consternation at the sudden appearance of an Hun-
garian army. The new burgomaster and the war
committee there established fled to St. Miskolez.
The garrison dropped all thoughts of defence, and
the Magyars entered without opposition. Kaschau,
in a strategic point of view is a highly important
place. On this account it was fortified by PASKIE.•
WITCH, and made the head depot of the commissariat
supplies from Poland and Gallicia. From Kaschau,
GEORGEY marched towards the Theiss, which he was
to cross at Tokay and Tarzal. The Russian detach-
ments left on the other bank are irretrievably lost.
The Theiss is, as in the past winter, the line of
operations. The road to Gallicia lies open on one
side, and communications are established on the other
with DEMBINSKI.
Temeswar is reported to have surrendered to the
Magyars.
