AUSTRIA.

FURTHER SUCCESSES OF THE HUN-
GARIANS.

The Weiner Zeitung of the 17th contains the fol-
lowing announcement :—" By supreme command, a
reserve corps of from 22,000 to 25,000 men is to be
concentrated on the Mauhfeld, near Vienna, and a
second reserve corps, which shall consist at first of
16,000 men, in the vicinity of Pettau, in Lower
Styria, by the 10th of next month at the latest. A
reserve corps, of greater numerical strength than the
former one in Bohemia, is to be formed in the dis-
trict lying between Tabor acid Budweis."
The Gazette Krakowska says—
" A levy of Cracow recruits has been carried on here
for several days. In Chrzanow, six leagues from hence,
a number of Jews, burghers, and peasants flew to arms,
drove away the gendarmes arid finance guard, and
liberated the recruits. In consequence of this, Field-
Marehal Lirutenant Z,gedicz has marched two com-
pan'es of infantry to Trzrbui, a couple of leagues from
Chrzinow, and two more have marched thither to•day."
The Cologne Gazette publishes intelligence from
Vienna of the 18th, which says the news from Hun-
gary continues to be unfavourable to the Austrian
army. The remains of the corps formerly under the
orders of General GOTZ, and which, with another de-
tachment, both commanded by JFLLACUICH, defended
Gran, was attacked by the llungarian chief Itsrassr,
who had crossed the Danube below Pesth.

The insurgents had, after making a large portion
of the staff of the Ban prisoners, occupied Gran.
DEMBINSKI had passed the Danube at the head of an
army numbering, it is said, 50,000, and had taken
up a position before Buda, on the right bank of
the river. NVINDiscuGRATz, intrenched in the latter
town, awaited the reinforcements which were arriv-
ing from all parts. Meantime, protected by
DEMBINSKI, the Ilungarian corps under the orders
of GORGEY had marched upon Comorn, and obliged
the besieging army to retreat before superior num-
bers. GoaGET then pressed on, occupied Raab
and Wieselburg, and marched upon Presburg, to
prevent the arrival of the reinforcements expected by
WINDISCHGRATZ. In the Banat, General BEM had
given eight days to the fortresses of Temesvvar and
Arad, in which to make their submission.

The Voss Gazette has the following general de•
scription of the state of affairs in Hungary. It is con-
tained in a Vienna letter of the 16th inst. :—" For
two days a Hungarian army of 50,000 men has held
the imperial troops in check before Pesth, and
threatens to disengage Comorn. The insurgents are
masters of Waitzen, beyond the Theiss. The light
bands of Citikos prevent any movement of the Aus-
trians towards the north, and protect Debreczin,
Szegedin, Arad, Peterwarden, and Neusatz. The re-
doubts of St. Thomas are in the power of the Hun-
garians. Their flag floats in all the Bannat. BEM
is master of Transylvania ; Piro FINER and the Russians
dare not attack him. The Government has at length
understood that there must be no delay in restoring
the Imperial authority. General IVALDEN has left
for Hungary; Generals CASTIGLIONE, BENEDERE,
and WortwEatuTHE are to follow him. In some
days the army will have received all the reinforce-
ments that it expects, and then a decisive battle will
be given, unless the Hungarians shall prefer to retire
and commence a guerilla war. The position of the
Imperial army is very critical."
The same journal states, that 40,000 Russians have
entered Moldavia by the Buckowine. They bring
the answer of the Cabinet of St. Petersburgh to that
of 011muta, to the question on what condition Russia
would place her diplomatic and material resources at
the disposition of the Austrian Government. From
confidential sources we are led to believe that the
abandonment by Austria of all influence in the Danu-
bian principalities is the price demanded by Russia
for her services.

PRUSSIA.
It was rumoured in Berlin on the 17th that the
King of PRUSSIA had determined to accept the im-
perial crown on condition that the acceptance of the
constitution should be suspended until after its

revision.
the sitting of the Chamber on the 21st inst.
M. RODBERTUS motion on the recognition of the
German Constitution was discussed. The report of
the committee, to which the motion had been re-
ferred, recommended its acceptance by the Chamber,
Count BRANDENBURG, in the name of the Ministry,
strongly opposed the resolution, alleging that the
alteration made in the Constitution in the
second reading at Frankfort rendered it impossible
for Prussia to a.cept it unconditionally, though he ac-
knowledged the efforts made to procure a modification
lof the present form of the Constitution, in accord
with the other Powers, had failed.
On the division, the third paragraph of the resolu-
tion of M. RODBERTUS, pleding the Chamber to the
unconditional recognition of the Constitution, was
carried by 1/9 to 1.59. The result had caused the
greatest excitement.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.
A letter from Flensburg of the 17th says,—" It is
announced that Colonel BE TMAIIN repaired on Sa-
turday last to the King of DENMARK, and informed
him that if the Lie of Alsen was not evacuated
in three days the town of Sonderburg would be re-
duced to ashes. The ICING replied that he would
never voluntarily quit the isle, and announced to the
inhabitants of Sonderburg that they had three days
to secure their lives and property. This delay would
expire to day.
Intelligence has been received at the Prussian em-
bassy that the Emperor of Russia has sent a severe
note to the King of DENMARK blaming the Danes for
recommencing the war, and strongly advising his
royal brother to arrange the dispute and grant a con-
stitution to Schleswig.
