AND

THE NORTHERN STATES.

FRANKFORT.

The German Parliament met on the 4th, and the
business transacted during the sitting was most im-
portant. The Committee of Thirty presented the
following resolutions, preceded by a long preamble,
in which different reasons in support of ;them were
set forth _

" 1, The National Assembly summons the Governments,
the legislative bodies, the communes of the German
States, and all the German people so to act as to
cause the Constitution of the German Empire, promul-
gated on March 28, to be recognised and obtain the
force of law ; 2, it fixes the 15th August for the open-
ing of the first Diet of the Empire of Frankfort, in con-
formity with the Constitution ; 3, it fixes the 15th
July for the elections of the Chamber of Representa-
tives of the people throughout all the German Empire ;
4, if, independently of the Anstro-German provinces,
the exceptional position of r,hich is provided for by
Art. 87 of the Constitution, some German States
sheuld not be represented is the Diet, and if, conse-
quently, some articles of the Constitution should not
be executed, those articlesshall be provisionally changed
according to the mode indicated in the Constitution, up
to the period at which the Constituti: n shall have eve ry-
where obtained a force of law; 5, if Prussia, in conse-
quence of the non-recognition of the Constitution,
should m t be represented in the Diet of the Empire,
the chief the most important Suite among those repro-
s:'nted in the Chamber of States shall be invested with the
rights and duties of Chief of the Empire, and shall take
the title of Lieutenant-General of the Empire; 6, imme-
diately on the Constitution being recognised by Prussia,
the dignity of Chief of the Empire, conformably to the
Constitution shall pass to the King of Prussia, who may
he reigning when that recognition shall take place; 7,
the Chief of the Empire shall swear to respect the Con-
stitution before the National Assembly, and he than
afterwards open the Diet of the Empire. At the moment
of the opening of the Diet the National Assembly shall
be dissolved."

The debate on these resolutions was not remarkable ;
one deputy, however, declared that the Bavarian Go-
vernment would not send representatives to the Con-
ference at Berlin proposed by the PrusFian Govern-
ment ; and another said that if the Princes of Ger-
many.should do so their thrones should be swept
away. A cormnunicstion from the President of the
Council complained that the Prussian Government
had cot sent its circular of 28th April to the Central
Government (this caused great astonishment), and
assertcd that Prussia exceeded her rights in dethring
that she would protect the Governments against
anarchy, as that duty, he sail, belorged to the
Central Government alone, and it was resolved to
execute it. Several radical amendments were brought
orward but rejected. In the course of the sitting
some sensation Wu caused by the announcement of
resignation of the three Prussian deputies, among
them M. DE BEKKERATII, Minister of Finance.
The propositions were agreed to after a long dis-
cussion.

PRUSSIA.
There was an emeute at Berlin on the 4th of May,
n the evening, and several persons were wounded.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.
COMPLETE EVACUATION OF HUNGARY
BY THE AUSTRIANS.
The Co7ogne. Gazette states that the Austrian troops
experienced a defeat neer to Atsch, and lost several
cannon, and that General WILDEN has evacuated
Hungary. The Megyers, to the number of 15,000
men, and 30 cannon, have penetrated into the district
of Turocz, and possessed themselves of St. Martin and
Mossocz, and intend to cross the Wasp.
General BEM has entered the Bennet, and occupied
the Karawsebes and Lugos.
According to a letter 'from Vienna of the 2d, the
first corps of the Russian army was to consist, of an
advanced guard of 8,000 and a corps d armee of
17,000 ; it was to be at Goding on the 3d, and to pro-
ceed to Presburg, where it was expected on the 6th
or 7th. The Hungarians were near Presburg, and
the report of cannon from that direction was heard at
Vienna. Entrenchments were being thrown up around
the town.
The Cologne Gazette of the 6th has the fol-
lowing :—" it is said that a proclamation of the
Emperor of RUSSIA is in the following terms :
'ln virtue of the treaties of Vienna, and
with the permission of the Emretton, I as-
sist in combating with a revolt which is no
longer Austrian but European. My subjects are
fighting on the side of rebels. I have placed at the
disposal of the Emperor of AUSTRIA. 80,000 men, be-
sides the corps which has already entered Transyl-
vania. All the 'troops are paid and kept up at my
expense' and I claim no indemnity. All idea of con•
quest is far from my mind.' "
The news of the last Hungarian victories is com-
pletely confirmed. The Austrian army consisted
after its retreat from Peath and Ofen, of three corps,
which were kept apart by the successful execution of
DEMBINSKI'S plans. The corps of JELLACHICII
consisted of Croats, some battalions of infantry of
regular Bohemian regiments, and a regiment (the
Walmoden) of heavy cavalry. These troops, which
were to have covered Ofen, were, by the bold move
of General VETTER, who crossed the Danube at
Foldvar, and occupied the Stuhl•Weissenburg and
Weszprim road, cut uff from the main corps ; and
forced, in order to avoid being blockaded in Ofen, to
make southward for the Croatian border. But this
route was already cut off. General FETTER was
posted at Kiss-Bbr with his corps, reinforced by the
landsturm of the Tolne, Eisenburg, and Salad coun-
ties, and, falling foul of the Ban, routed him so com-
pletely that his corps is no longer in existence ; while
he himself, a fugitive, took the road apparently to
Essegg, before reaching which place he might possi-
bly
fall in with some of the free corps of Perczel.
The second corps, consisting of between twenty-
five and thirty thousand men, under WELDEN, to
avoid being likewise cut off, sought to make good
their retreat out of Ofen along the right bank,
through Acs and Raab, to the Austrian frontier.
The Magyars, under KLAPKA and GUYON, hung
close on their rear, and overtaking them opposite
Comoro, inflicted that disastrous defeat which is also
just beginning to be known The Austrian vanguard
reached the frontier town of Bruck, on the Leitha,
entire, and the wreck of the rest of the army under
Weapon is now attempting to be collected and put
in fighting condition at Parensdorf, under the very
walls of Vienna.
The 3,1 corps, that of Wonecemunt and JABLO-
NOWKI7 Mhich, reinforced by the divisions forced out
of Upper Slovakia, might amount to some 16,000 or
20,000 men, were attacked and defeated by GEORGEY,
at Neiihausel, so that the whole of the island of
Schutt had to be evacuated, and the road was open to
Presburg, which is probably already in the hands of
the Hungarians. The extreme northern wing of the
Hungarian army has been equally successful. The
whole valley of the Waag has been cleared of the
Austrians by a corps consisting of armed czikos
(herdsmen), 15,000 strong, so that Sullein, St. Martin,
and Czacza, at the mouth of the Jaclunka Pass, have
fallen into the hands of the Magyars, who now
menace Austria, Silesia, and Moravia.
The Wiener Zeitung of this day says—" We are
informed that, on the 18th, the Magyars took Cavan_
sebes, and on the following day Lugos ; all the inha-
bitants fled in the direction of NVersee."
