GERMANY

AND

THE NORTHERN STATES.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

Comorn and Peterwardein still hold out ; the first
is commanded by KLAPKA, the second by Kiss. The
Russian General BERG had a long interview with the
latter on the 23d ult., the result of which was that
an Hungarian Major was sent to General lIAYNAU to
arrange terms for the capitulation. The impregnable
position of Comorn induces KLAPKA to demand good
conditions.
The garrison of Deva, in Transylvania, blew up the
fort rather than surrender to the Russians. Every
man perished,and happier to have perished thus than
to live like GEORGEY, " infamous and contented."
The following letter from Temeswar throws some
aditional light on the proceeding of this aristocratic
traitor :
" It is a fact (says the writer) that Georgey and his
staff are treated in the most courteous and distinguished
manner by the Russian General Rudiger. An Austrian
officer who was sent with dispatches to General Ru-
diger's head quarters found Georgey and some twenty
Hungarian officers dining with the Russian General,
who with his officers was doing the honours of his table.
The Austrian, on being invited to join the table, refused,
on the ground that in his position as an Austrian officer
he could not dine at the same table with rebels. The
Austrian officers, on the other hand, are but coldly re-
ceived by the Russians. The disarming of Georgey's
corps is said to have been very imperfect."
The following incident shows that Russia is dis-
posed on all occasions to show her contempt for and
her power over Austria. According to that journal,
KOSSUTII'S notes, condemned by the Austrian autho-
rities, have been declared valid by the Russians, and
are given and received by them in payment.
We congratulate the Austrian EMPEROR and his
satellites on the manner in which their "allies" are
treating them, and feel inclined to address them in
the words of VIRGINIUS—

" Ye've helped to put your masters on your backs ;
They like thtir place, and make you show your paces."
Count CASIMIR ESTERIIAZY has protested against the
statement that the recently published letter by Kos-
swril was addressed to him. The letter was most
probably addressed to Count CASIMIR BAIIIYANI.

A letter from Vienna of the 31st ult., addressed to
the li/dependance of Brussels, states that several of the
Magyar chiefs have been executed by order of General
IIAYNAU; among them are the ex- Minister of Justice,
POPOYICH, and General DemuNicu, who have been
hanged, and General AUFFERMANN, who has been
shot. The Vienna journals state that General Jo
wictf, an old man, who gave up the
fortress of Essegg to the Magyars, had
been taken to Vienna in chains. One of the journals
states that the mother and children of KOSSUTH and
the wives of several Magyar generals had arrived as
prisoners at Presburg. The Ministry, it was again
said, intended to maintain the Constitution of the 4th
of March as the basis of the government of Hungary ;
and there was some talk of General GYULAI
being appointed civil and military governor of the
kingdom.
According to the Wanderer, the greater part of
the Russian army had received orders to march to•
wards Gallicia ; but the corps d'arrnea of General
RUDIGER was to remain at Miskolcz and Grosswar-
dein. Buda and Pesth are to have a garrison of
30,000 men. _ . .

The Constitutional Journal of Bohemia states,
from Bucharest, that the Hungarian corps of PERCZEL
had entered Orsowa, but that the Turkish authorities
would not receive them until they had laid down
their arms.

It is stated by the Emancipation of Brussels that
the Kings of WURTEMBURG and BAVARIA, and the
Emperor of AUSTRIA, are about to have a conference
on the German question.
