HUNGARY.

Letters from Pesth of the sth instant announce
that the deputation of one hundred Hungarian re-
presentatives, who proceeded to Vienna to have an
interview with the Emperor, had returned that day,
announcing that the Emperor had refused to receive
them. The greatest agitation prevailed at Pesth.
A ccmrnittee had been appointed to prepare two
manifestoes—one to be addressed to the nations of
Europe, and the other to the inhabitants of Hungary.
Commissaries were to he dispatched into the provinces
by the Diet. It was likewise intended to appoint a
committee to negotiate with the Croatians, and to make
to them all reasonable concessions. In the meantime
the war continued between the Hungarians and the
Croatians with various success. In the last engage-
ment the Croatians had been defeated.

WALLACHIA AND MOLDAVIA.
The Paris National publishes a letter from Bucha-
rest of the 24th ult., stating that a Constituent As-
sembly was to meet in that city on the 11th Sep.
tember. It was to, be elected by universal suffrage,
and to consist of 2.50 members. Turkey was, it ap-
pears, ready to consent to the union of Moldavia and
Wallachia into an independent kingdom, with a view
to raise a barrier against the encroachments of Rus-
sian Panslavism, but the Sultan did not find
himself sufficiently supported by England and
France. Soleyman Pacha had recognised the Pro.
visional Government elected a third time by the
people of Bucharest. lie only required, in order to
propitiate Russia, that the number of its members be
reduced from five to three, and that it should as-
sume the name of " princely lieutenancy." Those
changes being once effected, he addressed a circular
to the Consuls of the Foreign Powers, inviting them
to open official relations with the Provisional Go-
vernment, which he undertook to defend against the
attempts of the reactionists, by placing the Turkish
army, if necessary, at its disposal.

PIEDMONT.
The National Savoisien of the 11th again repeats
the rumour that the Sardinian Chambers are to be
prorogued to the 16th of October. The troubles of
Genoa, it is said, have been the cause of the suspen-
sion of the measure. It also speaks of a confede-
ration said to be concluded between the Italian
powers, namely, Sardinia, Tuscany, Rome, and
Naples, the latter on the condition that the Duke of
Genoa do not accept the crown; of Sicily, and
that all the powers should offer their mediation
between Sicily and Naples, to induce the former to
accept one of the sons of Ferdinand. It appears that
the park of artillery belonging to Sardinia, which
had been retained by the Austrians at Peschiera is to
be given up by them. 1,500 cavalry have arrived at
Cremona to escort it back into the Sardinian states.
The Genoa papers contain a proclamation dated
the 7th, from Major General Durando. The tone
of this document is very conciliatory, and re-
commends the Genoese not to give themselves
up to turbulence and illegality ; the following passage
is remarkable :—" The armistice is near expiring ; war
is almost inevitable. At any rate we shall have either
a really honourable peace, or a new war with the co-
operation of our powerful neighbours." Letters from
Alexandria, in these journals, state that French sol-
diers were arriving there in parties of from 10 to 15.
Most of them had come, as their feuilles de route
show, from Chainhery, and Geneva, others from the
Simplon. Three thousand of them were expected;
they belong to a great variety of corps.
The Pensiero Italiano of Genoa, of the 9th,
announces the arrival on that day of the British war-
steamer Sidon, Captain Anderson, direct from Naples ;
it brought no news from Sicily. The Minister of
War at Turin has published a proclamation to the
soldiers of Lombardy, placing them under the same
discipline as the Piedmontese troops. They are
addressed as new subjects of Piedmont.
