AND

THE NORTHERN STATES.

AUSTRIA.

True to the Metternich tactics of "enormous
lying," the Austrian Government has published an
official report of the number of troops killed in the
assault upon Vienna, and in the battle with the Hun-
garians, which states that 109 only of the military
were killed. This number is so ridiculously small
that the official statement carries falsehood on the
face of it. But, admitting it to be correct, it preves
that WINDISCHGRATZ'S bombarding the city was
completely without excuse, for if in all those various
attacks he only lost log men, the resistance could
not have been so desperate as he pretended it was,
and the bombarding the city was a piece of gratuitous
cruelty, of which we should have imagined even a
Croat would have been ashamed. The fact is, we
believe, that the number of military killed has been
so enormous that WINIMSCHORATZ does not dare to
publish a correct statement of his losses.

The Cologne Gazette states that BEM and AIES-
SENEIAUSER have been arrested. The statement,
however, cannot be relied on.

KOSSUTII, at the head of 13,000 men, arrived at
Presburgh on the Ist November. It is said that he
intends falling back upon Pesth, there to await the
attack of the Imperialists.

VIENNA, Nov. 4.-I.lis Majesty the EMPEROR, has
addressed an autograph letter of the following purport
to the Diet :

" The temporary removal of the Diet to Kremsier has
been determined upon by me with the best intention, in
order to the uninterrupted course of its deliberations,
and I hope that the return of perfect order in my capital
city of Vienna, may speedily permit of the continuance
of is deliberations there.

"FERDINAND.
" WESSENBERG."

The Weiner Zeitung likewise contains an Imperial
edict, countersigned by WESSENBERQ as Ministerial
President, and KRAUS, Minister of Finance, relative
to the budget of the expenses of the State for the
administrative year, 1849. This royal decree is
dated " our Royal Capital City, 011inutz."
The Breslau Zeitung contains some interesting
particulars respecting the taking of the city of
Vienna :

"Immediately after the entrance of the Imperial
troops, the Aula was found to be deserted both by the
students and workmen, and a quantity of arms, car-
tridges, &c., lying scattered about, in the wildest
disorder. Above 2,000 Proletaires, the greater num-
ber of whom are foreigners, and many of these Poles,
have been apprehended, and are now under arrest in
the building of the Italian Guard. The total disap-
pearance of the students is easily accounted far by
their having exchanged their academic uniform for
the ordinary civil dress. Lieutenant lIAGENBILUCK,
who was cashiered, has been arrested at Presbur g. It
is said that he confessed having been hired by the
Commandant of Knasvar to murder KOSSUTH. All
the Croats and Sclavonians who had quitted their
country, and joined the Magyar movement, were
called upon by the Banat Chamber of Agram to re-
turn home, and the property of those who have not
yet obeyed the command has been sequestrated.

In North Hungary the intelligence that a Galician
corps d'arrnee of 14,000 men was approaching had
caused a great panic. These troops will, it is said,
advance to the Danube through the country of
Scacose.

General LIMONIC has made an eruption at Chacza
into the country of Trenscheine, where he maintains

his position.

The fortress of Munkaes has been taken by the
regiment Hartmann, which has been joined by the
Rathenens.

The tone at Prague has been extremely depressed
since the fall of Vienna. The Czesches now see that
with the fall of the capital they have lost everything.
The Emrsuoit. will not now come to Prague, al-
though the Imperial fetcher had already arrived
here, and all the preliminary preparations had been
made.

The German districts, especially about REichen-
berg, are in a state of much excitement and distress.

The fair at Brunn has turned out badly ; there is
no market for the goods at Vienna, and all the manu-
factories are closed.

WINDISCHGRATZ is said to be under orders to pro-
ceed to Hungary as soon as it is possible to settle mat-
ters at Vienna. JELLACHICH is to make an attack upon
the mountain cities, and then to take up his winter
quarters in the Slovakee.
