HUNGARY

The Hungarians were partially defeated
by the Austrian troops on the 2lst, and were
forced to retire beyond he Waag, where,
from the nature of the country they will he
better able to repel the advance of the in.
vading forces.
1t appears from letters in the Austrian
and German journals that engagements have
recently taken place between the Austrians
and Hungarians, at Kapovar, Syred, and
on points of the Waag, but whilst some as.
cribe the victory to the Austrians, others
give it to the Hungariane. The German
Reform, which hitherto has been favorable
to the AusIrians, says that they have sus-
tanned sewers checks.

CHINA.
From China, we learn that the Emperor
had refused to carry out the stipuations Of
the two treaties, which provided that Can
ton should be open to foreigners. In the
communication of Sere, the Governor Of
Canton, to Mr.. Bonham, he says the Empe
ror had determined that as the people o.
Canton have refused to receive foreigners
into the town, how can he force an opposite
course to the people
From the nature of the proclamation il
is quite plain that the authorities were pre-
pared to resist the entrance of the foreign
ers into tina city of Canton. A great sac
riice of human blood has been averted by
Lord Palmerston having given special di
rections that nothing more should lie done
than to report the Reputation of the treat!
