Commercial Summary. Liverpool Juiy 2SM
Commercial affairs during the past week have
presented no feature requiring particular remark
Trade prospects generally continue TO improve
rather than otherwise, and appearances Indicate
that business will continue active and healthy

goods fair business is going forward.
Breadstulfs in all the principal markets had
continued IN limited demand during the week,

England. The cholera has become alarming
ly prevalent in England. BY the official reports,
which, it is said, do not give one half the actual
cases, there were 67S deaths last week in Lon

rate of mortality is greater by one hundred per
cent than during the rage of the fever in lSi7,
the deaths by cholera last week having been 6lO
against 4G3 the previous week, and l97 in the
corresponding week last year. The fatal effects
OF the disease have beech somewhat abated along
the Southern coast.

Hungary and .4ustrid.-A very large and

London, at the London Tavern, to express pub

been laid before Parliament, and elected an in
teresting debate upon the affairs of Hungary
Lord Palmerston demonstrated the impossibity
of the government interfering, except by urging
the be!ligerents, for their own interest sake, TO
come some reasonable accommodation.
1t is certain that up tc the hour of the very la
test intelligence from the seat of war, there are
only reasons for entertaining the greatest conf
dence in the strength aud glory Of the Hunga-
rians, whotiider the enthusiasm created by Kos
suth, are routing in all directions the formidable
armamenls VI Two supendous despotisms.
1t is difficult to describe intclligibly the Mill
tary operations of the contending armies, as all
the accounts from Vienna to the 2lst ult. are
exceedingly confused aud contradictory. 1t is
admitted on all hands, however, that the treach-
erous Ban of Croatia, Jelachich, has been com
pletely defeated by the Magyars, under Bem.-
1t appears that BEN crossed the Fraze canal at
the head of $4,000 men, took the entertainments
of the Cronts by storm, and after series of com.
bats which lasted four days,compeIled the impe.

TO evacuate the Bncska
The troops of Ban, dspirted by the defeat and
diminished by sickness and combat, can make no
head against BEN, who has marched to the South
and the impcriuIsis fear that he will enter Syr-
mia and Sauvonla, as the Ban has been driven
over the Danube into SMYRNA and the Servian
chief, Knicanim, forced 20 leave his position at
Titel. General Ilaynau is gone with tie third
division to the support of the Ban.
Benz has entered Zombar amidst acclalna,ions
OF the people, and now at the head of 100000
men, in complete possession of the south of Hun
gary.
BEN writes from Bistrz, on the ID July, to the
effect that after having advanced in the Giealsa
10 Vascpleaz Eli and Bis'riz, he kept the Rus
slams shut up in the dolile near tho BosIo, with.
out having taken single man from the army
operating near Carsburgh Or against the Wal.
lachians. The Commissioner of the Hungarian
government, writes from llermanstadt, under date
Of 3D. July, that the Russians had been forced to
retreat to Cronstadt Benz was preparing TO at.
tack that city on the 9th or 9ih July, The seat
of the Hungarian government has been trans
ierrcd 10 Arad. This last circumstance proves
the assurance which BEN hopes to finish with the
Russians in Trhnsylvanla, and, on the other
hand, it confirms the defeat of Jellachich be-
cause if the army Of The South was still formd-
able, the Hungarian government would never
dare to select the city of Arad for its residence,
us it would be placed between two fires.
From "A bulletin by Prince Paskiewitch, pub

sion OF sharp acton winch occurred on the

the Russ Austrian Generals Sass md Ramberg.
The bulletin states that on the 18th the Hunga-

then occupied by the Russian Mussulman reg
