The beautiful residence Of Dr.. J. J. Up
degraffin Jackson township in this county,
was entirely consumed on Monday night
last, between IL and O'Clock. The fire
il is supposed, originated in the back room
below, and extending up between the stud
ding 10 the wall plate above, broke out
through the plastering, and when the Doc
tor awoke he found the head board and pill
low Of his bed on fire. He had barely time
to escape with his children. Nothing was
saved but some little bedding and few
books. His library Of about 1900 volumes
and his surgical instruments, the best col
! lection this side of Philadelphia, which he
valued at $4,000, were all destroyed. HI
estimates his whole loss at about $S,50(
part of which $3.50 is covered by insu'
rance in the Lyconing Mutual Insurance
Company.

lmperialists. 1t appears that their losses, in
killed and wounded and captured men and
cannon, were BY far greater than it was first
presumed. The retreat Of the lmperialisis
from Raab was all but race, in which the
soldiers cast away their muske,s, swords and
knapsacks, while the Russians, doffing their
long coats, which arrested their onward pro.
gress arrived at Presburg in their shirt
sleeves. Some artillery horses were saved
by the traces being cut. Rumor speaks Of
FIVE baitalions Of foot which are missing, and
among these the lmperalists that have been
actually engaged bear the marks Of the sa.
bres Of the formidable Hussars.
1t is understood at Vienna that all the SOL
diers that marched on the 5,h inst. will de-
ser, the frs, opportunity. Nor are these SEN
timent. confined to the troops that marched
from Vienna after the affair at Raab. We
learn from the letters of one Of our CORES.
pondenis, THAT General Haynau, on setting
out for the south, left in she camp near Co.
morn several officers, both Russians and Aus
,rians, and considerable body Of troops,
who had evinced symptoms of insubordina-
tion and sympathy for the Hungarans.-
No sooner did these officers and men see
Kapka's forces advancing in the direction OF
Raab, then mounting their horses, they pro.
ceeded in a body in the same direction
Pursuit was impossible, for the Imperialists
were inst then in full retreat
Reported Defeat Of Paskiccitch.
Prince OIloff arrived at Vienna on the iof
from the headquarters of Paskiewitch; he
brough, the intelligence of the route Of Pas
kiewitoh's army by Georgey. No bulletin hae
been published, and the imperialists in Vi
emma were in state of panic. The commu
nica,ions between Pesih and Vienna are en-
tirely cut off by the Magyars, who, it was ru
mored had re,aken Pes,h and Buda Th'
army Of Haynau, even if he should have ei
fected his junction with Jellachich, is nov
completely isolated.

DEFEAT OF THE HUNGARIANS,

The arrival of the Niagara brings intelli-
gence that every true patriot must regret.
The Vienna accounts by way of Warsaw,
of August 10th, state that the Hungarian
Diet, having surrendered its powers to
Georgey, had Dissolved itself.
A meeting, including Kossutb, Georgey
and Bem, subsequently, took place at, OF
near Arad, at which it was determined a,
once to put an end to the war as sanguina.
ary and useless. Georgey, addressing the
council of war, protested that he had nc
hopes for the cause Of Hungary-that all
resistance was in vain, and that nothing
but utter ruin would attend the prolonga.
ton of the struggle.

HUNGARIAN NEWS.

The news from Hungary is highly inn
portant and interesting. Though the Hun
garians have met some reverses, they have
on the whole, been successful. The Hun
garians, like the Americans in the Revolu-
ton, are acting on the defensive, and al
ways, if possible, avoid pitched battle.
The policy of the Hungarians is to attack
the enemy IN detail or small parties, and
in making such sallies as the late exploit in
the recapture of Raab, by which the allied
armies Of Austria and Russia lost an i'm
niense amount of stores intended for the
subsistence Of their army. In this way
when their supplies are cut off, the enemy
will soon be used up, as Austria and Russia
combined are not able to bear the enor-
nous expense Of keeping large armies any
length of lime in Hungary. Gen. Gorgey
is reported to have had number of en-
gagements with the Russian Gen. Grabbe
in his retreat, after having broken through
the Russian lines. Gorgey isa native Hun
garlan and the favorite General. Though
young man, great reliance is placed on his
valor, his wisdom and sound judgment
Like our own Washington he never sacri.
fees his men or fights battle but from
sheer necessity, or when some important
point is to be gained. There is report
that battle mad taken place in Transyl.
vania, in which Luders had gaineda victory
over BEN. This, however, wants confirm
alton. The Austrian government it is ru
mored, are desirous of negotiating with th'
Hungarians. They are evidently alarmed
and will probably soon find it necessary t
take care of themselves. There is certanl
prospect that the gallant Hungarians viii
triumph.

~ GEN. HAYNAu.-This A austrian Butch
er is said to be the son of the infamous elec-
tor of Hesse Cassel, who sold his subjects
at SO much head, to George the III. to
prosecute the war against the American
Colonies during the Revolution. He is a
fit subject for such bloody work. His
butchery of number Of citizens ofBrescia,
Upper Italy, and his vile proclamation
against the inhabitants Of Buda Pesth, are
worthy Of the young tyrant Francis Joseph,
and his butcher General.

THE SUNBURY FACTION.

The Miltonian is trying to play the old
game in getting up prejudice against the
ticket, by saying that "all the officers"
were from this side of the river. Now let
us see how the facts are. For Assembly it
is conceded that we are entitled to the
member on the principle Of rotation, as the
member for the last two years was taken
from the Forks.
For Register & Recorder, if we were en-
titled TO it last fall, there is certainly no
reason that we should not have it now,
when vacancy occurs. For Treasurer it
is settled matter, that he should reside at
the county seat, and as no other portion Of
the county claimed it, no fault can be found
on that score. Then what grounds can there
be for complaint. The only office claimed
at the Convention by the Forks, which they
did not get, was that of Register & Recor-
der, and as their own delegates awarded
that office TO this side, why should we be
now reproached with what they themselves
have done. In regard to Canal appoint.
ments, there will not be, surely, any com.
plants. We can't say exactly that there
is law against any Sunbury man holding
such an appointment, but there might a.
well be; and as our neighbor has his hand
in, he might have an act passed for thai
purpose next winter.
