, HuNGARY.-Dseotg Of the Husgarians. The intel
hgence from the seat of war in Hungary is of the
most disastrous kind. The Hungarians have been
defeated all points, and the cause which thew cour
ageously upheld against fearful odds had fallen past
redemption. 4s.}l 81, ..--,.4,
The precise details of the circumstances which. led
TO this unfortunate and unexpected result cannot be-
asceralned from any accounts within reach. Part
OF the main facts that the Hungarians have been
forced to lay down their arms and submit uncondi-
tionally to the Russian forces.
There is no reason whatever to doubt the opera
lions of the Hungarians under BEN just preceding
the termination OF the struggle. They given in
an Ineligible form, and would seem from the ae
counts before us, to have had important influence
In bringing about the submission Of the Hungarians
Inc Vienna correspondent of the London Times,
under date of August 19, says San official report
of the sth, from Col. Dossler, who is at Hermans-
tad gives the particulars of what has taken place in
the southwest of Pennsylvania since the 4th, on
which date Gen. Laders was at Galfaya. After
BeIns defeat the 3lst ult. at Scherburg, he pro-
ceeded towards Medgeys, which he reached on the
Srd, with force of 5000 men and II guns; having
been Joined at this place by auxiliary corps from
Claurenburg, consisting of 4,000 foot 5000 horse
and IL guns, he proceeded towards Hermandstadt.
Gen. Hassford who had been left with six batalions,
eight guns and $50 Cossacks, to protect Hermans-i
tadt, had gone to Reisanekt and Luhlenback, where
he gained the victory mentioned yesterday the
insurgent General Steinall. This having been made
known to Gen. Luders by his scouts, he foresaw that
Benz would fall upon Hassford, probably drive him
into Waachia, and then take possession of Herman
stadt. Nothing remained to be done but to pursue
Benz with all speed. Before, however, Luders could
overtake him. he learned that Hassford had actually
been attacked, driven from his position, and after
murderous battle in the streets of Hermanstadt, in
which he had many killed and wounded, had been
obliged to retreat to Talmacs.
On the 9th. at 10 a. m. Gen. Luders' army stood
before Hermanstad six battalions of the enemy, 500
horse and ls guns occupying the neghboring
heights. considerable force had been left in the
city, and the remainder of the army had gone in pur
suit of Hassford.
A battle ensued which ended in the complete route
OF the Magyars. The Russian cavalry put such OF
the fugitves attempted to resist to the sword.
| The enemy, who lost 1900 prisoners and IA guns
in this battle, had 600 killed and 500 wounded
| The troops which had followed Hassford made the
best of their way after their routed comrades. .
] The Russians, including the loss suffered by Gen.
Hassford, the 5th, had So killed and wounded.
The battles of Scherrberk and Hermanstadt pro-
duced most dispiriting effect among the insurgents
Many threw away their and sought refuge In
the woods, while others over to the victors.
The Vienna accounts, by way of Warsaw, OF Au-
gust l6, state that the Hungarian Diet, having sur
rendered its powers to Georgey had dissolved ITSELF
A meeting, including Kossuth; GeorgeY and Benz,
subsequently took place at Arad, al which it
was determined at once to put an end to a war as
sanguinary useless. Georgey, addressing the
council of war; protested that he had no hopes tor
the Of Hungary; that all resistance was IN Van
and that nothing but utter ruin would attend the pro-
| 1ongation of the struggle.
Georgey's remaining, induced number of the
Hungarian generals to side with him on surrendenng
k0ffh tho hn-
sieging army at Temesvar, numbering in all from
SO, 900 to 10000 men that stood by Georgey. The
war party, headed by Benz, Kossuth, and the leading
members of the Hungarian Parliament, had nothing
have already entered upon Turkish territory, and II
is also stated that NJ Kossuth carried with him the
insignia of the Hungarian empire including the State
Jewels.
Georgey surrendered to Prince Paskiewitch un-
der the condition, if condition it can be called
that the Prince should intsrcede with the Austrian
empire for himself, his troops, and his country:
1t is asserted that Georgey's desperate resolution
prompted by the mutlnous conduct OF the hussaTs
Vienna letter in the Deutsche Rebore States the
number of troops that surrendered with Georgey to
have been $4,000 men, with 60 guns. :,
1t was thought that General kiaPka, too, would
now be induced to surrender, Comorn especially
as the city of Raab the 18th instant occupied
by the imperalists, who have likewise despatched
corps to the valley of the Wady.
From Vienna letter of the 18th in the kolner
Zeitung, it appears that M. Kossuth intends to hold
out till the last He has published proclamation
announcing the translation of his government from
Arad to Orrchora, where he is protected by the
! Hungarian army from the Baisk.
| The Russian papers publish the following lettel
from Prince Paskiewitch to his Majesty the Gar

ty. The government of the insurgents have trans
mited their power to Gorgey-the chief of the army
of insurgents makes unconditional surrender to tt
Russian army. His example will be followed by the
other insurgent corps. The officers whom he sent
capitulate offered to proceed with without Austrian
commissioners to the corps induce them to surrender

was to be allowed to lay down his arms to your mai

surgents to be dsarmed by Gen. Rudizul's corps
Respecting the extradtion of the prisoners am II

majesty's disposal"
it was rumored that the Emperor of Russia had
set price of 10000 rubles Kossuth's head, deat
or alive.
1t is reported by some of the ardent friends o
Hungary that Georgey has proved himself a traitor
and has yielded to the golden arguments of the Rus
slams.
Kossouth's wife and family, it is said, had falel
into the hands of the imperialist troops.
