ARE ALL At WORE.

The time has now arrived for every Wing
to be active. By an united and concerted ctc
fort We may elect Henry NJ. Fuller Canal Com
missioner, and secure Wing majority in-the
State Legislature BY remaining idle few
weeks longer. we shall wake up to a sense of
our danger when it is to late TO secure full
attendance OF our Whig friends at the polls
Lct 1t not be urged that We cannot succeed,
and that there is therefore no use in making
the efsort. The hIttory OF the past shows the
fallacy Of such an criEien. Pennsylvania wss
carried for the lamented Harrison in lS40, and
again for James NJ. Power in 1916. In Oc-
tober 154S, the Wings again trlumphed with
Gov. Johnston as their candidate, and in No
yember following gave majority OF IA 600 Tor
Gen. Taylor. Let no one therefore excuse his
negligence and Indifference, with the ground
less assertion that we cannot succeed. Let all
go to work and see that the proper organlza
tioa is had 10 secure q fall Whig vote. This
need but be accomplished to elect Mr.. Fuller
by greater majority than that given for Gen
Taylor; for it must be borne in mind that
Mr.. Gamble cannot, under any circumstances,
receive as large a vote as tiut cest for Gen.
Cass.
There remains now but brief month to or
gaRiEe CUR forces and prepare them for the day
of election. If we wish TO succeed, we must
/ 90 TO work now. We cannot afford to lose
another day. The preparatory steps for eff
cient organization have already been too long
! delayed. Let US now arouse to our duty, and
I from kencetorth labor as we were wont TO do
in I540, '46 and'4S and there can be no doubt
! we shall again triumph.

HUNGARY,
Defeat of The H4ungari;lns.

The steamship Niagara, Capt Lang, arrived
at HoIiEax on Wednesday morning, bringing
five days late: intelligence from Europe. The
news from Hungary is of an extremely deplcra-
bic character. II seems that after several terri
bic conflicts, all terminating in the prostration
and defeat ofthe tiungarians GeOrgey has final
" been compelled TO Surrender to the Rus
slams.
The intelligence from the seat Of war in Hun
gary, is of the most disastrous kind. The Hun
garians have been defeated at all points, and the
cause which they so courageously upheld against
fearful odds, had fallen past redemption.
The pre-detaiIs of the circumstances which
led to this unfortunate and unexpected result
cannot be ascertained from any accounts within
our reach. Part Of the main facts are that the
iungarians have been forced 10 lay down their
arms and submit conditioaally to the Russian
forces.
A meeting, including hOssuth, Georgey and
BEN subsequently took place at or near Arad,
at which it was determined at once to put an
end to a war as sanguinary as useless. Georgey
addressing the Council of War pfotcste that he
had no hopes for the cause OF ofHungary-that all
resistance was in vain and that nothing but ut
ter ruin would attend the proiongation of the
struggle. Georgeys remaining induced num-
Der Of the Hungarian Generals TO side with him
on surrendering net oniy Georgey's corps, but
also part of the beseiging army at Tamasoac-
numbering in all from 80 goo to $4,000 men-that
stood Ge0rgey and the war party, headed by
BEN, Kossuth and the leading members of the
Hungarian Parliament, had nothing left but to
hasten to Opovs. Il is stated that they have al
ready entered upon Turkish Territory, and it is
also stated that NJ. kossuth carried with him
the insignia OF the Hungarian Empire, inclu-
ding the State jewels,
Georgev surrendered 10 Prince Paskiewitch
under the one condition, if condition il can be
called, that the Prince should intercede with
the Austrian Emperor for himself, his troops
and his country.
1t is asserted that Georgeys desperate resolu-
ton was prompted by the mutinous conduct Of
the Hussars.

becomes the duty of the Wing party TO recon-

Powers term, in the Canal Board, will have

larly TO the uneasiness prevailisg in the public
mind regarding the reported designs of Presi-
dent Bonaparte and his Ministers, in references
to a change in the form of the Constitution,
preparatory TO declaring Louis Napoleon En-
iaror or Consul for life. Although the official
Journals endeavor to discredit these rumors,
vet they were acquiring a certain degree Of
consistency NJ. Ledru Rollin had returned to
Paris to stand his trial. M. Pierre Bonaparte
had been fined 206 francs for striking NJ. Gas
tier in the Legislative Assembly. The opening
of the Paris and Strssbourg and Paris and Ly-
ons Railways had been indefinitely postponed.
The weekly returns Of the Bank of France were
unfaYorable.
The treaty of peace between Austria and
Sardinia had received the ratification of the two
powers.
The latest intelligence from Vienna informs
us that a battle had taken place on the 5th of
August, between the IlungariaDs and Imperial
lists, near Szegeden, which continued unintcr-
ruptedly for several hours, and on which oc-
cason, we regret to learn, the Magyars were
defeated, losing five pieces of artillery and 400
prisoners, amongst whom was Prince Wore
nzsky. During this engagement, Gen Rom
berg forced the passage of the Thesis at Ramska
and captured two or three field pieces and num-
Der of prisoners. By these combined successes,
the whole Imperial Army was said to be again
united Other accounts from Vienna mention
that the Huagarians had taken possession of
Vcsprim and Papa, and were tkres2ening Pesth.

FuLLER's PoPULARITV.-The popularity Of
our candidate fer Canal Commissioner, Mr. Full
Ter, says the Harrisburg Telegraph, may be infer
red from the position he occupies at home, IN
Luzerne county and from the fact, that he was
elected to the Legislature last fall by the peo-
pie of that county, which has usually given Lo-
cofoco majority Of from eight hundred TO one
thousand, by amaj0ri.y Of almost fourteen hundred
rotes We may we'll be proud of such nomi-
nee.
FEoM EVERY portion Of our commonwealth,
we are in the receipt of good news with regard
to the coming election. The nomination of Mr.,
Fuller, appears to have infused 3 new spirit in
to the party and aroused ats members to action.
The election is pregnant with Importance, and
we expect to see every Pennsylvania do his
duty.

Finances or PENNsYLyASIA-The State
Treasurer of Pennsylvania has just published
an official statement of the finances OF Penn
syyania, frcm which it appears that there was
in tic Treasury, on the l4th inst after the pay,
ment Of all expenses, ordinary and exiraord!-
nary, balance to the credit of the State of no
less than S305, I65 90, while from the second
part, being the Treasurer's estimate of the state
Of the finances on the lst of February, 1850, it
appears that there will be, on that day, cred
it balance of 1854 236 IL. applicable, as an un-
appropriate excess, under the act of A pril 10Th,
to the completion of the North Branch Canal.
The Treasurer says;
The large appropriation of over 81 100000
to the Public Works, by the late General AS
sembly, will discharge the State Indebtedness
thereon and will free the Treasury the coming
year Of that burthen. In consequence we may
safely calculate that no more than $500, ,096
will be required by the State Works the en-
suing year. In this view of the subject, there
can be no hesitancy, in saying that the State
debt may be reduced at least three hundred
thousand dollars next year, and at the same
time give, Under the act of the 10Th of april
last, the sum of from $3.50, 900 to 5000, 900
towards the completion of the North Branch
