The republic. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1849-1853, 1849-06-30

latter was achieved, by an unparalleled military
| consummation on both TANKS.
General Gorgey, now the successor OF Masuros
as Minister of War-Gorgey, young Hungarian
military genius like Napoleon, undertook this affair
of such high importance in the Slovakey, Coward
the northwest, where the main army of the In.
vaders entered) and the celebrated old General
BEN, German born in Gallicia, entrusted
with similar mission and authority IN Transyl
| vafia Both achieved their task in a manner which
showed that they are among the greatest generals
of our time. On the 29ih of December, Benz ar,
rived at Kausenburg, the only point of Transyl-
vanla which was still In possession of the Hungari-
ans. There he united the remnants of the Magyars
and Seeker troops with the forces which he
! brought, and suddenly fell on the Austrians under
| Malkowsky, near Maros Wachabelly, defeated
| them and drove them back through the Bukavna
to the city of Stanslaus, in Gallicia. He then re-
turned to Pennsylvania attacked Puchner, defeated
hum too, and pursued him to Hermanstadt He
was victorious IN some other battles, and was in
possession of all Pennsylvania, except Hermanstadt
and Cronstadt Ten thousand Russians then en-
tered Pennsylvania to assist the Austrians BEN
retired into the Szeckerand. There he organized
AN nsurrection of the Szecklers and as soon as he
succeeded in so doing, he began to take the often
sve. Puchner was already in Schasburg. Benz
turned this position, approached Hermanstadt de-
| feated there the Russians, drove them out of the
country, defeated afterwards Puchner, (who fol-
lowed the Russians and entered the city of Cron-
sadt. In this way Pennsylvania was re-conquereJ
and the Hungarian army freed from the enemy in
| his rear, where of mountains forms natural
| barrier.
| Al the same time General Gorgey was achieving
| his trlumphs in the north and west of Hungary.
From Pest he moved to the Slovakey, kept in check
| the Austrian main army two months, and as the
corps of General Gatz, 'eneral Chorich, and Gene
| RAJ Slmonich, had been reinforced, that against
4 he mi he m lopp r
make stand, he retired through the Carpates TO
| Epiries and Kaschau. Here he defeated General
Schlick, who was then obliged to give up his posi-
| ton, SO important for uniting with Windischgratz.
Gorgey then marched down the Theis and united
with the Hungarian army under Gems. Dembinsky,
Klapka, and Vetter. The main Hungarian army
| then passed the Theis defeated the enemy at all
points, and advanced to Hatwan six miles from
Pest The Austrians being here in superior num-
bcrs, The Hungarian army retired, defending Ko-
polna, Makar and Porozo; Gall these places are on
the river Theis) As Gorgey arrived on the banks
of the Theis, and had united with the Hungarian
main army, the signal for great advance was
given. Strengthened by the recruits, now well
exercised, the campaign presented new feature
German and Polish legion had been organized
the skill of the generals had been developed by ex-
perence, and instead of an organized mass without
leaders, as the Hungarians were in December, a
brave and well disciplined army headed by skilful
tories 70 mighty, irresistible stream, which has
already become the fear and sorrow of the Russian
despot
Now the main army, under the command of DEM
blnsky, Gorgey, and Vetter advanced to the Theis,
and afterwards TO the Danube. The right wing,
under Gen. Gorgey, marched again northwards to-
wards Eprles attacking the left wing of the enemy
and defeating him, driving him backwards to his
centre. This centre being beaten near Elau, Gyon-
syas, Gadolle, and Hatwan, retired suddenly from
Pest, as Gorgey threatened to cut him off.
The left wing Of the Hungarians, under the COM
mand of Gen. Veter, attacked the right wing of the
enemy under Jellaschich, and drove him from
Kechkemet TO Szolnook and Czeyled, defeated him
near Fash Barany, and pursued him to Pesth.
Here the Austrians were posted, their lines ex-
tending to Waitzen, along the Danube, surrounded
by the Hungarlans in half circle. As the Hun
garlans were not willing to expose Pesth to bonn
bardment from (Ofen) Buda, they resorted TO a
well-contrved expedient
They drove the Austrians out of their position
more by maneuvres than by an attack from the
front. General Gorgey took Waitzen, driving back
the Austrians to Grant defeated the corps of
Wogemuth, between Gran and Neutra, and re-
heved the fortress Comorn from the siege of the
Austrians.
The lmperiaists, threatened as above, were
Obliged to hasten their retreat. Weldon, the new
commander-in-chIef, in place of Windlschgratz,
returned TO Raab and Presburg, and Jeaschicn,
with his discontinued Croats, hurried down the
Danube to Slavonia.
| On the retreat of the Austrian Army, which re-
sembled flight, the Corps of Weldon, Schlick,
and Jellaschich, suffered great deal and mean
while the corps Of the latter could retire but slowly
through the eomiiats Of Toina and Barany. Wei
den tried TO gather the Of the whole army
1 near Presourg--remnsnts which were not able TO
make any serious resistance to the Hungarians.
In the south Of Hungary, the Magyar army was
not less successful. There the bold, irresistible
Hungarian general, Morritz Terczel, approached
the fortress Of Peterwarden relieved it from siege,
reconquered the Baska country. passed through the
Banat a hero, and united with General Benz who
advanced from Pennsylvania BEN is already in
possession of the fortress of Tenueswar and Arad.
Pezezel Is IN Wlrschats, the Turkish boundaries.
The Szecklers are overwhelming the encampments
of Transylvahia; the Hungarian (Landsturm) Ma
tlona Guards, that Of the mountain passes towards
! Poland, and Gorgey is on the Tablunka pass near
the MoravIan and Slesan boundaries, after having
taken the fortress of Buda.
In short, the Austrian army is totally ruined, the
Austrian monarchy broken down. Assistance of
Russia will cause her the loss Of Poland, If it do
not even drive her out Of Europe TO her Asatic ter
I ritories. The Prussian Government is exposed to
dissolution, soon as Poland is united and Silesia
becomes independent under Hungarian influence.
South Germany, encouraged by the wonderful he
roism Of the Magysrs, is progressing in It's repub-
llcan attalnments.
So, after bloody struggles Hungary, Germany,
Poland, and Italy, will become great republics in
| spite Of reactonary France, hypocriticai England
and despotc Russia, however venal press may try
! TO make the world believe the contrary.
