TELEGRAPHC NERBosITY.-We hear frequent
complaints of the brief, incomplete and unsatis-
factory accounts which the telegraph furnishes OF

country II is said 10 furnish just enough to spoil
the details when they come to hand. Much OF
truth as there is in this charge, imagine the
telegraph, or those, more properly, who cater to
Its lightning uses, are equally open to opposite
complaint. Certainly, great part of the matter
published under the head of Geographic despatche
is the most useless and unimportant stuff imagina-
bic, which would not be noticed if received by due
course Of mail in the papers, but which, as il is
paid for at the rate of a cent word so, edtors
think they must spread out in their most promi-
ncnt type.
A daily reader Of city journals will not want for
illustrations Of this state of things, but here is one
occurring in the Congressional report of the New
York journals, that is more ridiculous than mos L
Of those we daily meet:
"Nr. Evans asked Mr.. Fitch 10 yield the floor.
Mr.. Fitch positively refused
Mr.. Evans said something.
Mr.. Fitch said something in reply"
OF what immense importance il is in these DAYS
oil Congressional verbosity, 10 know that "Mr
Fitch said something" ," and ''Mr Evans said some
thing in rcplyi' What emotions do such startling q
sentences, elongated to paragraphs waken in the
mind How the soul thrills, the great fact is
translated to 1t, that "Mr. Evans said something -
and what returning tide of feeling flows over it,

fact, that "Mr. Fitch said something in replyi''-

HUSGARY.-The Paris De6ais has the following
from Vienna. Auguat q,


| from Vienna, August 23
son the 18th, the fetc day of the emperor deplor-
able excuses took place at Pesth in Hungary. In
the course OF the morning the attitude of certain
groups looked rather threatening, but they were
not guilty of any acts which could give the police
motive for interference. In the evening, at the
theatre, things assumed different appearance.
While the first verses of the Austrian national
hymn were being sung by the actors, a group
OF spectators In the centre OF the pitt and composed
OF persons apparently belonging TO the respectable
class, began to protest by cries, whistling, and
threats.
"Thcr insulting vociierations were addressed to
the highest persons in the State. To put an end to
the scene OF tumult, the Intervention of the armed
force was called for, and from twenty to twenty
hvc persons were arrested. Their social position
and the moment chosen by them to promote dis
turbancc, were an aggravation Of their fault and
there was, moreover, their part n complete
want of political tact if not Of gratitude in hazard
ling a shameful demonstration against the emperor
immediately after the numerous pardons so gener-
ously granted by him. The authorities of Pesth,
instead OF understanding their duty in delivering up
these guilty men to justice allowed themselves to
be led away, either by the effect of indignation or
by misunderstood zeal, to use means which nothing
can excuse in civilized country, and to inniot
summary punishment without any form of trial.
"The most guilty of them were Immediately in.
corporatcd az private soldiers in regiment, and
the others had the bastnado applied to them at The
rate OF thirty strokes each.
"Aiiaits do not go well ia Croatia as could
have been wished. National demonstrations are
frequent; and, according TO occult Witnesses, the
Ban Jcachich does not exert himself sufficiently to
repress them. You aware that the town of
fiuine has already sent deputies TO Vienna, to de-
mand that il may be detached from Croatia, and
united TO the district of Fiume. This idea, which
VIII meet with many jealous advocates even in the
cabinet, will probably be carried OUT
