GERMANY.  THE MURDER OF COUNT LAMBERO CONFIRMED. PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT IN PESTH. AUSTRlA.—lntelligence was received at Vienna on Oct. from Perth up to the midnight of the 29th Sept. The murder on that day of Count Lemberg, the newly-appointed commander-in-chief of all the troops in Hungary, announced by us yesterday, was the signal for open insurrection. The Diet, on the 28th, unanimously passed a resoleties, to the effect that, in the absence of a government, it elected, u a provisional one, the committee et six who were appointed a fortnight before to aid Bethyani in war matters—ench committee to have =limited and tall powers. Up to midnight all the national guards were under arms, and great excitement prevailed. The way in which Count Lemberg was murdered was as follows :—So soon as the infuriated populace of Path had learned that he had arrived to replace the Archduke Stephen, they assembled are the house in which he had intended to take up his residence. Finding that the crowd was ripe for mischief, he contrived to leave the premises, and crowed over the bridge to Buda, where he sought refuge in the house of the commander-in-chief. The building, however, was speedily attacked, and the count, in disguise, attempted to regain Path in a carriage, in order to deliver his credentials to the Hungarian diet Whilst crowing the bridge he was recognised, his name was pronounced aloud, and he was instantly out down by a number of men armed with spades and scythes. He was then literally hacked and hewed to pieces. He has left a widow (a native of Ranges') and eight children to mourn his unhappy fate. In another account it is stated that the count first proceeded to Buda, and that it was whilst making the second attempt to cross the bridge, in order to communicate to the Diet the order of his imperial muter, that he was killed in the manner described. It may be stabil here that the national guards had previously resolved not to obey the royal commissioner, and that the Did itself had denounced as a traitor any person vie should attempt to give publicity to any royal airman not duly countersigned by ministers. The committee of six had given orders for the arrest of the murderess of Count Lemberg. During the . late contest at St. Thomas's haleness the H and the Servians the Samar lint 1,300 in killed and wounded and 16 guns. On the 27th ult. the Hungarian Diet declared null and void all the ecdonnanoes of the Emperor not ountanigned by a minister, and forbade. Count Lemberg to take the command of the Hungarian troops. The Austrian Minister of War has forwarded a circular to all the officers of the army, warning them against indulging in any expressions hostile to the oonstitutional institution granted by his Imperial Majesty to his people. The quarrel of the reporters of the public press with the Condiment Assembly had been settled, the former having obtained all that they required, us. a suitable entrance to their gallery, and a general room for assembling in. There were 40,000 troops in Vienna and its immediate vicinity. The Hungarian ministers, Bathyani and Eotvos, had arrived at Vienna from Perth. The ministry having determined to publish an appendex to the laws of the ran without ou= the amembly, some fresh disturbances; were at Vienna.
