      ' Wanderer * adds that _Geir _^ y _, having submitted on the 13 th , sent commands to the garrisons of Peterwardein andComcim to follow bis example and lay down tbeir arms . Arad had already surrendered . Another report describes the Hungarian government a 3 having _re'reated to Orsowa , and mentions a _procJama _' _-ioa of Kossuth declaring this . The Schutt seems to ba tha place where _warlftc "M agyarism is most _active at present . Here thc troops of Kiapka seems _itill to hold the _sair . c threatening front towards Presburg . Iveulra has been abaadoaed by the Ma _^ vars .

      Tne transportation of the Ban ' s troops ? . _cress the Danube was tffectcd on th (* 1 st . On the ni ght of the 7 ih , the corps suitVm d s . _i . ne loss before the lines of Porloss , _siihin which there were 4 , 000 Magyars . Oa the following day these were abaadoaed and occupied by the Ausirian .-. _Pancsova was evacuated without resistance . Tbe _unfortunate Major Lspier , _burgerrasister of Paucsova , whose daughter had proved such an o _'* -j _* et of attraction to the captain of the _Dautchbaiiarer _regiment , whom Jellachich ordered to be put in irons after bjs defeat at He-ryes , on a charge of treason , was shot by _sentence of court-martial .

      Bem , ia his last bank , got a heavy fall , and cur ' his shoulder , lbs - aat-: l » . which be left in the _junule under Temesvar , is now in the hands 0 ; General Hayinu . A _consider- _* ble magazine of arm-. was found at _Lippa . If Temesvar had not b ? e ; i _relieved by Haynau shortly , disease would no ' , have left a man _li-erc _aliv- * . Oa the day of tbe Auatriin connnandw ' s arrival , 120 men of the _-rarrisoii died . Tbe re-ocenpation of Jlaab by the Imperialists has been already officially announced ia the * * Wiener Zeitung' as follows : —

      - Raab was occupied by the Austrian trcops on the loth . The burned bridge at Abda - _* as replaced , and a squadron of hussars , left behind in the city , was expelled by a division of imperial cuirassiers . Ai ! preparations were _wdde for a general assault , but the enemy retired , without accepting battle , to Comorn . ' It does not appear , however , that a rfgubr direct _c-imniuoication has been yet re-established with Pesth . Thc Magyars still maintain tlieir ground iu the Schutt , and their outposts are in Bos . _Deneral Czorich was ia Presburg 011 tha _Ifith , and the batiaiioas sent _sudit _;* iy into the Schutt defiled _bafore bim . These troops , how-< *" ver , were presently countermanded and sent ty

      Raab . A Berlin correspondent _writes , on ( lie 21 st ult .: — 'Local politics have lost their interest in tha presence of the last Hungarian ' events . We have received here from Russia and Warsaw fragmentary intelligence concerning the last movements of Georgey , which _nisy be woven into ihe _following connected nairative . Georgey was , on the 2 nd ult ., in the neighbourhood of lie confluence of the _Herni-d with the Theiss . As we ses from Kossuth's letters , he had orders to join the army en the Theiss and Mates . _Paskiewhcb , however , having occupied Debreezin on the 2 nd ult ., _Georaev Lad no other read left but

      tbat of Nyiregyhoza and _Naey Karoly , * ar . d ii possible he would form a junction with Bem at the foot of tbe mountains of Transylvania . In the -meantime _Nacy Saudor , whose mission it was to keep Paskiewitch in check so as io facilitate Georgey ' s _passage southward , was attacked by the Russian army corps under Rudiger and that under _Caprianow . together with detachments _cotnaianded by Generals _Bebntow and Giilenschmidt , and beaten in a blosdy battle , tiie details of which have just appeared ia a Russian bulletin . Georgey bad in the meantime passed , with forced marches , to the east of Debreezin , ir _^ m « hich he was only thirtyfive wersts distant tbe day alter the battle . So far , the Russian bulletins .

      The - _Kurisr v . arsav : ski' helps us ta a - step or two mora in tbis strange journey . AVhen the Hungarian leader seared the mountainous basis of Transylvania belearned the fate of Bern-. who ; after various encounters with Luders and _Srotenhielm , "had _t-urnsd towards _Hennamistadt , and received before _Herra-Min' - ' . adt and * m the streets of tbat city a severe defeat en the 5 th ult ., at the hands of ibr Russian General _Hs-iforf , 2 nd was th : ? n , by reinforcements _despatched Jong before from Kossuth

      enabled to reach tbe _Maroe , which he crossed at St . Ivary _, and fr-m * ' . hence reached Klausarhurg , from which place be made his way So Arad . But on the 6 th-ie was overtaken at _Grosscheuren by Luders , and deff ated in a blood y engagement , which lasted twelve hours . His troops being pursued , dispersed among the mountains . Georgey , followed on his ri g ht flank still by Rudiger , left _Grossvaradein , as he had dene _Debreezin , to the ri ght , and so came to Vilagos on the 13 th . _¦?""" _" ?

      A letter from Vienna , dated August 21 st , slates , that notwithstanding tbe cessation oi hostilities is _Huscary , after the news of _Georgey ' s surrender , a _frcsbregiment of infantry left Warsaw to join- th _* army of _Paskiewitcb .

      KOSSUTH TO THE NATION . After the unfortunate battles , with which God in these last days has _iSicisd this people , we have no longer any hope of being able to cortume onr struggle of self-defence against the great mi ght of the united Aus ' riaF . _s and Russians , so as to achieve a successful result . Under such circumstances , the salvation of the nation and the security ot" its future , can only be expected from ihe general who s ' . ands at the head of the army , and according to the clearest conviction of my mind , the confinusnea of the _preseur government in effice , would not only be useless to the naticn , bnt even harmful . I therefore make _ktown ti the _Ilungary-n people , that inspired wilh tliat j ure feeling of patriotism , which has guided my every step , and devoted my whohexistencc to the fatheilaud , for mvself , and in the

      ¦ name of tha who' * ministry , I retire from tbe govermsenr , and I invest with the supreme civil and _miiit-j try power , General Arthur G-crgey , fcr as Ions as tbe nation , according to its right , dispose net otherwise . I _expect from -fcisi , and make him , therefore , before G : d , lbs _iatisn , and histay , responsible , tbat beexereUeibis power accordingto his best strength for the saving of thc _national and political _independence * cf our poor _ennntry and its fatnre preservation . May he love bis fatherland with thc S 3 iae d ' _iki'erested affection tha' I do , and may he be more _fonnnale than I have _been in founding t ' ne prosperity of the nation . I can serve thc _fathsrl md no longer usefully by action . Ii m death c' _-ul-l do the _cc-uui-y good , i would lay down ray life _f-.-r it with joy .

      KOSSUTH'S CORRESPONDENCE WITH BEM . Thc following letters , found in tbe travelling caleche of Bem , which was captured at the battle of Scbassburg , and written by Kossuth to the commander of the army in Transylvania , have been given to the world in the' Oesterreschische _Corrcs-•¦• indents . ' They appear to be only a small fraction of the documents which fell into the hands o { tbe Austrians on that occasion , but they are replete with interest , and throw much light not only on the war , hut upon the character of the man tvho has been its soul—Louis Kossuth .

      The first of these letters was written by the Governor to Bem on the day after he issued that celebrated proclamation of the 27 th of June , calling upon the people to unite in a general crusade against the invaders . Georgey , after the capture of Buda , had aken command of the army in the north , and was at this moment retreating before Paskiewitch through Miskolcz to Waitzen and Comorn . Kossuth contemplated this retreat without _makm- _** a stand as a fatal mistake , pregnant with ruin to the Hungarian cause . He mentions particularly in his proclamation the advantages for defence presented _^ iy Erlau , and urges the landsturm to build barricades thera . Anything to stay the Russians from reaching Pesth before a decisive blow could be dealt hy KUpka on the army of Haynau . He therefore determined at once to abandon the defence ct

      Transylvania , to hung Ban v * yuy _ws whole corps to Grosswaradein _, and appoint him commander-in-chief of the Hungarian army . This abandonment to Paskiewitch of the whole road from the Dukla fo Pesth , without striking a blow , was the origin of disagreement between Kossuth and Georgey , whom the governor had not long before appointed Minister of War . He now sent Georgey his covge , appointed Messaros Minister of War , and Dembinski Commander-in-Chief of the forces , Bem not being able to disengage himself from Tranvslvauia .

      In all these letters of Kossuth are stamped the qnali'ies which distinguish the greatest men . Hn sees instantly the thing tobe done , and sets about the doing cf it with an irresistible energy of will . He works with the spirit of a man who sees at hand distinctly the event , which others cau only _ragufly surmise . ' To save the country this must fie done . ; if this is not done we are lost . ' Such is liis lantuage . Clear of eye , strong of will , indefatigable in work , just in purpose , of a loving tender heart . Nothing about bim strained ; plain in speech and strai g ht . forward in dealing ; with an utterance full of fervour when he harangues the multitude , full cf ease and even at times humorous and playful when he writes

      • o a friend . His style is prrgnant with genius . Each transition brings a fresh mood , which clothes itself in the most apt language . He stops to make an arithmetical calculation ofthe impossibility of furnishing Bern with the bank notes which he asks for , with all the fxacluess that could be _demand-d from a senior optime . Then lie flashes out absut Bern ' s suspension of the cnnstitu ' . ion . Now be is fretted by the dissensions of the generals in the Banat , * when all must be as one or we are lost : ' ' but if we can only achieve the concentration of oar forces , we will beat the Russian and Austrian corps , one after ths other , and conquer thc _freedom of thc world . '

      • the governor cf the land to _ueutenaxtflELD MAR £ nAL HEM . Lieutenant-Field-Marshal , — The _corps-d ' armee of 6 nrgey overmatched has retreated without battle to . Miskolcz . The generals , chiefly cut of fear 01 being crushed snd dispersed by the enemy ' s cavalry , 18 , 000 strong , will not risk an _encasement * , their idee fixe te to unite with orr main army , and they reflect not that thereby they bring the Russian army about our ears here , and leave us 110 time to deal a decisive blew against the Austrians , so that we shall fall between two fires . I announce this lo Lieut .. Field-Marshal , in the firm conviction thai we cau

      only be saved by a rapid concentration of all our forces ( which will then be placed under your cora-. mand-in-chief . ) We shall have the Russians in a _week at Pesth ; still worse , we shall liave them in the rear of our army . We will do what is possible . I await news from you most anxiously , ( Sit * iicri ) Kossuth , Governor . Pestb , June 28 , 1 S 49 .

The

      in-, , telligence it contains decerning the Russian invasion in Transylvania was already known td me . The death of Colonel Khz , at _Crciiitadt , has pained me deeply . I regret to see that the Lieut . Field-Marshal cannot come from Transylvania into tbe Banat . Great is the danger there too , as it 1 * 3 , in fact , everywhere . Now come our heaviest days . May God bless our endeavours , for truly we need it . In the Banat there is perpetual squabbling among the commanders . And yet Without order ,

      coherence -and union we are lost . For the Bacs-Bauat , since the Lieut . Field-. Marshal cannot come , we have arranged thus . There are three corps d ' armee ; 1 . The cue formerly commanded hy Vecsey , now by Guyon , 2 . The _Bacs corps of Perczel , now commanded hy Toih . 3 . That which you , Lieut . Ficldr-Jarsbal , were to lead there in person , in compensation for the auxiliary corps sent you to Deva , commander of the corps Banffy .

Perczel . 1 have sent hira the n _? _c-- £ sary instructions ; but I beg that ycu will also have the goodness , _Li-mt . Field-Marshal , on your part , to inform the military coro-• _nandeis detached from your army that , so long as thfy are separated from tbat array , ' _"hf-y must regard as their commanding officer the pers . n who is so appointed by the government . In the present instance this is General Vetter _, since you are prevented from coming yourself . I must sincerely and openly declare my opinion , that if we can conenntrate onr forces rapidly , rapidly mind , the country is

      saved ; if not , it : s lost . My heart bleeds lo say it , but I do say it with tbe firmest conviction , ihat if this were done quickly I would be ready to give up whole provinces , yea , four-fifths of the whole land , to see our forces concentrated with rapidity . For so we shall beat the enemy , and tlie enemy bealen , the provinces are cur ' s agaiu ; but the army scattered tbe nation is ruined , and the provinces avail us not a jot . Therefore it were my wish , that you came with your whole force to unite with the other corps , apd took the ccmlihar . der . in-chief ; so shall we beat onr enemies in detail , one after tbe other ; and conquer the freedom of the world . If this is not practicable , then I test that within a fortnight we shall have a catastrophe . Meanwhile , I will defend the country to the last man . I have just

      summoned thc whole Hungarian people to arms . The order ba 3 bten despatched to Grosswaradein to get ready in the course of this aud next week the two batteries , and to send tbem to you iniirediately , as 1 _iromised . Whether they were to he horse or foot bateries I know not . But I believe tbat a foot battery is better to-day than a hors _** _^ battery in a couple of weeks , for who knows how _loihj Grosswaradein may be ours ? I beg you not to forget to despatch immediatel y instructions to the Banat about the comwand-in . _chiff of Lieut .-General Vetter over the trcops there—it 13 _saost urgtn ' : else all will be chaos there .

The intention of this I

      movement seems to be to occupy the countrv between Debreezin and Grosswardcin in yonr rear , and cut you eff from the upper army . To hinder this must be at present our main task , and for this purpose the above-mentioned concentration has b _** en resolved by the government . It is midni ght .

So much the more urgent is the necessity for you , L . F . M ., and your brave troops , to unite with " us ; if this junction can be speedil y effected , the country is saved . ' Buda Pesth . The Governor , K _.-ss-jth . ' The _G-jven-yoit op the land to LF . Bem . 'Pesth , July 4 , 1849 . —The course of action adopted by Georgey during the last days _bespeaks the intention of operating with the corps « " armee under his command upon his own houoni , aud independently of the government . After the battle loit at Raab it was his opinion ihat ihe government should transfer its seat , without loss of time , once more to the ether side cf the Theiss , as he could not

      answer for their security in _P-stb for twenty-four hours . Uuder such circumstances , as governor of the country , I conceive it to be my imperative duty timely to transfer to a place of security the moveable property of the slate , and particularly bank , ammunition , military clothing , arms-manufactory & c . ; but to keep the seat of th <* government-, as long as possible in Buda- Pesth . The reports upon the march of the _en- _* roy to Grosswardein appear to he not quite exact . Nevertheless , Visocky has received instructions to cross the Theiss on the 7 th . _Meanwhile Perczel will pass that river , with nearly 10 , 000 men , to-morrow . There was a bloody batile before Comorn on the 2 nd . It lasted from nine in the morning till late in the evening , when the enemy , completely defeated , fled and was _pursued by our troops .

From 20 , 000 to 24 , 000 men are on the march from Waitzen towards Hatvan . General Perczel has the chief command here over two army-corps , his own , which we have newly formed of 10 , 000 men , ' and ihe corps of Visocky and Desewffy , 12 , 000 men .

The Russians , who crossed the Theiss and matched on Dehretzin , were 15 , 000 strong ; but they have withdi \ twn again to join their army at Mislwlcz , which consists of 15 , 000 more .

I have set the upper corp 3 d ' armee under the command of General Perczel , and placed 12 , 000 new troops at his disposal .

      with Szegeden , as well as , according fo circumstances , to operate on the flank and rear of the Russians , who sweep with tlieir main force towards Hatvan , and from tbtnee to Pesth and _Wniiz-m . The Austrian general , Ramherg , entered Buda on the 11 th , with 6 , 000 men , but seems to have retired again . Alter we have destroyed the fortifications of Buda , no regard will be paid to the occupation of either of these completely untenable places . Nevertheless we would have fain _remabed in Pe .-th ; but , in order to do this , I should liave had to bring up and concentrate the Theiss and Danube army , and thereby to evacuate regions out of which I could stamp armies with my foot after lost _batiles , while Pesth offered me no

      resources whatever . Therefore I have estahlishe it as a _princip ' e not to make the _operations of the war subservient fo the security of the _srat of government , hut to suit the sr _* at of the government to the requisitions of the war . I know that it is better so . Today we are at Szegeden , next week perhaps we shall he at Arad or Grosswardein _, which f should prefer to any o ther . locahty . As lor myself I _aai on ihe pGint of going from village to village to pick up volunteers , for I wish to form a new reserve of 30 , 000 men , and to command this _reserve army iu-person . In a month I believe that I shall have the 30 , 000

      sores , , Accordingto 'Lloyd , ' tbe surrender of Georgey was so utterly unexpected that at first it . was 1 looked on as a snare j and Rudiger demanded that the Hun _garians should destroy tbwr ammunition , which , upon Georgev ' _s command , was immediately done . N ot until then did the _delivery-up of arms take place . Georgey is reported to have set out , accompanied by General Schlick , for Comorn , where he was to have a personal interview with Kiapka concerning the surrender of the fortress . It is even rumoured that the Hungarian general is already at Presburg , and that he will make his appearance at Vienna to-morrow . It is asserted that Kiapka has declared himself resolved to hold out Comorn . Meanwhile Guiloy , the Minister of War , has appainted a term for the surrender ofthe garrison , hevond whicli they will no longer obtain the same " favourable conditions .

      The Constitutionelles Blatt ans Bohmen' offers some remarks upon Georgey ' s submission which are _trortb quoting :- — ' Georgey already some weeks ago gave up the cause of the insurrection for lost . _^ This explains the frequent dissensions between himself and tbe Hungarian governmen t . He was chosen in spite of these views dictator . As such he declared that the only way to save Hungary from further devastation was to make immediate submission to Austria , and /• ntered forthwith into negotiations with Paskiewitch . lie required an amnesty embracing .- all the officers , for himself he made iio conditions : Paskiewitch rejected all conditions . Georgey at last agreed to send a courier to the Czar , who should bespeak an amnesty for the officers , in return for which he promised as dictator to procure the surrender of Arad , Peterwardein , and Comoro . '

      According to _private intelligence of the 16 th from Temesvar , the Ban had re-iched that fortress without firing a shot . The Magyars had everywhere thrown away their arms . On ( he roads and in ( he villages ; arms , and all sorts of soldiers' gear , are found . From the Agram papers we learn that after the Magyars had left Pancsova and its environs they conceti ' . nitedat Orsova , not to offer battle , but with a view of collecting at Adakale , and retreating to Turkey . A Magyar emissary had heen seized in _Scivia . Letters to the Sultan were ( ound upon him , the purport of which was to _reqwst' an asylum for Kossuth and his adherents inthe Turkish dominions . The individual was conveyed to Belgrade to be examined . ¦ «

      ItENEWAI , OF THE WAR—HUNGA 11 Y NOT YET ONO . UBRED 1 Accounts from "Vienna , dated August 22 nd , state that the feeling of joy which the news of Georgey ' s submission , and the prospect of the immediate termination of the Hungarian war spread in the capital , were beginning to be succeeded by misgivings , which are not lessened by the protracted silence of the government concerning tbis mysterious event . Up to the above date nothing official had been uttered on the . subject beyond Haynau ' s telegraphic despatch . All the rest was gleaned from bulletins out of Warsaw . On the 22 nd , the reports from Hungary took a fresh turn . The party which propose to carry out ihfi war are said to he in bv no means so weak and

      subdued a state as was at first imagined . Dembinski has taken the chief command , and a considerable part of Georgey ' s force , that refused to lay down arms , is united with the corps that retreated before Haynau . With tliese forces Dembinski is concentrating his position towards Transylvania , and is resolved not to give up the war without risking a decisive battle . "None of the other _lc-adars had followed Georgey ' s example . Neither the Comorn nor _P- 'tcrwardeiu garrison thought of surrendering and Kiapka , Vetter , Guyon , Perczel , and others of equally heroic temper , were resolved to die sword in hand rather than surrender unconditionally .

      A _leiter irom Presburg , at the 2 lst ult . , alludes to an engagement that had taken place on the-18 th between Raab and Comorn , which lasted two hours . Since then , a violent * cannonading had heen heard in that direction , so that Kiapka cannot make up his mind , it appears , to give in . ( From the _« Times . ' ) Our Vienna papers and letters are of tbe 23 d Au ; -. They inform us ofthe capture at Avad of M . Kossuth ' s bank-note press and the staff of his Ministry of Financ * . It is also officiall y asserted that Prince Paskiewitch was preparing to transfer Georgey and his disarmed troops to the custody of the Austrian Commander-in-Chief . The exact number of the cannon which Georcev surrendered was 138 .

      To prevent a famine in Transylvania , a decree _1-as heen published which orders a temporary suspension of the duties on corn and provisions , when imported from the Danubian _principa'ities , and tbe Turkish Commissioner in the Principalities hns been _svliciUd tolivcnsevhe exportation of provisions from the _provinces under his care . Vienna , August 23 . — The following official account appears in the ' Wiener Zeitung' respecting the new position of _thjiiarmies : The head-quarters of General Haynau _wfl _^ ii the 18 th s till at Temesvar , those of Jellaclii _jjp-amjj-pecs . Arad was occu-\ , icd by the first _cor-jjfcpf . _Sa _& _lir . k _, which had thrown out a strong _advaiicp- _" pfts _*^« ffl ar . d , s Lippa , and was in communication _wl'f- ' _^ ijaJ _^ _Jwh ' _efe _* :. the llussian

      army corps , comraannea D . _wpBiKKudiger , ' was encamped , having been joined ' again by the division of Gen Piiniutiu . The reserve corps , the Walmoden cavalry , and the third corps , all under Prince Franz Lichtenstein , had advanced to Logos , on the way to Transylvania , and there split into two columns one nf which marched to Facsit , while the other , much stronger , took the road to Cavansebes , whither the Hungarian forces , under Vecsey and Guyon , had retreated on their way toOrsoiva . The second corps , before Comorn , had , on . the 20 ( h , reached the heights above Acs , and _re-establishgd

      communication with Stuhlwcissenburg , which was entered on the 18 v . ii without resistance , by the brigade of Jahlonowski . Couriers from _Temcsvsr have already reached Vienna by this load . Raab is occupied by the brigade of _Tcuchcst , while the brigade of Melzor is advancing from Jauoshaza , towards _Samsg _, _disp'Tsing the single bands of insirgenfs which yet show _ihcmselves he ;** and there , and take refuge in the Bakony wood . The troops of Kiapka have retired to Comorn . Their commander proposed an armistice till he should receive confirmation of the surrender of Georgey . The Russian colonel , Issokow , had been at Comorn .

      GERMANY . ¦ BAD 15 N . —Mannheim , August 22 . —Andreas Schmidt , of _Blumbarg , formerly a lieutenant in lhe Baden service , was placed to-day before the courtmartial , charged with having been concerned iu the late treasonable insurrection .

Rastadt , August 21 . — Backof , aa artillery quarter-master , has been sentenced , not to death , but to ten vears' hard labour at Bruchsal .

      Baden . —The ' Cologne _Gozctte' of Aug . 26 informs us that an amnesty would be proclaimed on the 20 .-li inst ., the birth festival of the grand duke for a great part of the insurgents not seriously compromised ; and , further , that from this day no more summary executions would take place , as the drumhead , court-martial would then suspend their labours . Kinkel , as was rumoured , would be spared . More Murders . —The « Deutsche Zeitung' has letters from Rastadt of the 25 th ult ., stating that

      four persons , who were guilty of taking an active part in the Baden insurrection , were tried , condemned , and shot nt Rastadt on the 28 th ult ., viz ., Zenthofer , gunner , and Let ; z ' mger sergeant , natives of Baden ; aud .

      FRANCE . Saturday , Aug . 25 . —The ' Republique' publishes the following letter , dated London , August 21 , addressed by M . Ledru-Rollin tothe ' Journal des Debats' : — ' Monsieur le Redacteur _,-I call upon you to contradict the infamous calumny which you have extracted from a departmental journal , the ' Charente Inferieure . ' You say that I was ia intimate relation with a liberated convict at Saintes , who poin ted out to me such citizens as bad amassed a certain fortune by their labour , in order that they mig ht be despoiled of it . 1 really cannot conceive that political hatred aad baseness can go beyond this .

      Paris , Monday . —The National' announces this morning that the president of the republic has asked and obtained the hand of his cousin , the daughter of the Queen of Sweden . Matters are not , however , go far advanced as the French journal would lead people to believe . There is no doubt that Louis Napoleon has asked , and ( hat negotiations are going on to ob tain , the hand of a lady who would bring a dowry of four millions of francs , but nothing has heen concluded as yet . The attempt lo obtain a Wurteraburg princess failed , and this second attempt may fail also , and visions of connubial happiness _if tnish further in the perspective . In either of these channels , whether through Wurtemlmrg or

      throug h Sweden , the Kussian sword wei ghs down the balance , and it becomes daily more evident how devoted to Russia the president and his immediate entourage have become . It is well kno * n , and has been said in this correspondence , that General Lamoriciere assisted , in his official capacity , at a grand review and ceremonial in commemoration of the surrender of Georgey . This mark of sympathy has not been held sufficient , and an autograph letter of the president ' s , congratulating the Emperor of Russia on his success , was sent off yesterday from the

      Elysee , the bearer being M . Fialin de _Persigny—one of tbe most reactionary councillors of Louis Napoleon , whom he unceasingly pushes on to the empire . That France should have refused her support to Hungary h easily explained when we see the eagerness with which every occasion is taken to flatter the Emperor Nicholas . The ' Opinione _PubUque ' quotes a mot , whieh characterises curtly , but well , the conduct of lhe government , which has last issued from the revolution of February , ' Louis the XV . is absolved . ' As it was with Poland so it is now with

      Hungary , and already one can see that the Hungarian struggle will again be characterised as a _Polish one by the friends of Austria , who pretend to see the result in the surrender of Georgey , the pure Hungarian , whilst Dembinski and Bem , both Poles , still hold out . Until the motives of Georgey ' s surrender are more clearly defined , it is u * eless to make deductions which would probably he ill-founded . Meanwhile the position of Count Teleki , who is now in Paris , is most awkward , for he is the accredited agent ofa power which , it is feared , no longer exists , and it is impossible to say at this moment whether he is a plenipotentiary or an exile .

      The 'AsserahleeNationale ' and' _CourrierFranqais _, both the determined opponents of M . Du ' aure , have been the journals that daily threatened a ministerial change . Two days ago the former announced a Mole ministry , of which it gave the names . Yesterday the latter said that the Mole ministry would be inaugurated at the meeting of the Assembly in October . Thc ' Constittitionner yesterday denied any change in thc cabinet .

      Paris , Tuesday . —M . Victor Grandin , a wellknown member of the Legislative Assembly , and formerly a member of the Chamber of Deputies , aud who , besides , is one of the most extensive manufacturers of France , died in Paris , yesterday , of cholera . M . Cerclet , one of the former secretaries of the Chamber of Deputies , and General de Giicheneuc _, brother-in-law of Marshal Lannes , the Duke of Montebello _, died on the previous day of the same complaint .

      Paris , Wednesday . —More Tyranny . —The Abbe Chatel , a socialist , was tried yesterday before tbe Court of Assize of the Seine , and acquitted , on a charge of exciting tbe military lo insubordination . A National Guard named Philippe , who was chief of Battalion of the 8 th Legion , dissolved after the insurrection of June , 1848 , was sentenced , onTuesday , to one month's imprisonment , for having illegally worn the uniform of his corps at the manifestation of the 13 th of June . Another , a sapper of the 5 th Legion , was condemned to eight months' imprisonment for having carried a carbine on the same occasion . A brigadier of the Artillery of the National Guard , arrested on the 13 th of June in tbe

      Conser _vatoire des Arts with two packages of ballcartridge in his pockets , was sentenced to two months' imprisonment . M . Robilliard , editor of the - Revolution Democratique et Sociale , ' was sentenced on Tuesday to three years' imprisonment and 4 , 000 francs fine , for a seditious article , entitled 4 Messieurs les _Royalistes , Fire First . ' M . _Bareste , editor of the Republique , ' was sentenced on the same day by default to 500 francs line for neglecting to deposit in the office of the _Attorncy-General the number of that journal of the 16 th inst . —M . Marc Dufraisse _, a representative of the people and _editor of a paper has been sentenced , by default , by the Court of Assize of the Dordogne , toa year ' s imprisonment and 2 . 000 f . fine .

      Letters from Rome ofthe 21 st ult state that a note was presented on the 19 th by the French Minister to Cardinal Antonelli , containing a solemn and pressing admonition to the Pontifical Government againstthe course that has been adopted hitherto _. We read in the _-Asscmblee Nationale : '— ' Meetings of Montagnards aro held every ni ght in the populous quarters of Paris . On Saturday ni ght move than 800 agents wore on foot , and at three o ' clock in the morning the police had received the accounts ofall these nocturnal sittings . ' A pamphlet , entitled Petition demandant I'Appcl au Peuple , ' has just been seized , by order ofthe President oftho Republic , and a prosecution bas been commenced against the author and printer .

      ITALY . ROME . —A letter from Ferrara of the 14 th states that the corpse of the female , which was said to he that of Madame Garibaldi , who had perished from fatigue and privations during her flight , hss been examined , End recognised to be really that of the _fus-atire chief ' s wife .

      ( From the Daily News . ' ) August 19 . —Two edicts of great importance are expected to make thuir appearance to-morrow , and are indeed , stated to he already printed , but the strictest secrecy is enjoined upon the subject , and the printers themselves are threatened with imprisonment if they make any revelations . Oudinot is said to have made the strongest opposition to the measures in question , although uselessl y , but as exactly the same thing was said when the value of thc banknotes was diminished ,. one can hardly suppose that the opposition is sincere ; for how , otheiwise _, could the cardinals carry any point actually dis . agreeable to ihe commander of 30 , 000 or 40 , 000

      men in possession of the capital and a great part of the . state 1 The first of these edicts orders the disbaiidmentof the Roman army , the Pope considering that it was eternally disgraced hy siding with the people when the Swiss fired from the Qnirinal , last November , and declaring that his faithful Spaniards will supply the few troops necessary for his service ; _the __ second is a sentence of exile and perpetual banishment against the triumviri , the deputies , the provincial prefects , and , in fact , all the agents of the late Republican government , besides the immediate

      dismissal from Rome of all foreigners who have not been domiciled there for more than five years . With respect to foreigners , I may mention that sevent y or eighty Lombards , who had enlisted amongst the carbineers , on the entry of the French , after having been kept 111 uncertainty for moretban a month , were dismissed and sent down to Civita Vecchia two days ago , in order to be embarked for Genoa . The Sardinian consul , however , refused to vise their passports , so that they remained in the predicament , and will probably be packed oft' to Corsica or Algiers .

      Garibaldi ' s arrival at Venice appears to be fully confirmed , and it is reported that he will be made admiral of the Venetian fleet , a position for which his consummate knowled ge of seafaring matters renders hira well adapted . Garibaldi has been blamed by some for not rather choosing the kingdom of Naples as his centre of action , where he had but little to fear from the royal army , and nii ght have aroused the sympathy of the liberal part of the population , but he doubtless considered that there was no hope for the south ot Italy whilst the centre and the north were in the hands of hostile and powerful foreign armies .

      A reli gious as well as political , revolution appears to be unavoidable . The celebrated Vadre _Gavazzi is reported to have turned Pntestant _^ _and Padre Ventura , a man whose reputation as a theologian and a philosopher gives bins great influence in this coun try , is said to be i * a a fair way of following the ex . ample .

The three Cardinals at the head of the government have declined to receive the Roman officers ; so what is to become of the 3 , 000 Roman troops here , eventually , it is hard to say . Many think that they will he sent to Algeria or Corsica , and there be subjected to a thorough military training . — Times .

      SARDINIA .-The treaty of peace was communr _* . catcd to the Chamber on the 19 th ult . Accounts from Turin , of tbe 22 d , state that the grand funeral service , which was ordered in honour of Charles Albert , has been suspended , as it waa feared that it would be made the occasion on the part of the ultra-republican and war party to create a disturbance . VENICE . —Thc Soldaten Freund ' publishes a letter from the artillery officer Uchat'ius , who first proposed to subdue Venice by ballooning . From tbis it appears that the operations were suspended for want of a proper vessel exclusively adapted to this mode of warfare , as it _became evident , after it

      few experiments bad been mm ]? , that , as the wind blows nine times out of ten from the sea , the balloon inflation must be conducted on board ship ; and this was the case 011 July the 15 th , the occasion alluded to in a former Utter , when two balloons armed with shrapnels _aicniidcd from the deck of the Volcano war steamer , and attained a distance of 3 500 fathoms , in the direction ef Venice ; and exactly at tbe moment calculated upon , i . e ., at the expiration of _twenty-three minutes , the explosion took place . The captain of the English bri g Frolic , and other persons then at Venice , testify to the extreme terror and the moral effect produced on the inhabitants .

      More Atrocious _Murdeus . —A letter from Vienna , dated _Atigust 21 st , says : — 'A detestable act of butchery has been committed by the cowardly savage who commands tlie Austrians before Venice . On the 15 tb , _fifieeii Italians , habited as priests , were taken by an Austrian picket as they were crossing the frontier , near the Panta Maestra _, from the Soman into the Vem tian territory . They were draeged before a court-martial and then all shot . There is no proof given that these Italians were not really what they affected to he . They -rere said to have been _Ausni-in subjects . But * they were suspected of beina ; some of Garibaldi's followers , who attempted to escape from the Roman States in his disguise .

      • Tbe general of cavalry , Gcrgowsky , who bas been entrusted with the chief command of the Ausirian troops before Venice , has established a fresh battery at Campaldone , from which he is hombarding Marano , where many houses have been burned in consequence . ' The ' Concordia' of Turin , of thc 23 d , stales that Garibaldi has { written from Venice to _hitj mother , in order to tranquillise her fears .

      TUMULT AT _MILAN .-August 19 . —A disturbance which , though of no great moment ia itself , was particularly deplorable under the cir _* cumstances , occurred here last night , after the conclusion of the ceremonies in celubration of the _Empnror's birth-day . I think it . proper to place the facts before you , in case they should be misrepre _sented or exaggerated b y the French or other paper ** . It appears that a milliner , w ! . os 3 shop 13 at the north-west angle of the Piazza del Duomo , ot Cathedral-place , chose to _nir-k- * her loyalty more conspicuous during the day by the exhibition of a large flag in black and yellow ( the Austrian colours ) ,

      • uih the inscription , ' Viva rrancesco Josefo . This had the effect of drawing a _aiicd number of the rabble about the spot , many of whom testified their displeasure hy groaning and hooting ; and towards evening thc demonstration of a row became so menacing that a party of soldi---s was sent to the place , to keep order nnd disperse the crowd . Ia doing so they were , or thought themselves , obliged to make use of fore , and 1 regret to say that several persons were wounded , and it is even said one killed . This _unfortunatfieventhasexciii-duo small sensation in Milan , and lhe more from the irritable state ia whicli the public aiind _remains after the occurrences of thc last two vears .

      It is impossible to go further in retrograde paths than the Austrian government is doing at Milan . The Mamelukes whom Mehemefc All destroveel would have acted otherwise than wo find thc sbirri of Radetski acting at Milan on the 22 nd nit . AVe havo recounted the riot which took -dace consequent on the exposition in thc windows of a house of ill-famo of an Austrian flag . Thc unfortunates who showed their detestation of the symbol of their tvranny were taken up and bastinadoed . The mei _/ in tho public squares of Milan , and tho women in a retired ¦ p lace . This fact is not apocryphal—it is on this Uithof the official gazette of Milan . "When such is the conduct of Austria with regard to Italians , can it bo hoped that less barbarism will be shown with regard to the Hungarians .
