      TIIE WAR IN HUNGARY . MOKE GLORIOUS VICTORIES OF THE

      HUNGARIANS . On the 3 rd of _Au-zust tha Hungarians achieved one oi th & greatest sad mast decisive _vkiories which has * _nar !; ed the progress of the war of independence . Tbe result has been the entire rout and defeat of that carps , which has lost its position , guns , and store-, with the bridge over the Danube , which cannected thera with the Schutt Their outposts have been . _l-ivt-n up to "Wieselburg , _twenty-five miles near- * _Vi-una than Raab . Raab , Gorgo , Acs , and oihf r pl .-e . -8 , have been taken . Tbe _commumcaiion frith i- _- * - _-ih has beea comp letely cut off . Finally , the « : - . D _' _----ira 5 sment that has resulted from this blow to th- _-.-ar-ison of Pesth , the corps of Schlick , the arm- * ii Haynau , and the Russian corps of Paniutiii , not Vo sr . eafc of the forces under Paskiewitch , all of frhit-i ari thereby cat off from Vienna , is so great as u . make the victory of ten-fold more importance .

      From -another quarter we have received tbe _followisg communication , which tirows important li g ht on ths general affairs of Hungary , and the posr . iua and prospects of the Russian and Austrian alli e s . Sch * sarzenburg is gone to Warsaw . He left _Vkiiaa _jsirt in time to miss Lamoriciere at Cosel , where ihe Austrian and Prussian railways mee t There t _!»* y told tbe Austrian Premier that tbe Frenchman bad gone to Cracow , whereat he was

      gre & ily incensed , and said , *• What the devil does he svant « _Cracow P It is thought the Czar will not be _plfas' -d either at this little detour , wbich looss like a lickerish curiosity to know how things were goii ' g ou further down , and was exactly "what a diplomanst with any tact sould have avoided . Owing to this _H-fl-s his whole mission may prove a failure , ¦ whic _5 . * _noliberalmortal need , perhaps deplore , w hile the _pb-icy of the Czh ' s dear brother at Paris ia setting nith such a strong current towards absolutism .

      The Russian official Teport estimates the force left by _Gt-orgey at _Waltz-m , which carried the baggage of his - ** -mj * back to Comoro , at 12 , 200 m e n TH- * - * cups left at Comoro under Kiapka were 10 . 000 _n-.--a . Therefore the whole force , which _astounded Czorich by its _nnf-xpected bulk on the 3 rd . _raa not far short of 23 , 000 men . Latte-ly tbe fores 3 i . Comoro was g iven out at seven or eight _tho-io -i-.- < I men , and certainly Haynan did not calculate ii Hi more than ten . Some little li _^ h t was t hro w n on ibis miscalculation by the report of Major Bel . k- -- .-s . t be officer w ho was taken in the Pesth < _* tilH . . _**** s _** , broug ht to Cnmnrn on thc night of the 29 ih , and sent back next day to the Austrian outposu . _Be-hkers immediatel y wa r ned G e ner a l _Czt-::- ;'* of tbe fatal mistake which existed as to bis

      _nunu-er of ihe garrison , -which he sain could net be _nniler _fifu-en or sixteen thousand . _Piohahlythe _estiniste _* ks higher , but the Vienna papers did not _dait ii » _i-i-Mi-m it for fear of alarming the capital . Czori- h had scarcely time to call in the nei ghbouring * _k-ach-nents . and concentrate his scattered cor ; : s . before Kiapka was down upon him like an ava _' _a-icbc , and drove the Austrians back to _Weiselbun-jS-vanty miles on the Vienna side of Raab No ' _. v , if there is really such a corps as that of General Aulich in existeace , I m e an some t hing _« tr . ; _a- _*< ir and more effective than would te barely _suffidtnt to check tbe weak division of Nugent , tlie j _:-iom--nt is _evidenflv come for a strong

      _detacbiscut of this corps , united with a similar force fro :-- ! Comoro , to fall upon the Austrian columns in _Wea-- > rhn and Stablweissenbi _* r _|* , and either crush or drive ihcm into Buda . Probably the next oew- * v . eshall hear will be the destruction of those garrisons . Georgey _' s force , which passed the Theiss at Tokay , was not more than 35 , 000 men . Of _-sll his artillery , 120 guns , Georgey hud only lost two . It is a mistake to suppose there was a severe battle at _Miscclcz anymore than at Waitzen . It was * a « _e ! y a repetition of the same artificea «? ecT _:--as-. * a _-ton ol his rear guard while he was _g-sn-i--- _* : ihe Theiss . Paskiewitch ' s last despatch wis _ilit-zd from _Bossonneny , ten or fifteen miles to ihe _eortb-west of _Debreeziu . Of the dav I am

      not _svre , but it was one of the last two days or July . His iren were dying off like flies ; and it is certain tha : if be cannot manage to crash the _Hungs-ia _"*! array before the end of August , his army will be so reduced by mortality and Eickness as to be ibmc up tor this campaign . Tbe Russians and _Aus'riar-s were quarrelling like cat and dog ; aad the _generals grumbled on either side at nnt being _proin-ii ? su _*" . pGr _* edt Tbe Russian officers _hate-t

Though the Austrians have _greatly benefitted tie place by spending a deal of money h e re , vet the _seotim -Dis of the Hungarian and German part of the po- - _-u ' a . tuHi have been with difficulty repressedinderd ihere were some marifestations of public feeling . Ft soon it became known , beyond the posabiiity-af a dauht _, that a parl y of from 5 . 000 l o 10 , _1-OG Hungarians bad surprised the garrison of _Baa' »; that they had pushed their advanced guard toWi _s-lhurg , and that they were within sig ht of Altrnb-jr j , twelve English miles from _Pressliurg . So _sud-iei- was tbe approach of the Hungarians upon Bas ! * tliat the Imperialist garrison of that place was _selz- _^ l « 'lb a panic . Thtir flight was general and dist-r .-3 . -riv in the extreme . The fugitive officers

      _presumed - _'** at the cities of Raab and Gorgo were taken _—innV-d , there was nothing to prevent the _Himgariss *" : " r « m _lakvn- _** them , and with them an enor-* moi * i _fj-iEMity of stores , the whole commissariat of the 3-a-ierialfst army , whicKhad been concentrated in tbe t- _^ o _places previous to being sent into tbe interior ii the aimy of General Haynau . At Gorg - the H-- ** _-.-arians mast have fonnd two steamers with a qua-nily of boats which they were intended to _3 ra-j f . i _\ the Quays _¦* ere above 80 , 000 bushels of oats _h-i-t _enonrs' _-us _quantities of flour , rice , and vines ?* -. * , and 2 , 400 head of cattle—all of which fell

      inlii ; i _.- - hands of thc Hsngarians . The loss of the _ImneihlHits is estimated a ; 1 . 000 000 of florins , bnt in _leali-y the loss is much greater , for the lives of the iii-p-tialist armies in Hungary _depended on tin * safety 'jf th » _-ir store- * , which cannot now be rep laced tu _iVx _* , - * to b _< J Ot any use to them .

Thus , vritnin a few days is revenged , as if by Us-. _* _-en _itf-elf , the atrocious spoliation of the _^ Jews ofBa _^ -P _^ th . _' _Gf the impression which the news of this disaster ma-is at Vienna we have the following account : —

      • This morning Vienna presented an unusually excited and flurried appearance . Four battalions were despi *« _V _; - ed by railway to Pressbur-r . Among them was a battalion of _R-fl _^ s . They were mere lads . There had been some miiiiny among thera . I _underei _eiyj they had refused to march until tbe Emperor sent to say tbat ihey shou d not be used * g a : n = i > hc enemy . At length they consented to do so , but even tben the scene was heartrending . The

      poor young fellows moaned and wept aloud . They cried that to march against the Hungarians was to go to -ki ' -h . The officers yielded less to their feelings _, hat ihey tco parted from their friends and relatioiis . vith very evident signs of emotion , and then harried the men off . Near the railroad there was a dens * : cro-vd of curiou 3 _spectators . Here again the youi" 5 riflemen tarried and bemoaned their fate . They i . _** i < l , ' We are _j-oing to be shot ! " and , addr e _* _*> : ** g tlie crowd ,. they cried— 'Farewell for ever . * We -sha _' . l never return ! ' The _efficers intreated

      them ia he quiet and resigned to iheir fate . They _aabmiiie-1 at length . It is _stased here that * _fiavmu fi-ids the difficulties of his march almost insuiicraale . There are tumours of his having been forced Jo fall back upon Ketsbkeraet . His soldiers are _staird to have suffered more than auy army ever ffin . _Th-jir march from Pesth was a weary ploddin ? -: ' r _* i _* ougb the deep burning sand , The horses ami ihe artillery conW scarcely . move alon _*** . With the exception of Ketsbkeraet they did not find a sinfie village . There were neither human creatures £ or animals . The inhabitants of those places had

      _Bandere-i a * .. y ; ihey had burnt their _villag es and filled the _welis with putrid carcases bf men and animals . No water is to be had , and the soldiers must drink the hot and corrupted water which General Haynau carries along wilh his army . They mix it with vinegar to make it drinkable . On their weary m arch t hey f o und , as yet , not a trace of the Hungarian army , and it is very doubiful whether that army will oppose tbem at _Sz' _-geriin . But if the Hungarians wpre to attack and defeat General Haynau at _Sz-r-gedin _, the probability is tbat but few of the Imp erialists would live to tell the fate of the battle , for the Landsturm would rise up in their rear and prevent their escape . "

      The' Kolner _Z- _* Uung' states , that so great was th _« terror of the garrison at Pressburg , that barricades were thrown up to meet the first attack of the Hungarians , who it was thought would come to Pressburg next . The general consternation was increased hy the news of the occupation of Altenburg by the Hungarians , and of the defeat ol General Pott ' s brigade , the remainder of which had been driven back to Neutra . Whether the Hungarians who

      occupied Raab were , indeed , part of the garrison m Comorn , is still a matter of doubt . The Vienna correspondent of the ? Kolner Zeitung * sta t es , that the Hungarian General , Aulich , has left his position on the Platten-lake , and that he has marched t hroug h the forest of Bakong and appeared at Raab . Iu other papers it is stated that it is Kiapka _vho thus scours the country ; but t' > a » General Aulich is marching up from the platten-lake to join his troops wish those of Kiapka .

      Vienna papers and letters inform us of the continued and painful interest felt at Vienna on the subject of the late successes of the Hungarians . The occupation of Raab is considered a terrible blow lor the Austrians ; indeed , as the lime wears on » tb _* - _dpiails of the loss which they suffered in that affair come to light . All the artillery at Aatsh and _M-jtsha was taken by the Hungarians , who tor-k four batteries to Comorn , and sp-krd the rest , On < - haUaliin of the Regiment Mazucchelli was cap _mre-i , 40 . 000 < wt . of copper mon ?} ' , 50 000 _u--iforms , and 100 , 000 cwt . of flour were taken at Raab , and at Gyono the Hunaarians took five vessels loaded with corn and with seventeen cw . of _j-unpuwder . Near the ciiy of _Galanihse the Hungarians intercepted a Russian transport with 30 , 000 regimentals .

      The great losses which the Russian army has sust ained in Hungary are s t riking ly attested by ire great quantities of military clothing , arms , and knapsacks , which are brought back to Cracow from the scene of action . On the 25 th ult ., accordinitoa letter from Cracow in the * Constitutionelles Blat ans _Beohtaen , ' twenty waggons full of the effects of dead soldiers were brought up from Hungary into that city . MOST IMPORTANT !—REPORTED GREAT

      VICTORY OF THE _HUNGARIANS . Paris , Tuesdat . — ' La Presse ' states that a letfer was received yesterday , by a memher of the Commission ofthe Legislative Assembly , announcing that the great Russian army had been complete ly defeated by the Magyars . It was added that the Russian army of reserve was marching night and da > towards Podolia and Vclbynia , which were uncovered by the defeat , and which provinces the Emperor Nicholas feared would be iuvaded by the victorious Hungarians !

      Li * -iters _frsm Vienna of the 10 th would seem to confirm the above report _; tbey state that in the course of tbe day Prince Orloff arrived here from tbe head-quarters of Paskiewitc _!* . Rumours be . came prevalent as soon as tbe Prince's arrival was known tbat Georgey bad been _defeated by the Russians , and a bulletin announefng th *** _definitive t riumph was momentaril y expected . In a short time , however , it was ascertained that Orloff wa * the me-senger , not of victory , but of _defeat . _Paskie-» ileh , it is c nfidcn t l y _stut-d , haa been oi ' itirel ' . _- routed . No bulletin was pub _i'hed . and at the time onr despatches were sent off the details weie still unknown .

      _Etura the western theatre of war we learn tliat the defeat of the Austrians before Comorn was mo e nd more serious than was at first _supposed The Ma < -yars are swarming th ough the whole country , far and wide . They already stand _between Wieselburg and Hocbtr-ss _, have occupied . Sz' -rdahel y _, iii the Schutt , and northwards by _JSTe-ibausel , have thrown a bridge over tbe Neutra .

      ITALY . PRIESTir TTRANNV . —EXCITED STATE OF HOME . The ' . Ginrnale di Roma' of the 1 st . announces the arrival t !* ere of Cardinals Delia Genga _Sermattt-l . Vaunicelli-Casoni , and Altieri . w bom * his Holiness tbe Pope has named members of the Commission ot Government . ROME , August 2 . —Rome has now de facto re . turned under the temporal dominion of the church , General Oudinot having formall y resi gned the

      provisional authority with whicb he was invested , am ! Cardinals Delia Genga Altieri , and Vanmclli , _havini established themselves in the Palazzo della Consul's on the Qnirinal . These most eminent , commfcsioners entered Rome on the night of the 31 st o ' July , in ord-r not to risk an unfavourable reception from the populace by dav . having heard no doubt , that the Vicar-General . Cardinal Patrizz . had been tremendously hissed on his first appearance in pnblic .

      A proclamation was published yesterday , announcing the triump h of reli gion by means of the devotion of the _G-itholic powers , and abusing in the severest terms tbe _« wretch e s ' who had darf d to set up a republican form of government . but mentioning neither constitution , concessions , amnesty , nor , in fac t , any of the points which chiefly interest tbe _public . Ministers ( 'he proclamation does nnt say _-ahetber secular or ecclesiastical ) will be named _i-y _fte commissioners for tl » A direction of the _various bra- ches of internal a _^ ministrati-m , whilst the management of foreign affairs is exclusively reserved to the most eminent _pro-secretary of state , Cardinal Antonelli , who , until be arrives in Rome , will _perform tbe duties of bis office by means of a substitute .

      August 3 . —Rome is this morning in . a state of the greatest excitement and discontent on account of the arbitrary edicts issued by tbe triumvirate of mist eminent cardinals . That wbich is producive of the most immediate effect un all classes of individuals is , the reduction of tbe value of republican bank notes , which are henceforth to bec nsidend as bearing only sixty . five per cent of their nominal value . " _Tbia measure bas been combated as much as possible , not only by the Romans themselves , of whom a most respectable deputation waited on Gen .

      Oudinot . and by tbe English , French , and o _* ber _fnreian hankers and meichants _, who drew up . and srgnpd a remonstrance on the subject _. but also by tbe French commander-in-chief himself , who , lam assured , strongly urged the _necessity of abandoning , at least for the present , the prosecution of such an _impoli'ic and vindictive proceeding ; thp more unjust as it was not announced immediately on the change of government , and as government employe ,- and contractors have been paid subsequently in republican pappr , even up to the moment preceding the pu _b lication of the edict .

      The decree was primed and ready for circulation yesterday , bnt Gen . Oudinot objected so forcibly to i _* s emission that it was kept back , and a courier despatched to Gaeta . This morning tbe general _bimself embarked on a river steamer at Ri pa Grand e , whence in eight hours be will arrive at Gaeta , and sneak with the Pope himself about the matter . His _absence , ' however , has been the signal for tbe appearance of the disputed edict , and cro ds of people are reading it and calculating their lossess _, cursinsr , meanwhile , tbe cardinal commissioners and the whole Sacred College into the bargain .

      The priests sav that it has been a merciful thing to annex any value at all to the paper of such iniqui . tons ' wretches ' as tbe republicans and t ha t i t is infinitely more than they deserve ;; hut whilst this diminution is made it must be observed that no means are taken fcr abolishing the paper circulation and supplying it with coin ; on the contrary , a new emission of papal notes is promised io replace . the republican notes . It was hoped that notes under a certain valuF would not ba diminished on account of the distress it would produce amongst the poorer classes , but the unsparing hand of power has chastised all alike . Ano t her edict , also published this morning ,

      suspends from their offices all employes who have been appointed since the Pope ' s departure , cancels all promotion--, and degrades all those who took an oath of _Oddity to the republic ; reserving meanwhile a strict examination into the conduct of all government employes still remaining , in order to decide whether they are worthy of being kept in their _respoctive offices . The edict also formally re-establishes the judicial tribunals in vignur during papal juris _, diction . Imagine what a chaos ! Besides the ordinary courts of law and appeal , Rome boasts of no fewer than fourteen -exceptional tribnnal ? ,, chiefly ecclesiastical I _Avgust 4 . —Thii morning public _diiconteut las

      be- n not a tittle aggravated by the price of salt being augmented from one _bajucco a pound to three _bajo- * chi and four bajocchi a pound for the finer sort , _hcsitles a report that the base money now in general circulation will be immediately reduced to bait ; its nominal value . These measure *? , which were not at a l l neces s ary , have excited the greatest detestation towards the new rulers , and are considered by the ecclesiastical party itself to have been a great error . Cardinal Bemetti , who is one of the cleverest men inthe caered college , and who was certainly sufficiently despotic when in power as Secretary of S rate , refused to take any part in the present proceedings , and declared bis intention not to come to Home just now , in order not to witness the blunders ut his colleagues , of which he expected that the first and the greatest , would be the annulline of the

      paper money . Cardinal Antonelli is now the allpowerful Secretary of State . The tone of this man ' s mind may be judged of from an answer he is said to have made on being informed that the prisons of Rome were so full that they could receive no more inmates-, and wbich I am assured by those who are per . sonally acquainted with the cardinal is perfectly in keeping with his character : ' If you have no more dungeons unoccupied , ' said this churchman * _'" ' you have surely plenty of graves . ' The revelation of such a spirit of course exasperates the people very much , and a priest was yesterday insulted and knocked down by some men occupied in reading the obnoxious edict , amongst whom he pushed his way to get a sight of the tariff . Some French soldiers pissing down _theCorso at the time touk no notice of the fray .

      The attitude of the city was indeed so unquiet las t ni ght that the Frenp h th o ug ht fit to fill all the piazzas with troops ; artillery , with teams _harnessfd , was placed at the Piazza del Popolo , Trinita de Monti , and Piazza di Ve . nezia , and other important points of the city , whilst very strong patrols of cavalry and infantry were sent out , an hour before dark , to perambulate the streets in every direction . These preqautions , kept up during the whole night , prevented the occurrence of any actual tumult ; but the expression of public opinion cannot of course be crushed by military compression and this was givsn way to very freely amongst the groups of discontented citizens .

      The notary Gagaiotti , who took an inventory of the _turni ure of the Pontifical Palaces at Rome for the Republican government , and M . Mazzocbi , appoin t ed h y General Galletti chaplain to the Carabinepr . * , bad been _arrested . .- ' . : Prince Gabrielli , to whom tbe Pope had offered the Ministry of War , had refused to accept that post . Two persons , charged with the murder of Count Rossi , bad been arrested at Leghorn , and given up to the Roman authorities . In the Concordia' of the 8 th there is a second proclamation of Mazzini , which , notwithstanding the strictest precautions , has been affixed to the walls of Rome . It is as follows : —

      ' Romans end fellow-citizens , —Your brethren of Lombardy—a land whose sons in 1848 gave the first signal of a victorious insurrection , by abstaining from the use of Austrian cigars , beseech you for assistance , and entreat you to reject the produce of France . May these words , Roman citizens , wh i ch have been echoed on other portions of tbe Italian soil , fall powerfully on your ears , and penetrate your souls with patriotic unanimity , that they may remain a solemn testimony tbat , among usurpers and the oppressed , _e--p ry bond , ei t her _moral material , or economical , is henceforward _destroyed , until the common liberty should attain be re-established .

      ' Refuse , t hen , in the most determined manner , the employment of the manufactured products , lie they wines or books—indeed , everything which comes from France . Let there no longer be any commercial relations with that country ; and when her sons ahull rffer to y » n the various objects of their merchandise , _poiDt them to the graves of the R ep ublican mar t yrs , and s ay to these avarici o u s men , ' Your bales are blood-stained—they , besides , come from the same land whence at the same time were brought the cannon which have killed our brothers , and which have endeavoured to destroy our

      Republic . Corrupted by egotism and love of wealth , France is no longrr of any importance . ' Yes , Romans _, when the people of Paris shall have learned that ihe French flae had , upon heaps of corpses , in she name of Papal Kina , been hoisted instead of the _fl- * g of God and the people , the security of France is ass died . Strike these avaricious _calculators in h _** ir 'iearest interests . Show them that , sooner or later crime will always cover its authors with misery and infamy . Let faith arid constancy be our motto . God will hurry on the fate of those who have tram-\\\ e & under foot the , ri ghts of humanity . For tbe Triumvirate ,

      • August , 1849 . « Mazzini . ' The'Milan Gazette .- of the 5 th , officiall y announces the defeat of Garibaldi , near San Mariuy _, bv the Austrian troops . Eight hundred of his men were made prisoners and transported to Rimini . No date is mentioned . The ' Piedmontese Gazette , ' ihe 6 th , states from Rimini that Garibaldi ' s troops have been disbanded on the banks of San Marino ; part of his m- * u having , taken refuse in the mountains , and 720 of tbem having gone to Rimini to make their submission _.

      Accounts from Rimini state that Garibaldi , after having escaped from _Cfzanatico , on board some fishing boats was attacked l > y some Austrian shi ps , and forced to take refuge at Magnavacca _, near Commachio where they escaped into the forests , with which that part of the country abounds . Several of Garibaldi ' s fishing-boats were sunk , and great numbers of his followers ppyisbed . Garibaldi himself _* as among those who escaped . Troops were immediatel y se n t fr o m Ferrara , who succeeded in taking some of Garibaldi ' s followers , and , among _otte-s , the Abhe _Hupo Bassi , and a captain of the nnme of L _* -frang hi . Garibaldi is still in flight .

      The Concordia' contains the following intellig ence from Venice : — 'On the ni g ht of the 29 th ult . the Venetians surprised a strong advanced . post of the Austrians . attacked it at the point of the bayonet , killed fifty men , disabled thirty-seven , and seized a large quantity of provisions . About the same time , a Venetian flotilla was escorting a large supply of provisions from the Ionian Islands , when it w a s attacked off the Venetian Gulf by the Imperial fleet , which , a ' teramnst obstinate conflict , was obliged to

      take refuge at Trieste . The _flatilla then triumphantly entered the lagoons , to the joy of the Venetians , w ho h a d alread y hegua to suffer from want of provisions . At present flour , corn , wine , and fresh meat are plentiful . The blockade by land is ( says the ? Concordia' ) as good as raised , the Austrians havinrr considerably extended its limits , after their fruitless _efforts of tlie 28 th , 29 t h , and 30 th ult . In their retreat they have left a large quantity of projectiles behind them . '

      Letters from Rome of the 7 th state that the agi tation produced in the city by the first acts of tlie pontifical commission was very great and was spreading to the provinces . The decree diminishing the value of the paper money was so unpopular , that it was thought that , if not recalled , it would produce disturbances . The French diplomatists have completely failed in obtaining terms from his Holiness ; and thc cardinals who surround him show a decided determination to carry their victory to its utmost limits .

      Accounts have been received from Bologns of the 8 th of- August , which state that the Austrians have snot the priest _Bassi , one of Garibaldi ' s followers , who was taken , on the previous day . They bave also shot M . Levraghi , * one of Garibaldi's "fficers . who wa 9 taken at the same time with the Abhe Bassi . The priest Bassi was a native of Bologna , and one of the most eloquent preachers of 11 aly . He was shot on the pretence that he had been taken with arms in his hands ! M . Levraghi was a native of Milan , and bad been in the Austrian army . He was therefore shot as a ; deserter . The executions took place on the morning of the 8 th inst . " •' ' _*'* . '

      Garibaldi has not yet been taken .

      withdrawn from the socialist press , oil which it has rested since Jane , the journals of tbat party will probably reappear , or at least so many of their as can afford the caution-money and the necessary calmness requisite to keep free from the nippers of the press law . M . Sauteyra was unsuccessful in an attempt to include the sixth military * division , of which Lyons is the centre , in the law raising the state of ' siege of the _firet . M . Dufaure showed that there might be danger , in such an extension , on account of the great audacity shown at Lyons in June , where certainly the ultra democrats and social _, ists acted a much more decided and serious part

      than they did in Paris . The most important part of the sitting , however , was the presentation , by M . Passy , of two projects of law by which itis intended to fill up the gap in French finance . These laws are an income tax of one per cent ., and a tax on the conveyance of property , funded or otherwise , and whether by gift or purchase .

      A SCENE IN IHE CHAMBER . The disgraceful scene that occurred in the Legislative Assembly yesterday is the topic of comment and deserved reprobation from every portion of the press this morning . * It is universally agreed that the act of M _. Pierre Buonaparte is aggravated bythe fact that M . Gastier , the memher whom he treated so shamefully , is an old man of 72 , whose grey hairs should have saved him from aggression , even though he had made use of the term ' imbecile , ' which he

      denies having applied to M . Pierre Buonaparte . Nor is the conductof M . Dupin free from blame in this matter , and free commen t s a r e made on his causing the aggrieved party , as well as the aggressor , to be placed separately in places of confinement , a measure very unlike justice in the case of M . Gastier . The prime cause that gave rise to tbe affair , was the reading by M- Dariste of the article published by M . Sommier , on which was founded the demand to prosecute . This artijle was as follows : —

      1 Restoration of the Political Scaffolo . — They have raised up the guillotine again , which bad been thrown down with royalty by the people in February—the prelude to the restoration of the throne by the restoration of the scaffold . They lean upon _each'other and walk together like twin brothers , The executioner was ever the friend of the King , his best and most useful servant . "When the red frock of the executioner was seen , people knewthat tbe King could not be far off . The people knew this when he abolished the scaffold after abolishing the throne . It knew well that it was striking the second head of the royal hydra j and that it was tearing up the foundation of royalty . They have rebuilt this foun .

      da t ion , solemnl y and public !) in the midst of twenty thousand soldiers , escortsof honour , gardes du corps of the executioner , cotivoked to protect the august ceremony , the laying of the first stone ofthe monarchic edifice . Two bends have fallen under the bloody knife , which had been deprived of its royal functions by the republicans of February—two guilty heads , indeed , but which were protected against death by the will of the sovereign people and the law of the constitution . Yes , the moderates , tbat debonnair and kind party , wbich calls us red , bas trodden under foot the work of the people and the constitution , in order to give itself the royal pleasure of causing two beads to fall upon the scaffold . Tbey have

      remained faithful to the good and healthy traditions ofthe monarchy . May that blood never flow back upon tbem . May tbat horrible precedent never rise against them . And yet , how can they justify that cold cruelty , g iving the lie t o a grea t and ho l y revolution , in order to return to the executioner hi . * knife and his prey ? What social necessity can excuse this scandal of murder and blood , t his homicide coldly accomplished and long premeditated in the silence of the passions and in the security of strength , Ever pitiless , these moderate _guillotiners , whose revenge is accomplished by turns with the hatchet or t he dagger , prevotal courts or courts martial ; these ¦ Moderates who , dsaf to the groans of the poor and t he oppressed , have never shed a tear except on the m sfortunes of ths high , who danced on the warm bodies of those whom they had massacred , dare bv

      ch a ng ing parts and by leaving to history and lo their consciences , t o br a nd us , t o d e fame us , republicans , as drinkers of blood 1 We , who curse these abominable holocausts—these atrocious sacrifices , consummated in broad day light , in the name of the law and of socie t y ; we , who deny tbat society has a rig ht t o dispose ofthe life of a man , seeing that it does not g ive tbat life , and that it would thereb y take that wbich belongs not to it . We , who have always and everywhere demanded the abolition of the punishment of death—are we to be called drinkers " of blood ? But the purveyors of the guillotine are moderates . More than ever we congratulate ourselves on having no t hing in common with these sinister and sanguinary moderates . Let them go and mount guard round the scaffold , the red . Republicans are again read y to overthrow it . But what did the President of the

      R e public , that conspirator , that amnestied convict what did he when the heads of Lahr and Daix rolled on the scaffold ? The president lay reposing in slumber after the fatigues of the bail of the eve , in order to prepare for those of the ball of the morrow . He was dreaming of the 600 _, 000 f . which the National Assembly has just granted him for bis menus _plaisirs . ' This production was dated Sal ins , the 24 th of March , and si gned A . Sommier . Several parts of it were applauded by some of the members of the Left , It was immediately on the conclusion of the last paragraph relating to the president , that the scene already mentioned occurred .

      Many versions are given of the affair ; suffice it to say that all at once a tumult was heard on the left , just behind the ministerial benches , and then a most violent scene might be _witnessed , The members all hurried round an elderly representative , who appeared in the utmost agitation , and on whom his friends were lavishing aid and consolation ; other members rushed from the right . The ushers ran up to stop the tumult , but the crowd had in a moment become so compact , that they were unable to f fleet their object . ' 'A number of members were then seen all struggling together—several of the left dashed over the seats to reach the scene of confusion—a

      large stick was handed down , but was seized by a member on its passage , and flung away—the whole assembly wash y this time on foot—the ' confusion was ofthe most painful description—and the President put on his hat to intimate that the sitting was suspended . The struggle however went on , without any one at first seeming to know what it was all about , when , at the end of nearly ten minutes , the ushers and some of his friends succeeding in leading M . Pierre Buonaparte out of the chamber , the members of the dense crowd gradually unclosed their hold , and with disarranged dress , heated faces , and e x asperate d looks , withdrew to their places . The word imbecile'had . been used , and M . Pierre Buonaparte had given a box on the ear to M . Gastier .

      The President , acting on one of the articles of the r e gul a ti o ns , ordered M . Pierre Buonaparte at once into custody ; but , with a partiality which created great surprise , he ordered M . Gastier to , be also ar . rested—the insulted as well as the insulter . This untoward incident terminated the discussion on the report above mentioned , and the authorisation was accorded by a largemajority . After the close of the sitting , M . Dupin seems to have thought better of the manner in which he ought ( o have acted , for he ordered the release of M . Gastier from confinement , whilst M . Pierre remained in durance vile . He w * as let out also on Saturday . It seems that the council of state , to which was referred the matter of M . Lpsaeps , has passed a vote of blame against that functionary .

      Paris ,, Sunday . —The Assembly was prorogued yesterday , de faoto , without any ceremony . The honours of the last moments of the sitting were divided between M . Lagrange , who urged the injustice of keeping political prisoners on the pontoons , and M . _Sameyra , whose interpellations oa the stale of siege were not listened to . A letter from Verdun states that 360 privates of tbe 4 th Hussars have been dismounted , and have been ordered to march on foot to Toulon , to be em . barked for Algeria . This measure is supposed to liavebeen adopted in consequence of these men having manifested extreme democratic opinions . - A _l-tler from Strasburg _Btates that a major of Artillery , in garrison in that town , had been arrested and committed to the civil pruon .

      A Socialist , named Jeroy , was sentenced hy the Court of Assize of Paris on Saturday laifc to iropri . sonmentfor six months , for having sold a political song called . ' The Ball and the ' . _Guillotine . ' The penalty of death pronounced against Captain Kleber was commuted into that of ten vears' imprisonment and degradation . Lieutenant and Mrs . Heald ( Lola Montez ) have _aniyed in Paris . .. the : _- . Journal des Debats' states that theindem . nity of 75 , 000 , 000 due by Peidmont to Austria , hB 8 already been pa _. d by the house of _RothBchild , on account of the former Power .

      le President , ' were almost drowned > in the cries of ' Vive la Republique / ' _Tivejla Constitution . ' The great event of the day . however , was ; the speech of tlie Mayor of Havre , ' which hasi _/ given enormous offence to the friends of Louis Napoleon , and which is considered _asla direct atlacksiipon the imperial pretensions attributed to the / President . M . Bertm said : — ' You have guaranteed to ns that insurrec tions have no chance of success . We hope so , You

      will not suffer either that any political party should attempt an impossible dynastic insurrection . Be the first regular founder of the French Republic . Let the love of France be your crown , and your glory will be immortal . Washington had no other , and his memory will be eternal _., Long live the _president of the Republic 1 ' The President was so angry that ( the - Debats' says , ) instead of the speech which he h a d prepared for t be occasion , he only said afew extempore words in proposing prosperity to the town

      of Havre . t M . Lizabe , one of the agents of the ex-Tnumvir Mazzini , was arrested on Monday morning in Paris , at the residence of a lady who bad concealed him . The . _* - Reforme * was seized in Paris on Monday . HE-APPEARANCE OF THE ' REFORME . ' On Monday last the ' Reforme' re-appeared , we extract the _following from its hading article : — ' On the 13 th of June the ' Reforme' fell , under tbe violence of the state of siege ; its offices were searched , seals were placed on its doors , its establishment was militarily occupied . and for two months

      it has remained _gatrge-d . We will not complain today , of the savage manoeuvres , . accomplished- in the middle of the nig ht , after two successive seizuresi which ought to have sufficed to the government as they secured its _vengeances Events have since proved to us the object and bearing ol these violent expeditions ; it was desired to turn to account the journee of M . Changarnier , b y c r ushing all tbe public liberties , and consequently it was nesary , to silence all tbe free voices , and the journals of the revolution . We know that the royalist journals , which alone were able to speak during . the iniermede pf the police , have exhausted all calumnies to cause to _^ weigh on us , in the opinion and

      _before the justice of the country , the double res . _ponsibility of a long organised plot and of a flagrant revolt . Faithful to their custom of provoc a tion and falsehood , and not having to dread the contradiction ofthe proscribed , they have _constructed a system of infamous accusations and burlesque calumnies , hoping thus to poison the public mind , a n d e x cite its wrath against us . But whatever may be the impudence and cunning of these men ; and although preventive justice has collected all ' their calumnies to form grounds for an accusation , whilst the government itself has publicly sanctioned all the monstrous accusations , produced by _vengeance and fear , the hour of discussion has at length arrived , and truth makes itself seen . What were the causes and

      what the _venlaMs signification ofthe acts accomplished by the republicans in the journee of the 13 ih ? The constitution was violated in one of its essential articles by the expedition to Rome ; the resolutions of the Constituent were brutally disregarded ; the government of the republic betrayed both the fundamental law and its engagements . Well ! in this fearful crisis what did the press of the revolution ? It called public op inion to the succour of the institutions ; it engaged all devoted citizens to make a pacific but powerful protest against the imp ious war which dishonoured France by the assassina t ion o f a peop le ; and the _citizens of Paris

      assembled in a p halanx , but without arms , at that demonstration . Itwas then that with ail the fury of his hatred and resentment the General _Capta ' n Changarnier intervened . This man of war had one hundred thousand soldiers under his hand , all his measures of defence were taken , all his fores distributed , all his strategic points guarded and connected . There was therefore no reason to fear a 15 th May * or a . battle _^ of June , or an armed attack of any kind in the capital surrounded with bayonets , and as full of military posts , as a n enemy ' s to « n ; _but-the policy of the government _ai _* d the glory o ' the great captain require that there should be a

      victory . Accordingly M . Changarnier threw himself on the crowd without arms , which pro t ested pacifically , in the . name of national honour and violated contracts . The column was dispersed by chargers I' qfrieaine , and the rumour of these acts of violence having spread like flame favoured by tbe wind , some deputies , who were menaced b y them , proceeded to the Arts et Metiers , accompanied by a feeble escort , to seek shelter against such savage fury . The judicial investi ga t ion will soon do jus t ic e on all the fables invented aprcs coup , with respect to thin grand attentat , _» 9 it is now called _Jn pelic _* _language . We are without fear in this _rejpect and

      __ , piblic opinion will see by the facts on what party its disdain and resentment shonld fall . Such are the principal facts and causes of the joum e e of June ; and if our reader swill examine the results and the consequences , they will understand why" the _<* ov _* rnment has displayed so much passion to falsif y , aggravated awl transform them into state crimes ' Has it not behind this victory , and b y means of t he state of siege , suppressed the clubs , suspended t he ri ght of meeting , enchained the press , decimated tbe Asse m bl y , proscribed the chiefs of a party , anrt w i t hin ei ghteen months after February founded a dictatorship , which , by court-martial , _rendeis it

      enemies sub-set to the executioher ? Was it not under the shade of these easil y gained laurels thait « as able to bring to a favourable conclusion the attempted _assassination of the Roman republic to succeed in the last elections of Paris , and to group at the feet of'the presidency a majority which at its desire , attacks all the public liberties ' In this rapid expose we have only noticed the principal points of the accusation for the details we await the marvels of the judicial investigation ; but ns to the principal facts , we affirm that the plot of 13 th June i 8 wholly in the pacific demonstration , and that no other attentat was committted than the charges of M . Changarnier . 8

      The ' Droit' states that the responsible editor of the ! Reform _^ , ' wliich was _spizsd yesterday , ls to be prosecuted for its article on the affair of the 13 th of June , for having rendered himself guilty of the double ofi-Vnce of exciting hatred and contempt for the government of the republic , and justifying acts which are designated as crimes by the penal law The first number of tbe _Bibliotheque des Enfans du Peuple has been seized , nnder a charge of pro vocation given to the land and sea forces for the purpose of turning _^ them away from the obedience which they owe to their chief .

      UNITED STATES . New * York , July 31 . —The cholera continues ifa ra v ages amon g st us , and is apparently on the increase in this citv . On Monday tbe cases were 189 , the deaths 81 . The greatest anxiety prevails with regard to it . As yet few people of note have fallen victims , these b ? . ing generally of the class of emigrants , and Irish in particular . The poor miserables fly from famine and death in tlieir own countries only to find graves here . The political world is quiet at present . It is supposed Mr , Benton intends , if possible , to be the antislavery candidate for the presidency , irrespective of parties . '' ,. " , had broken

      From Cuba we learn that tbe cholera out at San Jago , and the yellow fever was raging terribly at Havana . Apropos to this , I have to state that our government is likely to have some difficulty with the _Captain-General . A frw weeks ago , a refugee from Havana arrived at New Orleans . Hu offence consisted in having liberated from prison two political offenders . Tbis person , it has been satisfactorily _ascertRined , was made drunk , or was drugged through tbe means of the Spanish _consul i put on board a schooner ( an American , I a m sorr y to say , ) and carried back to Havana , where he will be put to death , The circumstantial evidence against the consul is strong . he has been arrested , ; held to bail , and will be tried for kidnapping . The people of New Orleans are in a state of fury at the

      occurrence , and do not hesitate to ascribe to the same influence the death of another exile in that city who was obnoxious to the Spanish captain-general . Loud demands for reparation are made , the immediate action of the American government is invoked , and a rquadron is called for , to proceed to Cuba , to demand the liberation of the unforiunate captive , t have no doubt something will be done- Popular : sentiment requires it , and though the policy of Gen . Taylor is tbat of non-intervention , it " may suit the temper of the times to make an hostile demonstration on the island . The capture of the Moro castle under any p lea , would be the signal for an island insurrection , and after that there is no knowing what mi ght happen ! AH the Havanesewho come tothe United States are in favour of throwing off theoppresive yoke of Spain .
