FiiOAl THE UONTINENT.
We have accounts from Vienna to the 01st
o! Jane, ulnch are confused and contradictory,
p isadnittcd. however,that.lellachich the Ban
njCrortia. has been completely defeated by the
.Majvars under Item, who. it appears, crossed
t ,e To us" Canal at the head ot 50 000 men
and took the encampment of the Croats by
storm.
We have the version of a sharp action that
t,>ok plaee near Waits,:n, between Georgej and
ilie Austrian Generals Sass and Romberg. Tl,e
bulletin sa\s that on the lath the Hungarian ar
iii_\ inarched upon Waitsen, then occupied by
I lie Russians, u ho, according to orders, fell bark
as the enemy advanced. At night Georgey oc
rupied a strong position before Waitsen. 11 is
army, estimated at i 4,000 men, with 150 pieces
el' artillery, was attacked the next morning by
the advance guards under Sass, but the artillery
of the Hungarians foiled every attempt to dis
lodge them.
On the 10th tAuiin body of the Russian ar
my \\ as brought the 17th they attack
cil Waitsen, and Tq a desperate
resistance ttie llunrtSßßt were compelled to
ivaeuate ttie town two standards, 2
i nun, and 500 prisoners. In the course of the
, -uit it was found that only the rear guard of
Cn- Hungarians had been engaged, their main
army having marched to the North.
Private accounts say that Sass had abandon
i J W aitsen on the 15th, and that Georgey,march
iu.r along the left bank of the river, took up a
strong position near Waitsen. At this junction
Dembinski s army of 40,000 men, slowly edging
awav from the mining district, came down upon
Sass who was compelled to retreat to Duria-
Keph, midway between Waitsen and Pesth.—
Gen. Romberg, learning at Pesth of the defeat
of the Rnssians, hastened to their support and
suceedeil in stopping the progress of Dembin
ski's army, which eventually fell back upon
Waitsen. The main body of the Russians, in the
meanwhile, came from Rontrcs and its whole
strength brought to bear upon the Hungarians
flank, which led to a great battle ending in the
defeat of Dembinski's army. Georgey led his
troops to the North and not to Comorn as was
generally believed. It is said that Georgey
will turn off" to the East and march to lvais.
EXUI.AXD. —A large and enthusiastic meeting
was held at London tavern to express public
opinion in regard to the efforts being made by
ike Hungarians for independence, and to urge
upon the British Ministry a recognition of the
iL uclo government of Hungary. It is mention
id as a -ignificant fact that a Quaker moved the
nrsi resolution, which proves that the efforts of
Hungary are fully appreciated and understood,
wlu n they thus overcome the scruples of mem
bers of the Peace Society.
FRANCE. —Serious dissensions exist among
the majority of the Legislative Assembly, and
'he legitimists have determined to recede from
tranks of the Bonapartists and Orleanists,
sad form a separate party for themselves. The
articles which of late have appeared in the Le
gitimist organs show it. The tendency of this
movement is to unite the factions on the part of
the Due de Bordeaux and would seem to be
token the existence of an cxtensively'organized
Legitimist conspiracy.
ITALY. —It is announced that the troops who
recently received orders to embark for Italy,
and were recalled after the account of the sur
i>-: ler of Rome, are to be embarked for their
original destination.
Rome is under the military rule of General
Oudinot, and order and tranquillity prevail.
Ail public acts are rendered in the name of the
Pope. He continues living at Gaeta. It is
Mid he w ill soon proceed to Rome, fully cloth
ed with both temporal and spiritual authority,
and that the priesthood around him, having
learned nothing from past misfortunes, reso
lutely refuse concessions to the popular party.
Nothing is said as to how the French army is
to be paid, but it is reported that Russia has
agreed to lend his Holiness two millions with- ,
'.•■ it interest, the principal to be paid at the rate
of half a million annually.
The American Consul, at the latest advices,
hid not resumed his authority. When the
French soldiers attacked his office he withdrew
after protesting against the indignity.
Venice still holds out.
The N. rrist'.wri Herald contains the
following significant communication: i
To Mounts LOXGSTKKTH, Esq.
iSiK: —ln the toast seen by you to the
i coloco celebration, at Philadelphia, you
-ay thai 'it is not the fault of the Canal

It will save from 2 to a pecks ot seed per

! than the broad cast seeding, by distributing
the grain uniformly at any desired depth, and
| leaving a ridge of earth between the rows.
The roots of the young plant are protected
during the winter by the action of the frost
I and rain mouldering the earth upon them, in
stead of being thrown cut and exposed as in
j broad cast On this account the stalk is
; stronger and less subject to mildew, and is not
i so liable to injury by the fly.
The farmer is trequently prevented by rain
! from harrowing in his grain after it is sown,
! which harrowing is neediess in seeding with
j this machine as it completes the work at once.

Thompson <|* Heed: Esteemed Friends—
I have hud the Pcnnock Drill in use tor two
seasons, and from the vast difference in the
wheat crop over the broad cast, it is my decid
ed opinion that every larmer should have one
I of them, as he will be a gainer of at least one
i third on each acre of his crop.

.1/r. Abner Thompson: Dear Sir—The
Pennock Drill I got from you last summer,
worked to my entire satisfaction, in rough and
smooth ground. Each tube and hopper work
ing separate and independent ot each oilier, is
a decided advantage, by escaping rocks, roots,
sowing point rows, <fcc., and from the appear
ance of my crop at this time, there will be a
better yield to the acre than on what 1 sowed
' broad-cast, besides a saving of one halt bushel
ot seed to the acre. 1 believe it is one ot thj
most profitable agricultural implements in use
. by the farming community.

works separate and independent of each other;
it will sow all irregular shaped land and point
