He had nowhere met with any resistance;
hot does not account for the slowness of

Important Victory of the Hungarians.
—Letters from Constantinople, of the 25th
idf., sav that a courier from Galatz had
brought news that the Austrio-Kussian ar
inv 00.000 strong, which after it had com
pelled the Hungarian general, Perczel, to
retire, and had occupied Cronstadt and
llermanstadt, had advanced as far as Sar
cam, had been met bv Bern with 40,000
men. The latter immediately gave bat
tle to the imperialists, who were under
Gen. Landers.
The battle commenced on tho 10th by
a stratagem movement on the part of Bern,
by which he cut off* the left wing of the
Austrian atmy, attacking the right at the
-ime time, and compelling it to fall back
on the centre. General Bern seeing the
disorder of the enemy's lines, ordered the
reserve to advance, which, by a determined
an! gallant charge, decided the day in
fivor of the Hungarians. The imperial
i-:s took to flight, leaving onthefield 10,-
nOU dead and wounded, nearly all the ar
tillery, and 8000 prisoners, among whom
s Genera! Autemberg. Gen. Bern then
repossessed Cronstadt and llermanstadt.

The Vienna journals of the sth instant
supply us with news from Hungary of
creat importance, if true. It appears that
cn the 4th instant the Hungarians stole a
march, and surprised the garrison of Raab.
V sharp conflict ensued, which ended in
tho fortress and the city being occupied by
the Hungarians, where they found 80,000
bushels of oats, 2400 head of cattle, and
large stores of miscellaneous provisions,
which they carried to the citadel of Co
morn. Nor were these all the trophies of
•heir victory, for they captured six guns,
sr.d took two companies of Austrian in
untry prisoners. Kiapki commanded the
Hungarian troops, who afterward quitted
• .<• cifv of Raab, and took up their abode
a the fortress, whore they seized the Vten

THE CORN TRADE OF EUROPE,
i [ From tin London .Mercantile Gazelle, .lit*. 10.] !
II arvest has now fairly commenced in the
; southern and western counties, and more pro- !
pitious weather than we. have lately experienc- !
cd could not be desired. With the exception of '
a shower, on Tuesday night, no rain has fallen ; |
the heat has meanwhile been very great, and the j
I crops in the northern and more backward parts j
of the kingdom, are likely to arrive at maturity j
| earlier than appeared a short time ago at all \
probable. Our prospects on the whole may be ;
regarded as highly promising, and all that is !
now needed to insure an abundance of food of I
home growth, is a continuance of auspicious !
weather, for the ingathering. The crop, of all
kinds of grain received great benefit from Hie j
, rain, which fell in July ; the yield and quantity j
! were unquestionably improved thereby, and we j
| are disposed to think that the produce will :
; prove better both in quantity and quality than !
jin ordinary good seasons. AH fear in regard to i
i the potato seems to have subsided. The de- j
i mand for Indian corn has already falien off to \
I such an extent as to cause the value to recede
about 10s. per quarter, from the highest point. I
Prices of wheat have also retrograded material- j
ly of late, which latter circumstances must,
however, in a great measure be atti ibuted to the
fear of foreign supplies rather than to any prcs- |
ent abundance of that article. The Danish
blockade will be raised immediately. Letters
from Hamburg inform us, that port is to be de
clared free at twelve o'clock this night (Ktfh :
August,) and it is therefore probable, that about
the time when supplies of grain of home growth j
begin to come forward freely, the purchasers
made on Hritish account at northern continen- j
tal ports, since the 30th of April, will find their
way to this country. The anticipation of such |
an occurrence naturally renders all parties
holding stocks anxious to realise, whilst it has !
the eliect of inducing buyers to act with more j
than usual caution.
