Lanishes going on upon the whole line for
:some .14 days, at last resulted in a battle
•on the 21st, which turned out untitvorably
:for. the Magyars... Cut ofis,-as we are, from
the frontier on the other side, so that not
even the mostfuvored persons can procure
a visum on their passports, we can only
• ' , partially correct end 'complete, the Austri

land 'of Schutt, this side of tho Wang, in
.the direction of the fortress of Comoro, &
.-extend6d.up to Galantha and hered, and
.'wo.s.Sought with such superior forces by
the Hungarians, that on' the 20th, after six
hour's Struggle, and On the' 21st, after 12
'hours;.it was decided in their favor., The '
Austrians lost many of their positions.—
The Hungarians also crossed the Wang at
Farkeld; and advanced as far as Pered.- 1
-.From.the :fads it appears that they were
- . - .. masters of the Wang. On several points
•ofthe river they had thrown across bridg
.es, and the Imperialists dared not set a foot
.on the other side. However, on the 22d
-came- the reinforcements from Presburg,
---;Rotershof, Vosing---and St, Georgen-;-a
inongthem.a corps ofßussians under Gen.
'Patijutin... This completed the Imperial
. line of battle, and in each army there were
'llO,OOO or 70,000 men,, with 80 cannon
on the Austrian, and 86 on the Hungaii
an side.
The battle was obstinate and protracted.
*.Thousands of dead. are said to cover the
field, and toward evening the Hungarians
::withdrew. in good order across the Wang.
- The - Imperialists did not cross the river to
pursue the retreating enemy, & this proves
• that tho defeat was not a complete one.—
'The loss on the Imperial side is enormous.
.More than 120 wagons loaded with woun
, ded: have, been carried to Presburg, and
.-some have also come here. The Russians
:are said to have behaved well. They did
- not advance - to the attack, ' but then they
did not budge, notwithstanding they were
in a shoWer of grape. Their decimated
ranks were filled. again in a twinkling, so
.that'the machine got into no disorder. Be
-Side short telegraphic despatches, nothing
official has yet appeared worthy of atten
tion. • Had such a thing happened as' the
evacuation of the island of Schutt and the
advance . of the imperial armies to the walls
• of Comorn, we should certainly have heard;
~of it; suchevents would be of too much'
importance notto. be instantly communi
. sated to ,the 'public.
Another correspondent in the same pa
-per. writes: ,
The victory of the Austrians and Rus
sians.is to . all appearances a very hard and
incomplete. one, for they do not continue
&act' on the defensive, and have not fol
lowed the Hungarians deross the Wang.
.The' Monosyllable and. laconic character
.of the information given concerning the
battle, by the Vienna journals of the 23d,
is very striking. If the Waag, which is
.ofeourse well guarded by the Hungarians,
should be crossed we shall soon hear of
decisiVe battles on that side,

THE FRENOI AT Ro3lll.—Letters unc
papers from Paris tire of June 20th, eve
ning. A correspandont writes thus:
• "We tire still, another day without any
authentic news from Mime, and the delay
has given rise, to a variety of rumors. The
members of the government do not expect
to hear of the capitulation . to-day, from
which we may infer that they have some
news of an untitvorable nature, which ena
bles them to arrive at that opinion. The
Romans have, from "till accounts, made
most formidable preparations for a desper
ate defence; and boldly declare their deter
mination to resist to the last. On the day /
previous to General Oudinot's assault on
the vas, he made new propositioas for te
capitulation, but the Romans refused to
listen to them.. ,
"The expedition is becoming every day
more and more unpopular in Paris; and ev
ery party endeavors to throw the blame of
it on his neighbor. Tim President 'and
tbe r rninisters_are,it is. admitted, .all_equal
ly blameable (if blame there be) for the
despatch of the expedition to Civita Vec
chia ; but as to the great blunder—that of
advancing upon Rome—the President re
pudiates it—M. Odillon Barrot repudiates
it; and every one seems disposed to throw
the Wine upon the Viscount de Falloux
and ,M. Thiers, both of whom, it is said,
strongly recommended it, under the belief
that' the Romans would open their gates
the moment the French army appeared.
The President of the republic is said to de
clare opinly, that he objected to the ad.
vance upon Rome from the beginning, and
that he is only to blame in having allowed
himself to be over-persuaded by MM.
Thiers,..FallouX, and one who can no lon
ger defend himself, (Bugeaud.")
The Paris correspondent of the Morning
Herald says: .
"The government are said to be in pos
session of intelligence' from Rome calcu
lated to lead to the expectation of a surren
der by the Roman government. General
Oudinot is master of both. walls and of.the
adVanced works; and, being in a position
which places the city at his mercy, should
behave recourse to the horrors of a bom
bardment rather than engage his men in
the streets, he has offered terms of accom
modation which There is reason to think
that, through the intelligent agency of M.
de Corcellcs, wilt be accepted.'
PROGRESS OF . TIIE SlEGE.—Oudinot's
bulletins havebeen of the old sort—much
braggadocio, with minute details of the
number and weight of the shot fired by
the French,. and Very little about the sor
tics of the Romans and the checks_experi- 1
enced by the besiegers; although the valor
of the besieged is admitted. More than
ever, if paSsible,have the French suppres
sed accounts from Rome, and even from
Civita Vecchia ; but, in spits of all their pre
cautions, it became known on. the night of
the 15th that the Romans had made a sor
tie with 8,000 men, and had fought with
persevering gallantry hand to hand with
the French in the trenches for hours—
They were encountered by the 36th in
fantry regiment; who, according to Oudi
not's bulletins, killed 1.00 Romans, while
they had only ten men killed, for to that
number Oudinot frequently limits his loss
es. On the 16th, 2,000 Romans, covered
by the fire of their artillery, attacked the
Ponta Molle—with what success is not sta
ted; and we must therefore ; Tresume that
this silence did not proceed from any bash
fulness on - the part of the French General,
which would prevent him intim singing his
own prafsei had he gained any victory,
however trifling. The foundry of projec
tiles at Porto d'Atizio had fallen into the
hands of the French, who had seized there
a large quantity of ammunition of all sorts.
This was, no doubt, a heavy loss to the
Romans, while every day the Parisians
were led to believe they would receive ti
dings that the French were masters of the
Eternal. City ; and indeed there were sev
eral statements of Rome having fallen, &
we perceive that some of our Irish -Can
temporaries, liberal. Roman CatboliC jour
nals, could exult in so nefarious a triumph!
In Paris itself . there, were not wanting per
sons who. iShed that their countrymen 4—

THE PARTICULARS.
An extra from the Thinaqt ta Legion

thrown
,under the building by a servant

and crossing Market SqUare, runup on the

Harlan's large three story brick dwelling,
which with a wide alloy, aided to check its
progress, But for this fortunate circum

efforts oh the part or. the citizens, nearly
the whole of the town would now be, in ru

Great praise and credit is due to the cit
