"Vienna, Aug. 17, 1849."
The:German papers contain the fullest
information concerning Gorgey'S surren
der.7,llt appears from these papers that
the power of M. Kossuth has been over,
thrown by on intrigue of the other flun
rtrian loaders. ,
Our correspondent gives us an account
cif the,,events which preceded Gorgey's
surrender. Referring to an early report
of Oorgey haying crossed the .Theiss wi!lt
his army, our correspondent proceeds to
say that after Gorgey's crossing the The
issl oil. the 31st ult., both the Austrian and
theßussianGenerals were at a loss where
td.findltim: •
,"Ott the Ist continues our cor
respondent, " Gen. Grubb received orders
to follow the plan of operations originally
laid down for him, which was to pacify
the..western Hungarian counties. The
Russian MarShal states that after he had
routed Nagy Shandor before Debreczin,
he determined to wait in that city until
Gorgey, ' who had retired from the neigh
borhood of Tokuy,' should conic down to
the...south. Previously to a detailed ac
count of the battle with Nagy Shandor,
which is given, the Marshal remarks that,
on his arrival at Ujvaros, he could .(rain no
tidings of the enemy, as he forma the in
habitants . of the country
. scr. attached to
Gorgey that he could get no spies. Be
fore the battle,' says Prince Paskiewitsch,
I could not learn whethether four squad-.
ron, 18,000 men, or Gorgev with his whole
army, was at Debrecziu.'
..• Our correspondent informs us that M.
.Kossuth bas established his government at
Orshova. From the news that has reach
ed us, it appears that only part, though in
deed a large part of Gen. Gorgey's army
.surrendered, nor is there
. any reason to
believe that the other Hungarian. corps
will immediately sub - scribe to the terms,
: or rather to the no terms which Gen. Ger
gey has made for himself and followers.
Veyertheless, to all . appearance the surren
der of so large a part of the Hungarian
forces musVventually prove a deathblow
to, the Hungarian rising. Already does
the want of Gorgey's corps make itself
fclt,for we have intelligence—and we have
new no reason to discredit it—that Raab
is again in the hands of the, ImperialistS.
It is also stated that the. Hungarian army
in Transylvania was, on the Ist , inst., de
feated at.Muldbach and Reussmarkt.
Our German papers, too,. confirm the
date news of the occupation of Grosswar
dein by Paskiewitsch, and of Tcnicsvar
by Haynau. General Haynau's despatch
states that the Hungarian army which be
siegedTemesvar was defeated after a battle
yr
of many hours, and utterly routed. Gen.
Schlick"'s Corps, took 300 prisoners ; the
rest of the Hungarian army made a hur
ried and confused retreat, and the Hunga
rians destroyed the gun-factory which they
• had established near Temesvar. The Im
perialist troops were too much exhiusted
to follow up their victory. They found
the city and fortress of Temesvar in a'de
p!orable sta:c. That fortieSs was under
the command of the Gukowina, who was
resolved to hold out to the last before he
surrendered to the Hungarians. 2400 of
his men had died of typhus during the
siege, 300 were killed by the Hungarian
projectiles, and 2000 arc confined to the
hospitals.
The Russians and Austrians arc now
.advancing, -against Arad. There is but
scanty intelligence of the position of the
Hungarian armies. Dembinski's troops
are collecting on the left bank - Of the Mar
osh; midway between Arad and Szegedin,
to threaten Haynau's operations' against
'Arad - ; but they, in their turn, are griev
ously threatened by the corps of the Gen
erals Remberg and Schtick.
VIEr iiA, Aug. 17.—Haynau's bulletin
of the, from Temesvar, has'to=day
been published. it states that after the
. battle of : Szdreg, the pursuit Was contin
--, ned.'i The insurgents attempted' to make
a stand At O'Besepyo, AlbreehesThir; and
11Iarienfeld, but in vain, .for they were
speedily , routed: by the third army corps
and the cavalry division, under Wallmo
den. The Lanstrum was completely dis
persed, and a great many deserters, prin...
cipady Imperial troops, which had been

Whcn the third iliVision,.,.Penititine's
RuSsians, and the cavalry diVision from
Kis-Becskerek, came up with the enemy,
a battle Bonn fenced, which lasted till tow
ards evening, although from what I learn
from ,private sources, the Magyars fought
very badly, depending.entirely upon their .
artillery, and : retreating Nrlirnc. ye the Jim.
perialists attempted to come to.close,
ters with them, Which explaih'S ii paSsage
in the bulletin—"that the infantry did not
come into action at all." As at dusk AO
Austrian commander had satisfied himself
that the enemy was in full retreatiletle
termined to reacliTemesvar the 'sante eve
Mug, and accordingly set elfin. person at
the head of four squedron and a few bn ttal
ions for the fartkoss,l 'The enthusiasm
with which he was revived by the inhab
itants of the town .. was tremendous. Du
ring the battle, the garrison also made a
sally, and did the enemy considerable dam ,
age. Geu. Haynau speaks in the' highest:
terms of the gallantry and self-devotion of,
his. troops, who, eller a march of 15 Eng
lish miles, without refreshment, fought un- .
til nightfall with the greatest courage.
The reserve division reached the Times,
var-Arad highroad in time, not only to
capture four 24-poinlers, several anima
nition cars, stud innumerable baggage wa
gons, but to cause unspeakable confusion
in the enemy's minks. Lieutenant-I - 41d.
Schlick's division took 300 prix-1
oners, and got possession of a large maga-
Zinc full of regimentals:
The Commander-in-Chief has left the
first division to int-est Arad, and concen
trated his army at Temesvar, with one
advanced guard at Renistei and another
close to the river Tellies. The Magyars,
completely routed, fled in the wildest dis
order towards Lugos, galloping away with
their baggage wagons, cannon, and tun
mOnition wagons, ell unveil up together
in
hopeless confusion. The enemy's infant
ry is almost completely dispersed. • Dem
binsky, Guyon, hmeti, Yecsoi, and Bern,.
who had arrived at noon on the 9th, were
in the gun factory near Temesver (whichl
the insurgents themselves destroyed) as
late as 9 o'clock in the evening of the same
day, but the cavalry was too exhausted to'
attempt any pursuit. Great heaps ofiverip
ons covered the field of battle, and . whole
troops of deserters and prisoners were con-1
tinually brought in. (Mlle latter, Hay-
Mt took 6000 from the 9th to the 10th.
The city of Temesvar is a complete ruin,
and the Commander-in-Chief cannot suift
ciently praise the enduring courage) 'of tho
garrison and its commander, Rukoyina,
3,400 men died of typhus during the siege,
307' were killed bytho enemy's projec
tiles, 1,400 arc in the hospital, and AO6
who are also ill have been obliged to re
main in their quarters us there is no room
for them elsewhere. The fortifications
are almost uninjured, excepting three faces
of bastions, which are almost damaged.—
The want of horned cattle was so . •
that the people had been eating horseflesh
for 18 days.
I can inform you, from an official
• source,
that the Imperialists are again in Raub,
and that the insurgents have 'withdrawn,
partly towards Segcred, and partly to Co
moro. The Minister of War, Count Gy
ulai, conducts the operations in person.
P. S.—l have just learned from..o.66(l'mi
thority, that Kossuth has established him
self, with his Ministers, at Orsoya.
We have private accounts from Tran
sylvania of a victory gained by the us
sflios at Muldback and Reussmarkt on the
Ist. The insurgents fled towards Knrls
burg, the siege of which fortress has been
raised by Janke, the nomancn
,Prefect.
Vienna papers and letterS of the 19th
inst., inform of the surrender of the for
tress of Arad to the Imperialists. This
important event took place on the 10th
inst.
From the Vienna and German papers it
appears that the Austrian capitol is in n
state of great excitement at the almost un
suspected run of good. fmtune Which has
fallen to the share of the Irripeirial armS,
and that a variety °framers arc abroad as
usual. It was even said that Comorn had
surrendered, but our correspondent pro
tests that this is wholly unfounded; though
it appears7that Georgey sent instructions
to Klapka, advising`him to make an early
surrender. Nothing is known of the where
abouts of M. Kossuth and of General Bern;
but it is thought that they are still at'br
shove, or perhaps at Wallachia.
prom a proclamation
.of General Bern,
dated from 'Sehassbarg of the 25th Ult., it
appears that the regular campaign in Trian
sylvania is all but ended. .Berrt states that
at the battle of St. Georgey, "the behav
kii.Of the troops, noranswer to his ex
peCtations," and that he was "extremely
dissatisfied with the coniluet of the: fOot.
And in another part of the proolarriation it
is stated that,the confused shouting. during
the battle, drowned the word Of Command ?

[The statements embodied - in the follow.
ing letters from Kossuth, in ilk; London
Times, dated Vienna, August 15tli, go far
to enlighten us as to the antecedent cir
cumstances which led to what yet we can
not but look upon as the inexplicably sud
den defeat and disaster whiCh have befal
len the cause of Hungary. 'A series of
letters, written by Kossuth, had come to
light. They evidently were, intended to
be kept in the Magyar camp, andl>y what
means they were published, we arc not
informed, nor is it material to our - present
purpose, which is to show, that it was in a
great measure owing to the want

in our columns, came tipori and crushed

Towards the middle of July Gen. Bern
was to have received the sum of 800,000
florins in notes of '3O and 15 kreutzers,
'(ls. 6d.) from Kossuth, but the latter was . ,
'only able to send him 125,000'florins in
addition to the sum which be had lbrward-,
ed him from Szolnok, on; the 9th'of
same month. Kossuth points out to the
PoliSh chief the 'difficulties of his position,
it being utterly impossibly to ;fabricate any
notes for the moment,: as it requires 14 )
days to put up the pres.ses'which hild been
taken to pieces at DAreezie and Pesti).

From the New Orlctuis Picnyunr, A uosi 4 2 . 3
The Iley Abtlitellon Case.
Pr. Franklin Gage, formerly of the I
U. S. army, arrived here yesterday with
Juan Garcia,a/ias Rey, on board the brig
Salvadoradtho man who was abducted
from this city, by
. the Spanish Consnl and
his etnisaries.] •
We learn that Dr. Gage brought a letter
of instructions from Gen. Campbell, the
American Consul at Havannali,,to the U
nited States district attorney, was be
lieved that Rey's testimony would be of
the utmost importance to our government,
and that he would arrive .before the trial
here had terminated.
Rey was given up at the request of
General Campbell, after an interview with
El-Conde de Alcoy of several hours' du
ration, the latter knowing, we presume,
that if the request were refused, a forcible
demand would be made. In the absence
of Mr. Hunton, the United States distridt
attorney, Dr. Gage promptly delivered
Rey to Mr. E. A. Bradford, the partner
and representative of Mr. Hinton.
It was the opinion of the Americans at
Havannah that no action would bC taken
by our government, as it had heretofore
never interfered with outrages committed
by the authorities of Cuba on American.
citizens. The extraordinary casp.of Na,
thanicl Cross, the consular agent at Mat
anzas, who was imprisoned, and deserted
by our government, was cited.
The greatestexcitement prevailed in Ha
vannah among the Americans, as well:as
the Creoles of the island; and there w'as
no doubt that • -Rey- would have been gar
otted (strangled) had not the 'intervention
of the consul taken place. It was believed
that the American.Consnl had received 4r
derS to make a formal. demand for Rey,
if he were not ,iMmediately given up.—
It has been intimated also that Aleonde de
Alcoy had received instructions from tl:c
Spanish minister at Washington to deliver
up Rey immediately on den - rand by this
government; but this is merely conte.ctu
ral.

The Abduction case at New Orleans,
We noticed briefly,, a few weeks since,
the case of tbe'alleged abduction of a.man
named llnit; . from New Orlean.4 through
the agency - of the Spanish Consaat that
place,' acting„as was, supposed, Nvith the
connivance ofthe Captain Gen. (or Goer-..
nor) of Cuba,. The Spanish Consul Was'
seized by that American authorities, and
taken before. a . magistrate, where a hear
ing, was had. At this investigation a let.
ter was produced on the part of the d*
fence from. the abducted Rey, written at
davana, stating, among other things, that
he had not been abducted, but had left the
United States of leis own free will. Not
withstanding, however, the hearing ended
by the magistrate requiring the Consult()
give security for his appearance before a
high& tribunal in November next, to an
swer the charge of abducting and forcibly,
arrying out of the country, without au
thority of law, nail in violation of our flag,
the person of a man who had soughOhe
protection of the broad stripes and stairs of
our country.
Thus the matter rested for a few days,
allowing time enough for the excitegient
'to begin to die away, when thewhole pop
.of New - Orleans were suddenly
brought upop end by the appearance of
the veritable Hey in their midst, having
just arrived from Havana, where he was
restored to his rights and liberty thrOugh
the energy . and vigilance of Gen. CAup
m,L, the American Consul. ,Rey now
states that the declarations' Contained in
his letter denying his abductiOn, and 'which
was produced at the hearing of the Consul
before the magistrate, were forced from
him by the threats of the Spanish author-
itics at Havana; and he further states, that
when seized at New Orleans and carried
on board the vessel that conveyed him to
Havana, he was first drugged, ank did not
resume his reason until far from succor.
• So fat'!'' en, as the personal rights of
DoitGaikeirt Rey arc concerned, this mat
ter may be easily settled. But there is a
point of far greater magnitude yet to be
adjusted. it; after a thorough legal inves.
Ligation, it shall appear that the Captain
General of Cuba, and the Spanish Consul
at New Orleans, were the instigations of
this wanton insult to our flag and viola
tion of our soil, as is alleged, the honor of
our; country demands the pOndign punish
went of the latter; and tliat the Court of
Madrid shall recalttlky former in diSgrace.
Nothing more--nothing less.

THE HUNGARIAN NEWS
The news which we this week give of
the defeat and surrender of the Hungari
ans must cause a thrill of sadness in the
heart of every American reader. All the
consolation we can afford is, that they may
doubt the authenticity of the accounts.—
Certain it is, that the chancesare greatly
in favor of their being highly exaggerated,
coming as they do, almost entirely through
Austrian sources.
The next steamer will dispel the pain
ful doubts, and which was expected to ar
rive
at St. John7s on yesterday.
VOCAL Musxc.—A tremendous impulse
ILA been given in this place during the
last ‘vcek to the desire to obtain a knowl
edge of vocal music. Ildr. }hunt; of Punx
sutawney, who is a master hand at it, has
our whole town—"froni five to sixty" in
charge, and they are going it on a perfect
swell. We hear scarce a soundebut that
of music- or some sort, if not,that of the fa;
sol, la's—do, ra, me's- 7 a may be per
haps the more spirit stirring strains of an
infant's screams.
It is right. We have great room for
improvement.`There are scarcely half a
dozen members ofeither of our congreg,a
nous able to sing in harmony.
GROWING.-Our town has greatly in.
creased during the past summer, both in
population and number of buildings. On
every hand we hear the noisy carpenter,
and several splendid new buildings are in
course of completion. Besides the new
buildings thus going up, many. otherciti
