Arrival of the bteamer America.
ONE WEEK LATER
Tenton Arrr Ovvici:, Sr. Jolty, N. B. j
Tuesday night Ang.7-12 o'clock.
The steamship America, Capt. Harrison, from
-Liverpool; July 28, arrived at Hallifax at about
12 o'clock this morning, 53 through passengers,
-and advicas from Paris to the 26th and London
paperS 'of the 27th ult.
The America will be duo at her wharf at a
late hour on Thursday afternoon.
Austria and Hungary.
It is difficult to decide intelligibly the milita
ry operations of the contending armies, as all
the•accounts from Vienna to the 21st tilt. are
exceedingly confused and contradictory. It is
admitted on all hands, however, that the treach
erous Ban of Crotia, Jellachich, has been com
pletely ,defeated by: the Magyars, under Bem.
It appears that Bern grossed the Fratie canal at
the head of 50,000 men, took the encampment
Of the croata by storm, and after a series of con
flicts, which lasted four days, compelled the
Imperialists to raise the scige of Peterwardein
and to evacuate the Baiska. The troops of the
Ban, dispirited by the defeat, and diminished
by sickness, can make no head against those who
have marched to.the South; and the imperialists
fear that he will enter Servia and Vonia. The
Ban has been driven over the Danube into Ser
via, and the Servian chief Kaickanim has been
forced to leave his poaltion at Litiz. Gen. Hay
nau has gone. With the third division to the sup
port of the 'Ban. Bern has entered Tyomber
amidit the acclamations of the people at the
head of 100,000 men.
COEPLETE Possession OP Tile SOUTH OP
NOR:AWL-From a Bulletin by Prince Paskie
witch, published in the Weiner Zeitung, we
have his version of a sharp action,which occur
red on the 17th, at or near Weitzen, between
Gen. Georgey and the Austrian Generals Sass
and Ramberg. The bulletin states that on the
15th the Hungarian army marched against
Waitzen, which was then occupied by the Rus
sian right, which according to former orders,
fell back as the. enemy adVanced. At night Gen.
George) , had occupied a strong position before
Waitzcn. His army was estimated at 44,000
men, with 120 pieces of artillery. He was at
pnce attacked by the advanced guard of the
Russians tinder Gen. Sass, but his powerful ar
tillery foiled all attempts that were made to
dislodge him. The cannonade on either side
Was very severe, and the Hungarian cavalry
executed several violent charges upon the Rus
sians on the poet.
On the 10th the main body of the Russian ar
my was brought up, and on the 17th the Rus
sians attacked Waltzes, and notwithstanding a
desperate resistence, the Hungarians were com
pelled to evacuate the town, with the loss of
two standards, two cannon, and 500 prisoners.
In the course of the pursuit it was found that
only the rear guard of the Hungarians had been
engaged, and their main army had marched to
the North. Gen. Rudiger, with his cavalry,
Was despatched in pursuit.
This is the substance of the bulletin, which a
Correspondent of the London Times qualifies, by
stating that it should be read with very great
distrust, or be looked Upon as the production of
Very disastrous news:
From private accounts it Will appear that
Sass had abandoned Waitzcn on the 15th, and
that General Georgey marched along the left
bank of the river, and tdok up a Strong position
near Waitron. At this junction Gen. Dembin
ski's army of 40,000 man, which had been slow
ly edging away from the mining disirict, came
down upon Gen. Saes, who was compelled to
retreat to the Duna Kelph, midway between
%Vaitzen and Pesth.
iii:AT;stritinilonerat Ramberg hearing at
Pesth of the defeat of the Russians, left that
tity and hastenel to their support, and succeed
ed in stopping the progress of Dembinski's ar
my, while he eventually fell back upon Wait-
Zen. The body of the Russian army meanwhile
canto from Rambus, and its strength was brought
to bear upon the Hungarian. flank and rear, by
whiith means on the 17th inst. n great battle
took place, which ended in the defeat of Dem
binski's army, while Georgey had taken his
troops to the North and not to Comorn, as .was
generally believed. It is thought Gen. Ueor
gey will turn off to the east and march p) Kay.
The Austrian Commander-in,chief had ad
vanced with his main army to Pesth, leaving
the main division in the Island of Huhn, and the
division of Gen. Grabbe and Schlick, arc on
either side of the Datitibe, to lay siege to the
fortress of Comorn.
England.
A very large and most enthusiastic
meeting has been holden in London tav
ern, to express public sympathy with
the efforts being made by the Hungari
ans for the achievment of their indepen
dence, and to urge upon the English
ministry the recognition of the de fdcto
government.
It is Mentioned as a significant fact,
that a Quaker moved the first resolution
which would go to provo that the friends
of Hungary are appreciated extremely,
when they overcome in a member of the
Pollee Society something like an abhor
rence of war. This feeling was strik
ingly certified by the meeting, when
some of the speakers, instead of mincing
expresions of sympathy, boldly propo
sed to aid the Hungarians by the taking
Up of arms against Austria. The whole
assemblage, packed together to suffoca
tion, rose as one man, and never, to use
the well remembered expressing of By
ron, was the "yell of war" in London
tavern shouted more vehemently. The
petition agreed to by the meeting has
been laid before Parliament, and elicited
nn interesting debate upon the affairs of
Hungary. Lord Palmerston demonstra ,
ted the improbability of the Goverment
interfering, except by using the bellige
rents for their own interests.
Sardinia.
The Sardinians, with, perhaps, a view
to favor the Hungarians, have been de
taining from day to day the execution
of the treaty of peace with Austria,
whereby a large body of the Austrian
fortes have been compelled to remain
in Lombardy, whilst they might be ad
yantageously employed in Hungary.
IltuCe.Sahwarzenbetg has sent into Sar
dinia a peremptory demand to sign the
treaty of peace in four days, or other-
Wise ,the war will be renewed.
This . sudden step. has agitated the
French and English cabinets, and com
plicates the .pending dispute. The
King of Sardinia in his difficulty has, it
is said appealed to the President of
Franco to arrange the existing difficul
ties with Austria. There is a report
from Paris, said to be formed on a tele
graph despatch to the Preach govern
ment, that the Sardinians hirtro finally
accepted the terms imposed by Austria.
The report, however, is bet fully cred
ited.
VENICE.—The prolonged resistance
of Venice says the Times, whose glori
ous defence against an overwhelming
force has added another page of imperi
shable splendor to her history—has
shown the world that the ancient city of
Italy has not departed forever.
France.
The committee on the question bf the
prorogation of the Assembly, recommen
ded that it should adjourn from the 13th
of Aug to the 30th of Sept. and that in
the meantime a Court of 25 should be
constituted to be chosen by ballot.
Serious divisions exist in the ranks
of a majority of the Legislative Assem
bly, and the Legitimatists have deter
mined to recede front the ranks of the
Bonapartists, and form a separate party.
The articles which have of late appear
ed in the Legitamists' organs show, it
is said a tendency to separate factions
on the part of the Due d'Bordeaux, and
would seem to be a token of the existence
of an extensively organized legitimatise
conspiracy.
It is announced that the troops who
had received orders to embark for Italy,
who had been countermanded after the
announcement of the surrender of Rome
are now to be embarked for their origi
nal destinations.
Germany.
BADEN.—The French goverment have
received a telegraph despatch, dated Ba
den on the afternoon of the 23d, annon
cing the surrender of the fortress of Ras
tady on that day. ' •
The Prince of Piussia had entered
Rastadt at the head of two regiments.
Rome.
Under the military rule of Gen. Oud
inott, order and general tranquility pre
vails at Rome. All public acts, are ren
dered in the name of the Pope. His
Holiness still continues at Gaeta, but
beyond the fact that he will remain
there until the accouchment of the Queen
of Naples, nothing seems known. It
is said he will afterwards proceed to
Rome in the full possession of both tem
poral and spiritual authority, and that
the priesthood around him having learn
ed nothing from him regarding their
past misfortunes, resolutely refuse all
concessions to the popular party.
It is not stated how the French army
is to be paid, but it is reported that Rus
sia has agreed to lend his Holiness 10,
000,000, without interest, the principal
to be paid at the rate of half a rnilios
annually.
The American Consul at Rome had
not resumed his functions since the out
rage committed on his place and family
by the French soldiers. The Consul
after strongly protesting against the in
dignity withdrew.
arabaldi was at Owieta on the 17th,
and levied a tribute of 2000 pounds on
the inhabitants, after which he took up
a position iii the neighborhood of Ficola.
The people were collecting in differ
ent' parts of the country and forming
bands of armed men, With the design of
joining Garibaldi.
Kossuth;s Appeal to the Hungarian
People,
The following is the substance of Kos-
Suth's last appeal to the Hungarian
peoble furnished by our Frankfort corre
spondent. It will give some idea of the
character the war is likely to assume :
Our Fiitherlanil is in danger ! Citi
zens ! to arms ! to arms!
If we thought ourselves able by ordi
nary means to save the country, ive
would not cry out it is in danger. If
we were at the head of a cowardly, child
ish nation, ready rather to fall than de
fend itself, We would not order the alarm
bells to ring though the whole land.—
But as we know that the people of our
country are a manly race, resolved to
defend themselves to the last against
Godless oppiession, we lay all unworthy
concealment of our position aside, and
call out openly, that the country is in
dariger! Because we know that the
people are able to defend themselires and
the country, we lay mien the danger in
all its magnitude, calling upon every
citizen in the name of God's country,
too look it in the face, and seize arms
too meet it.
We will neither flatter nor discourage,
but we &Clare openly that unless the
whole nation rise up to defend itself to
the.last drop of its blood, all the noble
blood already shed is in vain, and our
country will fall, the Russian knout then
ruling over an enSiakred people, on the
ground, where the ashes of our ances
tors repose.
We therefore ; here, in fulfilment of
our duty, communicate to all the inhab
itants of Hungary, that the Austrian
Emperor has let loose upon us the bar
barous hordes of Russia, that a Russian
army of 46,000 men has broken into our
country from Gallicia, and marches con
tinually forward, that Russian forces
have also entered Transylvania, against
whom our troops are struggling, and
that finally, although our fall would be
followed by the enslavement of the peo
ple in all Europe, we can expect no
foreign assistance, as the people that
sympathize with us are kept down by
their rulers, mid gaze only in dumb sil
ence on our 'stugglc.
We have nothing to rest our hopes
upon but a righteous God and our own
force. If we do not use our own rorce,
God will also forsake us.
Hungary's struggle is no longer our
struggle alone. It is the struggle of pop
ular freedom against tyranny. Our vic
tory is the victory of freedom, our fall is
the fall offreedoin. God hits' chosen us to
fret thenatioae from bodily servitude. In
the wake of our victory will follow liberty
to the Italians, Germans, Creches, Poles
Wallachians, Sclavonians Servians, and
Croatians. With our fall goes down
the star of freedom over all,
i'eaple of Hungary ! will you die
under the exterminating sword. of the
savage Russians 1 if not, defend your
selves Will you look on while the
Cossacks of the far north tread under
foot the bodies of your fathers, mothers,
wives and children if not, defend your
selves I
Will you see a pert of your fellow
sitizens sent to the wilds of Siberia,
made to serve in the wars of tyrants, or
bleed under the murderous knout 4 if
not, defend yourselves!
Will you behold your villages in
flames, and your harvest destroydon
Will you die of hunger on the land which
your sweat has made fertilel if not, then
defend yourselvs !
We, the freely elected government of
Hungary, call upon the people in the
name of God and the Country, to rise up
in arms, ordering, in virtue of our pow
ers and duty ; --a general crusade or the
people against the enemy, to be declared
from every pulpit, and from every town
house of the country, and made known
by the continual ringing of bells ; every
healthy man under 4.8 years of age to
take arms, whatever he can get hold of,
lan axe, scythe or hook, if no better to
be had ; notice to be given of the ap
proach of the enemy by the ringing of
bells, and that preparation be made to
resist or harrass him, but particularly to
destroy all forage and food, quitting and
setting fire even to the villages ;—the
priest to seize the cross, and lead the
people in the name of religion and lib
erty.
One great effort only is necessary,
and the country is forever saved.
We have indeed an army, which num
bers about 200,000 determined men, but
the struggle is no hangar one between
two hostile camps ; it is the struggle of
tyranny against freedom, of barbarism
against all free nations. Therefore
must nll the people seize arms and sup
port the army, that thus united the vic
tory of freedom for Europe may be won.
Fly then united with the army to arms,
every citizen of the land, and the victo
ry is sure!
