The prospects of trade generally ' wear rather an improving appearance, and the indications are that business will continue active. The accounts from the iiuumiuubuiiii^ uinvi iuia mu nuuaiauLui^, and a fair business is doing in Cotton and < woollen goods. ? POLITICAL. | Accounts from Vienna admit that Jcl- ( lachich has been completely defeated by ( Rem, who stormed his encampment at the head of 50,000 men, after four days hard fighting. The Imperialists have raised the siege of Pctsh. Marian has been evacuated, A bullotin lifts been |s!>\ic4 by the Austrian government, announcing that the Hungarian army, on the 15th, marched < upon Wartzcn, and were repulsed by the Rusr.ians, who fell back-as the enemy advanced. The next day they attacked Georgy, who occupied a strong position I before Wartzcn, with 4-1,000 men, and ! 120 pieces of artillery. The cannonading ' on both Bides was tremendou3, but the ] Hungarians remained masters of the field. I On the 16th, the main body of the Rus- < sian army was brought up. Un the 17 th < they attacked Wartzcn, and notwithstand- . ing the desperate resistance of the Hun- < garians, they were compelled to evacuate < tho town, with the loss of two standards, i some pieces of cannon, and 500 prisoners. 1 A largo and enthusiastic meeting was held in London, to express the public ' sympathy with Hungary, and to request < the English ministry to recognize the i Hungarian government. Mar.y members i of the Quaker Peace Socicty participated in the proceedings. When tne speakers proposed to aid Hungary by taking up arms, the meeting rose as one man, and gave a warlike yell of approbation. The petition was adopted by the meeting, and ...i u 1.1 ?w.J.... vrrr^u iwiwic i ai imim-iii, piuuu^ed an interesting debate on Hungarian affairs. The Sardinians arc delaying the treaty of pence with Austria, with the supposed object of aiding Hungary by keeping the Austrian troops in Lombardy. The Austrian commander had demanded a peremptory treaty, within four days. The 8ardin:an King appealed to the French President to settle the difficulties. Venice still holds out gnllantly against fearful odds. Berious disturbances exist among the majority of the members of t^? French National Asftornbly. The legitimist" have determined to withdraw from the ranks of the Bonapirtistu, nnd form a separate party. Suppositions arc entertained thatian extensively organized legitimist conspiracy is in existence. It is announced that the troops who hitd embarked after Rome surrendered, have re-embarked for their original destinations. Rome is tranquil under Oudinot's mini istry. A11 public acts ai c ordere I in the Pope's name, he remaining at Gaetn until the accouchment of the Queen of Na pies, when ho will repair to Rome to remime temporal and spiritual authority. Nothing is snid a* to how the French nr jny H to bo paid, but it, is reported that Hussia has agreed to lend his Holiness 10,000,000 florins, without interest-principal to l>e paid half million annuel ^ The American Consul has not yet reKumed his authority since the attack on . his place by the French soldier.-. He withdrew after protesting against the inI dignity. Garibaldi, on the 17th, levied a tribute of 2000 pounds on the inhabitants, after which he took up a position in the neighborhood. The people were collecting in different parts of the country, nnd forming armed bands, intending to join Garibaldi. v..... r? a ? ? ~ iian-viikriAiv!), ;vujj. U V p. 111. The news by the Br.
