Vienna news to the 7th, though meagre, confirms the statement
of Bern's successes. He entered Cronstadt on the 20th March, the Russian and Austrian troops retiring into Wallachia. It is stated that the Turkish au- thorities disarmed the Austrians.
The Allgemeine Zeilung states that M. Kossuth has dissolved the Hun- garian Parliament at Debreczin, and issued writs for the election of another Parliament, to meet at Pesth on the 24th instant.
Losoncz, a city in the North of Hungary, was lately occupied by the Austrians: on the retirement of the Austrian troops, the inhabitants took the Imperial colours from the steeple of their cathedral, lashed them to a bench in the market-place' and awarded to them the Austrian punish- ment of two dozen stripes. On receiving information of this outrage, the Imperial authorities at Pesth condemned the guilty city to a fine of 25,000 florins —something like a hundred pounds for every blow; and a strong detachment of horse and foot were sent off to Losoncz to enforce the payment of that sum. The citizens obtained relief from the Magyar army, and placed a garrison of Honveds in ambush in the church and mar- ket buildings: the Imperial troops arrived on the evening of the 28th ultimo, and marched to the market-place; where they proceeded to pile arms, in order to be billeted upon the citizens. But, to their greatest dis- may, they found themselves surrounded, and their arms seized by the Honveds arid Hussars. Two companies of Austrian foot became prisoners to the Magyars; but part of the Imperial cavalry succeeded in making its escape from the town.
