sea nacoe YORK. ‘The Important News from Hungary—The Effect of the Capture of Raab in Vienna, &c., $c. Important news has reached this city, to-day, from the seat of war in Hungary, to this effect: that either General Aulich has entered Raab, driving out the Austrian garrison, or that this same piece of service has been effected by General Klapka, the Hungarian commander of Comorn, a fortress some twenty miles distant frem Raab. Several effective eallies hive lately been made by this same Klapka. The effect of this news at Presburg and Vienna was astounding, and the Aus- trian party in both cities even feared that the Mag- yars would not stop short of their own very walls. By looking at the map, it will be seen that this affair must have taken place on the line of eommu- nication between Haynau and his lines of ope: rations, and, as @ vast quantity of provisions have been captured by the Magyars, either in Raab, or going down the Danube, at a point near this city, it will be clear that this is part of the commissanat of the Austrian General. Now, as the country which he has travelled over, on his way to his pre sent quarters, near Szegedin, is almost destitute of provisions ef any sort, and, moreover, ill supplied a water, should he be thus cut off by a force in Tear, without being able soon to strike a de- cisive , his condition will be bad indeed. Moreover, if defeated at Szegedin or Grosswar- dein, his chances of falling back upon Vienna will be eomewhat, but not much, better than those which eae French bad on returning from Moscow. ‘The landstrum will cut his army to pieces. Gen. Haynau has a heavy piece of work on his hands at js rhoment. ‘When the news of the capture of Raab reached Vienna, the standing garrison of that place was ordered out, and a telegraphic despatch sent off to Olmutz, for the garrison of the latier city to repair instantly to Vienna. This is significant of disas- trous intelligence. It is said the Vienniese soldiery have no stomach to march eastward, and as they paseed through the streets, they were heard to take leave of their friends, saying—* Fyrewell we are going to certain death.” One regiment of chagseurs wapeken of as having declared on the preceding night (the 4th), that they would not go to Hungary, until assured by the Emperor that they would not be sent into any dangerousaffray. This as, of coume, an exaggeration ; but there is no doubt that the courage ot the Austrian troops has been greatly cooled down by the late reverses of cheir comrades, ; A correspondent of the Kulner Zeitung, writes from. Vienna, with dates of the Sih, stating that groups of iers and officers had arrived in that city, and also nm Presburg, without huts, covered with dust, and running away from the direction of Raab. These had brought with them accounts that the Magyar force that had taken Raab con- sisted of 10,000 men, and their impression was that at was the garrison of Comorn With regard to the operations in Transylvania there is no certamty in the reports. One which we have seen states thut Perczrl was beaten by aa Austro-Russian army; but that Bem was after- wards sent te engage this force, and succeeded in almost destroying it; the result having been 10,000 men hors de combat on the field, and 8,009 prisoners. This rumor is from a letter by way of Coastanti- nople. You will find more full details of Huaga- rian news inthe papers.

The reactionary feeling 1n France has nearly reached its climax, and men talk openly of an em- pire. A coup d'etat to effect this hus been fore- told will take place on the 1th of the preseat month. The Prince- President has just finished a tour of conciliation, and, in all parts (so say the French papers) he has been met with enthasiasm. ‘The Assembly is now prorogued—the power ot the executive is at this moment almost ualimued, as he can, by the late law, declare the state of siege at any moment; and, by anothér beautiful bill jact -d, the press is no looger tree. ‘The French republic must fall.

It uiset in- erease and multiply. Leaders may be shot and benished—the press may be bridied and crushed, but all this can only for a moment retard what must ultimately come to puss—that the whole world will become republican. London is at this moment filled with refagees and revolutionists. “They ore here from all parts —all equally sufferers in the cause of republican erty.

The Cholera—Fhight of the Crtizens—Russell’s Croton File Works—The State Prison and its Management—The Number of Convicts—The Puwmishment—The Hudson River Ravlroad—-The Telegraph Wires—The Ex- Postmaster. The prevailing epidemic that broke out here a week ago to-day, has somewhat startled the peo- ple who reside on the lower dock, where it first made its appearance, and has since been confined to that portion of the village; and, as I said before, the only cause of its spreading so rapidly, is attri- buted to the using of the water from a well on the dock,»which was apparently stagnant, and of course impure. The authorities should take immediate measures to have this well closed up, but as yet they have done nothing to prevent the use of this water. Although I apprehend none of the citizens will use any more of it, yet strangers might drink it without knowing anything of its impurities. The population of Sing Sing is about 2,500, the greater portion of whom reside on the hill, where no cases have been known, The num- ber of inhabitants in that section of the village where all the cases and deaths have occurred, will not exceed 150; and the whole number of cases, up to this one is twenty-four, and fifteen of them have proved fatal, which still leaves nine cases, who are all getting better, and will probably recover in a few days. No further danger is now apprehended. ring two or three days after the first death by the cholera, the merchants and families residing upon the lower dock became so much alarmed, that they closed their stores, shut up their houses, and put for the country, to escape the dreadtul scourge that was sweeping off their peighhere all around them, Among the number who fled to the interior of this county, was Willett Acker, a grocer from the dock, and Mrs. Mangham, who were both seized with the epidemic soon after their departure from the vulage, and in a few hours they both ex- ired. Thus, they left their homes to escape the Rorsible disease that surrounded them, but, alas! they were soon hurried to their graves. For three days past, the steamboat landing has presented a dirmal appearance, and business, the whole leagth of the dock, has been entirely suspended. How- ever, it is expected that the cholary will all disap- pear by the middle of next week, When the mer- chants will resume their business again. : I yesterday visited one of the most extensive mapoufactories of its kind in the United States, which is known as the “Croton File Worl factory was established some three years since, by John Russell, E'sq., who is the sole owner, and is now considered one of our most enterprising men in the aauinctaring business. He is a min with a noble heart, and from the good feeling he exhibits toward his operatives, has won for him the esteem of all who know him. The various shops, machinery, ete., that are connected with these file works, are all situated on the bank of an immense stream of water, and within a few feet of the peu arch of. the Croton Aqueduct. I will now glance at the diflerent shops where millions of taper files are manufactured in the course of a year. The first one 18 where a file is commenced to be made, which 1s termed the “ forging shop;” this has eight torges, with four to six men ateach. The next is | stream, called Reedy river. called the “annealing shop,” where they are an- | nealed and taken to another one to be ground ; here there are eleven run of sione, all turned at the same time by steam power; thence they are sent tothe “cutting shops,” where they are first nicked on the edges, and then passed over to others to cut them on the sides; this part of the work is all done by females of different ages. They are then stamped by boys, and afterwards sent to the * hardening shop,” to be hardened after this they are tried as to the hardaess, or ra- ther to pass inspection from those employed to see if they wre all bard and good; then ser are finished off and cleaned, when they are ready to be done up in packages, labelled, and packed. After these various labors are at_an end, ed are shipped in large quantities to the city of New York, where Mr. Russell has an ageat, who attends to the sale of them. ‘The number employed at this extensive file cutting establishment is from one to two hundred males and temales, who have constant work the yearround.

There are a great many copies of the New York Herald teken daily by the employees of this establishment; and in passing through the various shops I nouced the Herald « number of times, lying near many of the workmen. : c In visiting the State Prison, I did not have the pleasure of seeing the agent or warden as the: were both absent, but 1 was politely shown all throvgh the male prison by the architect, Mr. Leat, (who has been connected with this institation for a y a quarter of a cere oe ‘The convicts are ntikably healthy, and the cells, halls, shops, We., are allin an excellent and clean condition, Lime is profusely used in every nook and corner of the prisons, both male and female ; white.

My last letter tothe Herald was dated at Charles- ston, the 3d inst. Since that time I have been journeying in the upper section et this State, and and spending my time among the planters of this region. I arrived in Greenville on the 18th. Without any exception, it is the prettiest southern village I have yet seen, and were it not forthe absence of the usual quantity of steeples, one could very easily fancy himself in a northern town of a similar size. It is the Court House town of the district, and of course has the usual Court House. As all these court houses are evidently built after the same model, I will describe one. It isa large two story building, built of brick, with two col- umnsin front. The ascent to the second story is by two circular stairs from the outside. Here is the court room. The first floor, or the basement, is oceupied by the offices of the sheriff, clerk, com- missioners, and other officers of the connty. The.ceneus of this district was taken a few days since, and it was found to contain a population of 13,552 white inhabitants, being an increase of over 966, since the last census. The town itself con- tains 1,400 inhabitants, It islaid out very prettily, the streets are named, and cross each other in city fashion, Almost every dwelling, and there are 300 in the place, has a flower garden attached to it. i I suppose there is no town in this State that increased more rapidly than Greenville. In 1815, itcontamed but three or four log houses, and the region belonged to Col. Alston. He sold it that year to a very enterprising man residing in the mountains of North Carolina, of the name of | McBee, who did not, however, consider it worth his while to move here until 1836. It began to in- crease rapidly in 1820, and has kept increasing up tothe present time. It has been a court house town since the revolution. Unul 1824 (when the present ceurt house was erected) the court held | their sessions in a place built on four spiles, with poles laid across, for the judges to walk and sit sit upon. For many years past, or since 1804, the low country peopie have crowded up to this ‘spot, which was a tai ible resort in the summer sea- s0n; Carriages wers rolling about the forests, as | though it was a city, and every log hut for miles round was put in requisition. There are now several well kept hotels. ‘The Mansion House, where J em residing, isa very large and commo- dious brick building, belonging to Col. Coleman, and is kept in good style by Mr. Durbeck, former: lya Charleston merchant. His house is the prin- cipal resort of the fashionables from the sea districts. e most of these up country towns, the water privileges are unsurpassed, and the popu- lation is turning its attention to manafactories, though here they have just commenced. The Saluda river runs within five miles ef this town, and through the town passes a_ considerable Tthas four falls with. m_a@ very short distance.

A few yards below isa second fall; here there is nothing but a sawmill and a forge, where there might be a large cotton factory; below them isa third fall, where is a factory and paper mill, belonging to Mr. McBee.

They will build a railroad from hence to Lawrenceville, which is thirty-three miles, at an expense which they estimate at $8,000 per mile. From Lawrenee- ville court house to Newborg is thirty miles more, which the people of thore places are about to an- derteke, and a railroad from Newbarg to Colam- bia is already under way, which will be completed by next July, so that there isa fair prospect that, in about three years, the people of Charleston may eat their brenkfast at home, and drink their tea the same evening in this village. Such a re- sult would muke a great place of Greenville, for it certainly possess a great many natural advan- tages, ond its only diead vantage is, that it is nearly an cutside town of the Soarh Uarolina world. ‘There are several other factiories in the district which I have not time to visit.
