Hungary. A correspondent writes to the Augsburg Allgemeine Zeitung on March 21 from Pest:

“It appears certain that Kaschau and a few other districts in northern Hungary have been re-occupied by the Hungarians. At least, yesterday’s post bound for Kaschau did not get as far as Gyöngyös and has returned here.”

Gyöngyös is in the rear of Schlick’s position at Erlau, and about eleven miles from Pest.
