THE WOUNDED AT CRACOW.

The following letter from an English lady at
Cracow appears in the Pima of this morning:—" It
seems hard to tax too severely the generosity of the
British public, and yet when was an appeal made to it
in vain? I feel convinced that, if any of your readers could
have witnessed the harrowing scenes which I and my Mater
saw yesterday, they would have emptied their purses to
alleviate in some degree the misery which made our hearts
bleed. There are four temporary hospitals in Cracow—one
in the ball-room is the hotel in which we are staying, and
three others in other parts of the town. Out of about 200
patients I onl► saw one man over 25 ; the rest boys of L'S
and upwards. Them youths are many of them from Poland,
and all of them far from their homes. They are dependent,
therefore, entirely on the charity of the townspeople, who
are already overwhelmed by the claims of their own
relatives and friends. There is scarcely a house in which
some member of the family is not either sick or
wounded, while hundreds of men, women, and children,
burnt out of Miechow, and their villages, have sought
refuge hare. The consequence is that every bole and
corner in the town is occupied, and everybody's puree
is constantly drained. No lees than 1,030 of Langiewicx's
followers have been obliged to leave Poland, and
arrived here yesterday and the day before in a deplorable
condition. Most of them, baring joined the camp without
soy provision for campaigning, have been brought in as
Austrian prisoners, foot-sore, starving, and nearly naked.
They have been engaged for the last two diva in camping
from Austrian durance, the authorities being rusty too
glad to be relieved of the trouble of providing for them.
Large purchases have been made of boots and clothing, and
everyone is anxious to contribute ; still the calls have re-
cently been so heavy—first for subscriptions to the move-
ment, and next for the relief of distress—that ocotributions
from England would be most thankfully received. It
must not be supposed that there is any repining or
begging. The young men in hospital are only yearning to
be well enough to return to the scenes of their late dis-
tress ; and, thongh the town wears an aspect of mourning,
sad the streets swarm with a popul►tion clothed in the
deepest black, the haggard, worn faces of old and young,
men and women, express only one sentiment—that of fierce
and determined resistance. The capture of Langiewics
has stimulated rather than dampedbhe ardour of the people.
and every serve is being strained to retrieve the effect of the
late Dictator's inocaceivable act. It the Austrian govern-
ment will only afford the facilities it gave on an earlier
stage of the movement, there can be no doubt of the ulti-
mate success of the revolution, so thorough is the de-
, moralisation of the Russian army ; but if it renders the
trunemiesion of arms and ammunition impossible, the prop
peels of the insurgents are gloomy enough. In the mean-
time, in the name of common humanity let even those who
ham no political sympathy with Poland help to relieve au
amount of suffering which, were the cause lees holy than it
IN would be aotitled to their compassion and consideration.
am, sir, yours faithfully, JANE H. Betiewrr.-116tel de
Saxe, Cracow, March 24."
