The Wandeter of Vienna says, in a letter it pub-
lishes from Lemberg under date the 23rd March :

Yesterday the Mimes ZabieLoki were sentenced to one
month's imprisonment for collecting money," and to-day
Met Konamowska sod Mrs. Btadnikiawire ham hem set-
tamed aim to one month'. imprisoonient. The latter has
an infant at the breast, who will probably share in her im-
prisonment. Her only crime was that she had a weapon in
her pomestion. A third woman, whose name I forget, wee
to-day brought up for trial. Yesterday Mrs. kdapue,
the wife of an insurance employi, was arrested and brought
up for trial . . . . . . . . Your correspoodoot u
right in stating that prisoners in this country have been
given up to Russia. J, too, did not believe the
report, but to-day I ascertained two unmistakeable
facts. A traveller who arrived here yesterday saw on the
Plogow road five fugitives from Volhynia and Podolia, ac.
companied by a strong military escort, who informed him
that they were being taken to Brody to be given up to the
Russians. The emend incidest is as follows : Fim days
ago three foreigners from Podolia pprreeswenatd themselves
before the district authorities in Boreavow (district of
esortkow), stalls, that they had just crossed the frontier
to seek refuge from certain exile to Siberia, and requesting
permission to remain. The chief of the district reported
this to the authorities, who by telegram ordered hies to
"regard theme persons as having reported themselves after
the expiratioe of the period of 48 hours. sod immediately
to mod them back to the Russian authorities o the trea-
tise." These three unfortunate people are named Polog,
Orxmot, and Goecki, which are probably assumed names."
