VPENCER'S CHINESE LIQUID HAIR DYE.
I, 7 The thousands of individuals who for upwards of twenty
years have used this celebrated liquid, pronounce it to be the only
article extant which effectually changes, in a few minutes, red or
grey hair, whiskers, moustaches, &c., to a dark brown or black,
without trouble (by simply combing it through the hair), and pro-
duces by one application a pleasing and permanent change.
While other dyes deetroy the hair by their pernicious properties,
this liquid promotes its growth, nourishing the roots to the latest
period of life. Pe, sons who have been deceived by preparations
which have a horrible stench (dangerous to the head), troublesome
in their application, and unsatisfactory in their colour, will find
Spencer's Chinese Liquid Hair Dye a distinct article, agreeable in
every respect, and that " none but itself can be its parallel." Price
38. 6d., 65., and 108. per bottle.

The manifold advantages to the Heads of Families from the
possession of a medicine of known efficacy, that may he resorted to
with confidence, and used with success in cases of temporary sickness
occurring in families, more or less, every day, are so obvious to all,
that no question can be raised el Re importance to every householder
in the kingdom. From amoaq namerous testimonials, the following
is respectfully submitted :
" To Mr. Thomas Tryst, 229, Strand, London.
" No. 5, David-street, Regent-road, Manchester, March 12,1842.
" Sir,—l have much satisfstctien in communicating to you the re-
sult of my experience after repeated trials of Frampton's Pill of
Health ; and I feel it be' i ustice to state, that in the course of many
years' trial of variou, Aperient Medicines, I have never found results
at once so salutary and efficient in the relief of the system from
redundant bile, &c., &c., with so little inconvenience ; I am there-
fore warranted in declaring that they supply to me a means lons
wanting of being chic to recommend to families, schools, and espe-
cially mercantile mar, whether at the desk or on the road, a mist
valuable resource in an occasional medicine. And I shall take credit
to myself if, in giving this testimony, I am the means of making
Frampton's Els more generally known and appreciad.—l m,
Sir, re: peel( ally yours, " WILLIAM S teMITH."a
Tile siaprecedented sale of these Pills, arising from the earnest
recommendations of the many thousands who have derived benefit
from their use, render any lengthened continent unnecessary. They

known attendants, Bilious and Sick Heful•ache, Pain and Oppression
after meals, I addiness, Dizziness, Singing Noise in the Head and
Ears, Drowsiness, Heartburn, Loss of appetite, Wind, Spasms, &C.
Two or three doses will convince the afflicted of their salutary
effects. The stomach will speedily regain its strength; a healthy
action of the Liver, Bowels and Kidneys will rapidly take place ;
and instead of listlessness, heat, pains, and jaundiced appearance,

will be the result of taking this medicine, according to the directions
accompanying each Ziox.

HUNGARY.
The present is a period more interesting,. perhaps,
than any known in the whole flight of time. The events
which have taken place of late, and the revolutions
which have been effected throughout the Continent, are
the natural fruits of that miscalled Holy Alliance,
which, formed by the great and unexpected successes of
the coalesced powers, has rince 1815 weighed like a
nightmare upon Europe. We may safely assert that
the empire of darkness and of despotism has been
smitten with a stroke which will never be forgotten.
When we see whole kingdoms, after reposing. for centu-
ries on the lap of their rulers, start from their slumber,
the dignity of man rising up from depression, and kings
either thrust from, or tottering on, thrones which they
can scarcely call their own, who can remain indifferent,
or fail to turn his attention towards those nations and
their rulers which have undergone such extraordinary
changes since the memorable year 1848? Old founda-
tions have been broken up, new edifices are rearing.' and
constitutions are being octroyed in a day.• Institutions
which have been long held in veneration as the most
eublime refinements of human wisdom and policy,
which time has cemented and confirmed, which
power has supported, which eloquence has con-
spired to embellish and opulence to
enrich, are
falling with astounding rapidity to decay.
They are things that were. Their sun has set and no
more to be remembered—new prospects are opening on
every side of such amazing variety and extent as to
stretch farther than the most enlightened statesman or
the most cautious observer can reach. These thoughts
have been impressed on our minds, while studying with
the attention the subject merits, the peCuliar position of
ono of the most despotic of the great monarchies of Eu-
rope. We refer to Austria and the war now raging in
almost every part of her distracted empire. Hitherto
we have been so accustomed to regard Austria as one
single empire, like England or Holland, that we are apt
to forget she is composed of several distinct nations, em-
bracing a population of more than thirty-six millions of
people, and a territory stretching from the boundary of
Russia and the confines of the Papal States. Within
this immense extent there are included the inhabitants
of five distinct races, as alien to each other as the
Spaniard is to the Frenchman. There are the Germans
—the Italians—the Hungarians—the Sclavonians, and
the Wallachia's, without community of origin, of lan-
guage, of sentiments or of religion. The only bond
which has hitherto held them together is their
allegiance to one common Sovereign, who has
sine the year 1804 borne the title of Emperor
of Austria, a name rather curiously selected, by the way,
as being that of one of the smallest of the numerous
states over which be ruled. 0: these -states Hungary is
the chief one in point of extent of territory, of popula-
tion, of the warlike energy of its' inhabitants, and, above
all, as the only one possessing anything approaching to
the name of a constitution such as it is the pride and
boast of England to possess, and the attempted destruc-
tion of which by the ill-advised Emperor is the cause of
the present war.
The great importance of the struggle commenced be-
tween Hungary and Austria, and to which it may be
truly said that the eyes of. all Europe are anxiously
directed, must be our apology for directing the attention
of our readers at some length to the relations between
those two countries, though it will be our endeavour to
notice as briefly as possible the causes which have ulti-
mately compelled Hungary to draw the sword iu defence
of those rights, which every lover of constitutional free-
dom will desire that she and all other states in Europe
may be permitted to possess. We feel more than
usually anxious •to make the true state of the
case known to our readers, as it is an un-
doubted and lameutable fact, that in consequence
of the continued misrepresentations of the reactionary
journals, both at home and abroad, the origin and pro-
gress of the present war, and the objects for which the
Hungarians are contending, have been very generally
tnisuuderstood:not only iu England, but also in a great
part of Europe.
It is one of the common errors of the day to sup-
pose that Hungary is a mere province of the Austrian
Empire, and in rebellion against its Sovereign. Hun-
gary Is not and never was a province of Austria, but
has always been for - the last nine centuries both de jure
and de facto an independent kingdom. It is true that
for the last three centuries the , head of the house of
ilapsburg, by the marriage of Ferdinand, Emperor of
Germany, the brother of Charles V., with his cousin,
Anne, sister of Ludovie, King of Hungary and Bohe-
mia, has been the acknowledged Sovereign of those two
countries, but it is as King of llungary, not as Emperor
of Austria, that he has either right or jurisdiction in
that country. .The Hungarians, therefore, assert with
truth that they have taken up arms to repel a treacheros
aggression, on the part of the advisers of the Austrian
Crown, and to defend their Constitution as by law
established, just as our forefathers of glorious memory,
in a righteous cause and for a lawful object, appealed
to arms against the Stuart " Kings, Charles L- and
James 11.

With reference to the early history of Hungary, we
can learn but little. The oldest known inhabitants of
the country were the Pannoniaw. In the year 277 the
Huns established themselves in, and ghve their namelto,
the country. Their power was greatly increased under
the celebrated Attila, but was overthrown in 489 by the
Goths and Gepidre. These yielded in the sixth century
to the Lepidre, who in their turn were overthrown by the
Avari. In the ninth century the Magyars, the present
dominant race, originally a people from Central Asia, pe-
netrated into the country, and in the course of ten years
entirely subdued it. Stephen, the great grandson of
Arpad, the conqueror of Hungary, exchanged his title
of Duke for that of King, A.D. 1000, and added Tran-
sylvania to his kingdom. The Magyars having been
gradually converted to Christianity, becameahe most im-
portant bulwark of Europe against the then powerful and
encroaching Mussuiman power; and in the year 1526
Ludovic, King of Hungary, fell at the head of
his countrymen, while contending manfully against
the Turkish host at the disastrous battle
of Mohacs. Down to the year 1687 the
throne had been elective, though when any occupant left
a male descendant the latter had been invariably chosen,
but at that period the Hungarian Parliament or Diet
decreed that hauceforth the throne should be hereditary
in the male
.heirs of the reigning; house of Hapsburg,
and in 1723 It further extended "'the right of succession
to the female line, in accordance with the Pragmatic
Sanction of Charles V., in order that the union of the
two Crowns of Austria and Hungary might be continued
on the same head.. A very similar case to this occurred
in the union of

de
jure and de facto independent
of each other, and which, after being united from the
time of George I. to that of William IV., were separated
when her present Majesty succeeded to the throne, be•
cause the former was settled upon heirs male or female,
the latter on heirs male alone. During the war which
Frederick King of Prussia waged against Maria
Therese, Empress-Queen of Austria and Hungary,
she in her distress threw herself upon the support
of her bravo Hungarian subjects, and the bloody war
that followed, in which they upheld their ancient re-
nown, proved that the celebrated expression with which
they saluted their Sovereign's demand for aid, " Mori-
amur pro Rage Nostro Maria Theresa," had not been
uttered in vain. And it is well worthy of remark, that
this same celebrated Sovereign, at her coronation in
1740, after readily taking the old oath to the Constitu-
tion, established in 1222, added, " If I or any of my
sue
cessors at any time should'attempt to infringe your pri-
vileges, you and your posterity are permitted,. by virtue
of this promise, to defend yourselves, without being
liable to be treated as rebels." This may in a measure
explain the cause of the present war, as it more than
justifies the part which the Hungarians are now taking
against the Austrian empire. Nobly also did Hungary
support Austria in her frequent contests with Repub-
lican and Imperial France, and cheerfully did she shed
the blood or the best and bravest of her sons in defence
of her Sovereign against the most formidable foo that
Eurcpe had ever witnessed; and so strongly attached
were the Hungarians to Austria, that all Napoleon's
endeavours to detach the former from the latter
during the disastrous campaign of 1809 were
unavailing, and their devotion to their Sovereign's per-
son was never more conspicuous than when he had lost
the power to reward it. It is a melancholy thought to
reflect on the ingratitude of kings, but never was it more
fully exemplified than in the conduct of the Emperor of
Austria towards Hungary; for, though during the terrible
struggle from 1792 to 1814, the Parliament was fre-
quently summoned, and the most complimentary mes-
sages were sent to it by the Emperor, his conduct even
then wrung from one of the members this bitter speech,
which faithfully reflected the sentiments of the nation:—
It is plain that the King calls us together only when
he wants soldiers and supplies; for he knows that after
all we have too much honour to allow the majesty of,
the King of Hungary to be insulted by his enemies; '
an. though her hopes had been frequently disappointed,
she had never failed to offer her whole power and re-
sources for the defence of the empire, nor had she ever
sought in the defeat and misfortunes of Austria an op-
portunity to extort from her Sovereign the
justice he had denied to her prayers. Yet
when the hour for repayment arrived those promises,
on the faith of which Hungary had so freely lavished
her blood and her treasures in defence of Austria and the
aiEmperor,iance

for so many years had flattered the hopes of Hungary,
when it stood in need of her assistance, now, that the
hour of danger had passed, baldly resolved to govern
that kingdom without the aid of its Parliament. In vain
did the country unanimously petition the Emperor to
summon the Diet, which he was bound by the laws he
had sworn to observe to call every three years. At
length, after ten years of undignified resistance on the
part of the Sovereign, he gave way, and in 1825 the
Diet was again summoned. An extract from the ad-
dress which the Diet presented to the Emperor, some-
thing like the celebrated remonstrance of our Long Par-
liament, will give us some idea of their grievances:—
" We entreat your Majesty henceforth not to listen to
evil counsels; to despise anonymous denunciations; not
to exact any impost or any levy
.of soldiers without the
concurrence of the Diet; to reinstate the citixms dis.
graced for having legally resisted the Royal Commis-
sioners; and regularly to cony e the states with whom
you share the sovereign power." To these just and mode-
rate demands the Emperor wisely consented, and things

for a time went on more peaceably than heretofore,
though great reforms were necessary, as much so as in
France previous to the revolution of 1798; for the con-
dition the chief part of the population was such, that
it was indispensable to her, with tranquility and pres-
nerity, that Hungary should advance with the times.
The nobles, like tee old noblesse of France, held On it
lands by military tenure, and bore no portion of the bur-
dens during peace. It was left to the peasant, to whom
promises of redress and amelioration of condition had
been held out as early as 1790, but which had never been
fulfilled, to bear the whole weight of taxation ; and
though, in the year 1635, salutary measures were passed
greatly improving the position of the oppressed c:asses,
yet, down to 1848, the elective franchise was withheld
from every man who was born a peasant, whatever might
be his stake in the country. Ho was not equal with the
noble in the eyes of the law. "He paid the whole
charges," to use the language of an eloquent writer,
" for the administration
,of justice, which he could
rarely obtain ; for the municipal government, in the
election of which he had no vote; for the maintenance
of public buildings, from many of which he was excluded;
and by much the greater part of the expenses of the
army, in which he was forced to serve without a hope
of promotion. He alone made and repaired the roads
and bridges, and be alone paid tolls on passing them. On
him alone were soldiers quartered, and he had to furnish
them, not only with lodgings in the midst of his family,
but with fuel, cooking, stable room and fodder at about
one halfpenny a day, ofter4anot paid; and to sell his hay
to the Government fur thuse of the troops at a fixed
price, not equil to one-fotirth of its value in the market.
At the same time a noble who tilled the ground like the
peasant—who was perhaps not more intelligent, not more
industr:ous—had an hereditary privilege of exemption
from all these burdens, and enjoyed a share in the go-
vernment of the country."
The Diet, which met at the close of the year 1847, had
scarcely entered upon business when the storm of revo-
lution burst upon the head of astonished Europe. The
Paris Revolution of 1848 was the precursor of
insurrection at Milan, Venice, Naples, Palermo, Vh nna,
Berlin, Prague, Cracow, &e., in the midst of which
constitutional Hungary remained a calm in the amidst
of the troubled seas. The national, or, as we should say
in England, the reform, party succeeded in effecting a
greater change in the constitution than was effected by
our memorable Bill of 1832, and in a most peaceable
manner, and by the unanimous votes of both houses of
the Diet ; by which it was decreed-Ist. Equality of
civil rights and public burdens amongst all classes and
races in Hungary and its provinces. 2d. Perfect tole-
ration of every form of religious worship. 31. The
transference to the peasants of nearly half the cultivated
lands of the kingdom, hitherto hell by urbarial tenure,
by which means more than 500,000 peasant families re-
ceived from thirty to sixty acres of land each. 4th. The
elective franchise was extended to every person whose
annual iiscome amounted to 101., or possessed of capital
ansouliting to 301. ; to every man who had received a
university diploma, and to every attizan employing an
apprentice. An Act for the union of Hungary and Tran-
sylvania was passed by the Diets of both countries.
The whole of these Acts received the Royal assent, and
in April of last year the Emperor personally confirmed
them in the midst of the Diet assembled at Presburg. A
responsible Hungarian Ministry was formed, with the
full concurrence of the Emperor, and the Palatine, an
office held by the Archduke Stephen, and very similar
to that of our Lard-Lieutenant of Ireland. These con-
cessions to the spirit of modern times, were received
with the utmost delight and satisfaction by the whole of
Hungary cod the provinces. But, alas! no sooner were
they granted than a reactionary movement commenced,
and just as it was in our country in the time of Charles
1., that which was extracted from an unwilling Sove-
reign was endeavoured to be set aside by the most
shameful chicanery and the basest turpitude. A party
soon appeared at the Austrian Court opposed to all
concessions, seeing in the constitutional freedom of Hun-
gary the greatest hindrance to the old form of tyrannical
government, and they, alas! soon succeeded in finding
in Croatia, one of the dependencies of Hungary', a party
who had been endeavouring to effect a Sclavonic move-
ment in favour of Illyrian nationality, and opposed
therefore to Magyar ascendancy. A leader, prepared
to go all lengths for the subversion of the new-born
freedom of Hungary, was found in Baron Joseph Jel-
lachich, Colonel of one of the Croat Regiments, who
was named Ban or Lord of the whole province of
Croatia without consulting the Hungarian Alinistry,
whose counter-signature was necessary to legalise the
nomination. Though this was a breach of faith, highly
discreditable to the Austrian Cabinet, the Hungarian
Ministry accepted his nomination, and invited Jellachich
to put himself immediately into communication with
them. His first ant was to declare that the Croat revolt
was sanctioned by the Emperor. This was denied by
him in an autograph letter, dated May, 1848, and sum-
moning the Ban to Innspruck to give an account of his
conduct. The following month he was suspended from
all his functions, both civil and military ; but he held
his position, declaring that the real wishes and in-
structions of his Sovereign were opposed to his public
acts ; and if this be true, which succeeding
events appear to bear out, it only proves the
base hypocrisy of the Austrian Cabinet. The revolt of
the Croatians under Jellachich continued in the name of
the Emperor, when the newly-reformed Parliament was
about to meet. The Hungarian Ministry, therefore,
naturally entreated the Emperor to open it in person, in
order by his presence to prove the falsehood of the Ban's
assertions. This was declined. The new Parliament
met for the first time at Pesth, in June, 1848, returned
by the new suffrage, when, greatly to the credit of the
people, it was discovered that nearly all the old Members
of the Diet, formerly elected by the, nobles, who had
succeeded in carrying these beneficial reforms, had been
again returned, so quietly had the people exercised their
newly-acquired privileges. The Archduke Palatine, in
his opening speech to the Diet, alluded to the revolt in
Croatia, and to the false reports that it was encouraged
by the Emperor, assuring them that his Majesty was
resolved to protect the unity and the inviolability of the
royal Crown of Hungary against all attacks—spoke of
the audacity of those who dared to pretend that
illegal acts were in accordance with the wishes
of the Sovereign—and finally gave the sanction
of the Emperor to the incorporation of Transyl-
vania with Hungary, as the union of the two
countries would give a firm support to the throne and
to constitutional freedom. The Diet, upon these grati•
fying assurances, immediately sent a deputation to the
Emperor, to entreat him to repair to the capital, in order
that his presence there might disabuse the minds of the
revolted Croats. This was again refused. The revolt
continued to gain ground, when at length the long-con-
tinued and disgraceful deception of the Austrian Cabi-
net was made manifest by a message which the Hun-
garian Ministry received from them, stating that it
was resolved to put an end to the neutrality hitherto
observed, and to support openly the rebellion of the
Croats. The Hungarians were now convinced that
their constitution must be derended by force of arms
against the Jesuitical Austrian Cabinet. A body of 200,000
men was decreed, and an issue of bank notes to cover
all deficiencies. Another deputation was sent to the
Emperor, to ask his assent to the law already passed—
to the recal of the Hungarian troops serving in Italy,
and to entreat him to come to Pesth to restore order.
An evasive answer was all that the deputation obtained.
Shortly after their return to Pesth, a communication
was sent from the Austrian Cabinet to the Hungarian
Ministry, requesting the presence of some of their mem-
bers to concert measures for insuring the consolidation of
the Government, and to open negotiations with the
Croats fur the reconciliation of their differences, de-
claring at the same time that the Ban Jellachich, who
only three months previously had been denounced by the
Austrian Government as a traitor, should take a part in
the conference, and that all preparations for war should
cease on both sides. At the same time it was declared
by the Austrian Cabinet that the concessions, by which j
Hungary was to enjoy the benefit of a responsible Mi-
nistry
and a reformed Parliament, were detrimental to
the interests of Austria, and were therefore declared to
be illegal and of no effect; that although they had re-
ceived the Emperor's assent in the month of April, and
had been again formally recognised at the opening of the
Diet in June, the reactionary Ministry annaunced that
they were no longer to be considered binding, in
order that a central power for the government of the
Austrian empire—consisting, as we have already seen, of
five distinct races—might be established at Vienna.
Never in the whole history of nations have we ever met
with a more discreditable breach of public faith—dis-
graceful alike to the Emperor and his Cabinet, who,
hurried away by their anxiety to accomplish their ob-
ject, at the risk of honour and truth, were too blind to
perceive the indelible stain they were affixing to the cha-
racter of the empire, and the indignation they were
bringing down on their heads from an exasperated and
deluded nation of new-born freemen.
The degraded Austrian Cabinet did not pause in their
headlong course of folly. The decree suspending the
Ban Jellachich from all his dignities was recalled, and
ho was ordered to invade Hungary with an army of
Croats and Austrians. His course was at first, in con-
sequence of the Hungarians beine, totally unprepared,
unopposed, and he marched a considerable way into the
interior of the kingdom without firing a shot, and, like
a reckless traitor to his country, allowed his troops to
plunder the people and devastate the country w_heerever
they went. The Archduke the Palatine took th

the helm of the State

with the consent and sanction of the Hungarian Parlia

was immediately formed to assist him. This Ministry
the Austrian Cabinet at first neither acknowledged nor
rejected, but towards the end of September General
Lemberg, an Austrian general, was appointed by the Em-
peror to the command of all the troops, beep Austria-'
Hungarian, in the kingdom, d ordered posi-
tively to close the Diet. An Act of Parliament was
imroediately'passed declaring General Lamberg a traitor,
and refusiag.to seknowlodge him. oacaoral Lemberg

arrived at the capital at a most unfortunate moment,
when the agitation was at its height, and the peasants
were pouring into the town by thousands to defend it
against Jellachich, who was on the point of attacking.
General Lemberg, in his carriage, had reached as far
as the beautiful suspension-bridge which connects the
two towns Buds and Pesth, when he was surrounded by
an immense crowd, brandishing se y then and muskets,
and pouring down imprecations on h s head. In vain
did he appeal to theta, holding the Emperor's lever of
appointment above his head; his cries were disregarded,
and in an unfortunate m: silent he was cut down—a
deed much to be deplored, but the fault, be
it remembered, more of the Austrian Cabinet
for forcing a declared outlaw upon the Hunga-
rians, than of the excited people, driven to a pitch
of madness by the base hypocritical conduct of the Em-
peror and the reactionary ia-ty. The Hunearian Diet
acted nobly at this dreadful emergency. Though the
only regiment in the capital on which they could depend
bore the very name of the murdered General, they were
able to restrain any acts of violence on the part of the
soldiers, and ordered criminal proceedings aga:.ns.t, the
authors of the outrage. The Premier, Count Bathyani,
finding his Ministry, as we have before stated, unacknow•
ledged, resigned, and his pest was taken by that remark-
able man Koseuth, a genuine nobleman and leader of
the constitutional and patriotic party, which lead he has
ever since retained, holding at this moment the offiee of
Governor of the Kingdom by the unanimous suffrages of
the Hungarian Diet. The next insult of the feeble and
vacillating Austrian Cabinet was to endeavour to thrust
the rebel and traiior Jellachich upon the Hungarians as
Commander-in-Chief, with orders to dissolve the Diet,
and to declare the whole country in a state of siege.
Thus was Jellachich publicly proclaimed by the deceit-
ful Cabinet Dictator of Hungary, though he had been
by the same party but a few months previously ktlS-
rnded from his offices on account of his heading the
Croat revolt against the Hungarians. Thus the hypo-
crisy of the Emperor and his advisers has been clearly
manifested, and the Hungarians had nothing lett but
to appeal to the sword. Had the Austrian Govern-
ment, or rather the secret back stairs influence—the
Camarilla—the real government—the imperium in
imperio —been honest, end determined to carry out the
new Constitution according to the Emperor's word and
promises, the differences between Austria and Hungary
might easily have been adjusted, and the present war
would not have arisen, which will probably ere long set
all Europe in flames. The die, however, was cart,
the gauntlet was thrown down by Austria, and Hungary
manfully accepted the challenge. The people rose en
masse—never was Hungary more united—divisions of
race and religion were no more remembered—the aristo-
cracy and the people, the Protestants and Roman Ca-
tholics, rose as one man to repel the unjust aggressions
of the faithless Austrian Cabinet. Jsliachich was very
quickly repulsed from Pesth, and ho fled with his broken
troops to assist Prince Windischgratz in besieging
Vienna. With the account of that siege we have at
present nothing to do. Suffice it to say, after the en-
trance of Windischgratz and Jellachich into that capi-
tal they had leisure to turn their united forces against
Hungary.
Very shortly after this the Emperor Ferdinand, as
must be well known to our readers, abdicated his
throne, and resigned his crown in favour of his
nephew, the present Emperor Francis Joseph,
a boy of nineteen years of age, and second in
order of succession. A splendid opportunity now
offered itself for recovering Hungary, but it was allowed
to slip by, and time can never be recalled. Had Count
Stadion, the Prime Minister of Austria, advised the new
Emperor to stand to and defend the new Constitution of
Hungary, as his uncle, the late Emperor, had promised,
ilungary might still have remained a part of his empire;
hut instead of this, Count Stedion fancied he could ac-
complish something far more wonderful by oc!roying a
constitution for the whole empire, by which, in spite of
the Earnest longing after rationalities, five distinct races
have to receive laws from a new Assembly at Vienna.
A mad attempt; and failure, as might be expected, was
the result. If we may be permitted to make a com-
parison, we should say it would have been just as flagrant
a case of dishonesty, if our late King William IV., :after
passing the Reform Bill, when the crowns of Eng-
land and Hanover were united on one head, had
made a constitution of his own will, suspending the
old one in the country which had been the pride of
the people for centuries, and ordering a new Par-
liament to meet in Hanover to give laws for that
country and the whole of the United Kingdom together.
V.'indischgratz and Jellachich, after the siege of Vienna,
marched for Pesth, into which they succeeded in ob
.wining an entrance without much difficulty, as it was
,bought advisable, until the Hungarian forces were

bettor prepared, to retreat before the Austrians
Kossuth, with the Hungarian Parliament, retired be
yond the river Feiss to Debretzhi, a town about 120
English miles east of Beath, where ho succeeded, during
last winter, in performing such wonders in calling an
army into existence, which has already excited the admi-
ration of Europe,in restoring the finances and conducting
the administration of the v. hole kingdom under the se-
vere pressure of external and internal war. A great
portion of the country fell into the hands of Win-
dischgratz and Jellachich, the Hungarians retiring be-
fore them as they advanced, who put the whole of
what they possessed under martial law. This was
during last winter, but, although it was continually
reported that Hungary was at the feet of
W indischgratz, that Kossuth was a fugitive
trying to escape in disguise from the country,
that the Parliament had fallen to pieces, it appeared
that the Austrians did not find the conquest of Hungary
quite so easy a matter. It was pretended that the seve-
rity of the winter prevented the Commander• in-Chief
from doing more. This excuse only lasted for a time,
and as the spring advanced the tide began to turn with a
vengeance against the Austrians. A magnificent army
had been gradually forming during the winter by the
untiring exertions of Kossuth and his Ministers, under
the guidance cf skilful leaders, which, by a succession of
brilliant and rapid feats, regained the whole of the coun-
try, allowing the Austrians to retain possession of only
one single town—the old capital of Presburg—a city
containing between 30,000 and 40,000 inhabitants. The
last great victory on the part of the Hurgarians was the
taking of Buda, a large city lying opposite to Pesth, the
present capital. It was a most brilliant fest of arms, and
we do not recollect anything which approaches nearer to
the celebrated saying of Caesar, " Veni vidi, vici," than
the dispatch of the General, announcing the fall of
Buda. Three words were sufficient, " Hurrah ! Buda-
Georgey !" It was worthy of Rome in her best days,
and the letter of acknowledgment of the good news was
in a similar spirit.—" The thanks of Hungary to Field-
marshal Georgey." Windischgratz was recalled from
the command-in chief of the Austrien forces. It was
transferred to BaronWelden, but he having been equally
unfortunate, gave up the command to Marshal Hayncau,
who, if report speaks true, has signalised his accession to
office by ordering a rich and beautiful Hungarian lady,
Madame Von IRlvarnolty, of Pesth, to tle brutally
flogged for having held communication with her brave
couutrymen, who were fighting in defence of their li-
berties and constitutional rights.
It appears by a report of Mazaros, the late
Hungarian Minister of War, that a numerous and
magnificent army has been raised, whose victo-
ries we have not time nor space to record, con-
sisting of 396,000 infantry, 64,000 cavalry, 40,000
artillery, and 50,000 fresh levies, making altoge-
ther a total of 550,000 men of all arms. It is divided
into cloven corps d'arrcee, the most illustrious of the
captains of which are Bem and Dembinski, Poles by
birth, and Georgey, whom we have before mentioned,
and we are glad to observe among the number General
Guyon, an Irishman. It is a common mistake, however,
to think there are many Poles fighting iu their ranks.
We do not believe in the magnificent host before enu-
merated there are above 5,000. And if the Hungarian
army be not overstated, though the Emperor of Russia
with his hordes of Cossacks has come to the aid of the
deceitful, degraded, and defeated Austrian Cabinet, we
do not despair. We hope both England and France will
boldly forbid their iniquitous interference on the part of
the Russian tyrant to prevent that which he must so
abhor, viz., the spread of constitutional freedom; and wt
firmly believe and trust, while expressing our sincere
admiration and sympathy for the brave Hungarians, that
so disgraceful the rule of Austria over Hungary, to her-
self, has departed fur ever.
