The Vienna journals contradict the rumors d
Gen. Bem's defeat by the Russians, and the
flight of his troops into Wallacia. Itappears or

himself under the protection of the Russians il
Wallaca. He was accompanied by three othe
Austrian Generals, and his troops were left t
the care of Gen. Halliami.

cross the frontier and return to Wallacia-thei
