PRAYoR BEFORE BATTLE.-Before the
battle of Solnok, in March last, the Hun
garian General Georgey, after he had
laid his plans for meeting the Austrians,
rode up to regimen: of Hussars.
brothers" said he to them, "where
is your commander" Aveteran Sergeant
with silver white hairs, appeared before
him, (all the other officers having fallen
in previous skirmish.)
"Brother Hussar!' said the young Gen.
Georgey, "look at that hill covered with
trees. You will remark there the glitter.
ing bayonets of the Austrans, and their
awkward riders, and their cannons di-
rected against us. They will soon vomit
fire and balls. Brother. that hill must be
taken by your division. In this attack
many of you will fall; perhaps one-half;
perhaps more; perhaps only few OF you
will remain. But you are destined by
God to save your fatherland. You will
therefore do your duty. God be with
you" The Sergeant saluted his young
General, and turning himself to his COM
rades, he repeated what was commanded
him, and casting his eyes to heaven, he
uttered loudly the following prayer:-
"Creator, Father of mankind, Father of
the Hungarians; 1 pray now but for one
grace: not that Thou wilt assist us in our
task, but only that Thou wilt not assist
the Austrians. Look at us; and L solemn
ly promise, Thou wilt enjoy how the
Hussars do their duty"
Having finished this prayer, he gave
the first sign for the attack. The Hussars
put their saddles in order. He gave the
second sign; the swords were drawn from
the scabbards. The third, and in wild
fury the horses galloped into the midst OF
the laundering cannon and flying balls.
The Austrian yagers and artillerists could
not stand before their fierce attack, and
precipitated their retreat, pursued by the
hussars. The cannon at once became
silent, and the victory was decided Tor
the Hungarians.

Address by L.. Kossuth.


The following eloquent address to tn
nations OF Europe forms part of pro
clamation recently issued by L. Kcssuth:
The armies of the Hungarians hav,
already fought ont their quarrel with Au
stria. The liberated country need onl,
to be made to flourish. But the house
of Hapsbnrg Lorraine had once more pc
titioned the Russian despot for aid, ant
he broke into Hungary at the head o.
10000 Russian troops; through Cron.
s:adt, Lemberg and Vienna he broke into
our countryside country of the martyrs
Of liberty.
We do not throw down our arms. We
will fight the armies of the allied tyrants
of Europe. God is just--his power is
almighty; he hallows the battlefield for
the weak, and the strength of the mighty
and wicked is broken.
But we would speak loud and solemn
warning to the constitutional governments
and the nations of Europe:
Ye Governments. ye are the official
guardians of the liberty and the legiti-
mate interests not only of your own coun-
tries, but of all Europe. A tremendous
responsibility rests upon you. The pun.
ishment of every crime which you allow
to be committed against liberty and the
rights of man will come home to you and
the lands ye govern
Wake up, oh ye people. at the approach
of this enormous danger. The tyrants'
armies are banded together to tread under
foot, and to silence every free word
They have begun in Germany. in Italy,
and in this our land of Hungary!
Thou naughty English nation! Hast
thou forgotten that thou has decreed the
principle of nonintervention, that thou
now sufferest an Intervention directed
against constitutional liberty? Not only
iost thou not defend the holy cause of
constitutional liberty, but thou lendest
aid to the banner of tyranny by suffering
his coalition of tyrants The proud pen
non of the British mast is threatened with
disgrace. God will withdraw the bless
mgs he has lent it, if it prove untrue to
the cause to which it owes its fame.
Awake, oh ye people of Europe! On
Hungarian ground the battle for the free
dom of Europe is fighting. With this
country the free world will lose power
FIJI member. Iu this nation a true and
heroic champion will perish. For we
shall fight until we spill the last drop of
our blood, that our country may either
become a chosen sanctuary of freedom,
consecrated with our blood, or shall form
a damning monument to all eternity in
token of the manner in which tyrants can
league to destroy free people and free
nations, and of the shameful manner in
which free countries abandon one an
other.
(Signed,) L. kossUTH, Governor.

In the death of this aged person there
is a volume of history lost Living IN
great retirement, the relict of forgotten
age, few knew the stories she could tell
of the brave old days. Born on board of
British ship of the line in the Bay of
Biscay, Graded on the broad Atlantic, her
father having been killed while fighting
the battles of George the l., she was cast
al orphan on the shores of New York;
thence, carried to St. Augustine, her
youth was passed in the South. Here
she married and settled on the banks OF
the Alabama. On the outbreak OF the
war between France, Spain and England,
she, with other British settlers, were
made prisoners and taken to New Orleans.
After two years she was transferred to
the Spanards, and taken into the castle
of Vera Cruz, where she remained until
its capture by the British, in 1861. She
was then relieved and taken to New
York. During the first American war
she followed her husband through the
principal campaigns, and was at many OF
he hardest fought battles-at Monmouth,
Yorktown, White Plains, &c. At the
