HUNGARY.-Hurgary, at this moment, is attracting
the attention of the whole world. Her successes and
the business of her cause, secure her universal SYM
pathy. Her position Is not generally understood.
She has never been a province of Austria, but always
an independent kingdom. Her relation 10 Austria
began by a union of crowns through marriage. The
Emperor of Austria became, by virtue of a Hungari-
an bride, King of Hungary. In the same manner
Austria allied herself TO Bohemia. But Hungary re-
tanned her Diet, her ministry, and her constitution in
violate. She stands whole now, as she stood eight
hundred years ago. The relative and ally of Austria,
she has proved her devotion to the empire by bound
less sacrifices. Still she has resisted every attempt
to destroy her constitution, or to merge her in the
empire. She would not be taxed nor levied upon for
soldiers, without the consent of her Diet, n body elect
i've, and assembling every three years. What IS now
called her Instruction., is but a struggle TO retain her
constitution and nationality, which Austria, sworn TO
respect, has sought to destroy, that Hungary might
be known only as n part of Austria.
The population of Hungary is 5000, 900, or one
third of what has been called the Austrian Empire.
Crotia is properly a province of Hungary, though the
Croats have been set upon the Hungarians by Austria,
and defeated as they deserved. The Hungarians are
brave, generous, proud, and quite as intelligent as
the Austrians. They have a noble country, highly
cultivated and well governed. They are the finest
soldiers in Europe. Kossuth, who has been elected
first President of Hungary, and who is the leader of
her armies, is of the middle classes, and the most elo-
quent man in the nation. Georgy is little more than
n Hungarian boy in years, though old in genius and
valor. BEN and Dembinski are Poles, the former a
noble, and one of the best military leaders in the
world. Hungary can bring to the field between 2O0.-
600 and 300 600 soldiers, of whom Sc, 0O0 are mount
ed. Her chances of ultimate triumph are great.
ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE.-On Tuesday evening
last, Mr.. Robb, a student in the State University,
from indianapolis, and a widower, and Miss Eliza
Williams Of this place, were married. by Rev. Levi
Hughes. The affair, as we understand il, occurred in
this wise: Mr.. Robb had for some time past been pay
ing his addresses to Miss Eliza; but his attentions
TO the young lady became offensive, from some cause,
we know not what, to the mother and friends of the
young lady, and she being under age, the matter was
postponed for a time.
Some few days ago Miss Eliza became of age, and
she determined to marry the man Of her choice. And
so without consulting her friends upon the subject,
she started TO 60 to a singing school in town on Tues
day evening last; but the young gentleman who was
taking her could get her no further than the Tavern,
where the Bridegroom and Parson were waiting for
her; and where MIR. r. and Miss w. were Immediate
ly Joined together in the bands of matrimony, and
proceeded to the singing, where no one but themselves
and perhaps Two or three others, knew they were
"husband and wife," May they enjoy great peace
and happiness through life !-BbOmingtOn Tribune.
