How THEY PRESERVE ORDER IN AUSTRIA
The Vienna correspondent of the London News,
describes the following shocking affair as having
taken place Mt Saint Maria, near Gross War
diem, lately
at PEASANTS wedding, when the procession
Of the betrothed was moving towards the church,
the gendsrme approached the bride, and sum-
moned her Immediately to divest herself of the
red, white, and green ribbons which abe had in
her dress, according to the custom of the coun-
try girls, saying that these colors were revolu-
tiouary. The bridegroom objected, saying thai
after the ceremony the bride would comply with
the desire Of the gendarme, but that now they
could not keep the priest waiting at the altar
The gendsrme retired, the procession proceeded
TO, the church; but at The moment when IN,
bride was kneeling at the steps of the altar TO re
ceive the benediction, the gendarme rushed for
ward and cut her, ,resses and ribbons with scis
sors from her head. In Hungary II is consider
cd great insult to female TO cut her hair;
conveys notion Of infamy. Naturally an affra
took place; the gendarme was asaled by tn
bridegroom, other gendsrmes arrived in aid O
their fellow official, the people though withou
arms rushed upon them, and the result was tn
slaughter of seven men, three gendarnes an
