Punishment of Mad. Maderspach.

Among the other victims of the Austrian Gov
ernment there lives in Pesth, the lady who was
scourged by Haynau's soldiers-Madame Nader
speech. have met several who have seen her,
and the account they give of the affair is as fol-
lows, and, suppose, is substantially y correct
She was a lady of fortune and rank. residing
in Shebenburgen, the south eastern part Of Hun
gary. Her husband was an officer in the Hun
garian army, and she herself, naturally sympa-
thised with his party, and it is said, frequently
entertained Bem with the oft ers under him,
in very hospltabe manner. This had exas-
perated the Austrians and when, at length,
they occupied that part of Hungary, they were
quite ready for any seventies against her.
Unfortunately for her, her tenantry made some
celebration at the time, and burned-she claimed
without her knowledge-the Emperor Francis
in effigy! She was at once selzed and at the
command of the Austrian officer, made "to run
the gauntlet" or the L" Gdssenlduf" as they call
it. | gained some acquaintance with this Aus

with tough, timber stick. The criminal, a

the end, will die in few hours.
This was Madame Maderspachs punishment,
though with generous consideration for her sex,
the " run" was probably limited to once through.
The effect upon the proud high born lady,
was to drive her into insanity. The news of
such public, brutal indignity on his wife, 80
affected the husband that he shot himself through
the brain. And to entirely hush up the matter,
the only survivor, young son, was drafted into
the Austrian arm my in Italy as a common soldier,
where he is still. The whole deed seems TO
have come, if not directly from Hqynau, at least
from his general orders.
The poor LADY lives still in Pesth, in half
crazed condition. 1t is said, after Haynau's
Aagelation by the London brewers, some one
sent her paper, containing an account of it;
and she kept it for days in her bosom wet with
tears.
Somehow or other she obtained, too, piece
of the brooms with which he was beaten, and,
muniac-ike, she made bracelet of it, which
she now wears.

WHAT IS A YEAR r.

What IL a ycari 'Tis but n wave
On Life's dark rolling stream,
Which is so qrickly gone that we
Account it but dream:
'Tis but a single earnest throb
OF Time old iron heart,
Which tireless now, and strong as when
1t first with life did start.
What is year' 'Tis but turn
Of Times old brazeu wheel,
Or hut page upon the book
Which h death must shortly seal;
Ills bnt a step upon the road
Which we must travel O'er--
A few more steps, and we shall walk
Ife's weary road no more
What is year? 'Tis but breath
From Times old nostrls blown,
As rushing onward o'er the earth,
We hear his weary moan;
'Tis like the bubble on the wave,
Or dew upon the lawn
As transient as the mists of morn
Beneath the summer sun.
What is year ? 'Tis but type
Of Iife's oft-changing scene
Youlh's happy morn comes gaily on
With hills and valleys green:
Next Summers prime succeeds the spring,
Then Autumn with a tear,
Then comes old Wnter-Death and all
Must find their level here.

who approached him he piteously entreated to

allowance for his malady, and had no patience
