AUSTRIAN kEyENGE-Our Paris correspon.
dent, in the letter published yesterday, says tha
"The news from Vienna is, that the process
now going on against Madame Messelanyi, .
sister Of Kossuth, will TERMINATE in a sentence
of DEATH" Fortunately, the lady in question
is in Brussels, beyond the reach of the anointed
butchers who rule over Austrian people, and
there is good reason to hope that she, with an
elder sister aud their children, will soon Join a
third sister, already established in the U. S.
Mainly through the efforts of one or two ladies
in this city sum Of money has been recently
raised sufficient to pay the passage Of both these
sisters of the gifted and heroic Hungarian exile,
with their six children, under the reduced prices
very kindly fixed by the Bremen Steam Nav;ga-
ton Company and the house of Grinnell, MINI
turn, & Co. Madame Rutgay, the elder of the
two, is probably now in Eng land, and will EN-.
bark in the Hermann, which leaves Bremen to-
day. Madame Messelanyi, who is younger, and
in delicate health, will come later in the season,
by London packet. Both are highly accom-
plished ladies', as remarkable for their genius and
virtues as for the misfortunes which have fallen
upon their house.
Four years have now elapsed since the noble
endeavor of the Hungarians to achieve their
independence was crushed by Russian interven
ton. From that time to this no renewal of the
effort has been made-the supremacy of Aus
trian power is hallenged-Hungary lies prone
beneath the Hapsburgh domnation-and from
all official quarters have gone forth assurances
that order is restored, and that the people Of
Hungary rejoice in the restoration Of the pater-
nal sway Of the Austrian Emperor. And yet
scarcely week elapses that does not witness
fresh arrests, fresh accusations, fresh executions.
For four years one sad stream of patriot
blood has flowed around the foot Of the impe
rial throne. Is it never to be stanched' Is the
Austrian government absolutely insensble. not
only to human pity. but to those considerations
of policy which in other cases prompt TO mercy,
after the danger has passed, which alone gives
cruelty, any semblance Of excuse. Either the
present government of Austria must be COM
posed of monsters of inhumanity or IFS pretcnces
Of security are hollow and unsubstantial, and
peril still surrounds it on every side.-.NeaO York
Times, april2i.
