AUSTRIAN BANDITTI.—The Vienna journal/ contain an account of a very horrible affair " A peasant of Galician I'odolia went ten days ago to the fair of Zharaz to 'sell a pair of oxen. On his return, having been drinking rather too much, he placed his money in a girdle, which he fastened round the body of his daughter who accompanied him. On passing through a wood a man stopped them and imperatively demanded their money or their lives. The peasant declared that be had no money on him ; but the man, knowing that he had sold his oxen, seized him by the hair, and dragged him a little way into the wood. There two other men joined him, and the three murdered the unfortunate man. The girl distinctly saw the crime perpetrated. Orestly terrified she took to Hight. and after proceeding some distance saw a cottage. She rushed into it, and fund a woman. She told the woman what had occurred, and said that she had the money on her. This money the woman took and fastened in a drawer, and in compliance with the prayer of the girl placed her in a bedroom for safety. After a while three men entered the cottage—they were those who had committed the murder. One of them was the woman's husband. They told her that they had killed the man, and that they had been dreadfully disappointed on finding no money on him. The woman, with a loud laugh, produced the belt, and told them that the girl who had confided it to her was in the next room. The murderers manifested great joy at the sight of the cash. But after a while they reflected that the girl might denounce them, and they deliberated as to what they should do with her. The poor creature distinctly heard all they said. They determined to kill her, and that no trace of the crime might remain, resolved to burn 11,r to death in the oven. They proceeded at once to light the oven, and in ashort time the poor girl heard the flames crackling. Driven to desperation, she looked about fer means of escape. Fortunately she ascertained that the wall was only of clay, and she was able to make a hole in it large enough to creep through. She escaped, and after proceeding some distance met two gendarmes. To them she related what had occurred. They proceeded at once to the cottage, and arrested the three murderers and the women.  I)INSER To MR.
