Russtztn ‘forces. The Army of Bern hatl
been tlcfeati-tl at Eletitianstadt by the Ross-
.l‘tXllCiCl1(‘l‘&tl Ludcrl, and be had tied with
a small band of ftiitliful followers toivrirtl
Te tries we r.

With this position of the combatants, the
plan of Deiiibinski was to unite with Geor-
gey ni.-at Arad, and then to attack the . Russ-
ian forces. Bi.-fui'e this was effected, news
reached him ofthc capitiilatioii of Gt=orgey

and that the Gtivcrrior, M. Kossutli, had
been (‘(lfIi[‘l("lll'(.l to forsake Arad, and retire
lo the town of Vilaitros.

’ Before lcaviiig Aiad, the Governor sep-
arated from his wife and cliildi-en, and tlieir
partin_<_g scene is saitl to have been one of the
ltloél. l0llCl)lI)g'lt3i’.UH‘. Under the circum-
stances oftlie moment, it was a subject of
even more than doubt whether they wnuid
ever again meet on t'Hl‘ll't. lt was only when
8 young Hungarian tioblt-man, named Ash-
but, now in exile in Kutayieh with M. Kits.
.-ui'n, solemnly swore to his wife that he
would never leave her liusbaiirl, that Ma-
dame I'\(tsSt17.l't ‘éoiiscrited to be separated
from him,-and seek safety in flight. The
children were C0llfilIt'(.l to the cure of a ptivutc
scctctairy of the GuVi*l't)til’, and this iiitlivid-

tender mt,‘|'L‘l(.'$ of Hayiiziu for the purpose of
SCCUi’ltl_5_—; his own pardnii and safety’. 'l‘hi.e
ClltlLlft'fl set out bvfote their mother, and the
latter, till);-l'fligl17, eiitlcavored to keep zit
least so ticarto lllttlll as to licur now and
_ll’.l.'n Lfllltlll‘ safczy.

Miiiliiiiic Kossnzli sour_rl,t out a brother of
hers l’(‘.Sli_lll":g in the town t.l‘Vil:t;_'m, and he
is now lltlpl‘l.~.L.‘t’tL’l.l in the furt1‘t)_<_s of Gnmotn,
with many others ofthe unfonuiiiite Hungar-
flail] patriots, for t-igl'itei_-ii years, on act‘.Ot.ltlt
oftlie succor which be lll(‘n gave. to his sister.
Leaving him, she next went in search of her
cliildrcn, and waiidcrrtl to a pcsla-, or farm-
house, of Boeksak, belonging to a relative.-—
l'here she fell ill of a typos fever, which
nearly ended her life; and when so far re.
covered as to be able again to travel, she
continued her journey in Search of her chil-
dren. She soon learned that they had been
given up by their protector to the Austrian
General Hay-nan, and taken to Pesih. Her
own safety depended wholly upon the fidel-
ity of the Huiigariaii peasaiits, and on their
auuchmeiit to her husband.

Now lluvilig no other object in view than
hcr own safety, without frieiitls bctler offtlian
herself, she soon became retlucctt to 8. state
of complete tlesutution. In disguise, she
wanileretl ovirtlie most iiiiseraible part of
Hungary. She even, as-a means of salt-.ty,

as well as support, sought. for service as a

servant, and by telling that she was a poor
woman xx ho had just lit-i:-n discliargcd from

her capture, and proclainiixig death :13 the

Among the persons *.t-lioiled with M Kos-
siitli, bi.-lore the ovenvlieliiiing number of
his eiicmics, was an eldcily lady, whom it
was iit-cessary to dt-sigmite as Miidiiiri L.
and who from being iiiiable to title as fast
and as lom_.- as tlinse who were stronger and
youiiger than liersclf, soon became exhaus-
ted and was left behind She had :1 soil, u

and restoring her to her liusbaiid. ‘

For this bt=.ncvnlt-nt purpose Mailanie L.
