v Free City of JlAirouitG,')
Noktti German Union, August 2, I SGI#. /
A few clays since an anonymous letter reached
llio authorities at Cracow (formerly a free city,
now united to the Austrian Empire), giving the
information that within the walls of the ancient
Nunnery of the Carmelites, in the district of the
city Called “tho Wnssola,” a female had been
kept in captivity for nineteen years, and that she
was (hero still in strict confinement. So many
particulars were given, that Judgo Gcbliardt at
onco visited the Jli.sliop, in company of two con
fidants, demanding tho necessary authorization
to visit and search the Cloister. Bishop Gnleoki
at first refnsod ; bnt when Judgo Gohhardt de
clared his intention to procure forcible entrance
for himself, gave him a letter of authority to tho
Canonicns. Tho Canonicus led tho commission,
consisting of Dr. Blumnnstock, Physician to the
Court-at-Law, tho Attorney for tho State, two
citizens, and tho aforesaid Dr. Gohhardt, ns head
of tho Commission, to tho Cloister, tho portals
of which wero opened only aflor much delibera
tion and delay. Judgo G. demanded to see the
Abbess, who, being ill, was, after a second groat
delay, represented by her assistant. Judgo G.
said briefly but energetically, “Show mo at
onco to tho cell of Barbara Itubrik."
Tho effect wns remnrkable, and tho assistant
led tho commission to a cell in tho basement se
cured by two iron doors. Another iron door
next to tho cell led to tho sower. When tho
doors of the cell wero opened such a disgusting
smell filled tho air that tho members of tho
court had to withdraw for awhile, bnt tho terri
ble spectablo within soon caused them to np-
{ trench ngain. In tho narrow, dark space, dim-
y lit by a hole in tho wall, was cowering upon
n handful of stinking straw, a totally naked, fe.
male. Bcforo her stood upon tho damp ground,
two small plates, containing tho remains of her
daily food—turnips and a sort of pap. When
tho poor creaturo beheld the light of day and
people, she roso screaming, begging for food,
and that sho was dying of hunger. Tho snrvoy
of tho prison was soon ended, sinco, save tho
naked walls and tho heap of straw, notliing
whntover wns to bo scon bnt a vessel, connected
with tho drain already mentioned.
Tho poor woman was n nnn, named Barbara
Ubiyk, (or Rnbrik) bom in 1817, who entered
tip Abbey in 1811 and who had pined away in
ifiis terrible holo since tho year 1840. Her
body, a perfect skeleton, wns covered with a
crust of filth. Sho snid, among other things:
“Why do yon refnso mo coffee, which yon
promised mo two years sinco ?" Then sho com
menced to heap almso npon tho confessor, re
lating nt the same time scandaions secrets of tho
cloister, which it would be impossible to repeat.
Tho Bishop, who had been called to tho scone,
was received by her with reproaches; hut when
ho snid to her that ho had como to set her free,
she fell upon her knees before him. The Bish
op, to tho last degreo excited, demanded from
the nuns the explanation of this outrage, who
defended themselves with tho exenso that sho
was an “insane nnnwheronpon ho replied:
“I am in possession of my mental fncnlties, but
wero yon to confine mo as yon did this woman I
would bo crazy in twenty-four hours.” Ho at
onco forbid nil religions exorcises within tho
cloister and suspended a sacris, tho chaplain
and confessor, Fatcr Pictkiewicz.
Tho news had in tho meantime, liko wildfire,
sprend through tho city, and in tho afternoon of
tho 2Sd nit a groat mass of pcoplo awaited impn-
tiontly tho removal of tho victim to tho insano
asylum, which wns effected through a spiritual
commission at 4 o'clock. Barbara Ubryk, who
had been dressed in nun's clothes, left the clois
ter in company of Dr. Gobhnrdt and a sister of
tho order. Her words on this occasion betrayed
no insanity bnt a darkened condition of her fac
ulties. Sho jumped for joy when sho saw tho
light of God's sun ngain after twonty-ono years,
nnd beheld tho fresh green of tho cloister gar
den. The nuns accompanied her to tho door,
thinking, perhnps, that with her removal the
whole nffair was to be ended. At tbo moment
of her stepping through tho portal npon tlio
street, one of tho nuns, darkly veilod, appeared
nnd kissed Barbara who seemed to rccognizo
her nt once, for sho said: “It is yon, Agnes,
como with mo.” During the short transit to tho
nsylnm sho called continually for Agnes, faint
ing shortly nfterwards under thoinfluenco of tho
fresh air. Tho director of tho asylum received
tbo order to ndmit nono to her but Dr. Gobhnrdt,
the judgo nnd tho two physicians. Doctors Blu-
menstok nnd Jakubowski. Sho was brought, in
her feoblo condition, in a room, and, unaccus
tomed to sleep in a comfortable bed, fell out of
it in the night. Sinco slie has been cleansed and
properly dressed, sho does not look quite ns
wild. Her whole appearance is that of iufmito
misery. Tkoro is not n vestigo of flesh in her
face, tho oyes are deeply sunken in their sock
ets, brows nnd eye-lashes are totally fallen ont
—tho oyo halls totally dimmed. Sometimes she
speaks liko n rensonnblo person, mostly, bow-
over, the greatest nonsense, so that the doctors
aro obliged to watch her steadily.
It is obvious that tho greatest indignation
reigned in Cracow. In the evoning of Friday,
at eleven o’clock, a crowd of people from the
better classes assembled before the cloister,
smashed tho windows, nnd wero about giving
greater practical proofs, when tho military ap
peared. Yet another attempt wns mndo; tlio
doors wero broken open, nnd a surging wave of
human heads entered tho court yard, with wild
cries of “Away with the Nuns"—and somo
young fellows had already reached tho cells,
when tho troops succeeded to throw them out
ngain—only with difficulty could they clear tho
•court-yard. All felt, of course, that under tho
provocation it would bo impossible to us© tho
weapons against the populace. In the night of
tho second day, Saturday, after the discovery
of Barbara, a vast assembly, in a procession,
nppenred before tho cloister, nnd nearly the
same scones wore re-enacted. Tho remainder
of yet unbroken windows were smashed in, and
stones so heavy were thrown upon the roofs of
tho nunnery that tho feeble shingles went ev
erywhere to pieces. A strong military force
appearing, tho crowd cried : “Dot us go to the
Cloister of tho Jesuits—down with tho Jesu
its!” Tho Jesuits, advised of their dangers,
blockaded their gigantic entrance door ; con
cealed themselves in sacred corners within tho
bnilding. and extinguished the lights in their
cells. The people commenced their demon
stration with a charivari : then began to smash
tho windows ; greeting every pane that CAmo
down with a deafening halloo. Several strong
fellows now made attempts to force the door ;
others climbed over the walls in the garden to
aid from within, and tho united forces of the
staunch young Cracowians broke the door at
log<V A few brave Jesuits who commenced to
remonstrate with tho people, and among whom
was the Prior, were maltreated and wonnded.
The whole Jesuits were in imminent danger,
when the military cleared the place again.
“Now to the Franciscans," was theory. The
same things happened again, nnd until three
o'clock in the morning tho popnlaco beleaguered
the conventa„within the city. The next day the an-
thorit ies had made such preparations, that no liko
” tumults could again occur. Cavalry and regn-
lar infantry occupied all the cloisters, and the
streets were all guarded by pickets. What con
tributed mostly to the pacification of the people
was the announcement that both the prioress
and assistant as well as the Pater Confessor had
pri"n tC<1 am ' lod S ed the ^criminal
tb^ h #gi Pre8S—newBpa P er of Cracow, informs ns
writer of tho letter of in-
te aISO b f. n dis covered. It is a cer-
m Mr. Gonsierowski, who has an intelligence-
; biS Ci ,7’ who informed WS-
conrt himself of the fact. The manner of
discovery is said to be as follows : Pater Lew-
who" 1 ha’A M ° nk ° f th ° 0rder ° f tho Carmelites,
who bad been many years Pater Confessor in
, cIo T lst< \ r ’ left Cracow somo time
since and went to Irzcbraia. where he, one night,
considerably drunk, related the fact of Barbara's
incarceration to the pastor there, an old, ven
erable gentleman. This gentleman informed bis
consin Gonsierowski, in Cracow, who made im
mediate reports to the criminal conrt and the
Ministry of Justice. And, singular coincidence,
in tho same moment when this inhuman deed
comes to light, arrives also the news that in the
night of July 2.>th Pater Lewkowicz died in the
cloister of Czerna near Krzenowiee, the most im
portant witness. The trial will no doubt be one
of the most interesting of modern times, a coun
terpiece to that of a Prussian nobleman at Er
furt, who, many years Rince had kept his own
daughter, a l >c anti fill young girl of nineteen
years, immured in his own house for several
years. This ovent at Cracow, it is to be hoped,
will make an end to the immoral and despised
institutions of cloisters, convents and nunne
ries in Anstria. ,
While I wasin theinterior of Germany dnring
the beginning of summer, another interesting
case happened, and I regretted at tho time, al- ;
though quite near, not to be enabled to witness j
the trial of the murderer, at Gera, in tho princi
pality of Itenss. Tho murderer, named Leopold,
from Lobenstein, twenty-seven years of agei I
had been from early youth a had hoy. Loading ■
the life of a vagabond, then and ever after, he i
had been punished several times for theft and I
other peccadilloes. Through tho early death of
his mother, he was taken care of by the city and
sent to school. When ho left it his testimonials
were bad. His father sending him as an ap
prentice to a miller, after a few months service
he was dismissed. The same was tho case with
a weaver who had to send him away. Thieving
and tho life of n vagabond had in the meantime
become bis second natnro; yet he contrived to
ncquiro tho art of weaving, carried to great per
fection in this part of Germany. Tho time ar
rived when ho had to enter tho military service
in April, 18C4. His conduct was bad enough so
that he never stood higher than in tho second
class; privates being in tho army dividod in
three classes according to conduct and profi
ciency. After he left tho service he worked in
liis nativo town, aftorwards with Master Kneusel
in Gera. Here ho stole a sum of money, nnd
was pnt two years in tho penitentiary at Zeitz,
after which ha wns nnder police control three
years moro; during which he worked with a
miller where he commenced an affair of tho
heart, nnd finally in a cloth-manufactory in
Poosneck. Here ho resolved to enter the French
Foreign Legion, applied for a pass-port but
never came to tnko it from tho authorities who
wero willing to givo it in order to get rid of him
Leaving Gera, ostensibly to go to France, he
visited his acquaintance, tho woman Pnchta,
who sent him away again, perfectly disgusted
with tho follow, andbe reached Gera on the 18th
of July, 18G8, without a penny in his pocket.
On tho 2Gth July of tho same year, on n fino
Rummer’s day, a woman named Pohle, with bas
ket upon her back, ns peasant womgn aro wont
to go, went to tho weekly market nt Gera. Her
road led her over a bridge spanning a gentle
rivulet, overgrown on both sides with denso wil
low trees, when she, just npon tho bridge, heard
a strong rustling sound. Looking qnickly in
tho direction, sho beheld tho wild face of a
young man who rose lircast-high from the thick
et, holding in ono hand a naked human leg.
Terrified, tho woman hastened forward, looking
neither right nor left, as if sho had seen or heard
nothing. A few paces onward meeting the man
Koorhel from Langcnberg, she communicated
to him what sho had seen, nnd nnder tho protcc- I
tion of a man, she wa3prevailed npon to retrace
her steps. They were near the spot when they
saw tho murderer coming ont of tho thicket ap
parently perfectly unconcomed, going along tho
borders of tlio rivulet, when they called after
him, however, accelerating his paco and going
quickly over tho railway-lino toward tho villago
of Langcnberg. Both man and woman had per
ceived that his hand was fnll of blood and that
lie purposely turned his face away from them.
Bnt when they rcachod tho spot, they saw the
corpse of a young woman, actually butchered,
yet warm. Tho wands on tho neck wero mor
tal—no help there. As qnickly ns possible they
went to Gera to inform the authorities, meet
ing on tlio way anolbeT woman, Carolino Len-
zor, who had likowise seen tho murderer. When
tho officials camo to tho spot nono of those pres
ent could recognize tho victim, who appeared to
bo abont twenty years of age, nnd well-formed,
oven pretty. Her clothes, n little basket nnd a
portomonnnio with n littlo money wero all found.
The physician testified that after tho first wound
received on tho neck tho young woman must
havo perished.
Tho third day after the deed had dawned, and
no trace of tho murderer had been discovered,
there came tho aged basket-maker Burghold,
with two daughters, from Cocstritz, to the At
torney for tho State, fenring, with trembling
voice, that the person found might bo bis daugh
ter, who had been expected nt homo several
days since. Sho served nt tho house of a mer
chant, nt Gera, nnd wns to havo visited her
homo during tho temporary nbsenco of tho fam
ily with which she was. The clothes wero rec
ognized nt once, nnd tho scene when father nnd
sisters behold the dend body of their loved ono
horribly mutilated is not to bo described. Soon
tho conrt received news and proofs which made
it positive that Leopold wns tho murderer. The
motives of the deed wero not discovered even
dnring tho trial. Ho was arrested at Strassbourg
in France. Sixty witnesses testified against him,
nnd the jurors brought a verdict of guilty with
11 to 1 votes, wlierenpon the court sentenced
him to death. The most tragic part of tho whole
affair is thnt tbo aged father, deeply moved du
ring tbo trial, died two days afterwards in the
house of a stranger, away from a home, of sor
row, nnd of a broken heart.
Another case and I am dono with these
scenes. A few days since there camo to my
office a man who gave his name as Lcrche, ask
ing for information as to tho best manner of
reaching Virginia, where he wished to emigrate.
As tlio man hail no means I could hold but little
encouragement out to him and he left just when
my associate entered. Ho (my friend) looked
rather singularly at me, and after a while
asked: “Do you know that man?” Not at
all.” I answered; “he came to me to send him
to Virginia ns an emigrant.” “This man,” my
friend replied, “was condemned to death not
long since for having set his own houso on fire
During the fire tho husband of a woman living
in the same lionse with him, met his death by
jumping out of the window. It was urged, but
not proven during the trial, that he had thrown
he man out of the window himself, nnd there
was considerable probability, because Lerche
lived with thnt woman. The jurors found him
gnilty of arson and the Judge sentenced him to
death. The lawyers discovering somo technical
error in the proceedings, the trial was set nside.
a new one ordered, and dnring the Becond trial
he was acquitted.
“Perhaps,” I joined in, “because he was en
abled to produce witnesses to mitigate his
^“Ko, because the jurors were startled when
the Judge, during the first trial, sentenced him
to death ; in the mean time public indignation
had somewhat abated ; people commenced to
pity him, and that saved his life. ’ _
Tho man has a free passage to Chili or Brazil,
and left a few days since. The long confine
ment had made him look thin, and his eyes
wore sunken in: be could not look into my face,
perhaps because he perceived that I was aware
with whom he spoke.
The celebrated singer, Wachtel, who has gone
to the United States not long since, where ho
will no donbt earn well-deserved laurels, (for he
is perhaps the best tenor now-a-days.) was, here
at Hamburg a common coachmen, driving his
own hack : and, as the gentleman who drove me
a few weeks ago through the beautiful environs
of this rich and splendid city said, his own
coachman once. Wachtel was waiting one day
for a customer in one of the squares of the city
where coaches are always to be had, smoking
his cigar, and singing to himself, when a rich
merchant stopped and asked him whether he
was very fond of singing. "It is my greatest
pleasure," replied tho future great artist, “when
I can, among my own people, sing with them
our popular songs “ Then come to me,”
said the merchant and we will talk abont
it together. Wachtel was a fine looking young
fellow and soon, through the protection of
his newly found friend, was enabled to culti
vate his talent and has made himself one of
the first artists of the day. A like case hap
pened at Carlsbad not long ago. Mr. de Hnlsen,
the Director of the Imperial theatres, at Berlin,
was. during the present season, at Carlsbad, the
celebrated watering place in Bohemia, and
passing by the telegraph office some afternoon,
his attention was attracted by a fine voice with
in. There sat the operator, tapping away, and
sending off his messages, accompanying this
occupation with some magnificently executed
roulades. Mr. Hnlsen, a good judge, no doubt,
of talented voices, entered into conversation
with him and finding tho young man only too
happy to accept the offer, engaged him for the
opera at Berlin, with a salary of two thousand
dollars. Tho sportive youngster telegraphed
his father as follows: “Mr. Pavlicek, senior,
Prague, I am just discovered by Hnlsen and am
to go to Berlin in order to finish my musical ed
ucation. I have for the present two thousand
dollars salary. So done on the 9th July, 18G9.
Pavlicek, junior.” Mr. Pavlicek. junior, will,
undoubtedly, when he has gained his reputation,
make use of tbo El Dorado which tho United
States are for every good artist.
Spooking of artistes just now I remember a
recent case of a ballet-dancer which happened
at Paris. She was before the magistracy ac
cused of having abstracted a chicken from tho
stall of a vender of viands. In 1833, the ac
cused, Mademoiselle Anais, was ono of the
celebrities of the ballet of the Parisian opera.
The havte-roUe of all male Paris at her feet.
Her reputation penetrated as far as Brazil, and
Emperor Dom Petro, who was ambitious to havo
an opera and ballet liko that of Zue Lepcletier
in Paris; caused her engagement for tho theatre
at Bio Janeiro with a monthly salary of 15,000
francs. With her went at tho same time, Mon
sieur Charles with a ditto salary of 12,000.
Quito as enthusiastic as at Paris, perhaps more
so wa3 her reception and life at Bio. With an
eye to practical business, Monsieur Charles and
Mademoiselle Anais, (the former falls in love
with tho latter,) they nnited their salaries, mak
ing the snug sum of 27,000 francs per month.
But this happy life was not to last very long.
A considerable sum of their salary they had
left undrawn in tho hands of tho cashier of the
theatre, when one day said cashier disappeared.
Disconsolately the Monsienr Charles obtained
an nudience with the Emperor, who listened to
his complaints with great kindness, whispering
at the samo time something into tho o&r of the
Minister of tho Imperial Household. Monsienr
Charles considered his trembles at an end; his
heavy loss repaid throngh tho grace of the
Emperor—and one may picture his despair,
when a day afterwards ho received a grant of
five hundred acres of wild land somewhere in
the interior, and a broad hint that His Majesty
stands no longer in need of his services. Charles,
however, recovered his senses when he heard
from Brazilian merchants thnt this grant is very
vnluablo on account of a moss which grows
there. A company is soon erected, implements,
cl<\. ji'irohasrd. t.» turn tins vnluablo prop
erty to money; and it wonld no donbt have re
alized all tho fond expectations if the Indians
had not bagged tho whole concern nnd Mr.
Charles been obliged to return to Bio penniless.
Darais is gone, no ono knows where to. 1838
finds both in Paris again; Darais inhabiting a
princely mansion, and Monsienr Charles dancing
at a cheap theater at tho rate of 900 francs a
year. They meet again; Charles avows his in
tention to quit tho stage if he only had 500
francs to commcnco some small business in the
eating line, nnd Darais, benevolent soul, gives
tho money to him. Ten years after, and while
Charles is steadily going up, Darais is going
down, down; ho has learned nothing but
dancing; but Charles, although married
to a bravo little French-woman, has not
forgotten his former love and aidded hor in
overy possiblo way, without being able howovor
to maintain poor Anais altogether. Ten years
moro in this year 'GO, one day, troubled with
tho pongs of hunger, she abstracted during
Charles absence a chicken, because Charles whs
not there to givo it to her, and his wife did not
know her; tho trio meet before the magistrate
—the wholo secret is out, that Anais is Charles’
former love, that to Anais he owes it that he
has anything at all, and his bravo little wife ;
(who would not havo married him without the
stall, yon know) and with real French nature
they all wept and embrace, and the judge wipes
a tear out of -his eyes with his cambric pocket-
handkerchief and declares they must hence
forth bo very, very hnppy, which no doubt they
will bo. I conclude my epistle with an an
ecdote of the present pretender for tho Spanish
crown, Duko de Montpensier, which I read re
cently in the memories of d'Alton Shce, tho
democratic Peer of France, and which gives
some insight into that gentleman’s character.
It was tho 24th day of February 1848, and
within the Tuileries reigned great disorder.
Louis Philip was still in hopes to save his crown
nnd to calm tho stonn through new concessions.
Tho Queen was bathed in tears, and conjured
him not to falter; Bngeaud counseled resist
ance, the Princes were silent, only the Duko de
Montpensier, the youngest one of all, entreated
his father with unbecoming violence to abdicate,
since ho feared for the dynasty, having no
thought of things such as n republic. In this
moment, Girardin entered tho hall and exclaim
ed: “All is lost, Sire, if yon do not abdicate.”
The Queon cried ont: (d’Alton Shee was pres
ent) “Never, never, my husband! Prefer ruin
to shame ! A king of France must not leave his
throne liko a coward.”. The old man strug
gled with himself; Nemours remained silent;
tho 'Widow of Orleans, the full of sorrows,
poor Helen, sobbed and wns near to spasms,
when Montpensier pushed his father violently
toward the writing-desk, took hold of him by the
shoulders and said harshly: “Sign tho act,
sire, or else wo are all lost. Have you lost your
senses ?” The old King was pale as a sheet.—
He took tho pen and wrote slowly with large
lotters, without trembling, his abdication.—
When he was ready, his son peered down npon
the paper-full of curiosity, to rend the contents
of the eventful document, when the King seized
the pen yet full of ink, pushed it into the face
of Montpensier, blackening it considerably, and
cried ont: “Miserable fellow, are you satisfied
now ?”

tho testimony of Physicians and patients
who have used Rosndalis: send for our

nac for this year, which wo publish for
gratuitous distribution; it will give you
much valuable information;
Dr. R. W. Carr, of Baltimore, says—I
take pleasure in recommending your Rosa-
dalif as a very powerful alterative. I havo
. soon it ur cd in two cases with happy results;
ono in a caso of secondary syphilis, in
which the patient pronounced himself
cured after having taken live bottles of
your medicine. The other is a case of
scrofula of long standing, which ia rapidly
improving under its use, and tho indica
tions are that tho patient, will soon recover.
I havo carefully examined tho formula)
by which your Rosadalis is made, and find
it an excellent compound of alterative in-
i gredients.
Dr. Sparks, of Nicholasvillo, Ky,. says he
has used Rosadalis in cases of Scrofula and
Secondary Syphilis with satisfactory re
sults—a cleaner of the Blood I know no
: bettor remedy.
Samuel G. McFadden, of Murfreesboro,

I have usc l seven bottles of Rosadalis,
and itiii entirely cured of Rheumatism;

brother, who has Scrofulous Sore Eyes.
Beniamin Bcchtol. of Lima, Ohio, writes:

Rosadalis and it effected a porfcct cure.

ing effect-’: As blotches, bodily weakness, indigestion,
constipation, aver.-ion t>i society, unmanliness, dread
of future events, loss of memory, indolence, nocturnal
emissions, and finally prostration of the vital powers,
can bo fully restored to health. Persons afflicted
with this, or any other delicate, intricate, or long
standing constitutional complaint, should give the
Doctor a trial. He never fails.
The Doctor publishes a medical circular that gives
a full ex position of venereal and private diseases, that
can be had free at his office, or by mail for one stamp.
It gives a clear delineation of all the discuses and
conditions resulting from the infringement of the
morel laws, excesses,indulgences,exposures, and im
prudences in married or single life. Every sentence
contains instruction to the afflicted, and enabling
them to determine the preciso nature of their com
plaints.
The establishment, comprising ten ample rooms,
is central. When it is not convenient to visit the
city, the Doctor's opinion can be obtained by giving
a written statement of the case, and medicines can be
forwarded by mail or express. In some instances,
however, a personal examination i3 absolutely neces
sary, while in others, daily personal attention is re
quired, and for the accommodation of such patients
tnere are apartments connected with tho office that
are provided with every requisite that is calculated
to promotorecovery, including medicated vapor baths.
All prescriptions are prepared in tho Doctor's own
Laboratory, under his personal supervision. Medi
