PRICE SD.

A short ie ago, a young woman of lady-
manne, presented herself before the mayor of
ck (Moselle), ant said that her name was Theresa
Kirchberg, that she resided at Neiderlanstein, in the
duchy of Nassau, and that she came to oppose the pro.
jected marriage between a Mr. Mayer Reinhold, corn
merchant at Coblentz, and a young girl named Fanny Ca-
hen, daughter of a tradesman at Sierck. In support of her
opposition she asserted that a young child who accompa-
nied her was the fruit of the intimate relations she had
long held with Reinhold. The Mayor said that that de•
cumstance was not sufficient to warrant him in refusing
to celebrate the marriage. The young woman then went
to the house of the Cahens, and told the mother and,
daughter that she had been seduced by Reinhold, arid
cruelly abandoned. The mother showed much sym-
pathy towards her, but the young lady declared that
she would persist in marrying Reinhold. " Even if he
was affianced to you," said she, " and even if he be the
father of your child, it matters not, fir in France a
young girl has no objection to marry a man who
has had an illegitimate -child!" "In Germany," OP
returned the other, "it is different, for there
I have already succeeded in preventing his
marriage on two or three occasions." On finding that
this remark produced no effect, she added, "Leave to
this child his father, I beg of you—if not, you will
incur the greatest danger." " What danger?' asked
the other, but the visitor only replied by warning
the young girl to reflect on what she had said.
The next day Mayer Reinhold received a letter in
these words—" When you receive this letter, Mayer, you
will again be my affianced, and your Cahen will be mar-
ried with heaven!" On the same day she paid a second
visit to the Cahens, and prayed and supplicated that the
marriage with Mayer Reinhold might be broken off.
But on a peremptory refusal being given she -with-
drew. A few hours later, however, she returned to
the house, and on being told that the young girl had
gone to a draper's shop in the town, she hurried
there, and, rushing into the shop, cried, " Will you
have me, Mayer—yes or no?" Mademoiselle Cahen
cried, "No Whereupon she drew a pistol from her
bosom, and fired at her rival. .Luekily the contents
did not touch her, and on seeing this, the woman rushed,
upon the young girl, seized her by the throat like a
fury, and attempted to strangle her. She was, how-
ever, separated from her victim. She then calmly
proceeded to the mayor's house, and constituted herself
prisoner. The mayor went to seek the gendarmes, leav-
ing her alone. She might then have escaped, but on a
suggestion to that effect being made to her, she rejected
it disdainfully, and subsequently wrote to her brother,
"to have escaped would have been disgraceful." Being
brought to trial at the best ass zee of the department of
Moselle, the facts here stated were proved in evidence.
As, however, the ill-treatment the poor woman had re-
ceived from Mayer Reinhc Id excited universal sympathy
in her behalf, the jury gladly seized hold of the fact that
no ball had been discovered in the shop, to assume that
the pistol was not loaded, though the accused herself
had at one time asserted the contrary; accordingly they
returned a verdict of acquittal, to the intense sedative:.
tion of an immense multitude assembled in the Court
and its vicinity.
