NIcIssITUDEs OF A WoMANis LIFE.--From
ne AH=e{ger deS TVesteRs the TRIBUNE trans
ties the following touching narrative, the
acts of which are doubtless not alone III their
ainful sadness, among the experiences and
offerings Of European emigrants to this
ountry =
"a few days since, at st. Louis, at an
arly hour in the morning, the common dead
;agon, which at the cost of the city conveys
riendless psupers to their last home, stopped
efore house in the southern part of the
lwn. The driver got down, went into the
ouse, and soon after appeared at the door,
long with another Indifferent looking man,
4rrying coffin of rough boards. The cof-
n was put into the wagon, and the wheels
attled away over the empty streets to the
lace of internent. No one followed it with
Doks OF sorrow No one stood with heavy
cart beside the grave, as the clods fell upon
ne coffin. And yet that coffin hid the form
f woman once the object of countless at
entons, who was once honored admired,
nvied in society, who controlled vast riches,
nd who, but a few years since, before shc
'od the shores of America, could look for
ard to happy and contented old age.
1.-The decea ,ed was Rosa NEScHEMI, the
aughter of an immensely rich Polish Noble
ian. In her early youth she was attached
the Court Of the Austrian Emperor, where,
the age of eighteen, she married French
obleman, who was also very rich. She lived
iterward, for long and happy years, partly on
re estates of her husband, partly in journeys
trough Germany, Spain, Italy, and England
nd bore her husband three sons, who received
lie best education, and ON whom their pa
ents looked with the greatest pride.
"fhis happiness was interrupted by the
-1,,Es--
ias actively engaged in it, and fell on July
8, shot through by three bullets. His name
Jay still be read or the column in the place
la Bastille. OF the sons, the Oldest,
Dung man of remarkable talents, had greatly
icceedeG i'll Spain, and was at that time
rigate Secretary to King Ferdinand. After
re death of the King, he withdrew to a
ountry-house near Valencia, where, as is
opposed, he was assasslnated. The second
)n who had become priest, was a special
vorite of Pope Gregory; but he too, died
loItly after this event. The third, who was
len quite young, remained with the mother,
no had found an asylum in Switzerland,
'hither she brought the relics of her fortune.
When he was 16 he left his mother and went
America. In New Orleans he found en-
loyment and earned money, but bad com
any and natural disposition TO excess soon
I'd him astray, and about five years ago he
sorted to the last desperate means of re-
wing his credit, by inducing his gray haired
iother to come to this country. She could
-ot resist the entreaties of her only son, and
anne. She was able to get together $4,000,
4 cash, which her son very soon dissipated.
ONE two years ago he ended his career in
lew Orleans, where he was deputy sheriff
the time, by stabbing creole. He fled to
alifornia, and the aged mother, to whom
lew Orleans had naturally become hateful,
fent up the river to ST. Louis.
One morning of week before last, at
arly dawn, the miserable city dead-car of
t. Louis bore the mortal remains of Rosa
ieschemi 30 the place of their last unwept
epose. Such is life
