the moral of life while the actor is still on the

AUTOBTOGRAP4Y OF7 LOLA MONT'EZ.
Lola Montez delivered her second and concIn-
ding lecture ON her own history, on Tuesday
night at Hope Chapel, New York, to very
large audience, the chapel being filled to its ut
most capacity. We copy from our New York
exchanges the following report:
She resumed her autobiography at the point
where, after leaving st, Petersburg, she visited
Paris, where she became attianced TO the editor
OF La freSse, but who was subsequently killed
in duel by ". de Beaurillon. Lola FASTENED
to the duelIing ground for the purpose of tu-
king the place of her lover but she was too late.
On the trial of the murderer at Rouen, she was
examined, together with Alexander Dumas, and
his answer to the question of what his profess
sion was, worth recording. He answered,

this unfortunate affair Lola Montez went to Ba-
vara, and for her history there she referred to
an article published in the -AR,epicuH LGo JouF.

delphla editor, who was 1T chat time i'll Europe.
The lecturer alluded in strong terms to the per-
secution Lola Montez endured from the JeSuts
in Germany; and OF her arrival in America she
found that ever visilant agency at work SANDER
ing her character, in connection with her hiStO-
ry in Bavaria; even the Protestant American
press fell into the error of representing King
Louis of Bavaria as weak, old, unprincipled, and
careless Ofthe happiness of his people, whereas
the very reverse was the truth.
Lola than referred TO the political part of her
career in Bavaria. She it was who broke down
by her counsels to the King, the influence of
the JesuitS aud of Austria, and in spite OF them
she was elevated to nobility by the title of
Countess of LandSfeldt with estate of the
same name containing 3,000 souls under her
rule. In her whole history in that country
Lola MonteZ challenged any one TO produce an
instance of power in the hands of any woman

it was that influenced Louis to dismiss his cor
rupt cabinet and select new one from the
ranks ofthe middle classes. This gave rise to
the enmitv OF the mobiles and the .Iesuits. She

bride her by promises Of a splendid match;
Austrian and Russian gold was offered to her.
She was often shot at once poisoned; but when
| the revolution broke out she was driven into
exile by the influence of Austria money on the
Tabble. She then fed to Switzerland, disguised

IN Bavaria, clothed as a boy, and eXactcd an oath
from him to abdicate rather than revoke any of
the liberal measures she bad induced him to
adopt, and he kept that oath by nbdicating.

that Lola Montez never wore mans apparel off
the stage, except om her stolen visit to Bavaria
never handled a sowhide in her life, and was not
in California for two years after the time stated
in his book. The story OF Mr.. Russell, in short,
was an abominable lie. Ii she was to collect all
the lies told of Lola, including those in Mr.. Hair

part OF Lola Montez's lecture, were some feeling
