Melancholy Affair In Paris-Death Of n
Princess from n WOmnn's Rudeness. .
A Paris correspondent of Boston paper
writes in late letter q. m..
A scene v hich occurred last winter in the
diplomatic circle at the Tuileries has had a
sad ending this week. You may remember
/ wrote you last winter that at one of the
balls at the Tuileries, Just as the Court were
entering the ballroom, most violent scene
took place between the ladies. One, q
diplOmatist's wife, ordered another out of the
diplomatic circle. "What are YOU doing
hereT exclaimed the diplomatist's wife !;
"you, the wife Of my husbands domestic !;
this is no place for you -.. gle
The lady apostrophized in this billingsgate
style, did what every woman does in a
dilemma; she tainted, and when she recov-
cred in the cool air Of an anti-chamber (fur
she was instantly borne into another rooml
she was seized with a violent fit of the
Mysteries. This unfortunate lady was the
Princess Chariclea Cantacuzena, by birth O
Princess Vogorides. She was in this way
not only o woman of birth, but she had mar
ried young the descendant of an historical
Greek family that had given two emperors
to Constantinople, and several princesses
regnant to MoldaVia and Wallachia.
Separated from her first husband by a
divorce obtained from the proper tribunals
in consequence of her conduct during their
residence in Paris (where Russians and
Greeks lead an inexpressibly dissolute life,
like all imitators, exaggersting French gal
lantry and with Oriental hearty she reas-
sumed her maiden name, and in the course
of time married a Swedish gentleman, Mons.
Macmillan Nilsson, an employee of the
diplomat, and she then becama Nine. Maxi
milan Nilsson.
They "receiyed" great many persons
every winter, and lived in eXceIlent stv1e
When this painful and most uniustifable
scene occurred at the Tuileries, all of the
poor woman's acquaintances hastened to call
upon her and assure her of their unabated
regard. She closed her house to company
Her health gave way. The doctors advised
her to go to Naples, with the hope that
balmy air would restore her. The hope was
vain: she continued to pine away with no
discernible disease, and tother day she died.

ing from her first marriage. '.-
