Dolores sought the advice and assis-
lance Of her mothers friend, Captain
James. He was twenty seven years
of age, and ought to have been able
I, to give good and safe counsel. In
tears and despair she appealed to him
to save her from this detested mar
riage-a thing which he certainly did
most effectually by clipping with her
the next day himself The pair went
to ireland, to Capt James family,
where they had a great muss in trying
to get married. No clergyman could
be found who would marry SO young
a child without a mothers consent.
The captains sister put off to Bath 20
try and get the mothers consent. At
first she would not listen, but at last
good sense so prevailed, as to make
her see that nothing but evil and sor-
row could come of her refusal, and she
consented, but would neither be pres
ent at the wedding, nor send her bles-
sing. So in flying from that marriage
with CHASTITY and gouty old age, the
child lost her mother, and gained what
proved to be only the outside she'll of
a husband, who had neither brain
which she could respect, nor a heart
which it was possible for her to love.
The newly-married pair went back
to India, where the shell of husband
soon eloped with a friends Wife
Lola was then sent back to the Graz
gies in Scotland, bnt, on arriving at
London, refused to go to them, and
went to Fanny Kelly to learn to be an
actress. She spoke English too badly
for this, she says, SO she studied to
become a danseuse, and went to her
relations, the Montalvo family. in.
Spain. Thence she says she returned
to London, where in March 1843, she
made an unsuccessful debut as a Span
ish dancer, at her Maiesty's Theatre.
Before and after that debut, however,
she had danced on the stage of the
heatre de la Porte Saint Martin. d
Subsequently to her English failure,
she danced at Dresden and Berlin,
and finally at Warsaw, st. Petersburg
and Munich. Returning to Paris she
became engaged to marry the eminent
Journalist, Dujarrier, but his death in
duel with NJ Beauvallon, prevented
it. Next she went to Bavaria, where
the old King Louis took great fan
cy to her, giving her palace, estate
and peerage, and making her his con-
fidential adviser in politics. His aim
was to drive the Jesuits from power,
but they were too strong for her, and
she. had to fly for her life, losing her
titles and estates =
/ The remainder of her life chiefly
passed in this country, is sufficiently
we'll known. She arrived here in
1850, and attempted dancing and
singing without much success In
1857 she hit upon what was indeed
| golden vein-sbe became a lecturer,
and certainly the matter and manner
of her discourse were alike admirable.
A few months ago she was attacked
with paralysis which ended in death
The cause of this attack remains to be
/ related, and we shall mention it here.
When Lola went to California as an
actress, she engaged an agent. This
gentleman was q married man, with
two children, and seeing him unhappy
in their abse ice, she presented him
with sufficient money to bring them
and their mother on. Shortly after
their arrival the husband died. Lola
then adopted the widow and orphans
educating the latter at Mrs. VIII
lard's seminary at Troy. An officer
in the Uuited States Navy fell in love
with one ofthese girls, and Lola lit
orally acting IN loco PARENTS, ap-
proved of his suit. During her late
visit to England the marriage took
place. So HW aa
| Lola did not again encounter her
protege, until a recent period, when
she met her walking down Broadway,
in company with a lady of the highest
ton. With her usual impulse, Lola
rushed to her young friend, literally
the child Of her charity-as if to en-
brace her The young lady eoldly
drew back and said, Madam, / do
