note, In English, written and signed by Ad-
elina Patti, wherein she inyokes the iuterren-
tion Of British Justice AGAINST her family-to-

brother~in-law. Adelina complains that she
has seen every penny of her earnings, amount
ing to more than one hundred thousand dol
lars, swallowed up by the said Patti and Stra-
kosch. This, however, is but small matter,
compared with another exercise Of parents

once agreed to The arrangement, in case the
young mans family consented. The young
mans Emily did consent, but the lady's faith

all correspondence, and allowed no inter
yicw between the betrothed and her lover.

under this ty1anny, and to be placed in the
tutelage Of the Court Of Chanccry during the
seyen months remaining before she becomes
Of age. She declares, at the same time, that
she has no intention Of seeking any pecuniary
return from her father and brother-in-law, bnt
that she freely abandons to them what they
have 20 unceremoniously grabbed.
