her doting admirer. Herr Wagner, whose music
perfection itself to the ears OF his royal frend,
had large sums presented him for the composing
divers operas, the establishment OF singing
academies and, it is said, variety OF objects of
partly artistic, pBrtlygpolitcal character
Against both lavorites the court, no less than
the people, eventually rebelled. The court, be-
cause IT has been traditionally accustomed to
suffer no one but a nobleman, or a tried bureau
crat, to come into close and familiar contact
with the sovereign; the people, because the in
habitants of southeastern Bavaria-the Bava-
rians proper-have been always distinguished
by strong provincial feeling, and are ex-
tremey jealous OF foreigners be they Prussians
or Spaniards, partaking OF the good things OF
their country. Herr Wagner is from Dresden,
and accordingly regarded as much an intruder
as ever was Lola MOntezlherself. The animosity
OF the Court, supported as IL was principally by
the conservative section of the people, natt.
rally tendedto pitch him as well as his fair pre-
cessor against the reacdonary party, which
now, as eighteen years ago, Teigns supreme IN
the palace and cabinet of the Kingdom. Thus
what was originally a mere personal attachment
of the King speedily became political eonnec-
ton In either case, and Ludwig ii, being so very
young, allowed himself rs easily to be carried
away by his feelings aud idiosyncracies as Lud-
wig J. who was too old and too infatuated to
preserve the necessary seltcommand. Encou-
ragged by indulgence, Lola MonteZ at length pre-
sumed to attempt the expulsion of the Jesuits
while Herr Wagner, it appears, declaring yainst
Herr Won Phstermeister, tue omnipotent Secre-
tary of the King, only dissuaded his royal
patron from the appointment of some reac.
tiOnary officials. But the Court proved too much
for both of them. The priests denounced the
one no less than the other. The clerical papers
hinted at the Church being possibly en-
dangered by their presence in the capital.
The people began 10 murmur and the
Ministers to look grave, At last the old King
was coerced by open violence in the spring OF
lS48, and the young King Obliged to~yield to
serious remonstranCe day or two aeo. Lola
Montez was chased awav by an infuriated mob,
aud had to hv Tor her life; Herr Wagner as the
Bavaran C6iolGt Gazette Just announces in
solemn terms, has been requested by the King to
start on journey, and absent himself for q lew
months. So Bavaria is quiet again, and peace
has returned to her homes and her fire.
sides 1t is singular, but highly characteristic
OF the state OF the country, that on the mere
ground OF their receiving the Kings patronage
there should be such striking similarity between
the fate OF ballet girl and a gentleman who,
whatever may be said against his music, is a re.
spectacle man. and a man OF ability.
TROUBLES OF AN AMERICAN LADY WHO WENT TO
EUROPE TO GET ENAMELLED.
At the Marlborough street Police Court, Lon
don, December II, a wetdressed woman made
an application to Mr. Tyrwhitt. She said she
had come TO this country to consult Madame
Rachel, having seen, when in America, and also
since she had been in London, certain adver-
usements addressed. to ladies'. She had called
on Madame Racheland had given her diamond
ring worth twenty pounds, and thirSy-three

Tor her, and Madame Rachel refused to return
the property. She was to oblIterate all the
marks On the applicants face lett by smallpox.
She gave her bottle OF something like white
wash, which had no effect.
Mr.. Iyrwhitt-Why did you give Madam Rachel
so much money?
Applicant paid what was demanded OF me.
The agreement was that the money should be
paid in advance The papers were full oil recon-
mendations of Madame Rachel, and | thought
everything was right, so | came to England.
Mr.. Tyrwhitt directed that the applicant
should have a summons.
Just before the magistrate quilted The bench,
Mr.. Say er, from the office Of Mr.. Edward Lewis,
entered the court and sad as he was informed,
a summons had been granted AGAINST Madame
Rachel, and as it was not unlikely some notice
OF the matter would appear in the public papers
he hoped he IlighG be allowed to say a few words
for the purpose of putting the matter in a more
correct light, He would only state that tne
applicant was lady who represented herself TO
be the wife of the American Consul. She had
recovered from an attack OF SMALLPOX, and had
applied to Madame Rachel TO remove the marks
She was to pay fl00, but had only paid five
Napoleons on account. Madame Rachel had
attended her for eight days, and the lady had
also three or four "Arabiann baths at Madame
Rachel's house, and Madame Rachel sent in her
bill, and last Thursday the lady called on
Madame Rachel in sucn a state of excitement
that it was necessary to call in the assistance of
the police.
MIR. Tyrwhitt remarked that sometimes very
large sums were obtained from persons who put
themselves in the hands OF advertisers. A sum
OF 200 had been obtained, he believed in one
instance. He had no control over the press, and
he thought it would be better to avoid discussion
until the summons was heard.
