OBITUARY.



Henry du Vergier Marquis de LarOeheiacdue-
I'm n Senator of the French Empire, died at the
village of Pecq, in the department of the Seine
es-()ise, on January 2. He descended from
fanily noted for its legitimist convictions, mis-
,Sother being the heroine of the Vendee and
his uncle Henry Larochejacquelin, the chief of
the Yendean war against the first French re-
public. He was born in 1904, and was created
= Peer of France at the early age of eleven but
had not taken his seat in the Upper House
when the July revolution of 1880 broke out.
Unwilling to serve the July dynasty in any
capacity, he resigned his peerage. In 1912 he
was elected to the Chamber of the Deputies,
where he was the most violent member of
the Ieglumist opposition In his attacks upon
the Government He disagreed, however, with
the bulk OF his party and the Count of Cham
bOrd, in demanding direct appeal to the popu-
lar vote. This estrangement grew wider after
the proclamation OF the republic and the esta-
blishment of the empire, which Larochejacque-
i'm accepted as the expression of the popular
vote, though, as far as his personal predilec-
tiOns we're concerned, he pretended to remain
a Legitimlst. In 1852 he was named by the
Emperor Senator and the acceptance of this
position by him created great sensation among
aOt prominent part in the debates of the Senate,
and was, in particular, conspicuous for his un-
compromising defense of the Temporal Powers.
Miss Mile Cavondish.
The death record of the week contains the
name of Miss Millie Cavendish. This young
actress made her first appearance in the United
States, on the occasion of the first performance
Of The Black CTook at Niblo's Garden. Her
archness and vivacIty as an actress made very
pleasing impression at that time, and since then
she had steadily grown in popular favor. Her
death occurred on the 23d instant, and her
remains we're yesterday buried at Greenwood
