Some years since the daughter OF
Prince Henry of Reuss- -GreiZ, "A small
German principality in the middle OF
Germany, became deeply attached
To n young subaltern who command
ed the annual contingent furnished
the army of the King of Prussia. Oh
course all thought of marrying him
with the consent of tie Prince was
out of the question ; but it was ar
ranged that the young Lieutenant
should resign his position in the
army, and together they would es-
cape To the United States. Embark
ing at Antwerp they came to New
FORK, and We're married there But
being young and without experience
in the ways of the world their little
| means were soon exhausted, and
they found themselves in strange
land, friendless and in poverty.
They were afraid to communicate
with any of their countrynen, lest
the circumstances or their flight
should become known end them
selves arrested.
Unacquainted with our laws, and
supposing that the authority of their
petty prince was as potent here as
among the grain fields of their ma
tive land, they sought obscuritv and
shrunk from their names and station
being blaZoned abroad. At last,
pushed to the extreme of poverty,
the husband, who was an excellent
musician, obtained i situation in the
orchestra atNiblo'sGarden but learn
ing that inquiries had been made by
the Prussian Consul of their presence
III the city, he threw up his engage
ment and came South, and in the
summer of 1867 fell victim to the
yellow fever. His wife, now left
alone, and reduced to the extreme
verge of poverty, applied for and
obtained situation in a beer saloon
in this city, where she now is.

A Lawyers Romance.

Roswell NJ. Field, the "Nestsr O,
the Missouri bar" "a lawyer whose
entire lack of ambition lost the fame
his rare and great ability might have
won, died in st. Louis on Monday
He had a peculiarly romantic epi-
sode in his early manhood. He was
the son of General Martin Field. OF
Newfane, VT, and practiced law
awhile in the courts of his native
county. His abandonment of his
lucrative practice and removal from
the State, to which he never return
ed, was Occasioned by an unfortunate
bestowal OF his affections, under cir
cumstances, rarely, If ever pa talleled.
He fell in love with an accomplished
young lady in Windsor, and though
she was engaged to another gentle
man, succeeded i'll winning her af-
fections and inducing her to Join him
In u secret marriage, which was to
be followed by cohabitation in case
the consent of her parents could be
obtained, but otherwise to be void
She failed to gain that consent and
as soon as.he.could be..summoned from
Boston was publicly married to her
first love, who joined her i'm a suit in
chancery against Mr.. Field for the
dissolution Of the secret marriage
Both she and her suit survived her
husband, but at last she won 1t in
the Supreme Court, aid the casa is
reported at length in the thirteenth
vol ne of Vermont reports. Mr..
Fielc felt sorely aggrieved at the re-
suit and issued a pamphlet in which
he sought to vindicate himself be
fore the world. Afterward, however,
ne married another lady with whom
he lived happily. She has been dead
several years and four children, we
think, survive them both. Years
after the strange suit, the lady W whom
he flrst loved and then fought Sc
