LATEST ROMANCE. The London Globe
prints the following story
"a romapce in very high life ha: just been
brought to its last act. One Of the most noted
of the South German mobiles was the Prince OF
Thurm and Taxis He had been minister to the
late King of Bavaria, and his was aid-de-
camp to The present King. II is this son who is
the hero of the German romance. Long ago the
Lord of Burleigh chose his wife from the peas
antry, and King Cophetua swore q royal OATH
that q beggar msid should be his bridoi but
neither OF these traditional lovers went SO lar rs

WAS an obscure actress who fascinated him. and
for whom he was content to sacrifice every thing.

Prince of Thurm and Taxis, but plain bour-
geois, and he was to receive m annual allow
ance Of SOU forms. It light seem that such
COZ ditions would be impossible. The only an
swer is that they were e1scted, that the mar
rage did occur, and that the Prince descended
int plain NJ DE Fels. He hal, however, q very
fine TENOR voice and ve-y beautiful bride, and
he made his debut short time ago at the thea
tire at Zurich. The story 80 far reminds one OF

his own right but here the resemblance ceases

care very little for romantic sacrifices. NJ De
