al and mental attractions. Ma,ii-

admire, but seldom marry them IN
less there is cash attached.
Comparatively few Of the European
blueblooded' gentry are men of
fortune. They expect to get their
fortunes with their wives, and if they
are unable to pick up a woman of
ariatocratic lineage who has bank
account of suitable size, they do not
dsdain to marry "a commoner."
And the rich female commoners
abroad generally have too much
sense to marry impecunious sprigs
of nobility; it is America that fur
nishes victims for the hymeneal trap.
A Philadelphia lady who has resided
for many years in Rome, and who is
one of the best newspaper cores
pondents in that city, told a st.
Louis gentleman that in Southern
Italy young nobleman with titles
longer than their purses are taught
by fond parents to be constantly on
the watch for rich American women,
and that so strictly do they obey
parental instructions that a wealthy
maiden or widow from this side Of
the ocean is almost certain to be
caught before she has been on Ital-
ian soil six months. The informa-
ton was also given that in nine cases
out of ten the marriage proved I'M
happy, unless the wife was willing to
do as the husband did; seek for
pleasure away from home.
The ambition for rank and title is
so deeply rooted in "our best So
ciety" that all attempts to eradicate
it by republican arguments are use
less. But those American ladies
who cross the Atlantic in search
of aristocratic orange blossoms,
ought to- do so with their eyes
open. They ought to know that any
foreign nobleman who has wealth
can, and will, choose wife from
his own social sphere, and that the
nobleman who, being poor, marries
wealthy American wife, feels that
she is abundantly rewarded for her
money and her love by the position
he has given her. To him, q men,
Der of "the privileged Glass;" who
can trace his pedigree back to some
princely scoundrel or royal strumpet,
she is and always must lie plebeian,
coming, as she does, from only plain
and honest stock. Their tastes,
their ideas, their principles, are
usually as different as their educa-
ton aud early associations; and the
consequences is that, unless special
" favored by an Overruling Provi-
dence, the honeymoon has hardly
gone before the bride wakes up 10 a
gilded misery. Hundreds OF fair
