Aug. Bclmont's Family History
The Romance Of the New York Banker
Early Life

The Romance Of the New York Bankers
Early Life.
The marriage of August Belmont to
Miss Perry daughter Of the Comotlorc)
was in it's day deeply interesting social
event. Prior to that Belmont had no
standing. He was merely known in Wall
Street as agent for the l,othschilds, while
aside from his office he was merely IL fast
man, whose money went freely in the
most disrcputablc manner. He still car
rics his marks Of this early career in a
lame leg, the result of a pistol shot re-
ccivcd in duel occasioncd, it is SAID, by
an intrigue. Up to that time, indeed,
Belmont was considered rather an advcn-
turcr. His true name was ''Schonl,crg,"
which he changed to Belmont on his ar
rival here, and his family connections
were unknown Hence for New York
belle to marry sucl, Il man could not hut
create sensation. The wedding was
preceded by the conveyance to the bride
of fifth avenue establishment and $780,
600 in tlrst-class securities, and it was not
among the creme de III creme.
In this manner the Jew Schonbcrg,
having lenounced his Hebrew preferences,
became leader in the more uaslling clc-
mcnt of New York society. lie is the
only Jew who has shown a special love
for horses, and his name has long been
identified with the American turf. His
son, Perry Belmont, is one of the leaders
of young society, and recently his daugh-
ter was married in good style, the ccrc-
mony being one Of the most brilliant ever
witnessed in Newport
Belmont is one Of the large number OF
Jews who has rcnounccd his national
faith, and yet hc retains some Of the an
cient customs. His wife attends the
Episcopal Church, but when death en-
ters his family he obcys the old Hebrew
custom Of closing his picture gallery Tor
year. He is now about three scorc-and-
ten, and his wealth is estimated ut q
million. Rather strange, though he has
been Il Wall street man for so many years,
he has never been drawn into stock spec
ulations No one has ever of Bclmont's
name in any ':corncr' or street operation
among bulls and bears. He has confined
himself closely to his original speciality,
and has built up an immense banking
business, which will be a grand inherit
ance for his sons. His married life has
been one of reputable character, and it
may be said in no case has the daughter
of Il naval officer done better than in the
instance above referred to.

Royalty in Calcutta.

Mr.. Young, of the New York Herald,
in his account of of the visit of Gen. Grant
to Calcutta, says:
The native gentlemen and princes OF
high rank were presented by the Niccroy
to Gen. Grant. Some of these names
were the foremost in India. Some were
deposcd princes, or descendants of de-
posed princes. Others were Brahmins of
high caste; some rich bankers and mer-
chants. The son of King Dude came
with his son. He has an effcminate,
weak face. On his head he wore head
dress shaped like a crown, and covered
with gold foil and lace. The King OF
Dude lives in Calcutta, on an allowance
of 100000 year. He does not come
near the Government House, partly be-
cause he is so fat that he cannot move
about, except in chair; more probably
because he is kind of state prisoner on
account Of his supposed sympathies with
the mutiny. The old king spends a good
share of his income in buying animals.
He has collection of snakes. and IS fond
Of peculiar kind of pigeon. 4 pigeon
with a blue eye will bring him good for
tune, and if one of his Brahmin priests
tell him that the possession Of such a
bird is necessary to his happiness, he
buys it. Recently he paid e.
900 for a pigeon on the advice of a holy
Brahmin, who it was rumorad, had an
interest in the sale. Not long since the
king made purchase Of tigers, and was
about to buy new and choice lot, when
the lieutenant governor intcrfcrcd, amp
said his majesty had tigers enough. My
admiration for the kingiy Office is so pro-
found that like it best in its eccentric
aspects, and would have rcjsiced to have
seen so original a majesty. But his maj
esty is in seclusion with his snakes, his
tigers, his pigeons, his priests and his
women, and sees no one, and We had to
be content with seeing his son. The
prince seemed forlorn with his bauble
crown, his robes and his gems, and hid
behind pillars and in corners of the room
and avoided the general conversation.
Another noted prince was the descendant

A man, all haste in his homeWard fight
Along the sidewalks picked his darkcn'd way,

His stole was in his pockets, and his pace
Grew slower as the gas-lamps mockd his
sight,
Whylcs shyned the stars upon his awkward

Romance in Real Life.

Odessa has just itncssed the attempt
ed suicide of Nine P.shkoff, one of the
most talented of modern Russian novel
lists. Her career, rs skctchcd by the
Golos, is singularly varied and full Of in
tcrcst. Her father was Bahrin or serf-
proprietor the old school, the owner of
seven thousand souls, and a descendant Of
the ancient Tarter princes He was OF
an exceedingly despotlc temperament,
and brought up his daughter according
to masculine principles, teaching her to
Wrcstlc, to fence, to use the sword and
revolver, and to ride astridc on horseback,
like a man.
At the age of sixteen she wrote her first
novel, ''Thc Princess yaira GIcnski,"
which at once took the public taste, and
made her name famous among the elite
of Moscow. A year later her father mar
ricd her otthand to a man she did not sec
previous to the night of the bctrothal,
and it is not surprising to learn in consc-
quence that at nineteen she was already
divorced and living alone IN her fathers
Moscow mansion. Here she created one
of the most fashionable salons of the old
capital, and in the very zenith of her pop
ularity married Pashkott, the millionaire,
and retired for twelvcmonth to his min
ing estates in the Urals. Her second
husband was then appointed Russian
agent in Egypt, and she accompanied
him thithcr, and before long had the
rare and singular honor Of dining alone
with the viceroy. firing of leading the
Russian colony at Cairo, she set out on Il
journey through Syria and Palestine, not
combining herself, like ordinary lady tour
lists to the main roads, but roam ing
alb out in the most unsettled districts.
On her return to the Mediterranean she
went on I; yachting cruise in the Lcvant,
visltsd Italy, dartcd off afrcsh to Mt.
Lebanon, aud equally unexpectedly made
her appearance at the end Of a year at
Mentonc.
She now wrote Il lumber of novels, and
became corresponding member Of the
French Geographical society, IL conncc-
ton which led her after while to pro-
coed on a journey round the world. This
terminated in the winter. and about the
same time she lost her colossal fortune.
| Separated from her second husband, for
saken by her friends and reduced to cx-
tremc poverty, she retired a few days ago
| to room in one of the mcancst hotels in

What an Old Man Has Noticed.

I have noticed that all men are honest
when we'll watched.
I have noticed that urses will hold
pennies as we'll as pounds.
I have noticed that silks, broadcloth
and jewels are often bought with other
peoples money.
l have noticed that whatever is. is
right, with few exceptions the left eve
and left leg and the left side of a plum
pudding.
I have noticed that the prayer of the
selfish man is, "Forgivc us our debts"
while he makes everybody that owes him
pay to the utmost farthing.
1 have noticed that he who thinks
every man rogue, is certain to see one
when he shaves himself, and he ought,
in mercy to his neighbor. to surrender
the rascal to justice.
