THE ARCHDUKE or AUSTRIA AND TIE PRINCESS
sTFPH ANIE-AN ELOPEMENT IN HIGH iIFE-THE
AMERICAN MINISTER.
fBY CABLE TO THE TBIBUNEI
PARIS Saturday, March 13, 1880.
The marriage of the Archduke Rudolph, Prince
Imperial of Austria and Princess Stephanie. of Bel
gium, will be an important European event, as 1t
will tend to bring the lastnamed country into the
ring of States which Bismarck is quietly forming
around France. The Austro German policy. through
this marriage will be paramount at Brussels, as it
is at Madrid and the Court Of England will be
drawn thereby more strongly to the side toward
which 1t leans.
Princess Stephanie often runs into Paris. incOg-
nito. with King Leopold. She made flying visit to
the British Embassy the last time Queen Victoria
was there. She was then tall, growing girl. long
nosed, blonde, and not pretty. but she was happy
looking maiden. l saw a likeness in her of the EN-
nrcss Charlotte. her grandfather Leopold. and the
Duc de Ncmours her great-uncle The education
of the future Empress was directed by Madame
Devterehcn. well known in Paris kindergartens
The Archduke Rudophs Ganc6e is an aston
ishingly good linguist musician and equestrian
and is said 10 be poetic. She has artistic sensibll-
ties and sound Judgment. Her girlhood was passed
In the ROYAL chateau in Ardennes. Growing too
rapdly. she was ordered by her doctor to take the
mountain air and horseback exercise. The treat
ncnt succeeded, and the Princess is now fully de-
veloped and strong. Eventually she will inherit
splendid patrmony.

Not fancying Saxon Princess, the Austrian Crown
Prince thought ne might as well be directed by

tional Catholic and highly educated Emperor Ru-
