tOcracy of France. The beautiful and
wealthy daughters of our rich NOR
chants and planters have made easy
conquests of the highest titles ~
France. The name of our Louisiana
Princesses, Marquises, Duchesses and
Countesses is legion.
Not long ago there was an announce.
ment of brilliant event of this char
acter in the marriage of the grand-
daughter of that famous old LAWYER
John X. Grymes, who died at the head
of the bar i'm this city in 1855 in nc
tual destitutien, to the son OF the Duke
of Nallambrosa, the inheritor of titles
too difficult to spell and too elaborate
for recital: who is also the successor to
numerous castles and palaces, and a
vast array of historical and ancestral
renown. This brilliant incident fol-
lowed close upon like event of an
equally sensational character. the
marriage of the daughter of
an eX.merchant of this CITY,
and granddaughter of an old drug
gist, to the inheritor of the title
and glory of that illustrious figure
in the history of France, Due de Rich
ellen. Antedating these brilliant
events in the high social circles of
France, have been the intermarriages
of the daughters of the families of the
Montgomery's the Pontaibas, the
Slidells, the Miltenbergers, the Lapi-
ces, the Bosques, and other noted fam
lilies in this city, with the Rochefou-
calds, Montmorencies, the De Choi-
seuls, the Montgomeries, and others
of the highest rank of the old aristoc-
racy created by and identified with
the Bourbon dynasty of France.
Philosophy and republican sim
plicity may be provoked
by these incidents into grave disquis-
tons upon the appropriateness, the
policy and eventual felicity of such
marriages. We have no desire to en-
gage in such disquisition, nor are we
prepared to embark in q tilt against
so deep-rooted propensity and ten
dency of human nature to elevate their
social and personal consequence,
through titles and associations with
conspicuous names and historic char
acters. But of this we are quite conf
dent, that this apparent concession to
legitimatism and absolutism in sons
and daughters of this republic has only
a social significance, and does not inn
ply any surrender of that true republi-
can sentiment which resists and rejects
all those political ideas and tendencies
and dogmas which are casually regarded
as included in the designations oil
Bourbonism and aristocracy.
