Trinity's New Purchase.
NEW loRK, Nov. l2,lsS9.
The gaze of the metropolitan
public this week hps been fustcn-
cd manly on a couple of events
that were taking pllce across the
Atlautlc. 1t was not that any
great consequences were tG br at-
tached TO the marriage of Two
American helress to n couple Of I
broken-down European princes;
but the actual celebration of Que
and the failure Of the ether has /
served To entertain Us n an adj |
mirable manner. In the llat2-
teldt-lluntrngton alliance It hard
to see any lcdeemng fcatuic from
either an American or u moral
standpoint. llatzfcldt seems to
be simply a "rale" with the title
of prince, and MIR. Huntington
has bought this tile for So, 1000,
600 and his daughter. | venture
TO say that its about the poorest
bargam the great railway king
ever made. In regard 10 thu other
case, Miss Caldwell has suddenly
jumped n the eyes OF the publlc,
from The sublime 10 the ledlcu-
lnus. From giving fortune Of
$500, 900 to found a great umvcr-
sily to this amusing attempt 20
storm the stooghold of mock roy
atty aud galn almlttanc' thereto
by the back stan is quite q step.
Prince Murat, who by The way, is
old enough to he Miss Caldwell 5
father, refused to close the bar
gain because he thought an allow
anco Of 100000 Il year was tou
bcggnrIy. Mss Caldwell would
not mi her bid, and so til,
Prince is N the market still. The
Young men of Amcrlcp can now
rejoice. There Is "no loss on on
