serves to be, with contempt, and the

Our Countrywomen Abroad

Our Countrywomen Abroad.
New York Ledger.
They who derive their impressions
from superficial writers get very
false con ception of the role actually
played by American women in
Europe. AS q matter of fact, one
American young woman became the
wife of an ex-king of Portugal; many
of her feminine compatriots have
married French mobiles belonging to
the Fouboarg st. German, while
othes have married Roman Princes
and Neapolitan dukes.
Not q Few American women capti-
waited members of the English peer
age; three have become duchesses,
namely, Miss Cation, who became
Duchess of Leeds; Miss Yzanga, who
is the present Duchess of Manches-
ter, and Mrs. Hammersly, who, be-
fore her first marriage, was Miss
Price, and who now is the Duchess
of Marlborough. Then there have
been at least two marchionesses, to-
wit, the Marchioness Wellesley, who
was Miss Cation (sister of the Ouch
ess of Leeds) and The Karchioness of
Anglesey. who was Miss Minnie
King, of Georgia.
II we consider influence and oppor-
tunity, perhaps we should give the
palm to the Countess Won Waldersee,
who was Miss Lee, of New York,
and who is now the most powerful
parsonage at the court of Berlin.
Gen. Count Won Waldersee is the
present head of the German army,
but it is believed that. without the
assistance of his American wife, he
would never have succeeded Count
Won Moltke, as the chief of the gen.
eral staff-much less have succeeded
in endorsing an opponent so redoubt-
able as Bismarck.
In view of such examples it seems
unreasonable to assume that Ameri-
can girls can not hold their own in
any station. Whether they who
have gained the right to wear straw
berry leaves or the power to make
and unmake Ministers are any hap.
pier than they would have been had
they stayed at home and married
American citizens is a very different
question.
