The best known and most famous hostes ses
in Paris has just breathed her last In pow
erty and obScurty at Geneva, says the New
York Recorder. She was the wife of NJ.
Emile de Girardin. the most celebrated and
powerful journalist and statesman of the
second empire.
A natural daughter of the late Duke Of
Nassau, and possessed of marvellous beauty,
GiraTdin married her in 1857. settling upon
her fortune of !, 100000 francs on the day
OF the wedding. Barely three years after
ward she left. in fit of anger, her husband,
who was thirty years her senior. aud 1t was
only some tine later that mutual friends
succeeded in effectng a reconciliation.
The birth OF a daughter served to reunite
in a measure the Unmatched couple, bnt

the arms Of its g0dmotheT, the Empress

came so distant that they merely met at din

Their house in the Rue la PerOuse was
known as being the most hoSpitable and
sumptuous in all Paris. 1t stands just op-
pOsite TO the Palais de CASTLE, owned By ex-
Queen Isabella of Spain.

the Franco German war, and 1t was the
birth OF this infant which brought about
the final and defnite separation for De
Girardin refused to acknowledge himself as
the father Of the little girl. and turned both
mother and child out OF his house.
Nine. de Grardin retired to another quar-
ter of Paris. where the child In question died
shortly. On the demise of NJ. de Girardn
himself her alimOny ceased, and since then
she has subsisted on no one knows how.
She was confirmed morphomaniac, and
an impression prevails that her death was an
act Of suicide by means Of the drug to which
she was addicted.

Venice, ''Queep City of the Sea-" is the

Perhaps no modern author has described
its salient features in few words any more
graphically than Ruskin, who says the Lom-
bard and the Arab, opposite in their char
acteT and mission, came from the north and
from the south, the glacer-torrent and the
lava-stream; they met and cOntended over
the wreck of the Roman Empire; aud the
very center Of the struggle, the point of
pause of both, the dead water of the oppo-
site edGies, charged with embayed fTag-
ments Of the Roman wreck, is Venice"
For 600 years, while the Government was
an elective monarchy, the power of Venice
was continually on the increase; but her
subsequent government by mobiles, under
the wings Of king" consumed the fruits Of
her former energies and she expired. Now
that the long deferred hope of its citizens is
granted and Venice is an integral part of a
free and united Italy, it is possible that she

by Americans in England and France and
the hosDitlble way in which the English
