Three American Peeresses.
CAREER OF THREE FAMOUS BALTI
MORE BELLES.
The " three American peeresses "
in question were three young ladies
of Baltimore, grand daughters of
Chas. Carroll, of Carrollton who
was generally regarded at the time
when the Declaration of Jndepea
dence was signed aa the wealthiest
of the American rebels. He came
lawfully by his rebellious tenden
cies, at least, for he was of Irish
blood, and there some 'tales of
grandfathers' in his family history
that would not discredit bailiff bast
ing Galway herself. But that is
not now to the point. He had
been educated in England and he
had very early and in trying cir
cumstances proved himself to posses
the spirit and determination which
made him a leading figure in the
revolution. He had two daughters,
one of whom married Mr. Caton,
an Englishman of Lincolnshire, if
we mistake not, but a citizen of
Baltimore, and the other Mr. Good
loe Harper.
Mrs. Caton had four daughters,
all famous for their beauty, and
three of these young ladies even
tually became British peeresses'
mainly through the dauntless social
arubi'ion of their number, Miss
Marianne Caton, who married
early in life Mr. Bobert Patterson,
of Baltimore, the son of a North of
Ireland merchant, Tvho had settled
in this country and acquired what
in those day3 was regarded as a
very great fortune, llobert Pat
terson's sister, Elizabeth, married
Jerome Lonaparte, the youngest
brother of Napoleon, who, after
carrying her across the Atlantic to
Portugal, leit her there to find
her way as best she could
to England, and eventually,
at the command of his brother, sub
mitted to an illegal and unrighteous
divorce from her, and married again
a princess of Wurtemberg. This
was a great blow, no doubt, to the
Patterson family, but it is not quite
correct to represent Robert Pat
terson while in Europe as 'bothered
beyond measure with the affairs of
his sister, his slippery brother in
law and the angry lirst Consul.
The "angry First Council "
gave nimselt very little trouble
about the Pattersons, beyond order
ing his worthless brother to drop
the whole family and to insult his
wife (which he obediently did) by
offering her sixty thousand francs
a year to give him up and go home.
After the fall of Napoleon, Mr. and
Mrs. llobert Patterson went to
Paris. They were accompanied by
Mrs. Patterson's younger sisters,
Elizabeth and Louisa Catherine.
They were all beautiful, and Paris
at that time was full of military,
diplomatic and royal personages
deenlv devoted to the worship of
beauty. Foremost among these
alike in renown and in gallantry
was tne
Duke of Wellington,
the friendship of the
Thanks to
conqueror, Mrs. Patterson
and her sisters went everywhere
and saw everything. A Patisian
records tliat at the first grand bail-
I . S - .
fc iveQ b Vlli tO ttie
allied sovereigns the Patterson
party, were the only ordinary mor
tals invited, and that Mr. llobert
Patterson, being tired of standing
behind his chair with the rest of
the company, created a decided
sensation by pulling his chair out
and sitting dovm in it, before the
royal personage with sound of trum
i pets and the flinging wide open of
double doors had made their ap
pearance.
Two years atterwards, in loJU,
Miss Louisa Caton married one of
tho Duke of Wellington's aidessdes
camp, Col. afterwards Sir Felton
Elwell Bathurst-Hervey, Bart. Sir
Felton Bathurst-Hervey, committed
suicide under painful circumstances
two years alter his marriage, and
in 1828 his widow married the
Marnuess of Carmarthen, who
nauv became Duke of Leeds. Mrs,
-r,,. ij-l -j
iSODert rauerson naa oeecme a wiu
ow after a few years her brilliant
adventures in Paris and returning to
England married in 1825 the Duke
of Wellington's elder brother, Johu
Quincy Adam'3 friend and classical
correspondent, the Marquess WoIh
lesey. Lord Wellesey was a etatess
man and a scholar of no mean merit.
He filled many offices in England,
was twice ford lieutenant of Ireland,
and a3 Earl of Mornington was for
seven years viceroy of India, from
1798 to 1S0.5, during which timo
his brother Arthur laid the foun
dations of his great fame as a sol"
dier, and
Far away,
Against the myriads of Assaye,
Clashed with his fiery few and won.'
But Lord Wellesley had rather
vague notions, of domestio life, like
many others of his rank. He lived
iui " . .
lady,
Mile. Itoland who, how
ever as not 'a ballot dancer pre.
Ciseiy anu uy ur iiau uaugii'
ters. He afterwards married Mile
Roland. Both of his daughters
married well, one becoming Lady
Atherton and the other Lady
Abdy. Lady Abdy, how
ever, prefeered Bentinck to her
spouse, Sir William; ran away with
him, was divorced, and married the
man of her choice, by whom she
became the mother of the preasent
heir of the Dukedom of Portland.
The Marquess died in 1842, leav
ing his second and American wife
in such narrow circumstances that
she became a royal pensioner. In
1836 .the third Miss Caton, Eliza-,
beth, by that time a decidedly
mature young lady, if not fat, yet
fair and not far from forty, married
a sexagenarian widower, Jerning
hem, Lord Stafford: And thus it
was that there came to be at one
time on the rolls of the British
peerage three American sisters, all
of them peeresses of Great Britain.
Whether the game was worth the
candle, who shall say ? But how
does it happen that a Baltimore
newspaper tells us 'the Bayards of
Delaware inherit much of their
talent from the younger daughter
of Charles Carroll of Carrollton,
who married Robert Goodloe Ham
per.' If they do it must be in some
marvellous manner that would make
Garter Kin- atArms scratch his
wig. The Bayards of Delaware
we mean these talents have so long
brightened the high sphere in which
they move have no more to do
with the Carrolls of Baltimore than
they have with the Capulets and
Montagues. Huguenots by origin,
Philadelphiaas by settlement, and
Delawarians by translation, their
talents and patriotism come from
other springs. The blunder arises
doubtless from the marriage of Mr.
Richard H. Bayard, an elder broth
er of the Delawarian senator, with
Miss Carroll, of Philadelphia, not
Baltimore. 2V. Y. World.
From the New York Trihune.
Southern
Summer Resorts.
Among the descriptions of water
ingplaces which fill the colutms of
the newspapers, we call especial at
tention to those in the South. They
commend themselves to our explor-
arc , n f n now onnial nnr? nofnrol

when the New York belle and Phili

down to the White Sulpher or
Berkeley in August and mingled
with the Lees, Marshalls, Cabells,
and Peytons were ended and tor.

tion has arisen on eitner side that
knows not Joseph or his ways. The
old intercourse may seemed a trivial
matter : there were a few weeks

The New York Herald, comment
ing on tne treatment oi Jenereon
Davis br. the people of Winnebasro I
county, Illinois, and by the Grand
Army of the Republic, masnanimous-
ly and truthfully vindicates Mr. Davis
as follows :
If Jefferson Davis is an unwelcome
guest at a Northern agricultural fair
then no other Southerner who fought
in the war can be welcomed. We do
not see where the members of the
Grand Army of the Eepublio draw
the line between Jefferson Davis and
General Longstreet, unless in this I
tnat Air, Davis preferred to cherish I
the convictions with which he enter I
ed the rebellion, while General Long-
street has accepted the doctrines of
trfrS bhoanP"tyV MI" Dayi8,ra8
no more responsible for the rebellion
in the South than any one of a thoS
sand other men. In fact, before the
war, wnue the question of secession
was more moderate of the Southern
leaders. There were twenty mem
bers and Senators in the Congress
which preceded the rebellion more
aotive than Mr. Davis in bringing
about hostilities and more responsk
ble for the result. Mr. Davis and
his colleagues in that Congress fol
lowed public opinion in the South,
and did not lead it. Mr. Davis was
put at the head of the Confederacy
Bimply because he had more charac-
ter than most of the Southern leaders.
Even as it was the Confederate Con
gress almost elected Mr. Toombs, of
ueorgia. xne election of JJavis was
the expression of a conservative sen
timent even in the Southern Confed
eracy. As President of the Confede
racy Mr. Davis did his duty as well
as he knew how. He did what any
other Southern leader would have
done in the same place. He stood by
uU r, H lUo uu. tvuwu ub ieu
he lell with the Confederacy. There
fore, to deal with Mr. Davis as in any
way more responsible for the rebell
ion than any one of the conspicuous
men of the South before the war is lo
do him a great injustice and ourselves
a discredit.
And of the Grand Army of the Ke-
jpublio the Herald says: "This or
ganization is known to be political
and secret in its character. Its mem-

of the North and South have forgot

makes the mischief that is taking
place in Illinois, The business of its
leaders seems to be to tan the expus
ing name oi civil wratn ana diligent

Illinois, their rejection of the kind

do more toward exasperating the

there will bo issued from tho press

The title will give a hint as to tho

K a tma narrative of the exnloits
and adventures of Madame Loveta
Janeta Velazquez, a lady who is
better known to Confederate offi
cers and soldiers under her psen
donym of Lieutenant Harry T.
Buford. The announcement that
the valorous woman who was known
during the war as Lieutenant Bui
ford is about to give tho world a
fun and complete narrative of her
pvfrar.rd r.flrv carper w L we are
confident, be received with pleasure
by innumerable readers both South
and North, for Lieutenant Harry
T. Buford is equally well know in
both sections ot tho country. More
than once women have attempted
to win fame on the battle-field, but
no heroine of whom we have any
record has passed through such
varied and such thrilling experience
as Madame Velazguez. Disguised
as a Confederate officer, she was an
active participant in some of the
war, and she succeeded m winning
the enthusiastic commendation of
both friend and foe by her gallantry
in action ana uy ner uaunticss
couraga in the facc,of extraordinary
perils. She was in New Orleans
during the Beast's
administration,
with Southern
I and co-oporated
agent3 in all the Northern cities.
It will, no doubt, be very interest

South, and will command a largo

An Anecdote cf Webster.
Just before Lafayette's last visit
to America. Webster was one ot a
fishing party m Massachusetts Bay.
IIq had been selected to deliver the
welcoming speech to the great
Frenchman on his approaching
visit, and during the piscatory oc-

of solemn rapture. 'V enerable
