Parib, December 22. The erand wodding of
tne ITinccss Anna Murat with tho Duke do
Mouchy came oir, according to programme, on
Monday laot in the private chapel of the Tuile
nc. If the secret nmtory of this marriage could
be known, I do not think the day was a joyous
one tor the parties most concerned. There were
a Bcrics of roost vexatious circumstances which
must have greatly dialed and tretted the Em
peror and Empress, as well as the bride and
bridegroom.
In the first place, the Klnjr and Queen of Por
tugal, who were ptavinp on a visit to tho Etmie
ror in the Pavilion Marsan of the Tuileries while
the ceremony was poirtg on. did not think tit to
grace cither the chapel or the wediling breakfast
with their prei-ence. The recent funeral ot the
King of Portugal's relation, tho Kiii(t of the Bel
gians, could not have been the reason Cor their
nKtmnsi niiH 4ni1iod Tin ti rVi Avniioa la nlldrrad
lA'CipoUl the First was burled on Saturday, aniL
UC IIV A V V I I J -ilVIP TT WEJ IllUIIIIUItlVU iu v-
ioicliig for tlie Recession of Leopold II, pursuant
to the old maxim, Leroi estrrwrt, vtve le roi I Eti
quette, therciove, really did not require the Kintr
i nd Quern of Portugal to weep by themselves on
the Jlondiiy, instead ol rejoicing with their im
perial hohts on such a momentous occasion as
that of a wedding in their family, solemnized
under their own immediate patronage. No, the
true reason lor thcr absence was that, sympa
thiiiiir with Prince Nnpoleon and Princess Clo
tildo, who detest the Biurets, and looking upon
the Duke c!e Mouchy as a Bcapeirrnce, they did
not choose to waive't heir royal rank and volun
teer to tit tend a wedding between parties whose
rmik was not, bitrh enough to render their pre
sence absolutely necessary.
The next slight which the Court of the Tuile
rios had to enduro was a very marked one from
Prince Napoleon mid t'rincess uiotildr, w ho, as
on known, is sister to yueen I'lx ot Portugal.
'riiice Napoleon crime to Pari" from Switzerland
on the morning of tho wedding; and, while it
was going on, tho King ot Italy's proud da'ihter
(tUotilde) tat by herself in the I'.ihus Koyal, and
Prince Napoleon was following the corpse of
Bixio, the old republican deputy, to the grave in
Jlont Parnate Cemetery. One of the Emperor's
objects in giviii'r his cousin Anna Murat to the
Duke de Mouchy was to ally himself to one of
the best old families in Prance; but the said old
family has done ils utmost to show that they
consider their relution in taking a Morat is mar
Tying beneath himself, and they have cut him ac
cordingly. The Duke de Noaillcs, who is the head of the
family of 'which Mouchy represents a younger
branch, not only rehired tn be one of the bride
groom's witnesses, but he loudly declares his in
tention to leave the whole of "his vast fortune
way from him, whereas be meant to make him
iis heir. Several Faubourg St. Germain cousins
of the Mouchy family, whom it was hoped to
draw to Court by an imperial alliance, have de
clined the bait, and openly profess their con
tempt for the connection. The Duke de Valen
eay was with difficulty prevailed upon to act as
one of Mouchy ' witnesses. Prince Alarc de
Ueauveau, who was to have been the other, was
prevented from coming by the sudden death of a
brother.
The Emperor has been so prodigal in wedding
presents to the bride that he is afraid to let the
public know the amount he has spent, particu
larly at a time when so much excitement pre
vails about the scheme lor raising money by de
priving the public ot the best part of the Luxem
bourg Gardens. The wedding trousseau was on
show for a day, but suddenly withdrawn in con
sequence of the remarks male; and severe com
muniques to the journals preclude them from
speculating on te subject. 1 1 is admitted that
the bride's jewels alone cost the tremendous
sum of $300,000, but the papers now say they
"Were all given her by her husband a statement
notoriously untrue. Tuesc glittering baubles,
o envied 'by the vulgar crowd, must be a poor
consolation to the Princess, supposing her to be
a sensible women, for the many drawbacks and
annoyances attending their marriage, some of
which I have glanced at above.
Poor Anna Murat has now only taken tho
Duke do Mouchy as a pis aMer because her
beauty is so sadly damaged by the terrible car
riage accident' in Switzerland last summer, that
all hope of petting a prince of a royal family for
her husband has been b iven up. iier hand has
been hawked about for the last seven years in
every court in Europe, without success, and in a
most tantalizing manner for her, and sue is now
getting fame. Personally she is a pleasing,
amiable woman, and it is to be hoped, in spite
of ail evil forebodings, that, after bo many trials
from disappointed iirnliition, she may meet with
domestic happiness. The bride and bridegroom
are now at Mouchy-le-Castel, the Duke's pro
perty near Fontainebleau, and receiving the
homage ot tenants and villagers. I forgot to say
that, among other vexations, she finds that in
stead of her husband being raised to princely
rank, as she had hoped, she has to lose rank her
self. She is now simply Duchess de Mouchy, and
not a princess ol the Imperial family.
I only just learn that Prince Napoleon and the
Princess Clotilde attended the grand dinner
given to the King and Queen of Portugal at tlie
Tuileries on Tuesday. Rumor9, however, con
tinue to be conflicting us to whether the Em
peror and his cousin have made up the serious
quarrel which oocurred between them in conse
quence of the Prince's speech in Corsica. 8ome
say he is going back to Switzerland directly:
others that he will stay in Pans for the winter,
nd will resume the Presidency of the Universal
Exhibition of 1867.
Fourhoises belonging to the King of Italy
were burned to death on the Lyons Railway, two
days ago. The groom in charge of them also lost
' his lite. It is supposed that he set tire to the
carriage by smoking in the horse-box where
there was straw.
There have been some serious students' rows
in the Quarter Latin this week, in consequence
of the expulsion from the Ecole de Medicine of
five medical students, accused of having made
revolutionary comments and atheistical speeches
at the Liege Congress. The legality ot their ex
pulsion for words spoken in a foreign countrv is
questioned by very eminent lawyers, and "the
point w ill be raised by appeal to the Council of
State. Meanwhile the students, both of the
legal and medical schools, sympathize with their
brethren. They accuse the Professors who
signed the decree of expulsion of haviug servilely
toadied the Government, and they will not hear
them when they come forward to lecture. The
schools have two or three times been cleared by
the police, and there is a talk of their being shut
up lor some months. A great many students are
in custody.
Yesterday the Correctional Police tried a Pro
fessor of Languages, thlrty-tlve years of age, for
taking part wit n the students during a tumult
and assaulting the police, and he was sentenced
to a month's imprisonment, although ho said the
police were the aggressors. A srudeat was tried
at the same time, and, being found guilty with
extenuating circumstances, was let off with, a
fine of 6D1. More triuls of the sort will follow in
quick fcuccesoion, aud the students' quarter U in
a st&te of great excitement. The Government
would have done much better to have let the
Liege students alone. They deny that they did
preach the wild doctrines attributed to them by
tho decree of expulsion; but, supposing they
did, that was no reason why, as long a thev be
haved quietly in tho schooh and conformed to
the rules, they should not be allowed to com-
?ilete their medical studies. On.this point there
an almost unanimous feeling in the Quartier
LatiTi.
General Schofleld has been, and, I believe, is
still unwell. Not having been seen about for tho
last few days, the French papers trumpelupa
story that he had gone to England; the truth is,
he has never budged from the Gerard Hotel.
I call your attention to a translation (ap
pended) of a paragraph in yesterday's Moniieur,
which, though given in the form of a corres
pondence from New York, was most certainly
composed la the foreign oiiiee in Paris since the
receipt of the President's message, and contains
the latest official views on the subject. The
cfiort to make out that there is nothing in the
doctrines of the messago incompatlbld with the
position France has assumed in Mexico, but l'l
conceals tho serious concern which the pernal
ot the message has produced at this Court. Ttie
paragraph in question Is to my mind preparatory
to an evacuation, w hich I doubt not will be made
before very long, not only without a collision,
but without bud blood, with tho United States.
The Ironical remarks of the DcbalB on tho Moni
Uvr arc worth your perusal.
The Monitevr, alter having reproduced that
portion of the message delivered by tho Prcal
dent ol the United States which concerns France
and Mexico, adds In the form of a letter tho fol
lowing observation.-, : -'
'This declaration contains nothing irrecon
cilable with the ticlicv followed by France in
Mexico. When the French Government pro
tented itself in that country, its sole intention
was to support, the United States themselves
had previously done, a whole series of claims
which had been shamefully disregarded. Cir
cumstances, which Napoleon ill had not the
power to prevent, obliged him to declare war on
the Government which then held power in the
city ot Mexico. That authority has fallen, and
another, which owes its existence to universal
suffrage, has replaced it. France has been natu
rally obliged to defend from insurrectional
attacks the Government which alone could afford
redress to her iust claims. The French Cabinet
has shown by all its acts as well as by its decla
rations what was the object it was pursuing. It
ha3 no spirit of conquest, it has taken nothing
and accepted nothing; it w ishes to retain nothing
of (he regions pacified by its troops.
Its occupation, as is now well known hi the
United States, is entirely temporary, and will
cca.-e with the cause which gave rise to it. As
to the tomi of government which the Mexican
people have recently chosen volnntaiily, it has
has been frequently Tccocnizcd even by the
Federal authorities. President Monroe sent a
k pi pcnt.'itivt! to the Emperor lturbide; and
w hen, in IK,;, the J.inister of Santa Anna at
Wnt-h;iiuton received from his Government the
order to in!oriu the United Stale that a chance
of institutions would soon fake place in the city
of Mexico, Mr. Mnrcy simply replied to this com
nniiilcntion that Mexico, as an independent and
tovereieu nation, hud the light to choose tho
form ul Government which best smitcd the char
acter of its people. Those precedents show that
there exists no absolu;e point of antagonism be
tween the policy of the United States and the
adoption ol the monarchical lorm by n nri"h.
Doling people. ' UtY-T
The Libats quotes the extract thus uiuijuuuu
then remarks on it in these words:
"Everything is therefore forthc bestluthctwo
worlds, and the rumcrs which were in circula
tion relutive to the intentions of the United
States, with regard to Mexico, fall to the ground.
ror our part, we had never attached much credit
to them. Every one is awaie that there are at
New York and New Orleans manufacturers of
news, and ollices for the fabrication of telegrams
especially devoted to financial operations; and
tins important clement must be taken into ac
count. What must ni.-o be icmembcrcd is that
the Englhh journals lake great pains to enve
nom the relations ot ! ranee with tlie American
Republic, and to turn u on Mexico the current
which runs more naturally to Canada. We have
never said, and we have no intention of saying,
that tlio united btates look with satistaction on
a foreign intervention and the estublit-huient of
n'uionarchical Government in a country which is
on their continent an I borders their frontier,
and which was latally falling under their influ
ence. "They must have felt still greater bitterness
from the fact that the moment chosen was one.
in which they were passing through an internal
crisis: which might become mortal. But they
have time and space before them. They possess,
although such a qut.lity is systematically denied
to democrats, suthcicut political pool sense to
know that they have something better to do at
the present moment than to trouble themselves
about Mexico. On that point we are perfectly
in accord with the Moniieur. We are convinced
that the French Government Svishes to retain
nothing ot the district! pacified by its troops.'
They arc, indeed, regions where peace aud soli
tude are synonymous, and of which nothing
better is asked than to quit them. Every one
who prizes the real French traditions and tlie
true interests of democracy in the world will
have rend with satislaction the message of Presi
dent Johnson, and taken note of the pacific aud
conciliatory oi?posi'ion shown by the Chief of
the American Republic.
"Wc said the other (lav. in quoting the language
of the United States Minister in Paris, that tne
American Government was redriclner its army to
a reserve of 200,000 men. The reduction officially
announced by the Message is much more con
siderable, and places the ' United States entirely
on a peace footing. Thus, the war budget is re
duced from $510,000,100 to H3,00O,000; and the
army, which on the 1st of May, 1HG5, consisted
of more than 1,000,000 men, is reduced to a total
of 60,000 of all arms, which number may be in
creased to 82,000 In case of need. More than
8i)0,0ti() volunteers have already returned home,
as quietly as a Christian returns from the sauc
tuary to his house on a Sabbath morning, as
General Schofield -remarked. Those acts prove
sulliciently the resolution ot the United States to
apply ail their strength, labor, and industry to
the work ot reconstruction."
The C'ourrier du Havre says: "The conmer
cial relations between this port and the Jnited
Stales, owing to the termination of the American
crisis, have latterly recovered an extraordinary
activity. The fact is proved by tho simultaneous
departure of the following steamers: The trans
atlantic French steamer Europe left this port for
New York on the 15th, with 720 tons of different
kinds of merchandise; the transatlantic Ameri
can steamer Arago arrived from New York on
the 10th, with a cargo of cotton, and lelt Havre
on the 10th, with 1000 tons ot fuel for tho
voyage, besides 900 tons of goods. The English
steamer Niagara arrived here from Liverpool
on the 12th, w ith a lull cargo, consisting of 2124
bales ot cotton and 200 sundry packages, landed
its goods, and took on board a rich freight of
tissues, wines, glass, etc., in all 1500 tons, for
New York.
"The English steamer America arrived on the
same day, with a cargo of 2616 bales of cotton
and 2000 sundries, and will takeup here a freight
similar to that of the Xiagara for her voyage to
the United States. The American sailing packet
Mei-cury, arrived from New York on the 22d ult.,
with cotton, will leave on 24th of December, with
12C0 tons of poods ot all sorts, chiefly wiues and
porcelains. The terminus of the Havre Railway
is at this moment incumbered with merchandise
conveyed every day from the capital. On the
17th. the eve of the departure of the Arago aud
A'iaaara, the railwav presented a Beene of extra
ordinary activity, tuc'u as had not been witnessed
lor the last six years. More than 2U00 packages
were piled up in the two otlices waiting tone
taken away.1 JSr. 1. Tribune.
A Land-title Distcte in tbk Oil Regions.
The Erie (Pa Lirpclch says: "Fortwoor three
days pastthe citizens of Corry, Pa., have been very
much excited at the discovery of the fact that
there is a disputed title to the property on which
a large part of that city or village ia located. All
sorts of wild 6tones have been put afloat re
specting the state ol things, not a tithe ol which
has any loundati m hi fact. The substance of the
whole chec, as ncur ts we can learn, aud we have
annlicd to the foiiiituin-head, amounts to this:
In 1800 the land ir dispute was purchased at
Sheriffs sale, by II. P. Frauds and King.and was
in the sale deiioinioared 'wild land.' It was pur
chased tor a mere trifie. . In 1H02, tho owners
bingiu arrears lor taxes, the land was again
disposed ol at Treasurer's sale. aLd was Jhought
in by Mesis. Cooper and Frisbec, of Unior, by
payment oi tne taxes, the panics secured ii oy
a deed, which was ilulv recorded. By law the
original owners could, within a certain time (two
years we think), retume possession by making
good the taxes and costs, and, probably intend
ing to do this, parcelled tho land (ninety-two
acies) into building lots, and disposed of thera.
The two yeais having expired, Messrs. Cooper
and Frisbee now claim the land, and, it is said,
me improvements with it."
