by docuiLCUts that establish, if thev are
grn iinc. it miii-t iie admitted, a most astonish
n.K ier!es of factfl.

fusion, i . nin be well to select In brief tup im
portant poiuis ri i.ni upon by both bides, anil to
weave tin ni as t ir as we may into a clear and
conm ifed tale. Tb s is not easy, for so much
value botti o (laitiiR and answer dep"n1s
upon t! e ueniiiriene.' ot nn iiutiifine mass of ;
documt-uiury evidence, that we can only anue
the question imden'.e lite, In a very supertielal
way.
It has nlvay beep kno-sn that the imnie
d'litecnu'c ot the piissin; ol the Eoval .Mar
riure Act the openly nianilesteil displeasure
ol tieorirc 111 at the union ot Ids brother,
Henry Iredc rick, Duke ot Cumberland, with
Lady Anne iiottou a displeasure wuich re
mained uiichunmd until the Duke's death.
This feeling; in the King tins usually been attri
buted to the German pride of birth by which
Lis luitulv had alwavs been distinguished. If,
however, the documents produced in the case
above mentioned be penuine, it will be proved
that Oorre 111 wao not ollcuded with his bro
ther because ho had married an interior, but
because he had committed deliberately a most
serious olleuse afraiunt morality and Jaw the
oil use ol b paiuy.
Tapers are set forth which demonstrate that
when the Duko oi Cumberland mariicd Lady
Anne Hoiton, h;s wile, Olive Wilmot, to whom
he had been privately hut let ally married ,lour
year previously, wus still alive. As a legitimate
descendant of this lust-mentioned marriage, the
petiliouei in the pending cause claims the style
and honors ot a Princess of the blood royal. The
luce of this marriage Is supported by two
remarkable oertiiieates, stoned by Dr. Wilmot
(the lady's lidheri as the ohioiutiuti clergyman,
ard by the King himsell, by Lord Chatham,
Lord WurwicK, ai.d Lord Archer, as witnesses.
The plea put forward by the Crown ou all
former occusiaus, and which will probably be
again resorted to at the approaching trial, is that
these cert iticates as well as the various ottier
documents bearing on the case, are lorueries,
and on this point we anticipate the decision will
turn. The Duke's second marriage having been
made public, the King, partly influenced by a
wish to hutk ihe matter up, and partly by an
other more personal reason, prevailed upon Dr.
Wilmot, it is asserted, to keep his daughter's
marriage secret. In the meantime, a child, Olive,
was born to the hapless descried wile, and the
birth certificate, signed by Lord Chatham and
Jlr. Dunning, Kolicuor-Generul at the time, also
forms a portion ot the evidence in the case. The
intant was duly baptized iu private by Dr. Wil
mot, as the Duke's daughter, in the presence of
Lord Warwick; but at the King's request means
were taken to pa.-s her on' as tne daughtcrof one
of her uncles.
For this purpose she was rebaptized as Olive
Wilmot merely. Of all these transactions, cer
tificates purporting to be signed by the King,
Lord Chatham, and others ot high position, are
in existence. They may be proved to be for
geries; but if so, they display a skill and auda
city utterly unparalleled in our criminal records.
Though the Kmc desired, tor peculiar reasons,
to keep the child Olive's legitimacy a secret, he
wis not disposed to act unkindly towards her.
Besides numerous private actnowledgments of
her true position, and grants of money for her
use, he proceeded, when she was less than a year
old, to couter upon her the tttla ot the Ducness
ot Lancaster. Ihe patent, which is al-.o to be
produced, was deposited with Lord Warwick,
vho delivered it, in the presence of the late
Duke of Kent, to the owner, then Mrs. Serres.
It is needless to follow here the additional
documentary evidence which is put forward by
the petitioner, Including an alleged will of
George 111, bequeathing to tno infant Olive a
sum of 15,00(1, and a longseiiesot letters and
papers from the late Duke of Kent, acknowledg
ing his cousin's claim. We may very briefly in
dicate the steps that were taken legally and
otherwise by Mrs. Serres, and atterwarus by her
daughter, Mrs. Ryvcs. Proceedings were first
taken in the 1'ierogative Court to obtain probate
of the King's will, but the application was re
fused upon the technical ground that the Court
was not competent to deal with a royal testa
mcnt.
Fo.led in her resort to law, Mrs. Serres re
solved to submit her claim to Parliament.' She
found a champion, unluckily for herself, in Sir
Gtrard Koel, a chivalrous, but somewhat
cracked-brained member, who, after introducing
the lady's cause with much frothy fervor, suc
cumbed meekly enough to a little argument and
a great deal of banter lroni Mr. Peel. Rota during
Mrs. Serres' life and alter her deuth, many at
tempts wtre made to move the royal family by
petitions, but, naturally enough, these were for
ihe most part fruitless. In the year 1845, after
some ditliculty arising from lack of tuuds, a
chancery suit against the Duke of Wellington,
George Ill's surviving executor, wa under
taken, but failed on the ground that the will
had not been proved. As w e have seen, this ne
cessary Btep had been found impossible, and
for a long time the matter remained in dead
lock. The Legitimacy Deslaiation act, passed
in US68, offered an opportunity ol opening up
the question anew, and after a considerable
ielay, sought by the Crown, the trial has been
definitely postponed for next May.
Besides the deeply interesting details which
e have briefly noticed, another and a yet more
extraordinary question will, it is gravely affirmed,
be brought into discussion in connection with
the case. It is only vaguely indicated in the
statement published on behalf ot the petitioner,
and its improbable character is, we teel bound
to say, calculated to throw grave suspicion upon
the whole cluim. We shall therefore onlv hhv
that this collateral Question raised bv Mrs.
Eyves touches the legitimacy of all Geortte Ill's
children. Her statement is briofly this that
George Hi's mairiage with yueen Charlotte was
an act oi Digamy, his tormer and lawful wile,
Hannah Lightioot, being still alive. Upon this
asiounuing ueeriion we ueea not comment; out,
Irom all the circumstances of the cane, wo anfci-

We continue here In statu quo. The little news

A beiliu leutk in the Dcbats professes to give

afiords no idea m tho actual forces Austria may

perfectly clear tl at in the present critical state

denruble to accumulate large forces on the

I hnvc bteu greatly astounded at seeing the

As the materials for such a hn lory are sud
denly recalled bv the interesting announcement,
the memory fairly rebels in the daring exploits
the illustrious liutler would have to recount.
Wbothtithas had the good fortune to see tho
Teuownrd warrior can ever forget his mnrtial
presence the commanding Don, the heavy,
drooping lfds: the powci of cross-questioning
possessed by those remarkable eves, the visage
saturnine, the bead venerably bald, the alder
mntiic propoi tions of the ettsttonomic region
and the portentous cocked hat? Who does
not know that hid bghting qualities were only
eclipsed by his epistolary 'looseness? 'Ircat
as 1'antirge was among "the furred la cnts,"
Hutler was yet greater than he. Great as
G astir was among tho Chitterlings, liutler
excelled him. Garpnntua could comb cannon
balls out ot h'S hair, but hutler launched thun
der word. He lought a ssngulnary bat
tle in a military despatch, and daringly
torn d, with a squadron of colored cavalry, so
turbulent a river as the sleepy Chickahominy,
iu the lace of an enemy thai was nowhcr to be
seen. Created a brigadicr-Rencral for distin
guished gallantry at the Charleston Convention,
he speedily proved himself worthy of tho honor
conferred 'upon hitn. The first theatre ot his
exploits was Maryland, and bis brat baiting
place the Relay House. Tho heights in the
vicinity be seized by a coup Je main, gallantly
turned his cannon "on the villa residences ot
merchants and professional men, aud soon
alternards humanely intimated bl3 intention
to introduce poison into every household if
any more ot his men died of the bowel com
plaint. W c pass by the very admirable manner
in which a little after he stole a night march
into 13'iltiniore, transcended the rugged clils
ot lei.eial Hill, and daringly established his
enmp under protection of the guns of Fort
Mchcnrj ; but nothing short ot a pictorial repre
sentation would do lust ce to that memorable
exhibition of horsemanship with which, after
liberal libations to L'uechus, he astonished, at a
sub:f quf 1 1 period, the spectators in front of the
(iilmor House, fetich precious services Indicated
the propriety ot his removal to another sphere
of action, where his great ml itary skill and his
wonderful executive ability might have free
scope. He was accordingly honored with tho
grnde of Mnjor-General f.r.d ordered to ttke
commotid at Forttess Monroe. His brilliant
ttrategy soon made ifsell once more appa
leut ni that glorious campaign which re
sulted in tho capture of a pump at Hampton;
but the splendor of his genius was not fully de-
eloped until the memorable battle at Big Bethel.
On that notable occasion the retiring nature of
the man was not more conspicuous than the cour
nge he displayed in generously conceding to his
lieutenants the conduct of the Sg.ht whilst he rc
maiueri at headquarters to chronicle the result.
Alter the battle his daring conduct in putting
himsclt at the head ol the fugitives and strag
glers, and animating them, by personal example,
to retreat to a place ot safety, elicited the praise
ot a little army of newspaper correspondents,
who tirst discovered in him, during this mas
terly movement, that faculty of ubiquity on
which they subsequently dilated in such roman
tic terms. The next chapter in this eventlul
history shifts to New Orleans. Farrngut bad
cleared the passnpe of the Mississippi, and
liutler, ordered to that Department, tollowed in
bloodless triumph to clutch the spoils. The
tusk, though arduous, was congenial, and he
found himseii equal to the occasion. With that
profound aversion to meet armed men at close
quarters, which, throughout the whole war,
foimed a prominent trait in the character ot this
remarkable man, he yet punted to distinguish
himst It by reaping glory lrom achievements not
much dissimilar Irom those that have given im
mortality to the mime ot Hnynau. It wtn in this
field cf chivalrous adventure that Butler deter
mined to gather laurels. The ambition was
worthy of him. He was bent upon proving to the
world that tenderness to a woman is an anti
quated virtue, and that however much a tine
devotion to the sex may have chastened the
ruder manners of the bearded warriors of the
feudal ages, it was a'together unworthy of con
sideration in these days of Puritan enlighten
ment. He succeeded to a marvel; and he suc
ceeded also in raising up a host of laudators at
the North, who were proud of his skill as a dia
lectician, and who gloried in his open contempt
for all those old fashioned amenities which, in
the midst of war, exempted mothers and daugh
ters from insult and iniury. But of thia flower
of chivalry, this pink of courtesy, this opposite
to Bayard, Du Guesciin, and Sidney, wny should
we trace the career from its fitting commence
ment to its fitting close ? Dutch Gap remains a
monument of his engineering skill. City Point
is a wit.nesB how vulorously he suffered himself
to be corked up and hermetrically sealed be
tween two rivers. The powder-boat whose ex
plosion was to prostrate the earthworks of Fort
Fisher as a blast of ram's horns toppled
down the walls of Jericho, was the offspring of
his sagacity; but his crowning glory is that, when
he uncovered that the turth works would not
tumble to pieces, and that the men behind
them were bent on doing him a mischief, he
consulted the prudence which is the better part
of valor, and re-embarked his forces, thankful
that be bad thus got rid ol a set of truculent fel
lows. We trust, then, that General Butler is
really engnped in writing "a complete history of
his military career." 'the woiid might welt miss
manv a truer book. Nor need he fear that he
will lack admirers. Guiseppe Balsamo, Count of
Capliostro, numbered among his disciples a
Prince of the Houee ol Rohan, and even Ferdi
nand Mendez Pinto, whom Congreve has handed
down to posterity as "a liar ot the Orst magni
tude," found in his day not a few believers.
After these examples. Buroiv uenerat liutler

history that snail De wortny ot his peculiar re
