THE DAILY EVENING TELEQIUPH PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1353. II I H L, I 1 12. A Rich, Rare, and Racy Scandal Th Princes Esterhazy Assailed by Her Daughter Potatoes and Tears as a Steady Diet. The following Is a copy of a most extraordi nary letter which lias hccn utldrosscd to the Vienna niliiio by the Countess HatUyany Apruxin, and In which she nssailn violently tlio conduct of her mother, ihe PrlncehS Ksterhuzy: "The newspapers," writes the Counted, "litre for some time pat liecu occupying tuetnsolres with an affair which concerns me nearly. All tkotto who have read the articles in qucxtlou must inrontcbtalily put to themselves the follow intr question: "Whut srlme can a daughter have committed that a mother should punish her la i manner as revolting us It is contrary to law and to nature'f" I find myself forced to reply. Having dona nothing to merit such a punish ment, finding myHClf reduced nut merely to poverty, but what is Hill worse to a heart like nine, seeing my. honor drained throuch tho mud by my own mother, I desire to defend my self. I eua.ll relixte succinctly my life during clht years and a half. I am driven to take this des perate course, for my family, by its lullueneo, has shown mc clearly its object, that of reducing me to hrlpk.sbncss by imposing its will on my defenders and closing my mouth even before the tribunal. Guilty in appearance before public opinion, it is (k'Mred to have mo remain so in order that my mother may bo acquitted and 1 condemned. Iet ns see on which side is tho wrong, on which the riirht. In JS01. after having quitted my family for the nrlncipal reasons with which every one is acquainted, for which I blame myself, und for which 1 shall repent to the hour ot my dcatu, 1 remained alone in the world, for immediately after my mother, under the pretext of not being able to oult her son-in-law, my uusbnnd, aban doned me entirely. I ask whether, notwithstand ing iny faults, she was right us a mother In cassimr over to the camp ol the enemy 't Would Phe not have douo better to come to me. her child, and as a woman to extend her hand to raise me and place me in a right course? No: sho put her foot on my head to crubh mo .till more. Strange woman! Had she no idea of what she exposed me to me, a spoiled child par er cellenre spoiled by society, spoiled by every one; nie, who hud beeu reared to believe myself a pho nix '? She did not understand the peril in which she Hung me head foremost. 1 wrote to her at that time to ask the support of her tenderness. She repulsed me. I asked her at least to give me news of the children. I received tho following reply on a scrap of paper: "You arc unworthy to receive news of your children." I was guilty. Oh, yes, I own it: but was that a reason to drive me to despair, and, as a consequence of that despair, to toily I Folly came; after long weeping, after nights passed without sleep, 1 sought a consolation. I required some objectjin life. My imagination, too ardent and rendered unhealthy at that time by grief, my mind nervous and agitated, all drove me to act like a spoiled child. Without experi ence, for it was not years that were wanting to me, it was the experience of lifo, I committed the enormous folly, a folly without name a thou sand times more blamable, 1 will say more ridi culous, to bcliove myself predestined for the theatre to study the dramutlc art. For this purpose I repaired to Paris, where friend of my childhood a noble heart, a mind each as is rarely to be met with (the Princess de Metternich), put aside the prejudices of the world and came to me without fearing the mil lions of calumnies that people would amuse themselves inventing respecting me. She wanted to judge lor herself, and she saw that the world had lied. Although young, she assumed the rote that my mother should have taken from the com mencement, and that the latter had never adopted. "Julie,'1 said to me this friend, "I believe that you are always the same, loyal and good, but in the name of heaven quit this false route; yoa are not born for the theatrs; neither your rank nor your position authorizes this career. I know that yon have labored seriously, but sacrifice what you have done to your mother, to your children. Every one will approve of your con duct. The advice of that friend, a womau distin gulshed for her superior qualities, went straight to my heart. I felt an ardent desire to return into a rood path, and I therefore obeyed her with lov and crratitude. I then understood the clanger in winch a woman is placed who departs from the line traced out for the commonest of mortals. J shall all my life thank the noble and courageous mend wno tacutiatea to me mis re turn to reason. From that time I experienced n invincible repugnance to every kind of extravagaut ten dency. i The same friend of whom I speak with bo much crratitude is a witness of the calm aud re nectable life which I have ltd for the last six years. But far from bringing my mother nearer to me, it appeared to widen the distance between ns. 1 besought her to come and see me were it only for eight days; I a hundred times reiterated this nraver. but In vain. Stul the same friend, and many others in addi tion, old and young, gave her to understand how much filial love had encouraged me in my good resolutions, but she listened neither to that friend nor to the others who made the same representations to her. My mother had always aouie frivolous pretext for not coming. She had no money to undertake the journey; she had no time; she feared to offend her son-in-law in act ing as a motner; sne nao, it seems, ocgun to re card me with horror. I passed my existence! weeping: all my friends sympathized with troubles so little merited, but I suffered in silence, with resignation aud with out deviating from my good resolutions. For If my mother was not near to guide and advise me, there was In the other world the soul ot my father-in-law, which did mot abandon me. That cherished, holy, and respected souvenir gave jue strength to struggle against evil and purse vcre in good. I had committed a censurable act eight and half vears previously, in quitting my poor chil dren, but I had committed It in a moment of triddincss and apprehension. Veugeanco bas hnen taken on me by holding them up as the most Implacable judges of my eonduct. During those eight years i made tiiree loyal anu unre stricted attempts to repair, as far as I could, that fault. In the third of these attempts, the friend of whom I 'speak, and who professes rreat influence, supported my cause with my family, but they cast me oft all the same. And yet I made but one modest request: "To return tome to take tho lastof places: to bo there even less than the leftBt of servants, in order to enjov. after a lonir martyrdom, the right vf being still th ri.ntlicr of mv children.' Each time they replied to me with a humanity without exurnnle. that all that wan not sufll- cleut. My mother, not satlsliod with wrlm,'lug my heart, endeavored two years ago to punish me nhvslcallT. fcue took back Irotn me ut that "time 'J00 florins, out of tho small monthly allow Anne of 700 llorlns which she gave mo. i re , slated this act of Injustice, but again, and us before, in vain. (She would not yield, and as signed for cause the debts eontr.tetod by my brother. I continued, tbereforo, to live not merely an Isolated life, but also an existence "materially very poor, but still more and mora tranquil and respectable. When, about ten mouths ago, without auy reason and without notice of any sort, my allow ance from my mother conned, I thought Mi it It was merciv a delay, and at last wrote In order to avoid the recurrence of such painful disappoint ments In regard to so small an allowance, it wns uol thought necessary eveu to reply to mo. Nei ther my mother nor her first employe, to whom 1 also addressed myself, felt themselves called njoii to give any signs of life I wrote letters still more pressing; the me silonce. Friends, relatives wrote on my behalf. . 'one of them received answers. I thought that I should have lost my reason. This silence lusted four months; my mother finished by sending me back my letters unread. My letters, written from the heart, would have moved a rock. My mother remained indifferent to them. Jhjring theso four months of mortal silence it was perhaps hoped that I would die of hunger or that I would have Hung myself into tho Meiue in dcsp'iir. 1 was exposed to everything by this obstinate mutism to suicide, to dishonor, to tlielt as a means of sustaining life. I remained months sustained merely by pota toes or haricot beans, which I cooked mvself. In eating I watered them with moro tears" than I thought I could have shed during my whole life. Finding, at the end of four months, to the great regret of my mother, that I still lived, that 1 had committed no crime which would autho rize her to disembarrass herself of the support of a daughter whom she detested, by easting her into a prison of some kind, she made me an oiler which I could not accept, namely, that she would rcstorehnn the miserable monthly pension which elie had formerly allowed me if I would sell at that price the fortune which had been left me by the will of my poor, adored fathor-iu-law. I was forced, seeing that no gentle means was likely to lend to an acceptable result, to address myself to the tribunals. The following was my demand: That my mother should pay me the ten months' arrears, in order mat i nil inn acquit my obligations towarus mc menus wno bad lent me tho means to live. I also demanded that my alimentary pension should lie uxeu irom mat time by the law, in proportion to the fortune of my mother and the numiier oi ucr cnnuren. e are but two, my brother and myself. The Income of my mother t ue net income is juu.uuu norms in snort, i desire, alter having assured my present, to secure my future, 1 wish to con vince myself If my half sharo. the life nse of which my mother enjoys, is much em barrassed or at all endangered. I must do this during the life of my mother, forafier her death there would be no means of remedying the misciiiei aone. i claim only my right, and the law will accord it to me. Noble and devoted friends, intl mutely acquainted with the unjustifiable Y-otv duct of my mother, promise mc their "snn- port in everything to the end of this revolting struggle. i in arriving nere my lirst duty was to repair to l.anscniier to me tomo oi my poor lather, The state in which 1 found this tomb made me comprehend everything. This souvenir had not Imeu respected. The tomb was in ruins. Tho letters of the inscription on the white marble cross are in a great measure effaced: the lime of the walls of the chapel is falling in on every side. and tho bricks are following it. The grave even Lus a withered appearance. J. wo or three rose trees, planted twenty years ago, regard each other in the distance, and to weep over their abandonment. And over this desolated grave I w hom he had cherished us if I had been his own child knelt sobbing with my heart torn and without bread. While at Uakerean my mother is living in great style, sue mis not money eulli eient to keep in order tho grave of him to whom she owes everything, or a copper to Ilinir to me. But on this grave I have taken an oath to avenge that sacred memory, outraged in my person the clearest object that the departed one cue riHiied on earth. Not content w ith doing me all the evil bIiq could, my mother has never thought of eflaclng, In tho eyes of the world, my past faults, by dwelling with the maternal pride which ought to be instinctive on my lite of reparation. On the contrary, the more she. her Intimates, and her employes have been able to blacken mo in the eyes of the world, the more they have done it. This letter has no other object than that of clearing my honor, which is tho honor of my children. Since my mother bus not undertaken to do it, I must do it myself, for f ask of every loval heart if there can be a ruoru poignant grief than that of having always been honest aud being treated as criminal. 1 recognize in but one person the right of never pardoning me my faults, for he only has been wounded by them, God, my mother, aud society have justly punished mc for them. After many years ot repentance uoa lias pardoned mc. .Mv mother is more severe than lion. Before the Court my mother's lawyer told me that my mother owed me no allowance, that being of age I ought to earn my own bread, and the Judge did not contradict him. I endeavored to refute this assertion, but the Judge told me curtly to hold my tongue. I suppose because my ticicnse snoum nave ueen oucreo Dy my lawyer, but the latter found it convenient to allow this incident to pass unobserved. This law does not exist for us children of arlstoerats. We have not been reared to earn our bread. In what manner, then, does my mother's lawyer tnnan that. T should train a. livelihood ? Let the world utter a shout of blame and in dlgnation at such an infamy. COMTESSE Jl'LIE BaTHYANV Al'RAXIN P. 8. Let my mother thank her defender, ad vocate, and counsellor for the censure which this letter will justly cause to be cast on her. The world must not imagine that I have em ployed in these pages all my arms. I have held in reserve the most venomous, and will only use them in the event of my being forced to use tliem.
