The Guelphs. some ono IMi ancionnoed that tl4o family name, of the Prince of tiraies is not Gyam.S; but Busies'. It may be the, latter, for any thing wo care, but it is not the former. The Hanoverian dynasty, whatever its teal= snr, name might be, had no right to that of GuStrn, which, to this 'day, Is a baptismal naUt 13 Germany, where his sometimes called , W* .. We shalt state how it hits' been taken', or mis taken, rather, for thepatronymio of,the Howie of Hanover. To do this clearly, Flo ehtill have to go back into the middle ages. ' Odoacer; conqueror and first barbarian Ring' of Italy, who died about the year 493, had la younger brother, named El unulphus,,wlilch, in Bavaria, where he lived for a time, wits, abridged into Guelph, or Welf, the Germ; for Wolf, which thlo amiable soldier by ' his rapacity. Ho finally served under Belisarins, and is said to have fought gallant : ly, His son fought in the last campaigni of 1 Bellsarlus ; his grandson, Caduinus, c 'quered - Burgundy for Queen Brunblltia,,A was reviarded, in 613, with a considerable ptir r; tion of that territory; and his greategraiidsob was mayor of the Palace during the ; reigns . o Childerio and Dagobert 11, kings of Pzancd p and was slain in 070. One of hiekini's.miii• tious said successful, had "acquired large dd, mains in Lombardy, and 'had there "already found, the line of Este.- • • .. • A direct descendant of the Sterpal Anul : phus, was Guelph, of- Altdorf, in Suable, who married Irmentrud, sister of Charlemagne. His daughter, Judith, married the _Emperei' Louis 1., about the year 816: "One of , thi sons by this marriage became Count of Hava'•,' ria, and Guelph 11. had a daughter and heltesit named Onnigdnda, who married Ai? ]II.; Count of Este, and Marquis of Lorabardy,4ll, Italy, in the year 1047. On the death of 'hi uncle Guelph 111., (who had received the Duchy of Caronthea and the March of,Perolu from the Emperor Henry II.,) the 'son - ol Azo and Cunigunda succeeded to the dot mains and title, as Guelph IP., in 1054 The • German and Italian succession ; were united in this Prince, who is generally. acf copied u founder of the Brunswick line. .. Guelph IV. received the Duchy of navaVitt from the Emperor Remy IV., in 1071, and - had previously Inherited the estates of the olde4 branch of the family—the Guelphs of Altdorff His wife was sister of Maude, who married William the Conqueror. Eventually, GuelkY quarrelled with, and defeated the Erumor, and died In Cyprus, in 1101, on his retard from the first, Crusade, in. which he had been not very uncepoolnl. The succession 'thence ran, without stop off hindrance s , through a variety of, direct male heirs, among whom aro Henry• the Black! Henry the Haughty, who first added- Bruno wick to the family possessioils Henry the Lion, who acquired Lunonburg, and•marrieti Maude, daughter of Henry 11. of England, the great-grandson of William the Conqueror; Henry the Admirable, and Henry thb Young: • The gnelph family or Este took active part in the wars which woro so frequent in Italy and Germany. Henry the Haughtyi law of the Emperor Lothairo, unsuccessfullg disputed the imperial crown of Germany with Conrad 111., and thereby had most of,hcido minions taken from him. His brother, Vomit Guelph of Altdorf, grandson of Henry Hsi Lion, then a child, raised the lianner Cerevolt for the recovery of the forfeited duchies, and in one of his battles Was first hoard the, cries of cc Strike for the Guelphs," and,aiitrike for the, Ghibellines I" The latter namo wag applied to Count Guelph's opponents, because their leader had an estate in Wurteniburg called Wiblingen Or Ghlbellingen. The fends between the Guelphs and Ghibel lines lasted over 400 years to Italy, but wore soon appeased 'in Gerinany. The Guelphs generally sided with the Italian party, who contended that no Gorman Emperor should rale them. In these struggles the reigning Guolph- D'Este line bold their own, at least.' At the beginning of the 18th century, Otho, Duke of Brunswick, son of Henry the Lion, by the English Princess Maude, contended for the Imperial Crown of Germany, [with Philip of Suabta, who was supported by the Ghibel lines. This Philip, a few years earlier, bad received Tuscany and all the Italian territo tories vacant by the death of Duke Gueltih, in 1191, from the Emperor Henry VI.; his brother. Popo Innocent 111. decided in . favor of the Duke of Brunswick's claim to the Imperial purple, after • a prolonged contest, terminating only by the death of Philip, the representative of that branch of the Guelph family which had returned to Ger many, with Brunswick as their territory, be came the Emperor Otho IV. He secured himself by marrying the daughter of his late rival in 1209. Rienzi, the celebrated Roman Tribune, whose romantic story Bulwer has told with mingled spirit and pathos, liberated the Eter nal,Oity In ,1847, on the principles which the Guelphs avowed—namely, Italy for the Itali ans. In a word, the Ghibellines represented the principle of aristocracy and the Guelphs that of democracy. The Emperor Otho IV. left no children, and was succeeded in his German dominions by his brother William, urnamed Longsword, whose son, Otho the young;was created first Duke of Brunswick-Lunenburg, in 1236, and whose grandsons, Albert and John, severally divided the realm between them, in 1262, and severally became Dukes of Lunenburg, (In cluding Banover,) and of Brunswick. In 1646, William, second son of Ernest of Zell, (the first Protestant Prince of this line,) took Lunenburg from his father's dominions, and first assumed the title of Duke of Hanover. Ho reigned for twelve years in conjunction with his elder brother Henry, but alone from 1657 to 1591. By his marriage with the Ring of Denmark's daughter, this Prince had seven sons and eight daughters. A romantic incident occurred on Duke Wil liam's death. Ills sons saw that the Duchy of Hanover was but sufllclent for one and too small to be divided among seven. They form ed a solemn compact with each other not to divide the dukedom, but to decide by lot which of thorn should marry, all the others to remain single. He whom fortune should make " Bone dick, the married man," was to reigotivithout caviler disturbance. The fortunateolnin was George, the sixth son. " MiseJane Portei, the English novelist, has written "Duke Christian of Lunenburg " upon this incident. Duko Georgo's son, Ernest, a great military commander, watt made Ninth Elector of the Gorman Empire, under the title of Elector of Hanover, iu December, 1692, being opposed, however, by six of the other Electors, and supported only by Saxony and Brandenburg. Ho married Sophia, daughter of the Elector Palatine, and King of Bohemia, by Elizabeth, daughter of James I. of England, and when, after the Revolution of 1688, an act of settle ment prevented any Catholic Stuart from over wearing the British crown, and gave the suc cession, to the descendants of this Piotestant Princess Sophia. She died in: June, 1714, seven weeks before the death of Queen Anne, and therefore did not see her eldest son ascend the British throne, on August 1, 1714, as George the First. Queen Victoria is the lineal descendant of this first monarch of the House of Hanover. The Salique law prevails in Hanover, and, therefore, on the death of William IV., in England, that country, which had boon made into a kingdom in October = 1814, passed away item under the British sceptre, and Ernest, Duke of Cumberland, oldest surviving aon of George 111., became its Bing. Ho died In 1851, and was succeeded by his only son, un fortunately blind, who reigns as ,George V.

The Italian drama, which progresses with sash rapid strides; is just now, the all-engrossing topic 0 11- ible biker thet—Ntlentio., Ito sooner has the eetititirfallen on one grand scene before It rises again upon another. tiostreeiy one week has elared Shle' the ignoble flight of the King ,of 'Naples, the, last of the Bourbons; from his capital, withant4ven striking a single blow to cheek the approach of the victorious Garibaldi, (but this is not singular, for all eyt'anes are cowards,) before we hew, the startling news of the invasion of the Roman States by the veteran troops of Sardinia, to expel the foreign legions, under the command of Lemorlolore, from Italian soil Perugia has al ready fallen into their hands, with 1,800 prisoners, among whom is the famous General Schmidt, whose barbarous acts at Perugia are fresh in the minds of the people. The Roman and the Sardi nian armies are - now within a few marches of each other; but with the overwhelming forces of the latter, and the pointer feeling in their favor, La mender°, with his hired troops, must enceumb. The die Is now cast, and a few days will decide whether all Italy shall remain freed from the yoke of the Bourbons, ad It now is, or bo again enslaved through foreign intervention, by come indiscreet move on the part of Ito revolutionary leaders. The sedation of this problem is looked for with breathless anxiety ; but, Garibaldi seems to be the man for the age, and all the hopes for Italian in dependence and unity are centred in him. One false step, however, on his part might peril all be has thus far so nobly. gained for Italy; and it would be well for him to pause before he pushes his oonqueats Into Venetian territo-y, for Aultria is not passive while these events are going on, and Is oven now tending 00,000 men to reinforce tho large armies which already hold the strong fortresses of the famous duadrtlaterai, before which the Em peror of the French quailed so much in the late ®Let the Italian states already conquered bo once firmly united, and it will be simply a gnos• tion of time in regard to Venice.

The Emperor of Austria feels particularly uneasy lest his subjects might take it into their heads to serve him the same way' s the King of Naples was served.

Robeeon's Mill ha been modernize 4 of late years, but the antique foundations, breast stones, etc., indicate a 'very, Odd, history. Oa a bluff, now crossed by the Norristown railroad, wore formerly visible the remains of a British redoubt, thrown up as a part of a grand Perios of entrench ments, while Philadelphia was garrisoned by the British in the Revolution., These rains' havehe'eh swept away. • . ; ; In . 1749, a grist mill was erected 1, half mile tip the atream, below the present log cabin, by Nicho las Rittenhouse and Adam Ilegetmoyed. On the north bani some ruins of the dam are aftll in ex istence. In 1779 there were eleven mills on tale 'Wissahickon, in Roxborough township. • Tho cotton•waddineeetorfof Matthew Gorges, some distance up, the stream, has,been,in poem) don of the same family,' uninterrupted, for one hundred' and thirteen' years. Tins 'mill is the Beene of one of Fahnestock's legends, known as " 1 , The flaunted Mill." , The Monastery Mill of William Kitchen and son, elsewhere referred to, was built in 1748 for a grist mill, by Simon, Polner, and Gorges. The remaining mills are of later construotton. The 'finest of these ill that of Megargee & co., pa. per manutaoturers, about six miles up the creek. PAPER RILL RUN AND RITTENUOUEIR TOWN The Wissahickon Makes an abrupt bend about a mile above its mouth, and,at the exterior angle, it is joined by . a stream coming down from the north, known as Paper Mill run. This stream is •more than two miles long. and skirts the West bf Germantown. It is scarcely lees picturesque, in places, than the Wissahlokon. It joins the latter by a series of waterfalls. The lower ot these hes a perpendicular fall of about twenty feet L over. dark shale like rooks. On both Ales, of Paper Mill ran stand a few mattered houses. The vil lage thuh formed Is called Rittenhouse town. Above Rittenhouse Wart stands' the old house hi which Rittenhouse was barb. It was the scene of his many' walks.. The' people in the vi cinity are all members of the Rittenhouse family. Near the sourced Paper Mill iun the first paper mill In British' America Was erected ;by Garret Bitten house, in 1720. It was swePt . away by a freshet. For :nearly.two centuries thot:e has been a mill of some kind upon this run. That of Nicholas RR-, tonhouse, it is said, was built without earls, roads, or barrows. Above Rittenhouse towh, on the Wirt% sithickon, stands - Washington Rock, an immense granite moss; overtopping the road: " A might. rook, Which hits, from unimaginable years, Sustained itself with terror and with toil liver a gulf. and with the agony With which It clings seems slowly coining down ; Pt A bridge Crosses the charm • and high above there stint'. intersoottna trunks from emir to crag, Cedars. and yews, and pine., whose tangled hair la matted in one solid roof of shade,', TU Loa CAlliN Is situated on a plain, at the 60lltb side of the lower Wissahickon, against the foot of a steep hill.
