The. New Empress of the French.
- We are in possession of some interesting
details in the history.elthe lady, who, as is
officially announced, was to be united to
Louis Napoleon by civil act on the 22d, and
by religious rites on the 29th of last month.
These details we have received from a for
eign gentleman, who is perfectly acquainted
with the facts and persons inuestion ; and
they may be relied on as authentic.
Senorita Engenia de Teba,'or as she is
more usually known. M'lle. de Montijo, is
the daughter of a nobleman, who belonged
to one of the most eminent families of the
Spanish' aristocracy, that of i'alafoix and
who distinguished himself in the civil war of
1823. under the tide of the Count de Tebn.
At that time he became acquainted with
Miss Maria Kirkpatrick. the dashing and
handsome 'daughter of a Scotch gentleman,
who held the post of Consul of the United
States at Malaga. A love affair and roman
tic marriage was the consequence. The
'new-Made Empress is the daughter of this
Spanish grandee, and , Maria Kirkpatrick,
who is still living, a widow and who accom
pnnies her daughter on her present Visit to
Paris, where she Ems appeared under the
title of Countess de Teba. A fter the mar
riage, in 1823, the death of an elder brother
conferred upon the Count, along with a
score of other titles, that of Montijn, by which
'name, since her first appearance in fashion
able life, the daughter has been generally
distinguishes!. She also inherits a hand
saine fortune, her independent income being
something like $30.000 a year. The father
died some years since. leaving two daugh
ters; the elder now wears, by mart tage, the
title of Duches of Alvu and Berwick, than
which the Spanish nubility can boast noth
ing more elevated.
Fur some years the young Countess de
'Teha or Montijo, who is now about twenty
five, has enjoyed at Madrid the reputation
of an exceeding fast woman. Tall, grace
ful, of statuesque symmetry of person with
luxuriant auburn or rather red hair, a pale
complexion which has latterly stood in need
of a little rouge, great electrical -yes of a
brown so &el) and radiant, as to ass for
Hack, ruttier long and aristocratic . attires,
large but exquisitely sculptured nose n lovt
lv in . tuth, and teeth of dazzling whiteness,
4.h,, is a type of admirable beauty, which a
languid and blase air hardly diminishes.-
I:ndowed wilt' uncommon wit timid ' spirit,
she speal..s French, Enclish. Italian and
'1 I, rman with as much fluency as S;;anis h.
A proti.nent in excercises of strength and
address, she rides with the boldest, and
drives hour-ir -hand with the most skilful.
At ;Madrid it was din habit of our heroine
to bid d, fiance to public opinion as the whim
no...T'it stir. her. She used to a ppritr
slime in public, driving her own carriage.
She hail a separate establishment in her
indther's pitlacii inviting and receiving any
company without consulting her mother,
,and ;Won refusinr. access even to her ride
tiv,s. Once tier mother forced tier door,
despite the remonstrances of the servant,
who protested that time Countess wanted to
he alone. 'l'o In , r great amine , ment, she
(mind that her (laughter was Illi: , Silig.--
Por twenty-four hours the yowl,' lady did
not appear, and when she returned cooly in
formed her afflicted parent, who had loudly
expressed her fears that there had been an
elopement, that she had been away on . an
errand !
On another occasion, the whim takes her
to pay a special compliment to literature,
•iind her Ca rriage stot.s at the chloral Seilor
cosura. one of the must prominent of living
Spanish authors, ‘vho was some years since
it Minister of the Crown. "Goad morning.
my dear sir," was her salutation to the as
tonished litterature ; "I have come to break
fast frith you in order to have a talk on lit
erature and poetry." A few weeks later
Escosura gave a dinner to a number of liter
ary men, artists, and actors, nt which the
Countess was presei.t without her mother or
any other lady as chaperone. She whsthe
life of the party, making speeches and giv
ing toasts with the loudest. Among the guest
was a fiirst-rate French actor, named Lafer
riere, who had great success in Madrid.—
He was from the Theater Historigue in Par
is: She took a fancy to him, and had a long
conversation with him. When the time for
leaving came, "Well," said the Countess,
..triv carriage is here, and I will take M.
L:iferriere to his hotel." The young man
was a little abashed at such a courtesy from
.such a lady ; but.she insisted and they de.
parted together.
Mlle. de Montijo was also a great sports
woman, and very popular, of course, among
the terreadors or bull-fighters. She was pres
ent at all the bull-fights in Madrid, where
she used to were the most magnificent coy.
turne of a Moja de Sevilla, something like
that of Mlle. Soto, in the ballet of the same
name at Niblo7s, but much more character.
istic. A very large and high comb at the
top of the head, with wreaths or roses falling
on each side, mixed with the hair; a pro
fusion of diamonds, necklaces, bracelets arid
rings ; a very showy and tight waist, cut
low in the neck, and with bare arms; a very
short skirt, open-worked stockings with col
ored embroidery, and very small embroidered
slippers. When she appeared in the cir
cus, she was saluted . by all the torreadors,
and exchanged with ttiein the most cordial
greetings. "To thee, Countess de Teba. I
dedicate • my love and my prowess !" they
would exclaim, wafting kisses toward the
young lady. 'Bravo, Antonio ! Bravo, Jose !
Well fought, my boys,' and other words of
most liberal approbation, were the answer.
In all such scenes there was a considerable
display of Spanish frankness, which would
have been very shocking to the sense of
propriety of American ladies.
Like all fast women, our Countess found
a matrimonial establishment difficult to ob
tain. Once she courted the Duke of Os.
suns, thu richest grandee of Spain, but he
declined the honor. Disappointed in this
scheme. she received the addressee of a
young noble of Castile , and was nearly en
gaged to marry him. But she could not
help flirixig at the same time ; and once
when this young man was in her artivring
room, she went' so far in her coquetry with
another, that the former aspirant for her
hand seized a chair and threw it at her head
saying, with the most opprobrious epithets.
that he would not marry her for the world.
The insult was represented by the last ob
ject of her attentions, and two or three du
els were the consequence. The result of all
these acts of dashing eccentricity. and of all
there scandals, and of others quite as notori
ous, was that it would have been little less
then impossible for Mlle. de Montijo to mar
ry a gentleman of her own rank in Spain.
For three or four years past Mlle. de
Montijo has been wont to spend the winter
in Paris. where her conduct has been much
more circumspect than at Madrid. Still,
she has never gained nn entry into the. aris
tocratic circles of the Faubourg St. Germain.
But she was compensated for this exclusion
by knowing she was received at the Elysee.
and by the profound impression she' made
upon its master. Frorn the first she inspired
Louis Napoleon with an ardent passion,
which justified her resolution to become his
wife and share the glories that desiny had
in reserve for him. In accordance with this
determination, she steadily rrjscted other
proposals without regard to their inat.rnifi
cence. It was currently reported at Paris
a few months ago, that her reply to his pro
testation of love had been ; 'Prince I ant of
ton good a fatrily to be your rriistress,"—
and, if the saying be not exactly true in fact.
there is no doubt that it is so in spirit.
terly the intentions of the lover have te
creased in zeal, and the position of the lady
in his Court has been more marked then
ever. She was the heroine of every festi
val ; during the recent excursion of the Court
to Compiegne, she stood at its head as the
bright particular star of the imperial admi
ration and there were not wanting those who
predicted her marriage with Napoleon.—
Still the love hesitated. Ile ndored, he wor
shiped, yet he didn't come tip to the mark.
But the Countess was not discouraged.—
She is too skillful an actress to be at fault in
such an emergency.' She announced the
approaching departure of herself arid her
mother for Madrid. The result was the
proposal of marriage, the appointment of the
day, the annunchtion to the Ministers and
the world that the Countess was lb be his
wife and no doubt ere this the lionne of Ma
drid and the grand-daughter of the former
U. S. Consul at Nielsen' has become EIJOE
sin, Empress of the French. It is said that
n gipsy once predicted that she would he
elevated to a throne, after the fashion of fa
mous prediction of the negroes to Josephine.
It remains to be seen how far the future
will complete the paralled between the
wives of the'two poleons.—N. Y. Times.
The New French Empress.
The New York Commercial publishes a
communication (from one who was former
ly a resident of Spain) givine the following
.ketch, which seems to explain the funnily
nri;,•in of the nr w Empress of France very
satisfactorily. Het history is nn less roman
tic than that of Empress Josephine :
t. By to day's old vices from Europe, we
are told that the E operor Napoleon 111. has
espoused n Spanish lady, “i% hose grandfath
er was British consul nt Malaga, and whose
mother was an Irish lady by the name of
Fitzpatrick ; also, that this .new Empress
was in her own right, Countess Teba.
though bearing the named Mad'lls Monte
go. This much by telegraph. Now the
plain English of all this is no doubt, as fol
lows
A worthy Scotchman, by the name of
Wm. Kirkpatrick, was for some time the
American consul at Malaga, and failing in
business, was succeeded by George G. Bar
rel as United Suites consul at Malaga.—
This was,l think, under President Monroe's
ad m inistrat ion.
"Mr. Kirkpatrick's eldest daughter Ma
rin or , Mariaquetta,' ns she was familiarly
called and known by all Americans there,
was a very fine. dashing lady, and married
the Count de Tebn, a younger brother of
the celebrated Palaloix, who behaved so gal
lantly at the seige of Zaragoza, and who in
reply to a demand of surrender, declared he
would continue the defence by "War to the
knife."
..The Palafoix family embraced numer
ous tittles, and was singularly brave and no
ble.
This husband of Maria Kirkpatrick
(Count do Teba) was a gallant soldier, and
so cut up by wounds' as to be unable to
mount his horse without aid, and when in
the saddle looked more as if he was hooked.
on than seated Mere.
" The new Empress of the French is no
doubt the daughter of - this Countess Teba,
"Mariaquetta Kirkpatrick,." who was the
daughter of WM. Kirkpatrick, late. United
States Consul at Malaga—oot British Con
sul—not Fitzpatrick—and not Irish.
I. The British Consul at Malaga was
!iam Laid, another, old, Scotch gentleman,
and he was followed by ~11r. Marks, an
Englishman.
"If the new Empress of France was
Countess Teba, as stated, then her mother
is dead, as also is her father, and she took
the title of her mother. The name 4onte
go, under which she passed in Paris, is per
haps one of the family names, or titles of the
Palafoix family."
Air Engine in France•—A French paper con-,
tains an account of the developement of a new
motive power in Paris, nn the 12th of December.
The invention consists in the compression of at.
mospherin air within one•thirtieth of its natural
space, and cononed in a bottle placed under the
seat of a minature carriage, it served as propell
ing power. The paper states that two large car
riages were being constructed and soon we shall
see the curious spectacle of an omnibus travers

cost of a cent, or less, fourteen passengers from

Sugar Making in Havana.
Mr. Fuller, the editor of the New York
Evening Mirror, has been visiting some of
the sugar estates in Havana, and concludes
one of his interesting letters as follows
I must here close these hurried notes of
my five days' ramblings among the sugar
estates in the north of Cuba, having seen in
this short period a sufficient quahtity of "sac
charine matter" to sweeten the Atlantic
Ocean. From the mill at Ainistad...juice"
flows at the rate of sixteen hundred gallons
per hour—in a stream almost equal to the
water power that turns the wheel. At the
Aldama estate, they are preparing to
send the juice a distance of three miles,
in iron tubes, to be boiled. On a plantation
of two thousand acaes, you will see cane
enough growing to fiil the Croton Reservoir
with sap. I have seen stalks upon the Al
fonso estate fifteen feet in length, and large
round in proportion.. When it is added that
ninety per cent. in weight of the cane, is
juice, some idea may be formed of its mar
velous riches. The best mills such as the
Ainistad, only obtain from seventy to seven.
to five per cent, It is quite probable that
some chemical means will yet be discovered
of extracting the last particle from the bag•
azo.
Woman's Rights, &c.
A bill has been introduced into the Senate
of New Jersey, proposing some radical
changes in regard to the rights and privi
leges of married women.
Sec. I. Gives - married - women the power
of devising and conveying their property
without the consent of their husbands.
Sec. 2. Makes the seperate property of
married wonten liable for their ante•nuptial
debts, and exonerates the husband.
Sec. :3. Allows married women to prose•
cute in their own names and demand in
their own right.
- Sec. 4. Relieves husband from support of
wife when living separately, except alimony
on order of Chancellor, and authorizes Chan
cellor, on application for divorce, to decree
custody of children, to either husband or
wife, and decree support out of the estate
of either.
Sec. 5. Ennbles married women, by ex
press contract in writing, to bind their sepe
rate estate for their debts.
Section 6. Directs succession between
husband and wife in case of intestacy, to re
main as heretofore.
The Aztec Children.--A very beautiful gold
comb, weighing flftrneven pennyweights, and
ornamented with twenty three diamonds has been
presented by Mrs. President Fillmore to the Az
tec girl. This mysterious little creature, in corn*
pany with her diminutive and equally mysteri
ous male companion, having visited the Presi
dential Mansion, excited a very lively interest in
the estimable donor, who gave expression to her
kindly emotions by directing the manufacture.
and bestowal of the generous gift above describ
ed. Valuable as it intrinsically is, it will no
doubt be most highly prized by the recipient as
a memento of the happy hour she spent at the
White Holm. The inscription upon the comb
is. ' , President Fillmore's family present to Dar
win."
The Telegraph.— The extent of telegraphic
communication, completed and In operation
throughout the world, at the beginning of the
present year, may he estimated at nearly 40,000
miles. Of this amount there are neatly 4000
miles in Great Britain, and in America 20,000
miles completed and in operation, with 10,000
more in process of construction. Russia has just
commenced her system of telegraphs between St.
Petersburg, Moscowillnd Cracow, and the ports
of the Baltic and Black Seas. About 4000 miles
are about to be constructed in India. The only

Great Hat, Cap and Fur Store:
IN ALLENTOWIC
Win. Keck,
Truly thankful for the liberal patronage,
heretofore extended to him by his friends.
and a generous public, requests a continue
once of that patronage from them and that
they should now call, and examine the most
extensive' stockof
HATS, CAPS AND runs,
that has ever been brought to the
public, at his established and lately
refitted Hat Emporium, No. 14, Wilson's
Row, East Hamilton street. •
-.
He has just returned from the City of
Phila., with the latest Fall style of Hats and
Caps of all kinds and varieties.
The Ladies he would particularly invite
to an examination of his new and select stock
of Furs; consisting of . . .
MUFFS, BOAS AND TIPPETS, •
of Fitch. Lynx,
.Genet, Stone-martin. Sil t
ver-martin and Siberian Furs, Swans-down,
all splendid in quality, superbin appearance,
and cheap in price.
The people of this neighborhood, have
found it expensive to go to the great neigh
boring cities. Hereafter, to think them
selves in either of them, will be very cheap.
They will merely have to call into the above
mentioned Hat store, observe the late im
provements, and hear of the uncommonly
low price, when at once, their imagination
will impress them with the belief that they
stand in one of the best and cheapest Hat
stores of New York or Philadelphia.
Call, see, examine, judge, inspect, choose,
price, and buy for yourselves.
