THE COMTK 1)K PARIS IN '62
HIS HONORABLE AND COURAGEOUS
CAREER WITH M'CLELLAN.
On His Coining Visit to tlie United States
He Will lie Warmly Welcomed by Many
Old Comrade- Fit! John Porter's Strat
egy at Gainen' Mill.
Should the Comte de Paris prolong
his visit to the American states it will
give occasion for some pleasant re
unions with those of his old camp as
sociates in the Union army who sur
vive at this date. Although he was on
headquarters duty—he served as a
captain and aide-de-camp under the title
of Louis Philippe d'Orleans—he was by
- no means a carpet knight, but one of the
rough and ready soldiers, who braved
_ danger and hardships with his American
comrades like a yeoman, prince though
he was and king that might he. The
fact that he was a student and observer,
as well as a daring man of arms, no
doubt gives a sober hue to the personal
recollections of the war, which he has
published in Europe and America, yet
his observations are so frank and earnest
that, coming from a foreigner of rank so
exalted, they have all the interest of the
most stirring narratives.

(From a recent photograph.] gtran gg to the
eyes of observant foreigners. One of the
earliest personal incidents narrated in his
history of the civil war is of a balloon
trip he made from the Union camp, near
Fairfax, over the opposing lines, wiiich
were very closo at that point. The bal
loon floated above both the Union and
„ Confederate camps, and the author re
lates with considerable detail the novel
spectacle spread out before him.
The Confederates, he says, were strag
gling about their quarters, and hanging
over their campfires, gossiping, or wait
ing for their rations, while on the Union
side the troops were under arms and en
gaged in drilling or dress parade. Of
the count's headquarters services Gen.
McClellan has many good words in his
memoirs. He took the dangerous and
disagreeable things incident to his call
ing Pji an aide with the best grace. His
first experience in real war in this serv
' ice was had at Yorktown, on the penin
sula, where he bivouacked for some
weeks under the fire of the enemy's
shells.
When Yorktown was evacuated by
the Confederates lie hastened forward in
pursuit with the mounted column and
was one of the first to reach Williams
burg, where the Confederates halted in
retreat and stood at bay. During the
two months that followed, which in
cluded the march up the peninsula and
the battles on the Chickahominy, ending
with the "Seven Days," the soldier
prince was constantly at the front,
where his person became quite well
known to subordinate officers and sol
diers of the ranks. At the battle of
Gaines' Mill, June 27, the three princes
of McClellan's staff, Da Joinville, Duke
de Chartres and the count, distinguished
themselves, as the battle was fought at
some distance from the headquarters
and staff duty was arduous and attend
ed with grave dangers.
That battle was one of the hardest of
Lhe war, and it cost Lee within a few
hours 10,000 men to dislodge Fitz John
Porter with a strength of only 27,000
against the G4.000 opponents. The hot
test fight was in the center along a wood
ad region known as New Cold Harbor,
and here re-enforcements from Frank
lin's corps—Slocum's division—came up
in the nick of time, guided by the French
princes to the most dangerous posts.
The fighting up to this time had been be
tween the troops of Longstreet and
Whiting on the Confederate side and
Porter on the Union side. What took
place when "Stonewall" Jackson's flank
ing column got to work is described by
the count with the freedom and warmth
of an eye witness. He says:
OVER THE UNION CAMI*.
"Tlie Federal left had hitherto made
an obstinate stand in this narrow section
of the wood against the assaults of Long
street at first and of Whiting after him.
The latter finally availed himself of the
oonfusion into which his- adversaries had
been thrown by the loss of the wood at
New Cold Harbor, to take possession of
it; but every time tliat his soldiers ven
tured beyond the curtain of trees the en
emy's cannon compelled them to run
back for shelter behind this protecting
screen. Meanwhile the Federal infantry,
which had again formed into line near
its guns, was becoming exhausted by so
unequal a struggle, the ammunition was
giving out, no re-enforcements arrived
and the moment approached when excess
ive fatigue would overcome the energy
of the steadiest men. The regiments, of
which more than one were reduced to a
handful of men, drew together in isolated
groups; the combat continued, but was
carried on individually by soldiers among
whom all systematic connection had
ceased to exist.
"Precisely at this moment Jackson
('Stonewall') came forward with his last
reserves and ordered a general attack.
The attenuated lines of the Federals
were everywhere shattered. Whiting
sent forward one of his brigades com
posed of Texan soldiers. * * * Gen.
Hood, who was one of the most brilliant
officers in the Confederate army, was in
command of this brigade, to which he
imparted his own martial ardor. In vain
did the Federal artillery concentrate its
fire to check him like the others as lie
emerged from the wood. The four Texan
regiments advanced without faltering
under a shower of shells. As they closed
up their ranks, which the Federal mis
siles were thinning more and more, their
long line scarcely wavered.
-
OVEIt THE CONFEDERATE CAMP.
"They paused for a moment to fire,
but Hood instantly pushed them for
ward. They rushed onward with loud
yells to the very mouth of the guns
which had so mercilessly poured grape
into them. The artillery horses liitched
to the limbers either ran away with the
drivers or were driven off by them * * *
and the gunners who had persisted in
remaining at their posts to the lust, also
disappeared in the tide of Texans, which
overwhelmed them in an instant, leaving
nothing behind but corpses lying on the
ground."
Porter's battle field was in the form
of an are and could be seen from all
points. His headquarters were near the
center, and the count, his uncle. Prince
de Joinville, and his brother, Duka de
Chartres, were involved in the activity
of this fight. Gen. Porter in his story
of Gaines' Mill, in the "Dattlesand Lead
ers of the Civil War," relates that dur
ing the highest excitement of this battle
the count came to him on the field and
begged him to send his uncle, de Join
ville, on some trumped up errand to
army headquarters so that he might
escape the peril of the position. The
message was given, but the old prince
did not go; it was repeated and still he
did not leave the field. lie said after
ward that things seemed so favorable
all at once that he decided to wait for
good news to take back to the command
ing general.
This batllo was the first one fought by
Gen. Robert E. Lee as commander of the
Army of Northern Virginia. In noting
his advent in a new field the count says:
"His first efforts in war had not been
more brilliant than those of Grant, and
lie personally was but little known to the
troops he was about to lead in battle,
Always a patient, persevering and pru
dent calculator, yet ready to risk much
at the opportune moment; handling a
large army with great dexterity in the
midst of the thickest forests; understand
ing men, selecting theui carefully, and
securing their attachment by his equity;
worshiped by his soldiers and obtaining
from them what no other chief could
have thought of asking them; respected
and obeyed by all his lieutenants; hu
mane, of a conciliatory disposition, one
whose only fault as a general was ail ex
cess of deference to the opinions of sub
ordinates, which at times caused liiiu to
lose a little of that firmness which is so
indispensable in the midst of battle."
The services of the count ended within
a week after the battle of Gaines' Mill
and covered a period of about ten
months. Although an alien, lie held
very decided opinions upon the issue of
the war, and his work shows that his
conduct was not guided by lore of ad
venture, but by conviction. In the
preface to his history he writes:
"Having been kindly received in the
armies of the young republic, which re
members the support given by France to
the first defenders of its independence,
and has not failed to place the name of
Bourbon among those who are to per
petuate its memory on its soil, it has
been the wish of the author to present a
grateful testimony to his late comrades
in arms. In writing his personal recol
lections he lias been led to describe tho
war, some incidents of which have come
within his own personal observation.
Notwithstanding his legitimate prefer
ences for the cause he served (Union), he
has endeavored to preserve throughout
his narrative the strictest impartiality."
He believed slavery was the sole cause
of tho war. "The effects," he declares,
"of the servile institution upon the dom
nant race presents a spectacle—sad and
instructive to historian and philosopher
—of fatal demoralization as a just pun-
ishmant for slavery inflicted upon those
who expected to find nothing but profit
and power. * * * In fact, the slave
power could only exist by enlarging its
domain and absorbing everything around
it. * * * If the north had carried
patience and forbearance much further,
the day when the decisive crisis arrived
this power might possibly have been
able to impose its fatal yoke upon all
America."
The emancipation act was under dis
cussion at tlio time the count left the
country, and was passed soon afterward.
Speaking of the proclamation, he says:
"It inaugurated a new epoch, and the
conflict, freed from the remembrance of
past concessions, assumed henceforth its
real character. It could only be ended
with the entire abolition of slavery from
the soil of the constitutional republic, or
by the triumph of this institution over
the largest portion of America."
The opinion expressed of Lincoln,
whom he introduces as "Honest Mr.
Lincoln," shows a clear understanding
of the trying position of the president
in 1861. ne says:
"The republic had a chief determined
to defend it while respecting the consti
tutional rights and liberties of all; those
who regarded the principles of free labor
as the essential basis of a free and demo
cratic society saw at last a man of their
choice regularly invested with the insig
nia of the chief magistracy; those who,
notwithstanding their affinities with
slaveholders, considered the mainte
nance of the Union as the Ilrst article of
political faith tor every good citizen,
could rally around him without fear."
It is rarely that foreigners, even the
ablest of them, take pains to study
American events with so much diligence
and candor as displayed by this young
prince while fighting our battles as a for
eign ally. GEORGE L. KILMER.
ELBRIDGE T. GERRY.
"Commodore," and Protector of (he New
York Children.
A New Yorker who is much talked
about iu that city, besides being con
stantly written about, is "Commodore"
Gerry, as the facetious newspaper para
graphs call him on all sorts of occasions.
Why "commodore" will soon appear.
Elbridgo Thomas Gerry has other claims
to the title of New Yorker than the mere
fact of residence or business relations in
that city. Among others is his annual
tax bill of SIOO,OOO on city property.
At this season, when novel stage effects
and all manner of youthful prodigies in
amusement talent are tempting caterers
to a remorseless public to strain the law
about children performers, Mr. Gerry
plays another important role.
He is president of the society that looks
after the health and morals of children,
and being a lawyer of marked ability

sentiment ninety-nine times out of every
hundred. Just why, however, lie per
mits the "Little Lord Fauntleroy" and
"Midnight Bell" prodigies to appear can
be accounted for only on the hypothesis
that the stage children in those pieces
are not so young as the public is led to
suppose, or that the god of justice for
children sometimes nods very languidly.
The title of "commodore," so often at
tached to Mr. Gerry's name, signifies
another side to his life, for he is the head
of the New York Yacht club, and a navi
gator of such skill that he is able to run
his famous Electra anywhere in New
York's difficult waters without the serv
ices of a pilot.
He entertains liberally on his yacht
during the sailing season, and his general
social standing may be inferred from the
fact that he was a manager of the Cen
tennial ball of 1889. Probably his work
for humanity will give him the largest
amount of public fame. He was for
many years the counsel for Mr. Bergh's
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals, and his experience in that field
inspired him to organize one for children.
He was born in New York city and
graduated from her great school, Colum
bia college.
A Newspaper lluilding.
The Globe-Democrat newspaper of St.
Louis is to have new quarters. It is to
be erected on the corner of Sixth and
Pine streets, and will rise to eight sto
ries. The first floor is to be of Missouri
granite and brown sandstone, and the
seven stories above of stock brick, with
brown stone trimmings. The building
is to be plain and unpretentious, and ad
mirably adapted to its purposes.
TNN GLOBE-DEMOCRAT'S NEW BUILDING.
The counting room will be on the
ground floor, and the second to the sixth
floor inclusive will each have twelve
bright and roomy offices. The staircase
is to be of marble, anil there are ar
rangements for improved hydraulic pas
senger elevators. The Stereotyping de
partment is on the seventh floor.
The buildings formerly on the prop
erty have been torn down and excava
tions have been commenced. The new
building will cost $300,000, and will be
ready for use within eighteen months.

TWENTY-SECOND ANNUAL CONVEN

The American Woman Suffrage asso
ciation, of which Mrs. Lucy Stone, of
Massachusetts, is president, and the Na
tional Woman Suffrage association, of
which Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton, of
New York, is president, have effected a
union in a four days' session at Wash
ington (the twenty-second annual con
vention), which began Feb. 18, and the
consolidated concern is to be called the
National American, etc. The greatest
event of the session—to use a Hibernian
ism—happened before the convention
began. It was a banquet at the Riggs
house, at which 200 guests sat down, in
honor of the seventieth birthday of Miss
Susan B. Anthony, and the great suc
cess scored was in inducing the United
States senate to appropriate a room for'a
committee on woman suffrage.
As there are some fifteen senate com
mittees that have no room specially as
signed, the ladies were highly elated by
this victory.
Susan B. Anthony—for of course you
want to read a sketch of the brave pioneer
suffragist—was born in North Adams,
Mass., and taught school in that state
and Vermont for fifteen years, making

into prominence in 1851, when she called

of laws in their behalf, for thirty years
past. She has defied the courts of jus
tice, and to this day there is registered
against her a fine in Rochester, N.'Y.,
for illegal voting which she has persist
ently refused to pay.
Of course the late convention attracted
nothing like the attention of the great in
ternational council of advanced women
held at Washington nearly a year ago, at
which nearly all the noted suffragists of
America and many from other countries
took part. One of the features of that
convention was a semi-humorous pa
per on the question, "What Shall Be
Done with the Neglected Ric'h?" by Miss
Frances E. W. Harper, who said she was
proud to announce herself as of African
parentage. She is a quiet, slender looking,
matronly mulatto woman, the structure
of whose sentences and purity of dic
tion were at once a surprise and revela
tion to her audience.
Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton opened
that convention and was equally con
spicuous in the late one. Her seventy

recreation arrived was one of the secrets
of his good health and long life. His
daughter relates of him that even with a
most important case pending, when he
had twenty minutes leisure he would be
able to take fifteen of them in the sound
est of sleep. With him she advocates this
balmy restorative, if such a thing be pos
sible, at no matter what hour of the day
drowsiness may appear.
"Wouldn't I like to get together all the
women of my acquaintance who work,"
said she,"and tell them how much health
ful, regular lives, and a bit of philosophy
thrown in, would benefit their future."
Among her seven children, five sons
and two daughters, there are one or two
conservative ones, but the others are all
followers in their mother's footsteps, radi

of "blurting out the truth," as one pres

A BOGUS MAN.
The Unique Career of Countess Sarolta
Vttjr of Austria.
Lying ill in the house of a friend in
Pesth is the Countess Sarolta Vay.
Thirty-six years ago Gen. Count La
dislas Vay von Vaya took to himself a
wife. He was rich and powerful. When
year after year went by and his good
wife foiled to show her appreciation of
the kindness he had done her in marry
ing her by furnishing him with an heir,
the count was naturally annoyed. The
thought that his vast estates were likely
to pass from the family to the crown
finally affected his mind.
Just at this juncture a child was born.
But, alas! the child was a girl. The
countess was in despair. Finally she de
cided to rear and dress the infant as a
boy and let the count (who was feeble
and apparently traveling the downward
slope of life) live and die happy in the
delusion that the name and estates would
be perpetuated by a son. The bogus boy
was ostensibly christened Sandor, but
her real name was registered as Sarolta.
For fourteen years the girl was care
fully trained to be boyish. She was
dressed in trousers; she was taught to
enjoy those sports in which only men
take part —hunting, fishing and the like.
In short, she occupied in every way the
position of a young Austrian noble, and
moreover, no one suspected less than she
that she was not what she seemed.
When she had passed her fourteenth
birthday an event occurred which upset
all the calculations of her mother. This
event was no more nor less than the ar
rival of a real boy baby. The good old
countess was nonplused. Finally she
took the only course open to her and con
fessed to the count the deception which
had been practiced on him. For the first
time Sarolta learned that her proper
sphere was in the 'tSS&L
drawing room
and not in the y.
saddle. The count
took the news \ I

young man: one
was absolutely incorrigible. She would
not put on skirts and become docile and
ladylike; but fished more, hunted more,
rode harder, gambled more recklessly,
and, as she matured, took to drinking and
smoking as readily as possible. When
she became of age she formally re
nounced parental authority. Seeking
the great citiesof Europe she went about
in high hat, tight trousers and cutaway
coat, and plunged madly into dissipation
of all sorts. She fought three duels with
men who reproached her with her sex
and contracted enormous debts.
In Pesth, in order to keep up the farce,
she affected to have become infatuated
with an actress and gave her magnificent
presents. This sort of life increased her
liabilities so enormously that she had
difficulty in keeping out of prison.
She finally decided that her only es
cape lay in an advantageous marriage.
She found a beautiful young girl named
Mario Engelhardt, the daughter of a rich
army contractor named Laybach. Sa
rolta presented herself as Count Sandor
Vay, and pretended to be a man so skill
fully as to win the love of Marie and the
conseut of her father. They were mar
ried and Sarolta pocketed the dowry of
her quasi wife. Her sex was discovered
and a great scandal was the result. In
the meantime Marie's fortune was squan
dered. Sarolta was imprisoned and Ma
rie was taken back to her father's home.
Something more than a month ago
Sarolta was released from prison.
Curiously enough, Fraulein Marie is
full of admiration for Sarolta, speaks of
her as the grandest of women and is anx
ious to be her companion through life.
