Princess Bibesco’s Position Before the Laws of France —The Code and its Consequences—What Fresh Compli cations May Arise —A Marriage that is Not a Marriage. [ orrespondence of the N. Y. Times.l Paris, Friday, Oct. 29,1875. Nearly all the journals havo discussed the marriage of Mine. De Beauffremont with Prince George Bibesco, and some curious legal points have been raised in connection with this affair. But before proceeding to extremes in the matter, the most eminent legal minds of Europe were consulted, and Prince George had the best of advice in the matter. But the French Government is greatly embarrassed by the act, for while the Catholics are pushing it to take some steps for the defense of the Vat ican, which • has been defied in this case as well as the French code, any action hostile to the lady would give rise to a diplomatic incident, and pr< bully a protest from the Cabinet of St. Petersburg as well as that of Berlin. It is curious to examine the position of Mme De Bibesco, as we must now call her, from the French point of view. After a struggle of seven years Mme. de Beauffremont was separated from her husband, and determined to marry Prince George Bibesco. She first ex hausted every means for carrying out her wishes in France. These failing her, she renounced the nationality! acquired by her marriage and had her self naturalized as a Saxon. She then obtained a divorce from the tribunal of Dresden. This acquired, she could proceed at once with her civil marriage to Bibesco, the legislation of Molde- Wallachia, to which country he belongs, permitting divorce.Then came the religi ous ceremony. The Pope of Rome refused sanction the marriage, and the lady then abjured her religion, joining the Greek Catholic Church to which her husband belonged. Having been bab tized in his religion, the Greek Pope, residing at Dresden, himself a Russian, ,as ready to perform the ceremony if he Czar gave hi3 consent. The Em peror of Russia made no objections, as everything was perfectly legal so far as the laws of his country were concerned, and the religious marriage was performed. Then another civil marriage took place at tire Wallachian Legation in Paris, in presence of the representative of the Czar, who signed the contract. But, notwithstanding all this, the lady is not married at all in France, though her husband is. The position of the Comtesse Valen tino Caraman de Chimay, late Princess do Beauffremont, before the French code is very peculiar. 1. This code does net admit the princple of divorce, nor the possibility of a second marriage during the life of the first husband. 2. The woman, even when separated legally from bed and board, cannot bring suit at law without the authoriza tion of her husband, unless in certain special cases, after having fulfilled cer tain formalities. 3. The French,tribu nals claim that they alone have the right to decide upon the civil status of a French citizen, and that, therefore, the action of the Dresden tribunal is null. 4. The decree of 1811, always In force, does not permit any French citizen to have himself naturalized in another country without the authorization of the Chief of State. This authorization is accorded by letters patent made out by the Garde des Sceaux, signed by the hand of the President, counter signed by the competent Ministers, in serted in the Bulletin des Lois, and registered in the court of the district of the last domicile of the party con cerned. None of these conditions were complied with by Mme. De Beauffre raoni, and hence, in so far as her sec . .nd union is concerned, she is amen able to the French laws. And it is the same throughout toe East and other places where the Consular Corps of France has special jurisdiction. This state of things has a number of legal consequences, the chief of which are : 1. From to-day Prince de Beauf i’remontcan demand the guardianship * i the two girls confided to the care of the mother by the courts, even though they voluntarily elect to remain with th- ■ mother, or fly to her for refuge. 2. The separation of body does not au thorize cohabitation, or common life, with a third, and hence there is ground for prosecution for adultery. 3. A criminal action for bigamy can also be brought, and this authorizes a demand for extradition from ali countries where treaties are in force, in case the lady takes refuge in them. 4. In Oriental countries the French Consular agents would be obliged to act the moment criminal charges are enter tained in Fiance. 5. If any children are born from this union, with Prince Bibesco, they will have the name .of De Beauffremont, unless the Prince gets relief from the courts, as he doubtless would, and then these child ren will be illegitimate and cannot share in the succession of their mother. 6. All the property that the Princess could or might inherit from Prince liibesco, in case of bis death, would go to the two children of M. De Beauffre mout. 7. All the clauses of the marriage contract with the lat ter are still in force in French jurisdiction. 8. If, by chance, the Princess should make up with her first husband he could get an order from the courts to force her to return to his umioile, and Prince Bibesco would have no legal remedy—no ground for opposition. 9. Finally, while the Prin cess can be pursued for adultery, her husband cannot be touched ; but should Prince de Beauffremont ever be caught ia Saxony afterward he could bo there pursued for contempt or court. These consequences might be considerably extended upon some minor points, but enough has been given to show the legal aspects of this curious case. Beyond question, Mme. de Beauf fremont has placed herself in a position of great difficulty, but who will say that she is wrong: for after what was said of her relations with Prince Bibesco she had to marry him or pass for his mistress. The religious question is not less delicate. The first benediction having been given by a priest of the Church of Borne, the Church, as well as the French Code, claims that the liens are indissoluble. The ceremony at Dresden is counted as nothing, for no matter now many Greek Popes perform a sort of cere mony the first marriage is bind ing until the Pope that sits in the Vatican dissolves, in the name of God, what was contracted in his name. Such is the exceptional position of Mme. de Beauffremont at this time examined from a legal point of view, and at present I do not care to touch upon its bearing upon private and social life, a domain with which we have nothing to do. Prince George Bibesco has taken the precaution to ascertain that his marriage will be protected by both Saxony and Russia, and I do not think that it will be dis turbed by France. Toecoa had quite a sensation on Sun day night, which was occasioned by an individual receiving a vigorous and well laid on horsewhipping. The horse whipping party was arrested. Twice Asleep. BY EUGENE J. HALL. A child lies sleeping iu calm repose, A s sweet and fair as a dewy rose; Her little white hands are laid at rest Over her gently heaving breast. Sunny smiles on her rod lips play— Linger a moment, then pass away. Forms and faces of earth and air Flit through her mind while she slumbers there. Amid the misty and mellow skies; Their white wings dazzle her dreaming eyes. Until she wakens in mute dismay, While her fleeting fancies fade away. Hhe sleeps again—in her last repose, She lies like a withorod and faded rose. Over her forehead, pain and fair, Ripple her tresses of golden hair; Her little white hands are laid at rest Over her tranquil and lifeless breast. Her voice is silent, and come what may, No smilo will gladden her lips of olay. For the happy dreams she dreamed aro through; How sweet to hope that they all came true. A Ex-Slave's Tribute to His Old Master. Elisha Green, a veteran of tho war of 1812, died recently in Baker county, Fla., in the 86th year of his ago. An estimable colored man, Samuel Spear ing, formerly a slave to Mr. Green, and now the County Tax Collector, fur nishes a Jacksonville paper with a touching tribute to his old friend and master’s memory,- lie says: “Mr. Green was born in South Carolina, near Georgetown, but while he was yet very young his father removed to Bullook county, Ga., whore he resided until he removed to Florida In 1829. He served in the war against England in 1812, under General Jackson. He was also with General Jackson during the cam paign through Florida. On Christmas Day, 1830, he commenced his settle ment on the south prong of the St. Mary’s river, which was then an un broken wilderness, inhabited only by the Indians. He made a camp fire at the root of a large pine tree whilst preparing a shelter for his family, con sisting of a wife and six small children. On the breaking out of the Seminole war, he enlisted and served through the war, during which he was twiced obliged to send his family to Georgia for safety. His property was destroyed and buildings burned by the Indians, but he returned and began again on the ruins of his home, collecting such remnants of his stock as had escaped the marauding savages. By hard work and careful management he soon surrounded him self with the comforts of life. In 1840 he bought the first slave ho ever owned, the writer of this notice, who regrets that he is not able in this sketch to do justice to the friendship which sprung up between master and servant, which lasted until death came between them. The last time the author of this sketch saw him he requested that two of his old servants should come and assist at his burial if he died first. The promise was made, and at his death the telegraph summoned them to the per formance of the last act of love and devotion, which could be shown on this side of eternity. They immediately took the train, and arrived in time to finish digging his grave and join In the last solemn rites over his remains.” TAKE SIMMONS’ LIVER REGULATOR For all diseases of the Liver, Stomach and Spleen.

The Bible refers to It and says: “Were an angel to come down from heaven, ye would not believe.” It is the cause of much injury. We aro disposed to doubt the sincerity of our best friends, and so far is it indulged, that it often leads to misanthropy. This is particularly applicable to the vir tues of many truly valuable remedial ageuts, however strong they may bo en dorsed. Reader, if you havo Dyspepsia, Fever aud Ague, Sick Headache, Torpid Liver, Bilious Colic, Kidney Disease, Flatulence, Constipation of the Bowels or General De bility, and hesitate to use Dr. Tutt’s Liver Pills, write to him and ho will furnish you with hundreds of certificates from the most reliable men and women in the coun try, who have been cured by them, of whom you can make direct inquiry.

C., April 14, 1873. \ The Kitson Machine Company, Lowell, Mass.: Gentlemen; I have been running your system of Compound Opener Lappers and Finisher Lappers, with Eveners, for more than two years past at the Cotton Mill of tno Langley Manufacturing Company, and 1 have found it to work the most satisfactory of any opening and picking arrangement I have ever seen, we have not weighed a pound of cotton upon the picker apron since starting, yet we have had a remarkable regularity of numbers. The staple is not injured by over beating, and it loaves the picker without being curled or knitted; the seeding and cleaning is very completo. Over forty per cent, in labor in this department is saved over the old system. One of the greatest con siderations with this arrangement is its seeur ty against lire. Yours, &c., M. F. FOSTER, Superintendent.
