MR. BANCROFT SATISFIED
WELL PLEASED WITH HIS GRAND
DAUGHTER’S MARRIAGE.
‘ Perhaps He Had Rather Have an
American Nobleman for Her Hus
band Than One of the Foreign Sort—
The Sorrow of His Son’s Marriage,
Father of This Girl—How the His
torian Looks and Works.
From the New York W orld.
Washington, Nov?22.—Miss Bancroft’s
marriage will continue to be the subject of
conversation in Washington society for
some weeks to come. The high standing of
the young lady, her own historical descent
and that also of the groom, and the extra
ordinary nature of the marriage, have set
the highest circles all agog. Miss Susanne
Bancroft has been for the past two years
one of the belles of Washington. She has
moved in the highest circles, and has been
one of the diplomatic coterie which is above
the ordinary Congressional society of the
capital. A fluent French scholar, she has
been courted by the leading members of the
legations, and many of her bonmots have
gone the rounds. *
I called upon the great historian to-day
and asked for a photograph of his grand
daughter. He replied that she had had
none taken in this country, and seemed
highly pleased with the match. He thinks
very highly of the Carroll family, and he is
old enough to have been personally ac
quainted with Charles Carroll, of Carroll
ton, who, it will be remembered, died in
1832, who signed the declaration of inde
pendence, who was a Senator from Mary
land, and who was one of the first directors
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com-
pany.
The Carrolls come from the oldest fami
lies of Ireland, and they have intermarried
with the most noted families of England
and America. It was one of the Carroll
girls who, I am told, though not by Mr.
Bancroft, married an Eng ish nobleman,
and who came back to this country to pay
a visit while Andrew Jackson was President.
James Buchanan called at the White House
to see “Old Hickory” to prepare him for the
call of the Duchess, as I think she was. He
found Jackson in dressing-gown and slip
pers and told him that the noted lady would
soon be in to see him. Jackson coolly re
plied that he would be glad to receive her,
and went on with his writing. Buchanan,
who was a martinet in society affairs, no
ticing the unshaven face of the General, his
ragged dressing gown and his slippers all
down at the heel, saw fit to remark that he
thought the President's oostume hardly a fit
one for the reception of such a visitor, and
it would be better for him to spruce up a
little before the call.
“All right,” said Jackson, without raising
liis head, and Buchanan started for the door.
Before he had reached it, Jackson looked
up and said: “Buchanan, there was a man
down in Tennessee who made an enormous
fortune in a very short time.”
“Indeed?” said Buchanan, wondering
what that had to do with the present visit.
“Yes,” continued Jackson, “and he made
the whole of it by attending to his own
business. Good day, sir!”
Buchanan left, and fifteen minutes later
he brought the lady to the \V T hite House.
He found Jackson dressed in exquisite taste,
cleanly shaven and looking the perfection of
the old-style gentleman. The Duchess was
charmed with him, and she afterward re
marked that she had never seen a more
courtly gentleman than Jackson.
The Carrolls have kept their blood pure,
and they are one of the most noted Mary
land families of to-day. Charles Carroll,
who married Susanne Bancroft, lias a fath
er yet living, and I understand that his
father will spend the winter in Washington
and take a house here. If so the newly
married couple will spend their time at the
houses of the two families. They are now
at their home in Howard county, Maryland.
This home is known as Doughorgan Manor,
and it is located at Ellicott City.
Charles Carroll and Susanne Bancroft are
about the same age. They are both fine
looking, and the bride is a lieauty. She is
a slender, well-formed girl, of medium
height, with beautiful shoulders, a graceful
neck, and a demi-brunette face. She has
dark-blue eyes, with well-marked eyebrows
and a rich growth of glossy dark hair,
which she combs in fluffy bangs over her
forehead. Her face is full and plump, with
a touch of squareness about it. The mouth
is sweet and smiling. The forehead is
higher than that of the Venus Medici, the
nose slightly aquiline, and the whole
full of vivacity. She dresses in ex
cellent taste, and was one of the
best-dre'-sed women of Newport last
summer. She is a great friend
of Gen. Sheridan, Chief Justice Waite and
Minister West, and stie and Mrs. Cleveland
are quite intimate. . One of her particular
friends is Secretary Endicott’s daughter.
She has a charming accent in her English,
and speaks it perfectly, although she was
educated in France. She is a devout Cath
olic, goes to confession regularly, and is a
great friend of Cardinal Gibbons, of Balti
more. She is fond of gentlemen’s society,
and has had no lack of it during her society
days in Washington. She is now, I judge,
about twenty-two years old, and she is the
daughter of George Bancroft, Jr., by a
French mother. It is not true that her
father is dead, but her mother died some
years ago.
When she reached young ladyhood and
■was ready to come out into society, M;ss
Bancroft came to see lie • grandfather, and
has been living with him for the past four
years. Mr. Bancroft is very fond of her
and loves her as though she were his own
daughter. The story of her engagement
with the Viscount de Channae Lanzac lias
not been told, and the particulars of it are
not fully known. She met the Viscount as
a child, and, I think, the two lived near
each other in France. Her engagement to
him was announced at Newport last sum
mer, but the society ladies of Washington
say that Miss Bancroft never enthused over
her engagement, and it is doubtful whether
she was ever in love with him. He sent
her, it is said, 5,000f. to buy an engagement
ring, and there is a rumor that out of the
amount she bought two, one of which was a
beautiful turquois and the other a ruby.
As to this, however, I will not be certain,
and I suppose the rings or the money have
been long since sent back to France.
Miss Bancroft has known Mr. Carroll for
several years, though it was not thought
that the two were in love with each other.
The chief part of the courting was done
last summer at Newport, where Mr. Ban
croft hashis cottage “Rosoc iff.” Miss Ban
croft and Mr. Carroll took long walks along
the cliffs together. They met each other at
the Casino and at Bancroft’s cottage, and it
is probable that the engagement was there
made which has since resulted in marriage.
Carroll is a fine-looking young man of about
22. He dresses well and is Becidedly style
ish. He is a slight, well-forme 1 'fellow,
about 5 feet 9 inches in height, with a fine
dark moustache, dark eyes, an aquiline nose
and a very good presence, indeed. He is
well educated, and his father has a large
estate. George Bancroft is very well off,
and is probably worth between $250,000 and
♦500,000. He has two sons living, one of
whom is in Boston and the other —the father
of this girl—in Paris. It is not improbable
that he will provide something for his
granddaughter in his will, though I am told
he has a number of grandchildren.
Speaking of Bancroft, ho is in excellent
health, and his mind is as clear as a bell. I
found him at noon to-day hard at work in
his library, and he told me at the beginning
of my visit that he was very busy and could
spare me only a short time. The informa
tion contained in the above paragraph does
not come from him, and our conversation
related chiefly to his library and his work.
He believes in the philosophy of work, and
he will continue to work until he dies. Upon
my asking him as to his health he said:
“I have enjoyed my youth, and am pre
pared to take old age as it comes. I feel as
well as an old man can, and I have my mat
ters in such a condition that 1 am prepared
to die at any time. My death may come in
three months, and it may not occur for
years. Until it does come I will continue
my labors. You ask me if my history is
completed. I reply that I will continue to
write at it as long as I live. I have kept up
with the times, and have a fair knowledge
of the various administrations. My library,
as you say, is perhaps the finest private
library in the country, and I have a vast
amount of material which can l* found no
where else.”
I here asked him as to his manuscripts,
and he showed me some of the hundreds of
bound volumes which he has gathered from
all parte of the world. While in England,
Holland, France and Germany he was given
access to the State archives of each country,
and, at great expense, had all matters re
lating to the history of America copied.
They are now bound, and the collection is
the only one of its kind in existence. He
lias also copies of thousands of letters of the
Presidents and statesmen of the past. Jack
son gave orders when he died that Bancroft
should have access to all his papers, and
tfiiire are numerous letters of Jackson in ex
istence testifying to this fact. Last year
Mr. Bancroft paid a visit to Nashville, and
he had President Polk’s papers copied for
him. These are now bound in red leather,
and they form a set of volumes as large as
a good sized encyclopedia. He has papers
of Van Buren, and, in fact, everything
worth having that relates to the history of
the United States.
His library contains somewhere between
15,000 and 20,000 volumes. The books are
two rows deep upon the shelves, and several
large connecting rooms are walled with
them. It is supposed that he *is at work
upon a biography of Polk, and, although I
havo not this information directly from him,
a remark which he made about Polk leads
me to believe that it is true. He told me
to-day that he considered Polk one of the
greatest of the Presidents, and added that
he was a very systematic worker. He re
ferred to the great things accomplished in
Polk’s administration as to the financial
system of the country, the annexation of
Texas and other matters. He told me that
he had known jiei-sonslly all the Presidents
since John Adams. He was well acquainted
with President Adams, and upon my asking
him as to Adams’ vanity—l referred to the
saying of Ogle Tayloe, wherein Tayloe
states that Adams had once reproved a
friend who, in conversation, had used the
term, “George Washington and John
Adams,” saying, “You should not say
‘George Washington and John Adams,’
but ‘John Adams and George Washing
ton,’ for it was John Adams who made
George Washington.” To this Mr. Bancroft
replied emphatically: “That story is not a
true one. I know that John Adams had a
high opinion of Gen. Washington, and I
know that he could not have made such a
remark about him. He may have be n
vain, and he undoubtedly had a full appre
ciation of his greatness, but he never made
such a remark as that. He was a very in
dustrious man, was brave and fearless, and
in his letters and papers he speaks very
highly of Gen. Washington.”
I here asked a question as to John Quincy
Adams, and Mr. Bancroft remarked that he
was one of the few men of whom John
Quincy Adams had always spoken well in
his diary. He considers the second Adams
a great man, and gives him full credit for
the ability and knowledge which he un
doubtedly possessed. He thinks, however,
that he would have made a better President
had he not spent so much time abroad, and
referred to his long foreign career and his
foreign education as somewhat warping his
judgment of American matters.
In this interview I was surprised at the
strength, both mental and physical, exhib
ited by Mr. Bancroft. During it he referred
to several books in his library, and his mo
tions were as active as those of a boy. His
voice was strong and his eyesight seemed to
be good. He takes his long rides daily, and
he told me that it did not tire him. He stays
out on horseback from one to three hours
daily and is quite a pedestrian. He once
told me that he thought he could make
thirty miles a day without tiring, and as I
looked at his wiry frame to-day I did not
doubt that he was able to do as he said.
AMERICAN GIRLS ABROAD.
A Somewhat Cynical Apology for the
English Maiden’s Total Eclipse.
Labcruchere in London Truth.
The Lady Mauds and the Lady Beatrices
are sore at finding themselves outshone in
the highest circles by American chits, who,
before coming abroad, were just ordinary
misses in small provincial towns in the Uni
ted States. It is a hard case to be thrust into
the shade by these fair invaders. But sore
ness about it will only spoil good looks.
Why not rather learn the art of war from
the invading belles, who were not reared in
hot-houses, but In public free schools? In a
great degree they have conquered because
they are in the habit of thinking themselves
as good as no matter whom, and of not be
ing shamefaced in the presence of mortals
of uppermost rank.
I don’t think it occurs to the Mauds and
Beatrices that very few uppermost person
ages, in no matter what country, have, or
can have, much conversation. Having had
allowances from their cradles upward there
is no strenuous effort in their lives. And so
that intensity of thought, feeling and will
which makes a man a man, and sublimates
a woman, is wanting in them. Etiquette
throws on them the onus of startling sub
jects of conversation. Having to talk de
haut en has but there is no quick inter
change of ideas. As it was 300 years ago so
it is now. Their lives being flat they must
fall back on buffoonery—a reason why
Schneider’s dressing room at Lee Varietes
was “Le Passage des Princes.” License of
speech is sure to be granted to any ore
whose talk tickles or is droll. There are
few rosebuds in etiquette-ridden courts who
can so converse. But the United States free
schools produce them in thousands. Orig
inality in America is not confined to the
unomaniental sex. The conditions of life
are so different there from what they are in
England, and there is such emancipation
from cant in most of the forms in which it
tyrannizes us that the beauty from Ohio,
Illinois or Delaware is startlingly novel, and
whatever piquancy there is in her talk
comes home with double force.
There are such heaps of Miss Jenny
Chamberlains in the United States that
hardly anyone notices their points. Ameri
cans are astounded at the effect they pro
duce on English noblemen when they come
out at the Riviera or in London. As to the
etiquette invented by Lords Chamberlain
those flowers from over the Atlantic are in
happy ignorance. So they start topics in
colloquies with royal peisonages instead of
waiting for them to be started, and, when
they find they please they go ahead. “Sir,”
or “Madame,” or “Your Royal Highness,”
used as commas are in the conversation of
ordinary persons. Then the young and fair
Americans neglect no advantage which is
derived from attention to personal appear
ance. They know how to dress, and they
grudge no money that they can give to the
best dentists. Being in the habit of dancing
from infancy their gestures are easy and not
angular, nud they always talk distinctly,
and if sometimes with a slight twang, in an
audible voice. •
Our girls often mumble or run on in a
chirruping jabber that really is not sj>eoob.
They, too, often deal in set phrases which
get soon exhausted. I think whoa a British
girl is nice she’s the nicest of any; and
manv more than there are coaid be charm
ing if they could only learn how to speak,
and to move about in an easy, graceful
way. .The American girl has neat features,
a delicate skin, and u fine nervous system.
But in the rest of the organization "nature
has been wanting In generosity. The West
ern woman or girl is a finer human being
than the Eastern. In the Southern Staten
womanhood is nearest to perfection. Wom
en there are reposeful—not precisely amus
ing, but intelligent, sweet and interesting.
