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. The Engadine Bouquet. Atkinson s new perfume.
