MARRYING TITLES.
Many American girls seem to run
after ti<lea. Sotue UiUie agoy, news
paper printed a list of ’ those who
Had .mareied foreign noblemen, and
whilo the number was not noted
particularly,it pas not small. These
marriages as a rule don’t turn out
well. It is easily understood that
tn,ey do not when it is considered
that on tlie one hand the contracting
pariies are after titles and on the
other they are after money,
Every now and then the unfortu
nate result of these marriages is
made public. The latest instance is
that of the Count di Alentereole, of
It!ay,to Aliss Virginia Knox, of
Pittsburg, Pa. The Count met Aliss
Knox abroad. She was wealthy, and
he was supposed to have title, so it
was a case of love (of .titles and
money) at first sight. They were
married in this country, the union
seemed to be a really happy one.
Just prior to her departure for her
castle abroad, , the young wife ex
pressed her happiness in a very
pretty way. They sailed oil) They
went to Paris aad in a hotel there
hey had a misunderstanding, and
the count whipped her That scene
was followed by others equally as
disgraceful, and a week or two ago
the Count return to America, pre
sumably to gather testimony;for di-
vorce proceedingii. In the mean
time; however, it leaked out that he
was not a counl, hut the gardener of
a count. The young wife is not as
she was.
We trust our Notbcrn sisters, who
run after woman’s rights and other
things of .... that sort . will ... not , become ,
0 ff en( ] c( j jf we say that the craze
f or titles is confined dont’s admire principally good to
them. We a
many things in our Northern sis
ters. and this is one of them. South
.era women aye satisfied to marry
thorn to be nature’s true noblemen.
So after all the Southern women get
both the only titles worth having
and the happines that follows a well
sorted marriage,—Ex.
