i v. v-i Y. 8“ Vt-n. or, who was inMex- -
\o during the entire period of the ;
'renc-Ii intervention. Mrs. Steven- >
son says of a romantic character in
French history:
Genera! Bazaine was at this time
! riseri £ror: ' tto ranks * having won the j
hid honors stop by step upon j
I battlefield, at first by his courage, J
later by Liu remarkable military j

He was a plain locking man, short 1

an intelligence of no moan order,
and, despite a certain coarseness of
thought and expression too com-
mon ., mol:g Frenchmen, a soul upon
wilich ffae romance of life had im-
preyed its mark in lines of fire.
Tho story went 1 that, when colo
a
nel, he had in Spain come across a
little girl of great beauty and per¬
sonal attractions who seemed to
him out of place amid her surround¬
ings, He picked up tfie little wild
rose as it grew on the roadside and
oonceivcd the notion of transplant¬
ing it into good, rioh soil, and of
giving it its share of sunEhino. He
took the child to Paris, where he
left her in a convent to be educated.

Her charm won for her many
friends In the circle which hie posi¬
tion entitled her to enter, and her
death, which ooourred under pecul¬
iarly distressing circumstances,
soon after his promotion to the
command of the army in Mexico, was
a cruel blow.
Tho news of her death reached the
general while away from the capital
on the brilliant campaign which
added the greater part of the coun¬
try to the projected empire (Novem¬
ber, 1863). After a funeral mass,
which he hoard with his officers, he
retired to his tent, arid, alone, fought
that hardest oi all battles and con-
quered hia own heart. In a few
days ho returned tr. his duty, and
po one ever know what bad passed
in his innermost soul.
Two years later a ball was given
at the quutiier general. Bazaine,
who had lately been promoted to
the rank of marshal (1864), had
stopped for a moment to say a few
words, when one of bis guests, a
young Mexican girl who was waltz¬
ing by, suddenly stopped rear us,
having torn her dress. Pins were
produced, the damaged mine was
repaired, aud the girl passed on.
“Who in itt" asked the marshal,
evidently much struck with her ap¬
pearance. “It is extraordinary,"
he muttered, "how much -she re¬
minds me of my wife. " He looked
distrait, and shortly after excused
himself and wandered off in the di¬
rection Mile, do la Pena had taken.
The courtship was a short one,
Maximilian, in order to facilitate a
union which he deemed tube in tho
Interest of his government, gave tho
young girl as a dowry the palace of
Sah Costae, valued at $1-00.000, and
thus was May united to December.
Two children were born to the mar¬
shal, one of them in Mexico, and
never was father prouder of his
young wife and of her offspring than
was the marshal.

Since the days ot Sir Isaac New¬

his father aud schoolmasters us “a
