Many of the officers have been threat- ened with death and obliged to fly.

Advices from Catalonia give the following state- ment of the strength of the Carlists in that import- ant principality:—Province of Gerona—The chief, Babalis, 400 men; Estartus, 370; Huget, 200; Pil- ferer, 150; Oosta, 100; Barrancot, 70; Soliver, 60; otal, 1,800, Province of Lerida—Torres, 80 men; -Carmet, 90; Vea, 50; total, 220.

Province of Tarragona—Sanz, 150; Lendros, 100, with a number of very small bands, numbering, perhaps, 400, The Young Bourbon King, or “Pre- tender,” and His Crown Claims. Don Carlos, the elder, and first opponent of {sabella the Second, after his final departure from Spain, lived for some time in France. In 1845 he abdicated in favor of his son, the Conde ae Montemolin, whose name may be recollected in connection with certain abortive attempts to raise an Knglish loan for the purpose of invading Spain and recovering the throne of his fathers. The young Pretender died suddenly in 1861, with- out issue, and his reversionary rights descended to his brother, Prince John. This Prince never made any attempt to claim his inheritance, but on the morrow of the revolution Reine Queen Isabella was deposed he ceded pretensions to his son Don Carlos, the existing representative of legitimate sovereignty in Spain, and who now, as we are told, has resigned his claim in favor of his own son as king, with a regency. The rae retice who resigns inherits by birth all the traditions and associations of the Bourbon tace. His mother was an Archduchess of Este, a daughter of the Duke of Modena and a sister of the Comte de Chambord. His wile is the sister of the extled Duke of Parma, and granddaughter of the Duchess of Berry. Don Carlos’ lite has been chiefly spent in Styria, and he is understood to have been brought up as a devout believer in divine right and the supremacy of the Church over the state. THE ROYAL BOURBON REGENT AND HIS WIFE. It ig said that Don Alfonso, younger brother of Don Carlos, the Regent by nomination, has won all hearts in Ja Niévea, is with him. pantaloons, with black braid, hessian boots, a ‘white pelisse and boing (the round cap worn by the Cartists). The Princess also wears the white dotna, with a long gold tassel falling over her icit shoulder. At San Quirce they were received with every honor, and were attended by the chiefs Torres and Sabalis, generals holding their commis- sions from “His Majesty Don Carlos.” As for Don Cartos himself, no one professes to know with certainty what he 1s doing or where he is. Ever since the affair of the Oroquieta fight be seems to have pasoneares as completely as Prince Arthur of the legend, witnout, however, his most enthusiastic followers attributing to him any very ‘Marvellous exploits.

His princess, Dona Maria de | The Prince wears red | NEW YOKK HERALD, FRIDAY, MARCH 98, 1873,—TRIPLE SHEET. A NEW ENGLAND WEDDING . Parson Talmage, of the Tabernacle, Marry- ing a Stamford Oouple in Masquer- ade Oostume in the Brooklyn Academy of Musio, Three Thousand Peoplo Present to Witness the Ceremony. They Are to Receive a Piano and Sewing Machine as Wedding Gifts, In Brooklyn all devout people who prefer to have their religion served up with Cayenne pepper mixed | with rose leaves go to the Tabernacle, of which the Rev. Dewitt Talmage is pastor. Some time since the ark of the covomant was destroyed by fire, and at present there is in progress at the Brooklyn Aca- demy of Music a ladies’ fair, the proceeds of which, itis understoed, are to be devised toward the build- ing of another and more gorgeous tabernacle than before, By his admirera Mr. Talmage is believed to be far superior as a preacher to his prototype, Spurgeon, who holds forth in the borough of Southwark, on the east side of the Thames. Parson Talmage is a sort of moire an- tique Presbyterian, and his congregation, an immense one, numbers over twelve thousand per- sons. Half of the pretty girls who were wont to attend Plymouth church have deserted it, and are now steady communicants at the shrine of the fiery and poetical Parson Talmage, who holds the same rank in the church that Walt Whitman holds among the muses, Some idea may then be formed ef the excitement that was caused im the breasts of 3,000 fair tadies of Talmage’s chureh, who are in nightly attendance at the fair atthe Brooklyn Academy, when it was announced that a wedding would take place last evening on the stage of that histrionic building, and that Rev. Mr. Talmage would officiate and join two loving hearts in the holy bonds of wedlock. The marriage some people might suspect to be an advertising dodge to draw a crowd to the fair at an extra admission, but all doubts as to its probability, as well as its authen- ticity, were set at rest by the appearance of the following ticket, which was sold at the door of the Academy to the thousands who sought admission last evening :— Qrenceeee ALE OONIIO AENEID EOE NEEL HEDLAND YE GRAND WEDDYNGE In ye Anticnte Costume, AT YE ACADEMIE OF MUSICK, On ye eveninge of Thursday ye th daye of ye Monthe of March, A.

There was a crush of satins and velvets, a marvellous combination of perfames and a torrent of small talk, “What will she wear, I wonder” asked one young lady who evidentiy believed that marrying and giving in marriage was the chief business of life. “What Kind of a fellow ts the bridegroom; is he | solid ?”” remarked an excited dry goods clerk. “J suppose Mr. Talmage will give them his piessing and send them home in a truck at the ex- pense of the church,” suggested an individual whose irreverence was only excelled by the bloom- ing glare of his red scarf. And here let it be understood that an adver- tisement had been inserted in the HERALD for some days, in which it was stated that any respectable couple who wished to be married free of cost and in costume oi a hundred years age on the stage of the Brooklyn Academy of Music, would be provided with the necessary cestumes and outfit tempo- rarily by the managers o/ the Tabernacle tree. To this advertisement there were fifty-two answers, and it was necessary, notwithstanding the desire for notoriety always to be found | among a free and enlightened American public, | to select one couple. The happy twain who drew the lucky number were James Willetts and Minnie Willetts, of Stamford, Conn., who held, antil last night, the relation of cousins. Costumes supposed to represent the New England of one hundred years ago, Bat whicn in reality were suggestive of every land under the sun for the fifty years antecedent to the battle of New Orleans were loaned bya masked bail costumer, who was decidedly anxious to have his name printed in the Hergip, but who must, for obvious reasons, remain forever in ob- scurity. For one hour the happy couple were to be gilded with the eifulgence of borrowed plumes, and then they were to relapse into their normal and bucolic Connecticut apparel. The doors of the Academy, which has a very handsome interior, swung open and displayed the stage, decorated as it would have been in Athens or Alexandria, 1,500 years ago, for the games that were to follow. The crowds of well-dressed men and women and 8 and girls swarmed in and took their seats. burst of music, wild and tri- umphant, broke from the brazen instruments in “the orchestra, and adead silence followed for a moment, only to be succeeded by the half-whis- pered gossip, 80 dear to all feminine hearts. Then solemnly up the main aisle—shall it be called an aisle under the circumstandées—proceeded @ hetrogentous procession of about thirty persons clad iu the costumes of a hundred years gone by. First came the bridegroom, a raw country lad of twenty years, in a blue velvet coat trimmed with silver binding, a white satin vest edged with gold and small gilt buttons, and white silk stockings and smalls, His hair was powdered a la Louig juinze, and he wore @ qeue and black velvet shoes, with buckles. From his throat depended a lace handkerchief such as the elder Adams, most erfect gentleman of his time, might have worn. Then came the bride in a gorgeous pearl satin dress trimmed in all the fanciful trickertes of the Palais Royale, and looped up with ornaments. A point lace veil covered her lovely shoulders, and her dark brown hair was powdered to the consistency of the summit of Mont Blanc on a Wintry day. » Her iair hands were encased in borrowed white kids, and she wore the white high-heeled shoes ef the Regency. “Isn’t she sweet?” cried a hundred voices. Fo!- lowing her came the best men and the bridesmaids— the former having their hair powdered and wearing white silk stockings and breeches, buckles on their shoes and laughter in their eyes,and the brides- maids wearing Dolly Varden and Wattcau dresses, looped up, their hair powdered a la Pompadour, and their fine shoulders aderned with salmon-colored and white crépe shawis. The coitfures were surrounded by large horn combs such as our greatgrandmothers wore, and the en- tire party wore a look of blissful and eager expec- tation, The names of the ladies and gentlemen attendant on the bride and bridegroom, whe fol- lowed them arm-in-arm, were as lollows:—Mr. E. Latham and Mrs, McFariane, Mr. W. H. Haws and Mrs. W. H. Haws, Mr. DeForest Voorhies and Mrs. Clark, Mr. D, Seeley and Miss Matilda Hawxhurst, | a delicious and biooming blonde; Mr. and Mrs. Wendover, Mr. and Mrs. Nichols, Mr. Ames and Miss Sukey Clark, Mr. Henry Latham and Miss Stontenburgh, Mr. A. G. Jones and Mrs. Waller and Mr. and Mrs. Paul Stout. Mrs. Clark was most distinguished for conversational ability, | and Mr. Jones for gallant ana knightly bearing, al- though his armor did not fit him we! As the happy party reached the base of the stag at the ena ‘of the passage, the orchestra struck up Men- deissohn’s Magnificent “Wedding March,” and the bridegroom and bride, followed by all their attend- ants, mounted the stage and formed a wide semi- circle, extending nearly the whole width of the roscenium, the bride and bridegreom remaining In the centre, faced by the brilliant audience. In another moment, amid a burst of Spplause, the Rev. De Witt Talmage ascended the 31 , & pale, nervous and intelligent-loeking man, and, silence having been obtained, the oride and bridegroot at @ signal made them by the pastor, advance aione from the semicircle and stood before Mr. Talmage, who was ready to marry them. Mr. Tal- mage, who See, had his back to the audi- ence and was dressed in plain black clothes, began the marriage service of the Presbyterian Church in a low tone, and the responses were made in an in- distinct manner by the ed couple, who were mar- ried without a ring, according te the Presbyterian fashion. “For better or for worse, until death doth you part,’ whispered Mr. Talmage, and then, not feeling himself, from his Geap emotion, equal to the task, he said to an old gentleman with white whiskers, “Mr. Latham, please to kiss the bride for me."’’ The old gentieman rushed forward with the agility of 8 mountain goat and smacked the bride, and all the bridal atteudants shook hands, several of the gentlemen kissing the bride in turn. Tnen tne audience applanded, the bridesinaids went vack to the New Kngland Kitchen in the fair, the bride and bridegroom Marcted ont solemnly into an anteroom, where a plentiful New England wupper of pork and beans and ice cream had been provided for them, and alter the excitement had subsided they divested themselves of their borrowed finery, and this morning they will take the New Haven train for the pretty little town of Stamford, Venn., there to live forever in peace and clover, And so ended the strangest marriage ever performed in Brooklyn. The congregation of Mr. Taimage’s church are to rovide a piano and @ sewing machine for the appy couple. PROVIDENCE PRINTING CLOTH MARKET, PRovipencs, R. 1., March 27, 1873.

When Byron, after his separation from his wife, took his departure from England, in the year 1816, amarting from the wounds of a thowsand taunta and writh- ing under the load of odtum which was heaped upon him—unjustly, as be assersed—he went to Switzerland, and thence journeyed to Ventce, Pisa and Ravenna. At Ravenna he lived in the moat inti- mate relations with the then youthful Countess Guto- Cioli, @ lady endowed with an tmaginative nature and of @ poetic temperament atmost akin to his own. When her father and brother—the Counts Gamba—were expelled from Ravenna for politi- cai reasons Lord Byron took the whole family under his protection and removed to Pisa. Here the Countess followed and joined him. The poet just then lost, by death, his illegitimate child, Alie- gra, and his friend Shetley. These events rendered his mind still more gloomy. In the year 1822, the residenge at Pisa becoming dangerous to tne Gam- the Countess’ iat and Byron removed to Geneva, where they all—the Countess, her brothers, father and the rest—remained until 1823, waen the cause Of Greece drew Byron to that country.

In France she was married, some years since, to the Marqui: Boissy, a well known legislator and statesman of ‘he last Empire. In the ye 1871 the Marquise de Boissy (Countess Guiccioli) definitety left Paris to spend the remainder of her days on her beautiful estate atSettinello, near Florence, in which city Count Gamba, her only surviving brother, re- sided, Her hotelin the Cité de Londres, so well known for twenty years as a place of reunion for all that was distinguished in the world of tashion, art and science, was dis- mantied and leit fora term of years; and her picturesque villa at Luctennes sold, The latter was occupied by the Prussians during the si of Paris, and the house almost ruined intervally.

Soren the entire we of the room, leaving only space enough for two beautiful three-quarter portraits of Mme. de Pom} ur and Mme. du Barry, presented by the fair originals to some ancestor of the Marquise— were removed before the arrival of the Germans, It would be impossible, it was said, to describe the accumulated filth left in the villa by the Prussians. No less than seventy cart loads were taken from the rooms. The departure of the Marquise from Paris deprivea the city of the last of its salons, and one which had continued uninterruptedly since 1848, In her rooms were discussed, by the Ministers themselves, the probabilities of Louis Philppe permitting the reform banquets; there Prince Napoleon was constantly seen when candi- date for the National Aen and afterward for President. It may be sald that scarcely a celebrity in Europe has not, at one time or an- other, been seen in her drawing room, Habitués thereof were ceiebritics like Lord Paimerston and Cobden, the Marquis d’Azeglio and Professor Mat- teucci, Lord Malmesbury and.

Few houses were better adapted to entertaining, and the superb dining room might have well served for a ballroom. Selections from the best pieces by the best actors in costume, recitations by Ristori and others of like rank, music by the great artistes, teats of magnetism by some one who was just then the talk of the Paris world, legerdemain, amusements olevery kind, in fact, were there at different times, but dancing was entirely out of place,although there was always a fair sprinkling of yeung people. The works of art which graced the walls, by Watteau, Boucher, Géricault and others were all sold, the Marquise taking none of the pone to Italy, ex- cepting the fine portraits of herself and husband, by Fagnani. The Marquis left the whole of his vast fortune to his wile during her lite; at her death it will be divided among the heirs of his only daughter, the late Duchess de Rohan, The Mar- quise in her seventieth year snowed no en- vious gray thread in ner auburn tresses, and her teeth were as sound and even those a woman of twenty.

Daring the reign of Louis Philippe he held an office of state, afterward resuming his historical studies, which, from that time forward, he pur- Sued until his death. In 1840 he published a ‘ory of the Gauls under Roman rule, and, later, other works of much interest and value. Duke De Delacariie.

Her Letters to the Deceased | Gentleman, Last evening the Brooklyn detectives gave evi- dence of animation in the matter om which they have been engaged since Friday last, in ferretting out the woman with whom Charles Goodrich was known to have been intimate during several months preceding hts death. This circumstance was elicited in this manner:—Shortly before eight o’clook a hack stopped in front of the Central Office, corner of Gourt and Livingston streets, and Officers Folk aad Videto alighted from it, and assisted a female trom the vehicle, THE PRISONER. The woman, from a glance, as she was hurried into the office, lent the impression to the writer that her age Was about thirty years. She was rather slightly built, of medium height and was what might be termed a passabie-looking. woman. She was attired in a dark red dress and wore a black velvet hat. The lady prisoner was hmmedi- ately led into the private office of Chief Camp- bell, with whom she remained oloseted for an hour and a half, nome of the anxious. repre- sentatives of the press being allowed te intrude during the interview. Mr. W. W. Goodrich was early on the scene, in company with Coroner Whitehill, They were admitted to the conterence, Chief Campoell, upon making his appearance, re- marked that it was like drawing teeth to get answers to the questions propounded to the lady. He stated, however, that she said she was EMPLOYED IN MAKING SHIRTS, in New York, but refused to give her real uame, and the chief declined to divulge the name which she did give him. He asked fer whether she’ knew Mr. Goodrich, and she replied that she did and that sae saw him last on the 20th of last month. He asked her whether there had not been some difficulty in her house in New York between the deceased and some men, when she replied that there had been, Jad that “she had put Charlie away from them.” The prisoner admitted that she w: AT MR. GOODRICH’S HOUSE IN DEGRAW STREET on the 20th of last month. The following con- versation took place between the Chief and this woman :— Q. What time did you go to work last Saturday morning’ A. I can't say; probably about eleven o'clock; our usual time is eight o'clock. Q. How came you to be so late on Saturday morn- ing? A. I don’t know; I can’t aay why it was. Q. Where were you on Friday night last’ A. I don’t remember, Q. Isn't it very strange you can’t tell ! 1 think I was in the house. Q. Madame, while you and this man were so very intimate and he wasat your house every night, and you and he have been to Brooklyn, in his house in Degraw street, it is very strange to me that you have never beea to Brooklyn about this man’s death. Now, why did you absent yourself? A pause ensued, but the woman finally an- swered:— “{ DIDN'T WANT TO SEE HIM in that way.” Q. Was there not ar ‘her object that kept you away? I think there wus if you will only teil it; haven’t you been to Brook!yn since his death? A. and lived A. Weill, . When you saw in the papers at the shop avout Charles Goodrich being wurdered did it stop you trom going on with your work’ A. No, sir, q. Itnever gave youa thought” a. Well, I thought about it, of course. Q. You didn’t come over to see your friend? A, Idid net. Q. Where do you live? A. I live in New York, and work under an assumed name, The Chief remarked that he knew the woman's name, but declined to disciose it for the present, He said that Videto and Folk arrested her upon information which he had received yesterday morn- ing. The arrest was made about six o'clock. Sne acknowledged to the Chicf that she was marricd, but DID NOT LIVE WITH HER HUSBAND. ¥ How many times have you been to this house in Degraw street? A. Three times in all; the last tine [came over we went into the honse and Mr, Goodrich struck a light and I looked around. q. What was your object in going to the house? A. Well, he said he owned the houses, and I did not believe hin; I made the remark that bis room was furnished very scantily, and he said, “1 keep bachefor’s halt.’? Q. Ldon’t want to keep you here five minutes more than is necessary. A. I feel bad because I did not see my mether beiore | went away. Q. Well, you don’t give us any explanation of this thing. You don’t seem inclined to talk, except to answer questions put to you. | sympathize with | your mother, too, A. Well, I CANNOT BE ANY WORSE OFF THAN I AM, and if 1 have got to stay here I will stay. q. Well, you have given me two false stories Now, if you will tell me where she does live J will send over to her house. The woman then wrote the address on a piece of paper and requested the Chief to send over to her. Tne Chief replied that he would, and did so. The prisoner @lso sent her mother some money and re- quested? that her mother should not be informed of her whereabouts. The woman then continued to converse with Mr. Campbell, and said, “Wher L was there in Degraw street last I said to M rich, ‘I guess you're married.’ He said, ; butl very foolishly got intimate with a girl im New York. 1 will shake her, though.’’” The Chief subsequently made the following ADDITIONAL STATEMENT. When I arked her why she did not, aiter reading in the newspaper of the death of this man, come to Brookiyn and see her old and dear friend, she said she did not know. “Well,” I said, “there must have been SOME OBJECT IN YOUR NOT COMING.” * She said, “1 didn’t want to look at him in that condition.” “Well, did you form any theory of how he came to his death!” “1 thought he was killed.” “By @ man or a Woman?” She said, “KILLED BY A MAN—AN ENEMY that followed him, home.”” i said, “Now, give us the exact reason why you did not come to Brooklyn. You know all about that enemy. Now, give us the exact reason why you did not come to Brooklyn and see your old friend. You had @ reason; give us the reason.” pressed her on that very much. She said, “Well, if }cau'tdoa person @ good turn, 1 don’t want to do a bad turn.” ‘The prisoner was found at 22 Orchard street, New York.

From all circumstances which have been, published there are very iew who do not believe that Mr. Goodrich was murdered and his body placed in the position im which it was discovered in order to cenvey the idea that he had taken his own | life.

To- day resolutions were adopted in favor of an organi- zation of the producing classes, and recommend- ing farmers all over the’ country to kecome members of some local farmers’ club. It was also resolved that the taxes charged on the people by the national, State and local governments are op- pressive and unjust, and far beyond tne needs of an economical administration of governmental affairs; that = the tariff, laws of the United States should be so amended as to place salt and lumber on the free list; that railroad freights and fares shoulda be limited by law to @ just and fair sum; that the practice of voting municipal bends is pernicious in its effect and calculated to bring bankruptcy and ruin on the people; that giving banks a monopoly of the nation’s currency, thereby compelling the people to pay enormous rates of interest, seven- tenths of which is collected from larmers, is but little less than legalized robbery. A preamble was adopted, setting forth the wants and needs ofthe farming and industrial classes, and'pledging themselves, in the accomplishment of their desires, to ignore all political influences and prejudices and to support only such men for ollice as are known to be true to the farmers’ interests, In the evening @ permanent State organization was effected, to be Known as the Farmers’ Co-oper- ative Association, and having subordinate associ- ations in each county of the State, The session lasted until a late hour at night, and was one of the most enthusiastic mectinys ever held tn the State, At eleven o'clock P.

The Friends of the California Senator in San Francisco Indignant at the Al- leged Charges Against their Represen- tive. SAN FRANCISCO, March 26, 1873. ‘The Washington telegrams reviving the charge that Senator Casserly’s election, over five years ago, was tainted with bribery, and that such is the general sentiment of the people here, éxcite only surprise and indignation. The reports are believed to be adroitly imposed upon Eastern press correspondents by the agents of some of the lobby schemes which Mr. Casserly aided in killing during iast Congress, So far from the Bank of California having purchased Mr. Oasserly’s election, John Conness was notoriously the Senatorial candidate of the bank and the railroad influence. Casserly's election was the result of practical co-operation in the State election between the democrats and a large number of republicans, who bolted the noml- nation ef George ©. Gorham for Governor, and who were opposed to Cenness for Senator. This combination of circumstances, without any agreed coalition of opposing political elements, re- sulted in the election of Haight ior Governor and Casserly for Senator, The Legisiature which elected the Senator had these bribery charges before them at the time; but the Senate, which had a majority of republicans, none of whom voted for Cass- erly, indefinitely postponed the consideration of the whole matter more than five years ago. His Iriends appeal to his whole course in Congress as the concivsive answer to anything imputing to him subserviency to capitalists in Cailifornia or elsewhere. No reputable California journalist of either party questions Caéserly’s personal purity and ihtegrity. NEW JERSEY EDUCATIONAL MATTERS, Last evening, at Clarke's Opera House, in Eliza- beth, before a large audience, including the mem- bres of the Union County Teachers’ Institute, which has been in session for some days past, Mayor F, w.
