Closing Beenes of an Eventful Lifo Living to See U1er Wrongs Avenged on the Napoloon Dynaty.. -Alpo.st. a Centenarian. [bm the Philiadelphia 'Tilnes. Three-fourths of a century ago, when Jeftorson was President, and Napoleon Bonaparte First Consul of France, Willian Patterson was a loading merchant of Baltimore, and, next to Charlos Carroll of Carrollton, the riohest man in Maryland. His daughter Elizabeth, just eighteen, was the acknowledged belle of Balti more, a girl of striking grace and beauty and reimarkablo accomplish ments. In J803. Jerome Bonaparto arrived at New York in oommand of a French frigate and visited Balti more. As the brother of the famous Napoleon, ho was the lion of society. Here he met Miss Patterson and begun a flirtation, and when his watch-chain became entangled in Miss,Patterson's wealth of hlair, it was accepted by both as a favorable I omen. I-.or father kniowin' that Napoleon illtended royal matches for his brothers, opposed the natch, but the young pair were firm ; and they were married with gre-it c/at on Christmas INve. 1803 Jerome was heols.over-head in love, and forgot France and his brothers. As an ovidence of his attacinent, it is recorded that he offered five hun, dred dollars on omi- occasion for the disc,very of a person wilo had struck Mrs. Bonaparte with a sllowball while she was sleighing. But TROU1I,L WAS BREWING. Ominous -rumors caie across the wat'er- Madame Bonaparte loaring them, s.id "I woi ld rather ba th s wife of Jerome Bonaparte one hone than the wife of any othor m:m for life." Her father lscane irritate3 and wrote to Minister Livings: or of P'iis to endeavor to uscure recogni tion of the marriage. All was inof. fectual. The other brothers were friendly, but Napoleon W.is inflexible. He sent the following order: "Pichon, French consular general in Nm,cv York, is instracted to withhold Je:".. ome's, oupplies and the commanders & French vessels are prohibited from receiving on board the 'yomnme per% soi, to whom he has att:ycheld l.iua. polf. He sent a message also to Jerome, that he would be received at court if he recalled his error, but that 'the young perso4 shall not put her foot on the territory of France.." He also forbade any par-. sh in France from registering Je, rome's "pretended marriagg," sA,LING FOR EUROPE. Jerome and his wife sailed for Europe after some delay--she to remaiu in Hollaand while he was to impcrtilne his brother. They were shipwrecked just after leaving the United States. Another attempt was succesrful. They reached Lie bon, found a French i-an-of-war with orde,zs to tihe commander not~ to suffer tile landing of '"the yogng' person" to whom Jerome had attach ed himself. She sailed for Hollauid and Jerome to Paris -and this was iho be their A.nal parting. Two men., ,of-war met her near A.msterdam and turned her back and she at last found .rest in England. Shortly after, she gave birth to a chi.ld. Jerome went to Paris, but i brother would not recive him, send .ing him a gote asking bim to repent .of a marriage that was null.in a legal and religious view, Jerome being a minor and having married without .consent. Twelve thousand dollars. -a year was o%fered to "lgiss Patter son" If .she would return home and .drop The name of B3onaparte. After anonths of pleatding with his brother:, .during all of ,whuch time Jerome -wrote most tenderly .to his wife, his ,constancy was overcome and be ABANDONED i1JS wIFF, she having returned home. Jerome was made a prince of the Empire, an.admiral, and then King of West,phai.- He married Prin-. ,cess Cabber'ine, of Witrtemburg, but ~Pope Pius VIH. refnsed .to sanction 'this marriage, holding that the one , ~with Miss Patterson was legaj and binding. This event disp.elled .W{adame Patterson.-,.-Bonaparte'sp illpanion. .She existed afterward for thier.pon. rn 1817, cynical but not. b rokemn, she visited Europe and er eated -a sensation, by her elegant a ecomiplishments. In Flor,ence, .in a pioture,gallery, face to face. He jAirned .crimson .with embarrassment, and remarked to Princess Catherine, "That is my former wife." That day he left~ Z1)Qornc. Madame Bionaparto visited Eu rop repeatedly in tho interest of hor son, and to have her knarriagc sanctioned., In 1 8G1 a forlual trial was granted her in Paris. The ease was decided, against hor, doubtless by inspirati.on of the court, but Napoleon ULI..obt;id a decision from his cabinet that the son "Jerome Bonaparte was a legitinate child of Franco." Old Jerome, who was still living, had the indecency to-protest. against his son's logiti macy, and permission to live in France. To this infamous propo.si tion Napoleon replied that young Jerome was undoubtedly legitimate by the laws of France, and lie re cognized linq as such in a formal dacree. Uirs. Bonaparte passed the rest of her life in Bialtiwore. Old age pressed heavily on her, and on the 4.th of -April she died peacefully, at the age of ninety-four years. Thus passed away one of the last land marl : of the "First Empire." She had lived long enough tQ see Napoleon's great fabric totter tc the grollnd, and a republic erected in which there are no emperors or dictators to prevent the ma,riago of any citizn with tho best Aor4can families. Her son was educated in Mary land. After Napoleon's de.th lhe went to Europe, where - he was lionized by his grandmother and all tie other Bontapartes except hi. triifjng father. After the accessior of Napoleon III. Jerome was warm ly received at tllr Tuillerios. He resembled his uncle so nueh that old soldiers would cry " Vim lm1pereur" when they niet him. He mlted in 1870 and left two sons, J!rome Napoleon and Charlea Joseph, both livin;g-the former at oficer in the French army, th< latter a lawyer in Baltimore. nstIj C-A-n.lj.4c.
