Foreign Husbands.

Lucy Hooper’s Paris Letter. Italian gentlemen as a rule make far better husbands for American girls than do their French confreres, and so thepromlsed brideof the young Prince Buspolf will probably do far better than married a Montmorenci or a Be Bohan. The young lady in question is a Miss Differ, formerly of Springfield, 111. Her rather was the United States Consul at Bremen during the last years of the Presidency of Mr. Buchanan. I have never seen the bride-elect, who is said to be both pretty and accomplished, but I have met Prince Buspoli in society. He is a pleasant looking but rather sby young mah, and bis private character IS reputed to be as far above reproach as the length of his pedigree and the antiquity of his title above suspiciqu. Queen Isabella of Spain will confer upon him the rank and privileges of a Spanish grandee onjbis marriage, aud there are some very old uncle’s with immense fortunes looming in/ Uie background, so tliat altogether fbo match appears to be one of extraordinary promise for tne young American wife:' I hope sincerely that my fair countrywoman will be happy. Meantime I am prepared and, indeed authorized to state that Miss Eva Mackay is not engaged to any one, neither to the Couut de Haroourt, nor to the Marshal de MacMalion’s eldest, son, Patrice, nor to any other person whatever,. The young lady in question is only just lfl, and her parents have no idea of marrying her after the French fashioa to any titled personage in existence. Ido not think that while there are houses, and mines, and pictures, aud other purchasable objects iu existence, that our intelligent and sensible bonanza king and his charming wife Will ever cars to expend any portion of their vast wealth m buying that very eostly aud unsatisfactory aitiole, a' French son-in-law. ;
