politician, and a virtuous woman. She strove to counteract the bad counsels of the mother of the emperor, and bring him back to common sense and duty. She saw that the Romans would not long bear such a shameful yoke, and she induced the emperor, who always retained his respect for her, to nominate his cousin, Alexander Seyerus, his successor. Julia Mœsa attained a happy and respected old age, and was placed by Alexander Seyerus in the list of divinities.
JULIANA,
A singular character, of Norwich, who, in her zeal for mortification, confined herself for several years within four walls. She wrote "Sixteen Revelations of Divine Love showed to a devout Servant of our Lord, called Mother Juliana, an Anchoret of Norwich, who lived in the days of King Edward the Third," published in 1610.
JULIANA,
A woman who possessed great influence at the court of the Mogul Emperors of Hindostan, in the early part of the last century. She was born in Bengal, in 1658, and was the daughter of a Portuguese named Augustin Diaz d'Acosta. Being shipwrecked, she went to the court of the great Mogul, Aurengzebe, whose favour she conciliated by presenting him with some curiosities. Being appointed superintendent of the harem of that prince, and governess of his son, Behadur Shah, she rendered important services to the latter, who succeeded to the crown in 1707, under the title of Shah Aulum. He was obliged to defend his authority against his brothers by force of arms; and in the battle, Juliana, mounted on an elephant by his side, encouraged and animated both him and his troops, and he was indebted to her for the complete victory he obtained. Her services were rewarded with the title of princess, the rank of the wife of Seu Omrah, and a profusion of riches and honours. Shah Aulum often said, "If Juliana were a man, she should be my vizier." Jehander Shah, who became Emperor of Hindostan in 1712, was equally sensible of her merit; and though she experienced some persecution when that prince was deposed, in 1713, by his nephew, she speedily recovered her influence, and retained it till her death in 1733.
JULLIENNE, MADAME DEJEUN,
The date of whose birth we have not been able to ascertain, was born at Rouen, and not originally intended for the stage; but her singing-master, M. Molliot, being struck with her magnificent voice, by his persuasions overcame the scruples of her family, and gained their consent to her appearance as a public singer; this occurred for the first time at a charitable benefit as Alice, in Meyerbere's "Robert le Diable," and as Leonora, in Donizetti's "Favourita." So decided was her success, that she was induced to prosecute her professional studies with great seventy, which led to her engagement at the Academie Royale de Musique. In September, 1845, she came out at the Grand Opera as the successor of the celebrated Falcom, in such characters as Rachel, in Halevy's "Juive;" Valentine, in Meyerbere's "Huguenots;" and Alice, in "Robert le Diable." From Paris she went to Marseilles, and by her popularity there raised the affairs of the theatre from a precarious to a flourishing condition;
