The Royal Wedding. Loxpon, March 13. THE MARRIAGE. }

ys a iin

re the reigning families of Great Britain and Germany have been united by the ties of matrimony.

Prince Arthur, the

' . the Princess Louisa Marcaret, the youngest | daughter of Prince Frederiwk Charles of | Prussia, took place to-day at St. George’s | Jhapel, at Windsor, in the presence of a! rilliant assemblage and with all the cere | mony of state. The Archbishop of Canter | bury performed the ceremony assisted by the Archbishop of York and other Bishops frou threnghout Great Britain. The Duke of Connaught was supported by the Prince and the Dake of Cambridge, | Priuce Leopold being prevented, through illness, from attending. The bride was riven away by her father, the ‘* Red Prince.” At the conclusion of the ceremonies the choir sang the ** Hallelujai” chorus, and Veadelssoh..’s Wed lng March pealed forth as th: brice aa be.deyroom left the chapel. Vinle a salute of guns announced the ters nation of the ceremony, the Royal fami y and guests left the chupel. Among those present at the marriage were fer Mijesty the Queen, the King and Quen o° Belzsium, Prince and Princess frecerisk Charles of Prussia, (the parents f tie brie), the Duke of Elinburgh, the Prin-e and Princess of Wales, the Crown Prince and Princess of Germany, and ther members of royalty. After the wed- ling ceremonies the young couple embarked xa bvard tho roval yacht Osborne na bridal tour to the Med.terranean At Geneva ‘ney will be met by the Qaeen, who will hen be on a visit to the Continent. On tis return Prince Arthur will, it is believed, 1 appointed Vicerey of Lreland. The wedding presents sent to Princess Margaret were very humerens.

A DESCRIPTION OF THE BRIDE.

The bride is scarcely eighteen years old. Although not possessed of safiicient charms ‘co be styled a beauty, she is by no means void of attractions. She is talland slender, has sweet large grey eyes, a profusion of ‘air hair and a very clear pink and white complexion —gifts which go very far toward naking a woman produce a good impression on the world. Added to these qualities she is dignified and composed, almost English in her reserve. Princess Louisa is not only devotedly attached to her husband, but lehighted at the thought of her future home in England. She was highly pleased with her visit to England last autumn, when she staved with the Queen at Balmoral for nearly a fortnight. She made frequent ex- cursions into the Highlands and brought home numerous sketches drawn by herself. Her Highness is very skilful with the pencil, and has a particular facility in portraying heads. Some of the likeness done by her ire said to be excellent. The Princess was named after the famous Queen, not unjustly sailed the guardian angel of the Prussian Kingdom. She has resided chiefly at Beri.n and Potsdam. When in the capital her parents live at the Old Custle, in the crook- ed corridors and spacious halls of which she passed the greater part of her youth. After the’ close of the season the family go to Rhein Gleinecke, where the Ped Prince possesses a small casile.

Our Washington Letter.

WasuryverTon, D. C., March 15, 1879. There is a good deal of diversity in opinion as to the probable length of the extra session, as to the orgauization and as tu the fate of the appropriations. The iwo bills that failed are the legislative and the arwy, beth of which had what is called political legislatiou attached to them, whiea the Republican Senate would not agree to. it is thought the Demverats will intreduce separate bills for repealing the supervisor jaw and prohibiting the use of troops at the polls. If the President vetoes these, then they will attich tuem again to the ap- propriation bilis and pass them. It is cx- pected, but not certain, that the President will veto these again. Phen the Democrats tureaten to keep up the fight until the Executive is tired out, if they bave to con- tinne on that line all summer. Many of them predict that the President will be satistied with a show of resistance, when he will surrender avd sign the supply bills. But after all, this may prove to be the least of the things whic! will cause a long session if there isto be ene. Lhe D+ nocrats are troubled about the organization. They claim 418 members, but of these the Green backers claim several, eauvngh, with their own distinct members, to make twenty-two. As the Republicans have 130 members in the new House, the Greenbackers would t .us hold the balance of power and naturally uss it to their advantage. Even coneeding ail the Democrats claim, they will have difficulty in uniting discordant elements, especially should Mr. Blackburn, of Ken tucky, be nominated for Speer, for several of the Northern members swear that they will not support him. Mr. Randall, how- ever, appears to have the inside track. He has made a good Speaker, and the pariy outside of Congress are largely in his favor. Some wiseacres are predicting that, the balloting w.il coatinue for weeks, as it did in 1858-9, and finally result in a compromise between the Greenbackers and Democrats or Greenbackers and Republicans for a division ofthe. spvils. The situation is very interesting if not encouraging to the country, and there will be a large crowd of ottice seekers and spectators at the extra session. Oxivg.

on the motion of

Ra Ar fo NEISENGE 4 r 2 ; 3% -oa | “ : WANT OF CONFISE

IN THE LATE GOVERNMENT.

(CONT NUED.)

It appeared that they were of opinion that one section of the population might be allowed to en oy all the honors and emoluments in connection with public positions in this Prov- ince, while the other must never aspire to them. He (Mr. 8.) had sat side by side with some of his Protestant friends at the public school desk, and prepared hiuseif for the duties of li e under the instruction of the same teachers ; but because he had taken his own way of going to Heaven, they insisted that he must take a lower place than they. Was this the doctrine which the $0-CALLED LIBERALS

preached and placed on their banners? Surely not. He would be ashamed to stand in their position and yo to the country with such a ery as that, and he would therefore leave it to the hon. member for Bedeque to pursue such a course. That hon. geutleman had denounced such conduct at the public meetings which he had attended, but he pursued a different course When the meetings were over.

Mr. Ca.Houn disclaimed cntertaining any such sentiments as had been attributed to him by the hon. Leader of the Opposition,

Mr. Sutttrvay—Such sentiments comin from the hon. member had utterly astound him (Mr. Sullivan). According to the hon, gentleman’s ductriue, Catholic and Protestant children should be educated at the same schools together ; but after that they must be separated one denomination might reap all tie public honors and rewards within their reacn, while the other must stop short and take the lowest positions in the country. Why? Because the hon. member had stated that the School Question was not yet settled.

Mr. Suttivan—Well, what did the hor. member say? Did he think the School Ques- tion settled, or not? If the Government ap- pealed to the people at the polls, before sur- rendering the reins of power to the Opposi- tion, they had two matters to bring before them, of which they would try to make their boast, One was the action which they had taken in claiming the share of the

FISHERY AWARD to which this Province was eutitled. If the friends of the Local Government were to-day in power at Uttawa, the hon. Commissioner of Public Works would peoh, pooh the course which he had pursued respecting this matter; but as such was not the case, he songht to make some capital out of it. The hon, gentle- man had little faith in his ownecry. Much as the Government professed to be able to do, vhe Opposition, he (Mr. Stewart) well knew could do’a great deal more. Another matter matter which the Government would take to country was the

SCHOOL QUESTION,

They would, by a1] means in their power, endeavor to revive and resuciate that question, and try to show that the non-Sectarian School Law was in danger. ‘[hey well knew that it was not the intention of the Opposition to revive the School Question, because the lat- ter were Satisfied with the non-Sectarian prin- ctple of the Education Act. No matter what Government came into power, even if the whole of its nine members were Roman Catho lies, they

WOULD NOT INTERFERE

with the non-Sectarian principle. But sucha state of matters could never happen. The Protestants of this Province would always have a majority in the Executive Council. In- deed no Goverument could be formed that would not consist of a majority of Protestants, He had never known a Goverament in this Province to contain more than three Catholic members, and he didnot think the Catholic members of the House expected to be repre- sented in the Executive by a LARGER NUMBER of their co-religionists. With six Protestants in the Government anda large majority of Vrotestants in the House, would hon. gentle- men on the Govcrament side of the House assert that the school question would be in danger, and that they intended to keep up the ery accordingty ? Lid the Hon. Leader of the Government mean to say that because the four Libera!-Cunservative members bad . ACCEPTED SEATS in his Governmcnt and sunk their political party views for the time being—and they could mot have done anything else under the eircumstances—-they uncersteod and intended to remain with him end his party for all time to come, even after the school question was completely and finally settled? The hon. gen- tleman could not have imagined that such an understanding EVER EXISTED

between those hon. members and himself!

the Government and the Commissioner of Public Works would have shown more dis- cerpment if they had allowed the hon. mem- ver for West River to play such antics, instead of doing so themselves. He was afraid that the hou. member for Port Hill had

FORGOTIEN THE FRIENDS of his former days, on the Opposition side of the House, and that the how. gentleman had got inte bad company. He sympathised with the hoa. member when he looked at the posi- tion in which he (ir. Yeo) had placed bim- self. The (vovernment had tried very hard to force the speech wita which the session had been opened upon the Opposition, and declared that the latter were offering an insult to His Honor the Lieutenant Governor, because they refused to
