The Duke of Northumberland was unavoidably absent,
and the Duke of Devonshire was prevented by indispo-
sition from attending,
The dejet2ner was served at two o'clock. The prepara-
tions had been such as can only take place in princely
establishments like that of the Duke of Sutherland. In
the centre of the table was placed a magnificent goteau
de note, of very beautiful design—the cake being sup-
ported by figures of the nine .Muses and forming the
base of a trophy temple, from which sprung a tripod
filled with rare exotics. Among the exquisite works of
foreign art which adorned the table, one from a British
hand was conspicuous for its chasteness, elegance, and
purity of taste—a dessert service, in Parian and porce-
lain, a combination entirely slew—presented to the
young bride, in token of his very grateful respect to
her Ladyship's family, by Mr. Minton. The centre piece
of this magnificent service was three feet in height.
It consisted of a perforated basket with green festoons
pendant, supported by three exquisitely modelled
figures, representing Love, Peace, and Abundance. Tho
pedestal bore three allegorical gilt trophies correspond-
ing with three illustrative subjects,
in high relief on a
Parian vase, upon which shields of her Ladyship's arms
were beautifully emblazoned. Four baskets en suite,
resting on figures representing Pomona, Ceres, and Flora,
and a variety of fruit dishes of similar design, completed
the service. Two Parian statuettes of Lords Albert and
Ronald Leveson Gower, which were upon the table were
greatly admired as wonderful works of art and life-like-
nesses. Fruits and lowers, in such abundance as Trent-
ham only could supply, graced the table. Strawberries
of the finest flavour hung in trusses from the various
dishes, and newly ripe cherries were plenteous as in the
height of summer.
At the table the Duke of Sutherland had the Mar-
chioness of Westminster on his right hand, and the
Duchess of Norfolk upon his left. Tho Duchess of
Sutherland was supported by the Marquis of Westmin-
ster and the Marquis of Lansdowne.

During the dejcuner,
The Earl of CARLISLE, having bean called upon, rose
and said—Ladies and Gentlemen—l might almost say,
uncles, aunts, and cousins—the command I have received

may be allowed an appeal to our experience under this
very roof, that marriages among near kinsfolk are not
those least happy in their resulta. When we look at
the bride and bridegroom on the present happy occa-
sion—the manly presence and the high-bred bearing,
and the calm gentleness and beauty, which have this
day been united in the holy bonds of matrimony, I
think we may fairly consider them an indication of the
spirit within, and the mirror of their future destinies.
Let us drink to the health of Lord and Lady Constance
Grosvenor.
The Noble Earl's remarks elicited loud approbation,
and the toast was responded to with three times three
hearty cheers.
The bridal cake was now immediately handed round
to the guests, who soon after rose and retired to the
drawing-rooms. At this period an opportunity was
affordad to witness the very costly and mac,rnificent
presents made to the bride. Amongst these were her
Majesty's gift of a diamond stomacher, and a splendid
tiara of diamonds, contributed by the Marquia of West•
minster, together with a necklace having a flee opal and
ruby and diamond pendant, from the Duke of Sather-
land; a very beautiful bottle, covered over with gold,
from Lord Clifden; and a jewelled butterfly necklace of
rubies and emeralds from the Duchess of Argyll. In
these presents, however rich and costly
the material, the
artistic skill of their elaboration and execution seemed
to vie with the generosity of the donors. The Duchess
of Sutherland's present sena an ebony dressing case,
with gold mountings,
—a recherche work.
At halt'-past three o'clock the company arranged them-
and elaborate turquoise ornaments
selves on the grand staircase to witness the departure
of the bride and bridegroom. As her Ladyship descended
she affectionately
embraced each of her relatives in sue-
cession, nor passe.]
without some kind greeting even the
"
humblest of the domestics, all of whom seemed eagerly
on the watch to catch the
st word of home frum the
lips of one they had loved so well,
The noble bridegroom having handed his fair bride
into a travelling carriage, which, drawn by four gaily
caprisoned horses, and preceded by outriders, was iu
attendance, leapt in
himself, and the happy pair drove
ff h
o amidst the
cheers of the crowd, who had patiently re-
mained to give them a!
Prtreeting.
A loud burst of langlitaurin wtsg occasioned by the act of
some enthusiastic attendant, who, with a mixed feeling
of kindness, humour, and superstition, rushed from be-
hind the stalwart porter as the carriage drove off! and
threw an old shoe for luck" after the receding pair.
It is the intention of the happy pair to pass tai: honey
moon at Clifden, this
- noble Duke's seat in
shire.
