MARRIAGE OF THE GRAND
DUCHESS MARIA AND THE DUKE DE
LEUCHTENBERG.

ST. PETERSBURGH, AUG. Io.—The Journals of this
city publish a ukase, addressed by the Emperor to the
Senate, together with a supplementary order relative to
the apanage which the Grand Duchess Maria is to have.
The former document is as follows :
" To the general and perfect satisfaction of our whole
Imperial house, our well-beloved daughter the Grand
Duchess Maria Nicolajewna has married the Most
Serene:Duke Maximilian of Leuchtenberg, and is to
settle in our empire with her husband. On the occasion
of so desirable an event we have considered it our most
gratifying duty to establish the position of her Imperial
Highness upon a permanent foundation, and in a manner
suitable to the dignity of her high station. We con-
ceive that a million of roubles fixed by the organic law
of the Imperial family as the marriage portion of a
Grand Duchess, cannot by any means suffice for the
support of an establishment, and therefore much less
for insuring the welfare of her posterity, should it please
Providence to bless her with it. Seeing, by the ac-
counts of the Minister of the Imperial Court, that in
the present situation of the apanage estates, the reve-
nues thence arising do not only suffice for all the pur-
poses for which they are intended by the organic law,
but that there are besides considerable sums in hand
towards increasing the apanage funds, we ordain, from
a feeling of cordial attachment to our well-beloved
daughter, the Grand Duchess Maria Nicolajewna

" 1. In addition to the million of roubles from the
public treasury, allotted by the organic law as a mar-
riage portion, 600,000 roubles;Bank assignats, from the
apanage funds, shall be settled upon her Imperial High-
ness and her descendants as an annual income.
" 2. There being in the organic law of the Imperial
family no precise regulation providing for the substitu-
tion of a money revenue for the apanage estates, we
have deemed it necessary to issue a supplementary or-
der on that point, which we herewith transmit to the
directing Senate, conferring upon it all power and effi-
cacy which, accordinr, to our laws, the provisions con-
tained in the organic law enjoy."
In the supplementary order it is provided that the
apanage revenue shall be hereditary in the Grand
Duchess's descendants, as long as they remain in Russia,
and until their extinction, after which it is to revert to
the general apanage fund. The children arc to inherit
it immediately on the death of the Grand Duchess; in
which case her husband, if he remains in Russia, shall
have the guardianship, but shall be bound, as guardian,
to account for it to the Emperor. If the Grand Duchess
and her descendants die before the Duke of Leuchten-
berg, he will receive 200,000 roubles out of the 600,000
roubles, according to the marriacre settlement. He will
receive the sum if, after the death of the Grand Duchess,
her heirs be only of the female sex. The latter, if they
remain in Russia, are to receive 400,000 roubles, and
200,000 if they do not remain in the country.

THE POOR IN DUBLIN.--It appears tnat since
the Poor-law Bill passed the public have ceased to give
their usual voluntary contributions to the Menclicity Insti-
tution. Appeal after appeal has been made to them in vain,
and the only alternative the Managing Committee have is
to march them in procession through our most fashionable
and crovrded streets. Three thousand four hundred beg-
gars, in all their filth and rags march through the streets
of Dublin, some of them carrying placards, with various
statements of the condition of the Institution—" Eight
hundred pounds in debt for food alone" is one of them ;

"We must beg or starve" another. Heading the proces•
sion are the benevolent gentlemen of the Committee, and
after them several of the floats filled with the children of
the schools The Poor-laws will not come into operation
until next year; in the meantime the immense number of
wretches may perish if not supported by the citizens. The
Poor-law Commissioners have no power to advance money,
nor will the Government. And with all this poverty no.
less a sum than 20,0001. will be expended next week at
that scene of profligacy and drunkenness, Donnybrook Fair.
The Cambridge Chronicle last week indulged in a
passionate paroxysm, and tells us that " the town of Cam-
bridge has been doomed to witness one of the most pre-
cicus specimens of political profligacy ever enacted, to the
great and lasting delight of all lovers of trickery and dis.
honesty I" And then falls foul of Mr. Rice in the follow-
ing fashion. "A Chancellor of the Exchequer after
rewarding his political supporters with a truly lavish gene-
rosity contrives to compound for the virtue of gratitude by
utter ignorance of his business, by a most practical course
of incompetency, and a most entertaining muddle of
financial concerns; until, laughed at by his friends, con-
temned
by his compeers, and reviled by his opponents, he
feels the pressure both from within and without to be too
strong for him, and uses the coward's remedy of flight,
remembering full well that
' He who fights and runs away,
May live to fight another day.'
Thus, to the immortal honour of his sagacity, having dis.
covered that the House of Commons is no longer a fit
sphere for the exhibition of his much esteemed self, he
condescends to double the asinine long ears, he has so
justly and laboriously earned, beneath the circlet of a
pitch-forked coronet."
EGLINTOUN:I,CASTLE, NEAR ARDROSSAN,
WEDNESDAY'.—The Earl of Eglintoun, "the patron of
the lists and chivalry of yore," arrived here from the Kings
Arms Hotel, Dumfries, on Saturday, to hasten forward the
tournament arrangements, that all may be in order by the
28th instant., the day fixed for the commencement of the
sports. Sir Chas. Lamb and Lady Montgomery, the
Earl's mother, who is, it is understood, to do the honours
of the Castle, have also arrived. The Marquis of Bute,
Lord Kelburne, Sir Fred. Johnstone, a French Duke, and
expectedn to be present, but
gat Irvine approaches.
various other distingues, have arrived in the neighbourhood.
On Friday last the demand for posters far exceeded the
chieftain, as head of the
clan of Hamilton. The trappings for the horses and the

the banks of the Annan as well as the Kith. The inn-
keepers have been advised to make additions to their res-

ancient 'armour have all arrived. Lady Seymour, the
Queen of Beauty and of the Tournament, expected to
arrive at the Castle on Saturday, having left town with
her Lord by the railway on Wednesday. Her Ladyship's
dress for the occasion, made by Howell and James, of Re-
gent_street, is composed of a jacket of ermine, the skirt of
violet velvet, with the front of sky blue velvet, on which
are her Ladyship's arms, (those of the Duke of Somerset),
richly embroidered in silver, and a coronet, or crown, rich-
ly ornamented with jewels. The Marchioness of London-
derry's dress is composed of similar materials. Her Lady-
ship's dress was made at Holdernesse House, under her
awn direction.

presenting the Cinque Ports at the Wellington Festival,
on account of the Committee having refused to allow the
health of her Majesty's Ministers being given as a toast
