MARRIAGE IN 111GH LIFE.

The marriage of Lady Georgiana Adelaide Rus-
sell, daughter of Earl Russell, with Mr. Archibald
Peel, third son of General the Right Hon. and Lady
Alice Peel, was solemnised yesterday at Petersham
Church, which is situated within a mile and a half
of Pembroke Lodge, the noble earl's residence at
Richmond. The bride, accompanied by her father,
who gave her away, arrived at the church shortly
after 11 o'clock, the bridegroom having previously
arrived, attended by Colonel Palmer, who acted as
" best man." The bride was received by Lady
Agatha Russell, Miss May Drummond, Miss Kate
Warburton, and Miss Ada F. Villiers, who acted as
bridesmaids. The bride was elegantly attired in
white satin trimmed with Brussels lace, with veil
to match, and a wreath of orange flowers. The
bridesmaids wore white tulle dresses trimmed with
blue, and white straw bonnets decorated with forget-
me-nots. The ceremony was performed by the
Rev. Lord Wriothesley Russell, M.A., canon of
Windsor, rector of Chenies, Bucks, and uncle ,of
the bride, assisted by ,the Rev, P. Nott. After the
registration of the marriage the wedding party and
friends repaired to Pembroke Lodge to breakfast.
There were present at the breakfast—His Royal

The Empresi Charlotte•

(From Echoes of the Club.)

The Empress of Mexico is now staying at Ter-
vueren, a summer palace of the King of the Bel-
gians, near Brussels, nursed and cared for solely
by her sister-in-law, the Queen. The devotion Of
this Royal lady to the sufferer has been crowned
by a signal success. She obtains from the invalid
what nobody else could—the implicit obedience of 3
child, and the utmost confidence. They are never
separated, either in the palace or in their walks er
drives.
The few people that have seen the unfortunate
Empress say that it is heartrending to witness the
change that has taken place in her appearance. She
is wasted to a shadow ; her face, once so beautiful,
is now drawn and withered, and her head bowed
down upon her breast. She is melancholy and help-
less, and offers no opposition to anything she is told
to do ; but the sight of the scenes of her childhood
has already produced a salutary effect. She 110
asked for drawing materials, and resumed an occu-
pation which she had abandoned for years ; and
once or twice when out driving she recognised people
whom she had not since her marriage.
Up to the Queen's arrival at Miramar the Eul-
press had lived entirely upon eggs, so constant WO
her fear of being poisoned ; but on her sister-in-10v
ordering more solid food, and setting the example ef
eating, it was speedily followed. Her Majesty
shows the most extraordinary tact as well as tell'
derness in her relations with the unfortunate priry
cess, sometimes assuring her that she has the same
symptoms, and feels the same suffering, and Oleo
prescribing different remedies, all of which she '
serts have given immense relief to herself.
The Empress never mentions Mexico ; and the
doctors state that it has become, as it were, a sealed
letter in her brain. She seems to have completely
forgotten that sad period of her existence. sb°
never inquires directly after her husband ; but the
simple mention of his name induces her immediately
to do anything that is required of her. Every OW
and then she asks for newspapers, but some excuse
At
is made, and she never repeats the demand.
present it is not intended that she should be mad°
; acquainted with the terrible end of the drama that
has taken place.

Foreign-office, to support the prayer of a petition to FL'i.;ll,

modification or erasure of Article 4 of the literary .01-1-ci

authors complain that the article in question, which Pern'tib

THE HARVEST IN THE EAST.--WedlleSdg. ".,,
another brilliant day for harvest work in the eastern
no
trio. A Newmarket letter says :—" Wheat cutting Is
going on actively in every part, and the harvest inftY
of
u
said to be general. Sumo forward crops have been g_Litti
in good condition, and samples of new wheat have sir'
b4ca exhibited iu the market."

MONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Money Market is very quiet, and there is no
alteration to quote in the rates either for loans or
discounts.

On the subject of money we take the following
from Mr. T. Spargo's " Guide to British and
Foreign Investments," issued at Gresham house :
" The plethora of money in the market will pro-
bably lead investors to favour foreign loans, a
course always dangerous and often ruinous. Russia
is coming out for a loan of 12 millions sterling
for railway purposes. The security of the
Russian Empire is undoubtedly good as long
as Russia is not at war with the West.
The Sultan also wants the sum of 20 millions, se-
cured by the forests and fisheries of the Empire.
This vast sum will never be paid ; before the 88
years, in which the negotiators speak of paying it,
are half, or, probably, one fourth expired, Moham-
medanism will have sunk to its doom, and the Otto-
man Turks cease to rule in Europe. Brazil is likely
also to require assistance. That country having taken
to filibustering, and attacked the brave and peaceful
people of Paraguay, has been beaten repeatedly.
For two years the Emperor has been making war
on the La Plata, at a cost of $200,000 a day, and
an awful sacrifice of life. Buenos Ayres, as the
chief city of the Argentine Confederation, is by its
press putting out feelers as to the eligibility of that
state as a borrower in Europe. That city has
aided Brazil in its infatuated proceedings on La
Plata, and is suffering profoundly in the result.
How much safer for English capitalists to invest at
home, in the many sound enterprises that invite
their participation. Good progressive mines, such
as the silver-lead mines of Cardiganshire, and other
places, would bring certain returns ut far higher
rates of interest, while these loans to foreign des-
pots, 'whose governments are destined to perish be-
fore advancing public opinion, are often unable to
redeem their bonds, and as unwilling as unable.
With regard to the corn market at Birmingham
Mr. W. C. B. Cane states as follows :—" We have
had six successive days of scorching hot sun, such as
was much to be desired for ripening corn. To-day
it has been showery. With the most favourable
weather it will be another week or ten days before
harvest is general in this district. The potato dis-
ease has again appeared in many places, which
causes them to be forced upon the market at low
prices. Wheat trade during the week has been at
a complete stand-still, owing to the brilliant weather;
while holders, being aware of the exhaustion of old
stocks, are content to wait for a return of the
demand. Foreign arrivals continue liberal. At
to-day's market there was a better supply of Eng-
lish wheat, and where sales were pressed last week's
advance was lost.

At the bullion office of the Bank of England
Yesterday there were no gold transactions of im-
portance.

• The Atrato, from the West Indies, has brought
specie to the amount of £460,535 ; the Borussia,
from New York, £75,000 ; and the Helvetia,
£27,000. The Arago has also brought about
£79,780.
The decision in the House of Lords has been
delivered confirming the judgment of Vice-Chan-
cellor Malins in favour of the creditors, whose
representative, Mr. Charles Oppenheim, has exerted
himself with untiring energy to bring about this
settlement, which is now considered fair and just
towards all parties.
At the meeting held to-day of the Berlin Water
Works Company, the report stated that the amount
available for distribution was £23,302, from which
amount the board recommended a dividend at the
rate of 81 per cent. per annum, leaving £1,117 to
he carried forward.

At the meeting held to-day of the shareholders
of the Natal Land and Colonisation Company (Li-
mited) the directors' report stated that the accounts
made up to the 31st December, 1866, showed a
balance of £8,804, after writing off £147 from pre-
liminary expenses. An interim dividend was paid
last January of 2s. 6d. per share, and a further
distribution is now recommended of 2s. per share,
being equal to 41 per cent. for the half year, and
leaving £455 to be carried over. The accounts
State that there is a balance of surplus assets over
liabilities of £187,534, the former being £420,778
and the latter £233,244.
In the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets
during the last few days there has been very little
animation. The public sales of Indian tea, how-
ever, have proceeded at steady prices; sugar, in
most instances, has been a shade cheaper; while
auperior qualities of Colonial Coffee have brought
full rates. Rice has been neglected, and only
Moderate transactions have taken place in tallow at
about previous rates.
, The third series of public sales of Colonial Wool
zor the present year commenced yesterday after-
noon with a fair attendance of buyers. The dealings,
however, were not very animated, although the
prices realised were about equal to those current at
the previous auctions on May and June; the quan-
tities to be offered at these terms already amounts
to 126,846 bales.
The return from the Bank of England for the
'eek ending the 14th August gives the following re-
sults when compared with the previous week :
Rest £3,404,041 Increase £4,586

3LARK LANE.

Owing to the changeable state of the weather, the value
of English wheat in to-day's market was very uncertain.
The supply brought forward was trifling; nevertheless,
sales progressed slowly, and prices may be considered
nominally the same as on Monday last.
The full imports of foreign wheat have boon confined
to 10,520 quarters, yet the show of samples was good. The
transactions, both in rod and white qualities, were limited
at about previous rates.

Floating cargoes of grain were held on former terms.
The barley trade was firm at full quotations. There
was no English barley on offer.
Malt met a dull inquiry at barely stationary prices. The
supply was tolerably good.
We were fairly supplied with foreign oats, which moved
off steadily at full prices.
Beans and peas were quite as dear as on Monday.
The flour trade was heavy.
Seeds and cakes commanded very little attention.
