THE RELIGIOUS CEREMONY

Of THE
1114RR1e1GE OF BUOIVAPARTE.

In the chapel of the Louvre, where the ceremony
was performed, an estrade, surmounted by a ca,.
nopy, was erected in front of the altar. At the dis-
tance of thirty feet from the altar were placed two.
chairs of state, with a praying desk, for their
Imperial Majesties. In two chandeliers close to
the altar were put two large wax candles, each
of them incrusting twenty pieces of gold. A
boson, containing thirty pieces of gold, and .the
marriage•ring, was laid on the altar. At the bot-
tom of the steps cre two cushions for their
IMperial Majesties, and at the top three chairs Cu:
the officiating Grand Almoner and his two wristam
Bishops. The Cardinals were seated to the right of
the altar, and the Bishops to the left. The Prince,
Grand _Dignitaries, &c. were stationed, as at the
civil ceremony, according to their respective degrees
of rank and precedence.
The Cardinal Grand Almoner of France, his as"
sistant, the Grand Almoner of Italy, and the body
of the Clergy, received thelmperial Pair at the door
of the chapel, and presented them with the Censer
and holy water. Their Majesties and. the whole of the.
procession having taken their places, the officiating
Grand Almoner ordered the Yeni Creator, to be
chanted, all present being on their knees. At the
conclusion of the first verse, the Grand Almoner pro.
ceeded to the highest step of the sanctuary, and stand-,
ing with his back to the altar, pronounced a benedic-
tion on the thirty pieces of gold and the rino..
. This part of the ceremony being completed, the
Grand Master of the Cernionies made a bow to the
Emperor anti Empress, who, taking off their gloves,
advanced to the foot of the altar, and there' taking,
each other by the right hand, were thus.addressed
by the Grand Almoner:—

Sire, you declare, that you ackuovillecip, and
you swear before Gpd, and in the face of his holy
church, that you now take as your lawful wife and
spouse, her .4nperial and Royal gighness Madame
Maria Louisa, Archduchess of Austria, here present."
The Emperor answered, ": Yes, Sir." The Mi-
nister continued, " You promise and swear to be:
faithful to her iq all things, as a faithful husbagd
ought to he towards hi,s spouse, according to the
commandment of God." •41e gpv4gor,answeicd,
" Yes, Sir.?

The same corm, was gone through with respeet tQ
the Empress; with this distin6tion: only, that iu
compliment, do doubt, to her religious creed, the
Minister omitted in the question put to her„ the
word " acknowledge," which he had introducA iii
addressing Napoleon, to denote the yalWity of the.
prior civil mart iage, according to. tht; modern code of.
France. • •

The Minister then delivered the ring and the
pieces, of gold, ,one by one, to ;he Emperor, who.
presented the latter in like nranner to the gmpress.
By -her they were transferred to a Maid of 'Honour,
standinebehind her, who riinisiao this pan of the
scene by handing them, to an assistant, of the ceremo-
nies. The Emperor then put the ring on the ring fin-
ger of the Empress's_ left hand, saying," I give' you
