LONDON, April Is.
Mr.. DisraelI must now rewrite his last novel
for ssLoihair'' and '.Miss Clare Arundel were
married this morning at the Roman Catholic
Oratory in Brompton.
In the novel Lothair refuses to break the
promise extorted from him by Theodore Cam
plan on her death.bed, when she asked him to
swear that he would not become a Catholic;
and to embrace her instead of Rome, as she
wished his ''spirit should be upon" her as hers
departed; he resists the arguments OF Cardinal
Grandson and Monsignore Catesbey;h he breaks
the heart of Clare Arundel, and drives her to q
convent; and he marries Lady Corisande.
But In point OF fact "Lothair," who openly
confessed the faith which he had long held
upon his coming OF age tour years ago, has
remained steadfast and Jealous therein; and
he has now made a complete alteration of the
| uOFSl uSCCSSdll Wy lSoFlu6 AuNy
to the Duke of Brecon, and marrying "Miss
Arundel" the fair andLoveIy daughter of the
Oldest and noblest Catholic family In the realm.
There never has been any question, l be-
lieve, as to the Identity OF the characters
drawn by the skilful hand OF Mr.. Disraeli in
the novel of which the events Of this morning
must be taken as the sequel-a sequel very
| different from the one Invented by the author.
| Lothair was the Marquis of Butte; Cardinal
Grandson was Archbishop Manning; MonsIg-
| more Ca'esbey was Monslgnore Capel-the
latter name even appearing on one page In
| the first edition of the book. If Lord and
| Lady st. Jerome were somewhat less th1nly
yelled, people have easily surmised who they
were; and for their charming daughter. MISS
| Arundel, no fairer original could be found
than the sweet and gentle Miss Howard, who
| this morning became the Marchioness OF Butte.
THE BRIDEGROOM.
Let me tell exactly who he is. he is John
Patrick Crichton-Stuart, third Marquis OF
| Butte, Earl of Windsor and VIscount Monntjoy,
| Baron Mountstuart, Earl of Dumtries, Earl oil
Butte, Viscount of Ayr, Viscount Kingarth,
| Lord Mountstuart, Cumsa and Inchmarnock,
| Baron Crlchton of S%anquhar, Lord Crichton
| and Cumnock, Hereditary Keeper of ROthsay
Castle, Knight of the holy Sspulchre, knight
Grand Cross of the Order of Plus. All his
titles are hereditary save the two last, which
| were bestowed on him by the Pope. In him,
| therefore, are concentrated the dignities OF a
1 MARQUIS, three earls, three viscounts, three
| barons and five lords. He Is twenty-five years
| old. In person he Is tall and trong-framed
! his complexion Is dark, and his black hair,
growing rather low upon his forehead, gives
10 his counteuancea a rather sjmbre expression
I e., rnnnoa. Whan hQ anaQka and 10 animal
| ed this expression gives place to one of
| great sweetness. His wealth Is immense-no
| one knows It's exact extent, but the common
| report that his income Is one thousand pounds
sterling q day Is probably not far from the
mark. Some portions OF the portrait OF
Lothair as drawn by Mr.. Dlsraell would be
| portions of q correct portrait Of the BRIDE
groom OF to-day. He Is the owner OF q vast
Inheritance In many counties and l.: more
| than one kingdom. He possesses ma. pala.
| ces and castles. he is q Scotchman, uut was
/ educated at Harrow and Christchurch, Oxford.
be shy and embarrassed; he was even said to
| be morose; but In tact he had not a gloomy
| temper, although he perhaps felt that me had,
| somehow or other, hitherto passed through
lie rarely with pleasure and never with joy
"He seemed what Is called an earnest young
man. He was profuse, but he was not prodl'
gal; he gratiied all bis %fancies, but they were
not Ignoble ones; and he was not only senti.
mentally but systematically charitable" ALI
this Is very true of the Marquis OF Butte.
THE WEALTH OF THE YOUTHFUL MARQUIS
has been common talk since he attained to
his majority; but to understand what this
wealth is-to form a just idea, indeed, of any
real weallh-one must see 1t, not In rows OF
printed figures, but In swarming industry,
In piles of merchandise on broad and busy
ouays, in q wilderness Of tall masts, in habita-
L y L. ooh1NIa q. h,,rabo o.I
In well titled fields. To wealth such as this
Lord Butte succeeded, by the mysterious will
of Heaven, while he was yet 8 little child,
too young to know or even to feel the differ
ence between princely riches and the direst
poverty. A ball had been given to celebrate
bis birth; 1t was the first ieslivity graced by
the presence OF his mother after that event;
and it was changed with awful suddenness to
terror and lamentation by his fathers death.
The unconscious little heir was the only child
OF that union. As he grew into knowledge
and understanding he found that, by q wise
documentary provision, the substantial inner
itance, destined ultimately for his use and en-
joyment, was placed under the control OIL
trustees; and that, Til he himself shall have
an heir, it will so remain. Protected against
the possible temptation and headlong impul
SEES of youth, he became the more certainly
master of an immense revenue, which, as lie
felt and manfully said, brought with 1t q vas
and almost overwhelming responsibility.
THE BRIDE
was the Hon. Gwendollne Howard, eldes
daughter of Edward George Fitz-Allan How
ard, Lord Howard of Glossop. second son O
the thirteenth Dixie of Norfolk. Her motllel
was his first vile, Augusta, only daughter anc

the seventeenth Earl of Shrewsbury. She Il

Mr.. Disranll described Miss Arundel he tool
Miss Howard for his model. She was accom-
panied by her father and her step-moiher, ant
by q brilliant array of bridesmaids. The

THE WEDDING DRESSES.
