!. The Queen Of England has given hel
gracious permission in Council that heI
second son, the Duke of Edinburg, now
twenty-nine years old, may marry the
daughter of the Emperor of Russia. The
Queen has also notified 'sHer Most faith
full Commons" that she would be
pleased if they would raise the youns
mans salary from 200 to 925 ,00t
per annum which, with the addition o
E his pay as captain in the Royal Navy
might enable him to live decently for
time. In case of his death at any tim'
: after marriage the Queen would also b.
r pleased if provision should be made TO
T. the wife to the extent of a jointure o
1 f6 900. Both Houses of Parliament
: have hastened to show their willingness
r to help bear the young couples finan
: cial burdens to this extent, though a few
: Radicals i'll the Commons had the ba'
# taste to object and the impertinence T.
Y ask what the Duke of Edinburg ha,
= done to deserve the increase of salar,
n and why the Queen did not make som
O provision for the young couple out O
!. her own large private fortune. Tha
: brings up the whole question of the cos
f OF Royalty in England and makes Il pee
