Nor is this the worst Of II. The prince ha
been debauchee-although his llasons ar
said not to have been Of the most expensiy
kind-and II has been with the utmost diff
Guilty that the aversion Of the Empress Q
Russia and her poor daughter to this mate
has been overcome. One OF his latest amour
has been with notorious actress of the oper
boufie--a woman whose ill-fame Is world
wide, and who long since lost whateye
charms she may once have possessed. Tn
story of this affair Is too disgusting to r,
peat; but | mention II only because one
It's results entailed certain extremely di
agreeable consequences, which caused d
postponement Of the announcement Of tn
happy event over which the London )ourna
of drink and thrift are bad enough, but Grei
Britain Is far more dlshonored In her roy
family.
