To day, says 2 correspondent of the Lon

Egypt, on January If, Is a great Moham-
medan wedding. Mahmoud Hamdi Bey,
the tiith son OF the hhediye, was married
last week TO daughter of Edhemi Pasha,
son Of Abbas Pasha, son OF Mehemet Ali,
and Eioeroy of Egypt from ISIS to 1895.
Prince Tewfk, the heir apparent TO the
throne. il married TO 3 sister Of the BRIDE,
and Prince Ib-ahim, now at Wooiwlch, Is
betroihed 10 another sister. Certainly the
vice regal family are obedieut to the be-
esls Of their religion, which declares
MARRIAGE POSITIVE DUTY.

brothers IN e MOhammedan country, as

Fgur wives are the limit, and'the facility
of divorce is so great that the, rich men do
