SKETCH OF THE PRINCESS.

tall, light-haired, slender girl, not at all
like her mother, and much prettier than the
other royal children. She has, as many
people have said, IAN American look, -
small, delicate features, a nose a trifle Tip
tilted, like flower" and very fine brown
eyes, sweet red liDs and luxuriant brown
hair. The princess Is two inches taller
than the queen, with fOrm-nOt face-de-

art can add no beauty to its outline. She
was born on the 14th of April. 1857. The
groom has nothing particular to recommend
him, except handsome face. He is nearly
as poor as the typical church mouse, and he
is known all over Europe as
THE GERMAN PAUPER,"

pensioner on the English government to
the tune of $50. 900 year in addition to q
dOwry of $3.50. 600. The Crown Prince of
Prussia does not like it. because it makes
him brOther-in-law to a very inferior sort of

daughters to act as maids to the bride, and
neither he nor his wife, the Crown Princess
of Germany, will go to England for the
wedding. Queen Victoria is going to create
her new son-in-law knight of the Garter,
and he seems to be the only one who is
gaining by the alliance.

After the ceremony the happy couple
will spend week in Quar- Abbey, Lady
COchrane's charming place. near Ryde,
completing their honeymoon afterwards by
a cruise in the Victoria and Albert. The
queen is essentially German in her ideas on
the duties of wives. and has over and over
again laid down that woman should not
have head for politics. Sir Theodore
Martins biography teens with expressions
