Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1886-08-29

Gated in the universities Of his native
country. In 1866 he married the Prln-
cess Maria Dagmar, fourth child Of
Christian lX.. King Of Denmark, and
sister Of the Princess of Wales.
Later, in the year 1874, Queen Veto
ris's second son, the Duke OF Edinburgh.
was married to the Grand Duchess Ma
RE Of Russia, only daughter of the
Emperor Alexander H., and sister Of
the present Car.
The Empress Of Russia was a men,
Der of the Lutheran, which il the es-
tablished Church Of Denmark, before
her marriage. At her reception into
the Greek Church, Of which the Gar
of Russia is the head. she was known
as Maria Feodoroyna. She is great
favorite in Russian society, which she
cultiyates with remarkable assiduisy.
Five children have been the result OF
the marriage, Of which the eldest, the
Grand Duke Nicholas, born May Is,
1868, became heir apparent, upon the
accession Of his father as Emperor OF
all the Russias. The other children
are the Grand-Duke George, born May
10. 1871: the Grand-Duchess Nenia,
born April Is, 1875; the Grani-Duks
Michael, born December 5, 1878, AMI
the Grand-Duchess Olga, born June IL,
1882. Russia is in this way supplied
with abundant material for Imperial
honors, not 10 speak Of other branches
belonging to the stock, from which en-
perors and expresses would be procu-
rable if necessary.
When, on March l5, 1881, Alexander
II. was assasanated by the Nibilists,
the subject of this sketch became Car.
lie lived in q retirement which his enc
mics thought sayored more o. c9varf'cs
than prudence, until tie day OF his cor
onation at Moscow, May D, 1888. This
was an event OF unprecedented spIendor,
even in Russia. The Emperor, in strik-
ing contrast with his previous timidity,
manifested great confidence in his peO-
pie, and since that time has evidently
been less fearful of personal harm from
the Nihilists than he was previously.
lie still travels with the pomp and cir
cumstance and precaution surprising to
the citizens OF a country which elects its
