Prince Henry.

BERLIN, Nay "a Great preparations
are being made in the royal city for the
marriage Of Prince Henry. OF fruFsia'
and the Princess Irene, Of Hesse- Darn
stadt, which will be celebrated with i'm
perial splendor today. Henry is much
more popular than his elder brother, the
Crown Prince Wilhelm, and what is more
han all in his favor is that he is virtually
cut of politics and simply poses as a pri-
vate citizen, although entitled TO i'm
erial honors and dignities. The
avorable turn in the condition Of his
father the Emperor Frederick, who is
enabled to participate in the festivities,
materially adds to the joyousness every
where manifested throughout the German
capital and the country. The bride and
bridegroom are first cousins TO Princess
Irene, being the daughter of the Princess
Alice Of Great Britain, sister Of the En-
press Victoria Of Germany. Princess
Alice, whose untimely death caused
such profound grief throughout England,
and Germany, some few years ago was
the most accomplished and beloved of all
Queen Victoria daughters. Her daugh-
ter Irene is said to possess many Of the
unable characteristics of her mother and
bears a striking resemblance TO her in
features. Prince Henry was born August
IA, 1862, and is consequently in his goth
year. There is no probability that he will
ever take u conspicuous part in affairs OF
state, his married brother, the crown
prince. already having three sons i'm the
direct line of succession TO the imperial
crown. The prince Of Wales, the king of
Saxony and ether European %potentates
will be represented at the brilliant cere-
monies to take place this evening either
in person or by special and princely en-
voys. The newly married couple will
leave tomorrow for Erdmansdorlf III
Silesia, where they will reside.
