A Notable Wedding,

Prince Albert Grimaldi, duke Of Val
entinois, son and heir presumptive of the
monarch of Monaco, and famous for his
studies of Atlantic currents, is about to
be united in the bonds of wedlock with
the Duchesse de Richelieu, says a Paris
correspondent, but the date of the mar
riage will probably be delayed owing to
the precarious state of the health of
Prince Charles III, father of the future
bridegroom. The lady is the daughter
of the banker, Michel Heine, and was
married in 1875 to the Due de Richelieu.
The duchesse is still well preserved
blonde, and is gifted with artistic tai
ents. She was formerly one of the most
assiduous of the literary ladies who flock
ed to the lectures of the late Professor
Caro-, whose fair disciples were inevita-
bly, doomed to the designation of "Caro-
lines"
Prince Albert Grimaldi, it will be re-
membered, was first married in 1869 to
a daughter of the house Of Hamilton,
but the marriage was annulled about
nine years ago by the court of Rome In
connection with the approaching nup-
tials social genealogists point out with
much JUNCTION that, by the marriage of
the prince and the duchess, the houses
of Richelieu and Mazarin will be united
Prince Albert is, in fact, the grandson
of the last heiress of the duchy of Maza-
rim, and is also, on the maternal side, a
lineal descendant of Dunois, the young
and brave, who has been immortalized
by Queen Hortense and Sir Walter Scott.
The betrothal of the happy pair takes
place at the chateau of Prince Charles OF
Monaco, in the department of the Aisne,
where the ruler of the Mediterranean
principality, who is now bereft of his
sight, has lived in retirement for several
years.-Boston Herald.

COMMENTING on the pOstponement OF
the lottery case, the New York World
says
The supreme Court has postponed the
hearing until autumn in order that the case
may be determined BIZ full bench, but the
briefs are in. and Il careful reading of them
is not very reaSsurlng to those who desire
to see some effective restraint placed upon
this legaliXcd gambling. The argument of
the lottery lawyers upon the constitutional
questions involved is very strong; that OF
Assistant Acknowledgement Mauy for the
government seems much weaker than
really capable Attorney General would have
made it, If the law lies with the right in
the case, we must depend upon the Court
to discover the fact without much help
from the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS office as at
present manned.
This is scarcely just to the Attorney
Generals office. Mr.. Maury has made
the best case that was possible Tor the
government in this controversy, and has
presumably acted in full harmony with
Attorney General Miller, who has been
prevented by illness from preparing the
brief in person. The trouble is that the
government has not much OF case on
the face OF the papers. The measure
which the Louisiana Lottery Company
challenges before the Supreme Court can
be defended only on the ground OF moral
expediencv. Undoubtedly it is as an
abstract proposition an invasion OF the
/ liberty OF the press and an intringementt
of personal rights. Theoretically, II
| Congress may deny the use OF the mails
to newspapers containing lottery adyer-
tisements, it may with equal proprlety
take similar action in the case OF liquor
advertisements, playing-card advertise
ments. bucket-shop advertisements OF
any other which the party in the MAJOR,
ity Mt the moment may choose to regard
as immoral and pernicious. There is,
indeed no end to the mischief and OPP
preston to which such a principle, once
established, may not lead. IL is but nat
ural therefore, that the Constitution
should repudiate it in general way, ana
that it should be destitute OF support III

Her wedding Present.

The departure of the Chinese embassy
stationed here for several years, will be
a source of regret tomany society bellies
to whom the members Of the legation
have been liberal, and the minister him
self has set the example. A young lady
living in the West End, and who is to be
married to one of the upper ten III a few
months, had been very kind to the CHI
nese minister, whom she met at several
social gatherings.
Upon the eve of his return tothe Flow
ery kingdom, he called upon the young
lady and spent an agreeable evening
with her and an elderly chaPeron, AS
he rose to leave the parlor the minister
mt his hand in his flowing robes and
drew forth small parcel, which he SAID
he had brought as a wedding present TO
his Young friend, She could scarcely
restrain her curiosity until her guest had
departed, and as soon as the front door
closed she hurried to her apartment to
examine the contents of the package.
To her surprise and delight it proved TO
