Morganatic Marriages.
A Luii'src journal has compiled a list of morganatic mairiages which have taken place within a comparatively short period, with the object of showing that when the Grand Duke of Hesse espoused ]\ladamo de Kalomino he did nothing at all exceptional ; and it points out that the wrath of his relatives in England and at Berlin is really very unreasonable, which has all along been the general opinion in Germany. There have been seventeen unions of this sort, and it is added that "they all turned out most happily." The list includes one Empei'or, four Kings, one Elector, two Archdukes of Austria, and nine Royal Princes The indignation of the English relative? is all tho moro absurd as, according to Gorman law, the marriage of Princess Louiso witli Lord Lome is a morganatic union.
