LAT>T RfBY TO WED LORD CROMER'S HEIR. L«(!y Kuhy Elliot will be recalled by many j>eoiile In America as the second of the three pretty daug-hters of Lord Mlnto. whose -wife i«o frequentlj- visited the United States •with her children during hie term of office as Governor General of Canada. The numerous friends of the Mintos here will taarafore be Interested to learn of Lady Ruby'e ens a *'en3*'iit to Viscount Err:r.gion. eldest son and b*ir of Lord Cromtr of Egyptian fame. Lord Er- rinptcr.. •who is a member at the diplomatic ser- tic*. r>ossess«d of a \u25a0wonderful command of Rus- sian and Turkish, is now one of the private sec- retaries of Sir Edward Grey, the Secretary of Elate for Foreign Affairs, and has been frequently brourht into contact during the London season, \u25a0which has now come to a clo^e. with Lady Ruby, who ha* t>e<-r in Enciand * :nee the spring with h»-r aother and eider sifter.

Lord -romer was •aaaly devoted to the late Lady Cromcr. and when ha was made an ear! not lon* after her death he asked the Kins to make fcis second title that of Viscount BaTznarton as a memorial if th* role which she had played In lomking his administration of Egypt \u25a0 success. It Is probably the only instance in the British x>eer- ace of a title being based Upon a consideration each as this. I may add that rince tte late Lady Cromer \u25a0 fortune will be thared at the death of the earl between her two boys. Lord Cromer v. particu- larly pleased 1- rec-ive the recent national grant cr SS&MQ. which enables him to make a suitable pro\le' \u25a0 for his little son by his recond and I<r " " eat marria*.-.

I suppose that it is hardly necessary to state that there would never have been any objection to mar- riages with deceased wives' sisters, which are al- lowed by the Catholic and Orthodox Greek churches and in all other countries of the world. had it not been for the desire on the part of Henry VIII to create an excuse for the annulment of his marriage to Queen Catherine of Aragon. who had been the promised wife of his elder brother. It was solely to enable him to get rid of Catherine and to be thus free to wed the fasci- nating Anne Boleyn that he caused marriages with deceased •:••-••«=• Btstera to be forbidden by law and also by the Church of England. In mentioning the support given by the present King and all the members of the royal family to the deceased wife's sister bill now enacted (on several occasions prior to his accession to the throne Edward VII while Prince of Wale.--; his son. as Duke of Tork: his brothers and the late Duke of Cambridge all voted as members of the House or Lords in favor of the bill), none of the newspapers give the reason for this attitude on th» part or the reigning house toward the measure. It was due to Queen Victoria, who. had It not been for the Lyndhurst law, now repealed. would have. brought about a marriage between her widowed «ion-in-law, the late Grand Duke of Hesse, and her youngest daughter, Princess Beatrice, mother of the present Queen of Spain. It was a match upon which her heart was pet and which would have provided th" grand duke's motherless girls with a suitable guardian In place of her dead daughter. the Grand Duchess Alice. Princess Beatrice was very fond Of her brother-in-law, the Grand Duke of Hesse sad of the latter* children, and It wan only after she had realised that many years would elapse before the English law could be so modi- fied as to permit of her marriage with the grand take that she gave her hand to Prince Henry Of Battenberg. MARQUISE DE KONTENOY. EXACTED TO OBLIGE DUKE OF BEAt-FORT. If the date of ISS3 has been set as the extent of the retroaction of the Dew law, it is because it was in that year that the so-called I.yndhurst act was parsed pronouncing invalid all marriages with deceased wives' sisters contracted thenceforth. [1 was drawn up and carried throueh Parliament by the Lord High Chancellor of the day. Lord Lyndhurst. Up to that time marriages with de- ceased wives' sisters were voidable, although not ab Initk) void- that is to say. maxrias**s of this kind were valid until annulled by the ecclesiastical courts, which took no action unless any one went to the trouble of setting- the tribunal in motion. In order to appreciate how the matter ptood in these day? 1 may mention that for a time the. claims of the present Lord Barnard to his peerage and ;o the possession of Baby Castle and the valuable estates which go therewith were placed in dooM owing to the fact that he was descended from the second Lord Barnard's grandson, Morgan Vane, and from the latters third wife, Catherine Brooks, who had been the sister of his second wife. Sarah Brooks. The Committee of Privileges of the House of Lords after lengthy deliberations extending over a period of many months came to the conclusion that iir the time when Morgan Vane married his deceased wife's sister euch unions were voidable, although n<.t of themselves void, and that, therefore. Morgan Vane's son by his third wife was legitimate, thanks to which the present Lord Barnard Is now a peer of the realm, aster of Raby Castle and in possession of an in- come of 1250.000 a year. Lord Lyndhursfs initiation of the act of IS3S Which bears his num.- was due to his anxiety to oblige his intimate friend, the seventh Duke of Beaufort. The latter had in June. 1822, married his deceased wife's half-sister— that is to say, her sister by the same mother. He had no male Issue by his first marriage, but an only pen by his sec- ond marriage, who became the eighth duke, and father, therefore, of the present duke. The sev- enth duke had an only brother. Lord Granvllie Somerset, who it was known would raise questions as to the right of the duke's son to succeed to the title and estate*, on the ground of his being the issue of a union forbidden by law. The duk».\ who was devoted to his son, was especially anxious that there should J>e no question about his right to his peerages and entailed estates, and with this object in view got his friend. Lord High Chancel- lor Lyadßurat to devise the Lyndhurst act, which legalized .ill marriages then existing with deceased wives' sisters, but made illegal all such unions contracted thereafter. Having accomplished this, the duke then proceeded to propitiate his brother by settling upon him a targe sum of money, up well as a considerable amount of the unentailed r states Lord Granville Somerset left three sons and two daughters, and as the none have no male Issue all the property thus alienated from the ducal house of Beaufort will pass but of the family to the children of Lord Granville'e married daugh- ters. twenty-three years of p«re. hap of course, always been \u25a0\u25a0'\u25a0\u25a0 m leiritimate and in the line of succession to the afonkswdl r»eoraa;«»: but Ixiwrence Collier. Urn painter's son by his second marriage, has until tow been, like his sister Joan, branded with the stigma of illegitimary, from which they v.-ill henceforth be free. This Is only one of many hundreds of similar instances of the same kind that exist in the arisrocracy where the name and fortune will be affects by the new law. PRINCE \0 CLDLBEB.

ROYALTY'S ATTITUDE IX THE MATTER.

Isuppose that it is hardly necessary to state that

there would never have been any objection to mar-riages with deceased wives' sisters, which are al-

lowed by the Catholic and Orthodox Greek

churches and in all other countries of the world.had it not been for the desire on the part of

Henry VIIIto create an excuse for the annulmentof his marriage to Queen Catherine of Aragon.

who had been the promised wife of his elder

brother. It was solely to enable him to get rid of

Catherine and to be thus free to wed the fasci-

nating Anne Boleyn that he caused marriages with

deceased •:••-••«=• Btstera to be forbidden by law and

also by the Church of England.

In mentioning the support given by the present

King and all the members of the royal family to

the deceased wife's sister bill now enacted (on

several occasions prior to his accession to the

throne Edward VII while Prince of Wale.--; his

son. as Duke of Tork: his brothers and the late

Duke of Cambridge all voted as members of the

House or Lords in favor of the bill), none of the

newspapers give the reason for this attitude on th»

part or the reigning house toward the measure. It

was due to Queen Victoria, who. had Itnot been

for the Lyndhurst law, now repealed. would have.brought about a marriage between her widowed«ion-in-law, the late Grand Duke of Hesse, and her

youngest daughter, Princess Beatrice, mother of

the present Queen of Spain. It was a match upon

which her heart was pet and which would have

provided th" grand duke's motherless girls with a

suitable guardian In place of her dead daughter.

the Grand Duchess Alice. Princess Beatrice was

very fond Of her brother-in-law, the Grand Duke

of Hesse sad of the latter* children, and It wan

only after she had realised that many years wouldelapse before the English law could be so modi-

fied as to permit of her marriage with the grand

take that she gave her hand to Prince Henry OfBattenberg. MARQUISE DE KONTENOY.

EXACTED TO OBLIGE DUKE OF BEAt-FORT.If the date of ISS3 has been set as the extent of

the retroaction of the Dew law, it is because it wasin that year that the so-called I.yndhurst act wasparsed pronouncing invalid all marriages withdeceased wives' sisters contracted thenceforth.[1 was drawn up and carried throueh Parliamentby the Lord High Chancellor of the day. LordLyndhurst. Up to that time marriages with de-ceased wives' sisters were voidable, although not

ab Initk) void- that is to say. maxrias**s of thiskind were valid until annulled by the ecclesiasticalcourts, which took no action unless any one went

to the trouble of setting- the tribunal in motion.In order to appreciate how the matter ptood inthese day? 1 may mention that for a time the.claims of the present Lord Barnard to his peerageand ;o the possession of Baby Castle and thevaluable estates which go therewith were placed

in dooM owing to the fact that he was descendedfrom the second Lord Barnard's grandson, MorganVane, and from the latters third wife, CatherineBrooks, who had been the sister of his secondwife. Sarah Brooks. The Committee of Privileges

of the House of Lords after lengthy deliberationsextending over a period of many months came to

the conclusion that iir the time when Morgan Vane

married his deceased wife's sister euch unionswere voidable, although n<.t of themselves void,

and that, therefore. Morgan Vane's son by histhird wife was legitimate, thanks to which thepresent Lord Barnard Is now a peer of the realm,

aster of Raby Castle and in possession of an in-come of 1250.000 a year.

Lord Lyndhursfs initiation of the act of IS3SWhich bears his num.- was due to his anxiety tooblige his intimate friend, the seventh Duke ofBeaufort. The latter had in June. 1822, marriedhis deceased wife's half-sister— that is to say, hersister by the same mother. He had no male Issueby his first marriage, but an only pen by his sec-ond marriage, who became the eighth duke, andfather, therefore, of the present duke. The sev-enth duke had an only brother. Lord GranvllieSomerset, who it was known would raise questions

as to the right of the duke's son to succeed to thetitle and estate*, on the ground of his being theissue of a union forbidden by law. The duk».\ whowas devoted to his son, was especially anxious

that there should J>e no question about his right to

his peerages and entailed estates, and with thisobject in view got his friend. Lord High Chancel-lor Lyadßurat to devise the Lyndhurst act, whichlegalized .illmarriages then existing with deceasedwives' sisters, but made illegal all such unionscontracted thereafter. Having accomplished this,

the duke then proceeded to propitiate his brotherby settling upon him a targe sum of money, up

well as a considerable amount of the unentailedrstates Lord Granville Somerset left three sonsand two daughters, and as the none have no maleIssue all the property thus alienated from the

ducal house of Beaufort willpass but of the family
