The following special despatches to the Hznatp have been received from our cor- wespondents in the Russian and British capitals :— Sr. Perensnure, Jan. 23, 1874. ‘Tho ceremonies of the royal marriage com- ‘menced st noon to-day, in the presence of a large and brilliant assemblage, at the Winter Palace. THE COSTUMES. ‘The various galleries were filled with ladies, ‘sumptuously attired. There was a prevalence of peculiar Russian costumes, made up mainly of velvet and diamonds. The gen- tlemen all wore uniforms, with the exception | of the American diplomates. THE BRIDAL PROCESSION. After assembling, a procession was formed ‘with the grand equerries, chamberlains and other officers of Court leading. Then came ‘the Ozar Alexander and the Czarina; the Im- perial Prince, the Czsrowitz and his wife (Princess Dagmar; the Prince and Princess of Males; Crown Prince, Frederick William, and 3Orown Princess of Germany; Prince and {Princess of Denmark and Prince Arthur of England. Then came the bride and bride- groom, the bridegroom wearing the Russian maval uniform. APPEARANCE OF THE BRIDE. The bride, Princess Maria Alexandrovna, rwas splendidly apparelled in a long. crimson velvet mantle, trimmed with ermine, and wore @ coronet of diamonds, Her train was borne up by four pages. A GLITTERING THRONG, ‘Then followed an immense procession, made up of members of the imperial Russian fam- aly, princes, princesses and court officials, the ‘Imperial Russian Prince, wearing the uniform of the Ouitassiers, the Prince of Wales the scarlet British uniform, and the Prussian \Prince that of a Russian colonel. All of the gentlemen were decorated with the insignia of the Russian Order of St. An- drew. PRINCESS ALEXANDRA, The Princess of Wales was dressed in dark yetimson velvet, and wore a diamond coronet ‘and collar, with a pearl necklace. THE CROWN PRINCESS OF GERMANY. The Imperial German Princess was habited the same as the Russian Princess, in a dress of blae velvet, with gold trimmings. SILVER WEDDING Favors. Prince Arthur, of England, wore the uni- form of the British rifle brigade when acting @s groomsman, and all other persons present eppegred wearing wedding favors of silver. THE ARRIVAL AT THE CHURCH, ‘The procession, ypon reaching the Rusgiqn NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, JANUARY 24, 1874. —WIitH SUPPLEMENT. church, was received by the Metropolitan, at the head of the members of the Russian Church Holy Synod, bearing crosses, sacred vessels and holy watet, The Emperor of Russia conducted the bride ‘and brideffoom to the middle of the church, assuming a station with the Empress imme- diately behind them. Around the bridegroom stood Prince Arthur and the Grand Dukes. THE RINGS. The wedding rings were borne on golden salvers and deposited on the altar, tem- porarily, by the Imperial Confessor, until they were placed on the fingers of the bride and bridegroom. THE DECORATIONS. The magnificent chapel was illuminated with wax candles and the floor covered with a carpet of velvet with a pattern of crimson and gold. The pillars of the altar were covered with gold. THE GREBK CEREMONY. The Greek marriage ceremony was unique, There was an absence of music. The chants were intoned, and there were prayers offered up. During the service crowns were held sus- pended over the heads of the bridal pair, Prince Arthur holding the crown over the Duke of Edinburgh and Prince Sergius of Russia the crown over the bride. The Imperial Confessor then said: — “Thou servant of God, Alfred Ernest Ed- uard, art crowned for this handmaiden of God, Marie Alexandrovna, in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.’’ Prince Arthur, becoming tired of holding up the heavy crown, was relieved. Then was read the Epistle of Paul to the Ephesians, fifth chapter, from the twentieth to the twenty-third verse inclusive, thus: — Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ ; Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God. Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the Church ; and he is the Saviour of the body. After the Epistle came the reading of the Gospel, the Bible account of the marriage at Cana in Galilee, thus: — And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there; And both Jesus was called and his disciples to the marriage. And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine. Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? Mine hour is not yet come. His mother saith unto the servants, What- soever he saith unto you do it. And there were set there six water pots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece. Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. And he saith unto them, Draw out now and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it. When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water, that was made wine, and knew not whence it was (but the servants which drew the water knew), the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, And saith unto him, Every man at the be- ginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him. Then the crowns were removed and the married couple walked thrice around a raised dais, holding the tip of the confessor’s robe in one hand and a lighted candle in the other. HOLY COMMUNION. At the conclusion of the ceremony the sacra- nrental cup was brought forth, blessed, and its contents partaken of by the bridal pair, the confessor presenting the cross, which the bride and bridegroom both kissed. ADMONITION AND BENEDICTION. The deacon delivered an eloquent admoni- tion on the marriage duties, and immediately afterwards the choir chanted ‘Glory to Thee, © Lord,” concluding with the pronouncement of the benediction by the clergyman. Thus ended the Greek service. LEAVING THE RUSSIAN CHAPEL. The procession slowly reformed, the party proceeding to the Hall Alexander, for the per- formance of the Anglican Church service. THE ANGLICAN SERVICE. Very Reverend Dean Stanley, of West- minster Abbey, officiated, The hall is rather small. The walls were decorated with battle pictures, Dean Stanley, who, during the solemniza- tion of the Greek Church service wore a Prot- estant Episcopal Doctor of Divinity’s hood and gown, and who now appeared at the altar wearing an Episcopal surplice, with the jewelled collar of the Order of the Bath around his neck, was assisted by two of the resident English clergy. The members of the English colony, in- cluding bankers and merchants, were gath- ered on the left of the altar. Conspicuous among them were Governor Jewell, the Amer- ican Minister; Lord Loftus, the English Minister, and the officials of the Diplomatic Corps. Many Englishmen in scarlet uniforms were also present. GORTSOBAKOFF. Especially noticeable was the venerable Prince Gortschakoff, surrounded by the lead- f members of the Russian nobility. “They gathered on the right side of the altar. The Episcopal chante were given by Rus- sian chorister Inds clad in long crimson dresses. When the marriage procession entered the bride walked between her father and the bridegroom. Prince Arthur walked behind. The beautiful Anglican wedding service was then impressively performed by Dean Stanley, the Prince and Princess responding according to the form enjoined in the Book of Common Prayer. The delivery of the final benedic- tion—‘‘God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Ghost, bless, preserve and keep you”— was especially touching. CONGRATULATIONS. The service being concluded, Dean Stanley congratulated warmly the newly married couple. Several Roman Catholic dignitaries were present, MAN AND WIFE. The bride looked carnest, sweet and fasci- nating. The bridegroom was grave and self- possessed. . THE OTHER ROYAL LADIES. The Princess of Wales was lovely, pale and delicate. The German Crown Princess looked hearty—the image of her mother, Queen Victoria. TWO SOVEREIGNS OF THE FUTURE. The Prince of Wales was apparently on ex- cellent terms with the German Prince, and both looked extremely well. THE EMPRESS MOTHER'S EMOTION. During the ceremony in the English chapel the Empress of Russia, being a confirmed in- valid and much fatigued, sat down. She seemed overcome with emotion, holding a handkerchief to her eyes when the newly mar- ried couple came to salute her. A MAS8 OF COLOR. The ceremony being concluded, the crowd dispersed. There was a frighful rush on the stairways. The whole formed a wonderful mass of color—the gorgeous decorations, the variegated uniforms, the colored turbans and Asiatic robes from Bokhara and Samarcand, and over all towered a big cuirassier of the Guard, with his silver helmet surmounted by golden eagles. THE KHIVAN HERO IN THE CRUSH. Old General Kaufmann, the Khivan hero, got entangled in the mass, but, being recog- nized by the Crown Prince, was instantly rescued. GOVERNOR JEWELL. Much attention was paid by the Russian dignitaries to Governor Jewell and the mem- bers of his family, who are extremely popular. THE RESERVED GUELPH. There was, of course, much criticising of the bridegroom, and his reserved and solemn manner created an unfavorable impression. The affable bearing of the Prince and Prin- cess of Wales elicited cheers from the popu- lace. PROFANUM VULGUS. On coming into the street the police were found driving the crowd and Cossack horse- men charging to and fro, clearing the way for the distinguished personages. WEDDING CHIMES. The magnificent bell of the St. Petersburg church kept pealing during the day. Salvoes of artillery of 100 guns were fired on the conclusion of the Greek service, all forming an extraordinary combination of ceremony, wealth, pomp and splendor. THE IMPERIAL BANQUET. After the marriage rites there was a ban- quet at the palace, Mlle. Adelina Patti sing- ing, and subsequently a ball at St. George's Hall, winding up with a grand Russian polo- naise by the members of the Imperial family and the distinguished guests. PROCESSION TO THE BRIDAL CHAMBER. At the conclusion of the bull the bridal couple were formally marched to the bridal chamber, accompanied by the Emperor and the officers of the court. The festivities were continued after the re- tirement of the happy couple, the Emperor being present. A SUNNY Day. During the day the weather was sunny and warm, thawing the snow. There was only a limited display of popular enthusiasm. An illumination of the public squares of the city took place. The general scene was one of splendid fes- tivity. The Rejoicings in Great Britain. Lonvon, Jan. 23—Evening. The English festivities on account of the marriage of the Duke of Edinburgh have been generally postponed until the arrival of the bridal couple in England. With the exception of special services, sa- lutes and peals of bells London took little notice of the event. The provinces exhibited a greater amount of joy. In most of the provincial towns there have been banquets, processions, bell peals, bonfires, and outdoor gatherings. Windsor Castle, the residence of the Prince of Wales at Sandringham and the other build- ings occupied by the royal family are pro- fusely decorated with bunting. Throughout the entire country the bells are ringing in honor of the nuptials, and mar- riage services are being celebrated in the Eng- lish churches. Flags are displayed from all the public and many private buildings in honor of the mar- riage, E/linburgh is brilliantly illuminated. “In many places the trophies of tha Crimean / war have been removed. AN IMPERIAL WEDDING IN 1839, iredinclicansrea A Brilliant speetacie. Thero was another Grand Duchess Mario, aunt of the bride of yesterday, married less than thirty-five years ago to the Duke de Leuchtenverg, son of Eugene de Beauharnais and grandson of the Empress Josephine, They were wnited in the chapel of the Winter Palace, as the nuptials of the Duke of Edinburgh were solemnized. The Marquis de Cus- tine, who was present on the occasion, states that the walls and the roof of the chapel, the habili- ments of the priests and their attendants all glit- tered with gold and jewels, “There are riches enough here,” ne says, “to astonish the least poetical imagination. The spectacle vies with the most fanciful description in the ‘Arabian Nights.’ It is like the poetry of ‘Lalla Rookn’ or the mar- vellous lamp— that Oriental poetry in which sensa- tion prevails over sentiment and thought. The chapel was filled with the representatives of all the Sovereigns of Europe and almost of Asia; by strangers, like myself, admitted in the suite of the diplomatic corps; by the wives of the Ampassa- dors and by the great officers of the Court, A balustrade separated us from the circular enclosure within which the altar was raised. The alter is like a low, square table, Places in the choir were reserved for the imperial family. I have seen few things,” continues the Marquis, “that could com- pare with the magnificence and solemnity which attended the entrance of the Emperor into the chapel." BLAZING WITH GOLD AND JEWKLS he appeared, advancing with the Empress and followed by the Court retinue. All eyes were tm- mediately fixed upon him and his family, among whom the betrothed pair shone conspicuously. A Marriage of inclination, celebrated in broidered habiliments and in a place so pompous, was a novelty which crowned the interest of the scene. Although the Court was numerous and the chapel small, there was no contusion, The first ladies of the Russian Court and the wives of the Ambassa- dors of the other courts graced with their presence the circumference of tae chapel. At the lower end, which terminated in a brilliantly painted rotunda, were ranged the whole of the Imperial family, The gilded ceiling, reflecting the ardent rays of the sun, formed a species of crown around the treads of the sovereigns and their children. THE ATTIRE AND DIAMONDS OF THE LADIES shone with a magic splendor in the midat of all the treasures of Asia which beamed upon the walls of the sanctuary, where royal magnificence seemed to challenge the majesty of God, whom it honored without forgetting its own. All this gorgeous display is wonderful, especially to us, if we recall the time when a marriage of a daughter of the Czar would have been scarcety heard of in Europe and when Peter the Great declared that he had a right to leave hiscrown to whomsoever he Pleased. During the mass at & Greek marriage there ig a moment when the betrothed drink to- gether out of the same cup. Afterwards, accom- panied by the offictating priest, they pass three times around the altar, hand in hand, to signify the conjugal union and the fidelity which should attend their walk through Life. These ceremonies being ended a crown was next held for a consider- able time over the head of each of the newly married pair—the crown of the Grand Duchess by her brother, the Hereditary Grand Duke, the position of which the Emperor himself (onee more leaving his prayer desk) took care to adjust, with a mix- ture of good nature and minute attention that it Would be difilcult to describe, The crown of the Duke was held by the Russian Ambassador at Paris. When the officiating bishop presented tne married pair to their august parents the latter embraced them with a warmth that was affecting. ‘The moment afterwards the Empress threw her- self into the arms of her husband—‘‘an effusion of tenderness,” remarks the Marquis de Custiae, “which would have better suited a chamber tuan achapel."? Before the benediction, according to custom, TWO DOVES WERE LET LOOSE IN THE CHAPEL; they quickly settled on a glided cornice which jutted out directly over the heads of the wedded pair, and there they never ceased billing and cooing during the whole mass. THE BRIDE AND BRIDEGROOM. The Grand Duchess Marie was just the same age when married as her niece, the Duchess of Edin- burgh, is at this moment, In the month of June, 1839, when her nuptials took place, she is described as having been extremely gracetul; her eyes biuee and her fair complexion possessed all the delicate freshness of early youth; openness and intelligence united formed the predominant expression of her face. The Princes# and her sister, the Grand Duchess Olga, were the most beautiful persons then at the Russian Court. The bridegroom, Maximilian Eugene Napoleon, Duke de Leucnten- berg, had nothing distingué in his features, He looked more like @ smart sub-lleutenant than a prince. During the mass he appeared singularly impatient to be alone with his wife, and the eyes of the whole assembly were directed by a kind of spontaneous sympathy towards the two pigeons perched above the altar. The priests and choir CHANTED THR TE DEUM, and discharges of artillery outside announced the consecration of the marriage in the city. The effect of this exquisite music, mingled with the thunder of the cannon, the ringing of bells and the distant acclamations of the people, was inexpressibly grand. During the “Te Deum,’ at the moment when the two choirs were responding to each other, the tabernacle opened and the priests were seen, their heads adorned with sparkiing tiaras of pearls, and their bodies clothed tn robes of gold, over which their silver beards fell majestically; some of their beards reach as faras the waist, The religious ceremony in the Greek chapel was followed by a second nuptial benediction by a Catnolic priest, which took place in one of the halls of tne palace. After these two marriages the bride and bride- groom and thelr family met at table. The festivi- ties in the evening were on a magnificent scale, THE ROMANOFF DYNASTY. The Romanoff dynasty, of which the present im- perial family of Russia 1s the chief representative, is said to have derived its origin from a Lithuanian prince of the fourth century ; but however this may be, it iscertain that the family did not make its appearance in Russia until the fourteenth century, when Andrew Kalyla emigrated from Prussia to Moscow, in 1341, and entered the service of the then Grand Duke Simeon the Fierce. Andrew's de- scendants became Bojars in the fifteenth century, The Czar Romanvitch Jurevitch, the fifth direct de- scendant from Andrew, died in 1543, leaving # son and a daughter, the latter of whom became Czarina by marriage with Ivan the Terrible. The former, Nikita Romanvitch Inrief, by his nuptials with the Princess Susdal—a direct descendant from @ brother of Alexander Neveskoi—was also allied to the royal race of Rurik. Nikita was one of the regency during the minority of Feodor, and his eldest son Feodor, under the name of Philarete, was elevated to the rank of Archimandrite and Metropolitan of Rostof. During the reign of the faise Dimitri the Romanoffs supported that party who tendered the Russian crown to the Polish Prince, and Philarete had gone with that view to Poland, where A SUDDEN BURST OF NATIONAL SENTIMENT put a stop to these negotiations and the unlucky envoy was thrown into prison oy the enraged Poles. Tha national party then proceeded to the election of @ native sovereign, who should be as Closely allted as possible by blood to the race of Rurik, February 1, 1613. The choice fell upon Nicholas Feodorvitch, who ts considered the orig- inal founder of the present dynasty. He was not at the time yet seventeen years old, He was educated by his mother, a woman of rare excel- lence of character, who regarded the elevation of her son with great alarm, but was compelled to yield to the urgent solicitations of the Bayards and prelates, to whose influence Michael's election Was mainly owing. He immediately took vigorous measures to expel the Swedes and Poles, who had takey possession of several districts of Russia, But, his troops were few in number and badly disiplined, and an invasion of the Cossacks of the Don taking place at this juncture, aided by a “party of petty nobies of his own country, Nichoias!

(1801-1825), but, as he left no issue, the crown at his death devolved by right upon his next brother, Constantine. Constantine tad, nowever, in compliance with the wish Of his elder brother, previously relinquished his claims to supreme power, and bis third brother, Nicholas L, became in 1825 Czar of alt the Russias. Nicholas died in 1855 and the present Emperor, his soa, Alexander U., became the reigning monarca. THR RUSSIAN CALENDAR. ‘The Russian government atill adheros to the old style calendar, thus making a differenee of twelve days between their computation of time and our, Yesterday was January 11 in oficial quarters in St. Petersburg. The Julian (old) style of reckon- ing was found 1,582 years after the birth of Christ by an accumulation of errors to have made an ad- vance of son daya beyond the correct poins, the vernal equinox falling on the 11th instead of the 21st March, as it did at the time of the Council of Nice, A.D. 325. The shifting of days bas caused great disturbance by unfixing the time of celo- brating Easter, and bence of all other movable }, feasts, Accordingly Pope Gregory XILI., alter deep study and calculation, ordained that ten days Should be deducted trom the year 1582 by calling what would have been, according to the old calen- dar, October 5, the 16th October, 1583; and in ocder that the change might not recur, it was further ordered that every 100 years (1800, 1900, 2100) should not be counted a leap year excepting every fourth hunared years, beginning with 2,000, In Spain, Portagal and Italy the Pope was exactly obeyed. In France the change took place the same year. It was generally accepted in the Catholic countries, but the Protestants declined to accede to this purely scientific improvement, because it was introduced by Gregory. It was finally adopted in the Continent in 1700, but it was not till 1752 that the change was legaltzed by act of Parlia- ment, in Great Britain, Russia 1s the only coun- try that now adheres to the old style, which ren- ders it necessary, when a letter is thence ad- dressed, that two dates be given—the old and new style—there being now a difference between them of twelve days; for it willbe observed that the year 1500 was not considered by us a leap year.
