- Tennyson, says the Sacramento " Bee " has turnod out anbtber alleged poom,this time upon the marriageof the Princess Beatrice to PrinceHenryofßattenburg. Thecentralidea appears to be & beautiful one, complimenting her Royal Highness on not quitting her maternal home and in mingling filial and bridal lovo. Ab is usual, however, with machine-made poetry, it ia probably not phosphorescent with genius. The Associated Press not having tbe enterprise to telegraph tho poem, the "Bee" has procured it by special cable. It will be seen that it ia Bhort, sweet, and to the point: Yon, yon. Henry of Battenburfr! Yon. you. Beatrice of Kn«land! SpUoed. amalgamated, coalesced, dovetailed. You you Victoria of England. Glorious Queon of the immortal Isle I Happiness primitive, primeval 1 Conjugality Klyslan.. You, yon; wife and daughter! Yon. you, hnaband and son!
