The Bight Hon. E. Lowe, who filled successively the offices of Chancellor of the Exchequer and Home Secretary in the Liberal Cabinet, is to be raised to the peerage. The Forte is dismissing his English Inspectors of Gendarmes, who were appointed during and after the late war. Princess Frcderica Sophia Marie of Hanover, eldest daughter of H.E.H. Duke of Cumberland, has been married at Windsor Castle to Haunington, her father's secretary. The Eoyal Family of Hanover and the Prince rind Princess of Wales were not present at the ceremony. It is stated that the revenue of the Indian Government was over-estimated by £3,000,000, for election purposes. The Standard believes that the exclusion of the Eadical element from the new Ministry will render Mr Gladstone's course in the House of Commons a difficult one. Her Majesty hesitated to send for Mr Gladstone to form a new administration, but yielded to the persuasions of Lorn Hartington and Earl Granville.
