INTERESTING MARRIAGE-GRAND FEs-
rlvITIEs. Yesterday will long be remem-
bered by many of our citizens as the
wedding day of Mr.. Morris B. Loewen-
slime and Miss Rebecca Folz, which
event caused quite sensation among
the Israeitsh portion of the community.
The wealth and high standing in society
Of the families of the bride and groom,
their popularity, and the grand prepare
tons made for the interesting occasion
caused the Synagogue to be crowded
with ladies and gentlemen some time
before the appearance of the wedding
party, who, on arriving, took their posi-
ton in front of the altar The bride
was supported on her right by her flu
ture mother and sister-in-law, while on
the left of the groom stood his father and
father.in-law. The Rev. DIR. Tuska
united the couple according to the rites
Of the Jewish Church, and delivered
very feeling and impressive address.
The bride was attired in an elegant
white silk robe, with short sleeves and
large puifs, trimmed with beautiful and
costly point lace, headed with handsome
white bugles, the body being trimmed
with buttons of the same material. Her
brow was encircled with wreath of
orange blossoms, her bosom being
adorned by bunch of the same. A
white tulle veil covered her entire figure
and fell in graceful folds over her bridal
robe. She looked beautifully charming,
and caused many of the sterner sex pre-
sent TO think seriously Of following the
example set them on the occasion. The
bridegroom appeared we'll, as if he was
determined to be contented and happy,
and in the words Of Shakespeare, exclaim
And I am rich IN having such jewel,
As twenty seas, if ali their sands were pearl.
The water nectar, and the rocks pure go d.
At the conclusion Of the ceremonies
the happy pair were congratulated and
kissed by their many relatives present,
after which all proceeded TO the Memphis
Club Rooms, on the invitation Of the
brides father, Mr.. T. Folz, to partake OF
an elegant dejenuer. The viands were
of the best description, wine flowed
freely, and the company present, COM
bining about one hundred and fifty per
sons, evinced their appreciation of their
host by doing full justice to what was
before them At the proper time Rev.
Mr.. Tuska proposed the Healths of the
Bride and Bridegroom" accompanied
with chaste and elegant speech. Loud
calls being made for the bridegroom, he
arose and thanked his many friends
present for their kindness remarked that
speech-making was not his forte, but
that he had young brother who would
speak for him. whereupon Mr.. Henry
NJ Loewenstine returned the thanks Of
the bridegroom in a speech that was
clear, forcible and to the point 1.-THE
Ladies was the next toast, which was
responded to by Mr. A. L. FARMLAND,
after which several other toasts were pro-
posed and honored, aud the party ad-
journed to meet in the evening.
The festivities we're resumed in the eve
ming by ball in the Greenlaw Opera
House, about two hundred persons being
present. The youth and beauty of Mem
phis were well represented in the dance
the light from the chandeliers falling on
the rich and tasteful dresses, bright eyes
and glad faces of the jewellers moving
gracefully to the witching melody of
beautiful music, formed a combination
over which the genius of love and beauty
seemed TO preside, and which will be
remembered for many years to come by
those present At midnight the party
moved to the supper room, where the
tables we're loaded down with everything
that fancy could picture, to appease the
appetite and quench the thirst Knives
and forks ratified and corks flew around
quite merrily for awhile, when the
Health of the bride and bridegroom
was proposed Mr. Henry NJ. Loewen-
slime replied in lengthy speech, in
which, on the part Of the bride and
groom, he thanked all present for
their kindness and good wishes
evinced on the occasion, and said
that he knew all would join him in ten
dering to the welded pair the wish that
their happiness in the future might be
unalloyed, their pathway through life
bright and pleasant, ever a smooth road,
lined with iheeboieesi flowers that would
watt to their senses the kind words Of
friends made happy by their good deeds,
and when at last, through the dim vista
of years. their time shall come when
they must meet that grim monster who
conQuers all, may they be able to look
back on the East with satisfaction and be
ready to travel to another and a better
