4 DISTINGUISHED Wedding.
MARRIAGE OF CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE
DAUGHTER AT WASHINGTON.

DAUGHTER AT WASHINGTON.
The marriage of Miss Nettie Chase,
daughter of Chief Justice Chase, and Mr..
W. S. Hoyt, of New York, was solemnized
in Washington ON Thursday, 23d inst, at
one o'clock. 1t was one OF the most bril-
liant weddings which ever occurred in
Washington. All the arrangements were
in the utmost good taste, and they were
carried out in entire perfection. 1t was a
beautiful spring day, with bright sunshine,
which was only one of mans auspieiOus
omens for the future happiness of the
welded pair.
st. Johns church is situated on the cor.
ner of H and 10th streets, west of the
neat little park known as Lafayette square,
and distant from the White House only the
width of that square and the White House
grounds and two streets. 1t is q small
church, containing, perhaps, zoo or 800
seats.
Rumor, which, Of course has ne busi-
ness with the affair, says that the pastor,
Rev. John Vaughan Lewis, was much Op-
nosed to the marriage being celebrated in
lent. and that he refused to ofhciate; but
:. this is true, it is easy to see that he
could not resist successfully with the
echoes of the rejoicing of all England at
the marriage of the Princess Louise, in
the same holy season. He at least tender
ed his church for the service, and Bishop
Mcllyaine, of Ohio, an old friend OF the
family, who, not being High Churchman,
had no scruples against celebrating a
marriage at this season, performed the
ceremony.

The Next State to Vote.

Connecticut is the next State to vote
this spring, following New Hampshire
on the Sd proximo. 1t is tho most
waverlng of all Now England States
and is liable to frequent mutations. In
1868 it gave English, Democrat, for
Governor. 1,764 majority. This was
at the spring election. In the follow
ing fall, Grant, for President, carried
the State by 2.936 majority. In 1869
Jewell, Republican, had All majority.
In 1870 the tables were again reversed,
and English, Democrat, was elected by
843 majority. 1t will thus be seen
that few hundred votes have generally
decided the result. In the Forty-frst
Congress the delegation of Connecti-
cut consisted of three Republicans and
one Democrat, the majorities being re-
spectively 796, 424, 1880, and 1,160
If we accept New Hampshire as a
basis to predict the result upon, Con-
necticut will be represented in the
next Congress by at least three Demo-
Gratis. We hope for the better, but can
hardly expect it. When the Repub!i-
cans of New Hampshire, hitherto as
firm in their party allegiance as the
granite of their native hills, waver,
what can be expected of a doubtful
State? Our friends are making no
fight, holding no meetings, and offer
but a passive resistance when they
should take the ofensive.-[Fo [Forney's
Press.
