caught up with flowers. The sashes were
of the same material as the dresses.
Four of these ladies were distinguished
by pink roses and the other four by
blue flowers All things being in
readiness, Rev. DR.. Tiffany proceeded
with the ceremony according to the
form of the Methodist Episcopal
Church. Every one preserved marked
silence, and listened attentively to every
word, while closely watching the manner
and countenances of the bridal pair.
The ceremony over, the minister was
the first to kiss the bride. She immedi-
ately turned to her father, who embraced
and kissed her. Then the mother APP
preached and kissed her daughter, as did
also the brothers of the bride and nu-
merous relatives and female friends.
The newly made husband enjoyed his
share of Handwriting and orally ex-
pressed congratulations.

IN that Congressional district, stand in
the way Of the asylum being located at
all unless just where it suits them and
their neighbors. The spirit they have
manifested lays them open to criticism
which might not be the most hattering.
With them it is Humboldt or nowhere.
1t happens fortunately, that unless the
location is made, the term of the COM
missioners will expire next November,
when the Governor will appoint men who
can see beyond the Chinese wall CT their
own neighborhood. AS a specimen OF
the influences to which two of the gem
tlemen cater we append the following
polite and dignifed article from the
Dresden Democrat, the home organ of
one of the Commissioners:
Colonel John A. Gardner, Colonel
George w. Day and DR.. Rogers were
appointed by the Governor to select
site for the West Tennessee Insane Asy-
lum. Their action had TO be approved
by the Governor. Upon reporting their
action to Governor Brown he looks
around for as many insane experts as
possible to assist him in his insane duties.
BE organized an insane cabinet pro tenn.
to assist him in the discharge Of duties
that the Legislature had imposed upon
him. With flourish of trumpets and
cortege the Governor and his
experts took special train for Hum
boldt. Protecting themselves against
the malarious influence of that lati-
tude in copious drafts Of whisky,
these mountain air Middle Ten
nesseeans proposed to examine the
grounds. After the body guard had
drank whisky enough to hoatthe asylum
when built, the party returned and the
experts advised Governor Brown that the
did not understand the
law or the facts, and that there was not
a spring of pure running water on the
that would furnish 10000 or
loo, 900 gallons OF water per day. This
report was made out after the whisky
had given out and they supposed that
every insane man would be as dry as
they were
Upon the Recommendation of Calien-
Ter, Cheatham aud Jones, Governor
Brown refused to approve Of the loca-
ion at Humboldt.

HOW BOOKS are Suppressed.

A curious literary anecdote has
reached us of the times of Henry Viii.
Tenstall, Bishop Of London, accused at
that day for his moderation in preferring
the burning Of books to that Of authors,
which was then getting into practice, to
testify his adherence of Tyndafs prin-
ciples, who had printed translation OF
the New Testament, sealed book for
the multitude, thought of purchasing
all the copies Of Tyndars translation,
and anuihilating them in the common
fame. This occurred to him when pass
ing through Antwerp in 1929, then
place OF refuge for the Tyndalists. de
employed an English merchant there for
this business, who happened to be Sc.
cret follower of Tyndal, and acquainted
him with the Bishops intention. Tyn-
dial was extremely glad to hear OF
the project, for he was DESTROYS of print
ing a more correct edition OF his version;
the first impression still hung on his
hands, and he was too poor to make a
new one he gladly furnished the En-
glish merchant With all his unsold copies
which the bishop as eagerly bought, and
had them ell publicly burnt in Cheap
side. The people not only declared this
was burning of the word of God, .
but it inhamed the desire of reading that
volume; and the second edition was
sought after at any price. when one OF
the Tyndalists, who was sent to London
to sell them, was promised by the Lord
Chancellor, in a private examination,
that he should not suffer if he would
reveal who encouraged and supported
his party at Antwerp, the Tyndalist i'm;
mediately accepted the offer, and assured
the Lord Chancellor that the greatest
announcement that they bad was from
Tenstall, the Bishop Of London, who had
bought up half the impression, and
enabled them to produce a second.

THE HUMBOLDr LANp AeENcY.

The action Of the West Tennessee In
sane Asylum Commissioners taken at
Humboldt last Monday is published in
full BY some of our contemporaries this
morning. Messrs. Day aud Gardner re-
port to the Governor in a verbose com
municatiou that the law for establishing
the West Tennessee asylum was intended
Tor East Tennessee. How they arrived
at this conclusion in their official ca
pacity we leave the legal fraternity tC
Judge. 1t is evident that the law was
not framed exactly to suit Humboldt
and that it would have to be materially
changed to suit that locality. DR.
Rogers has made a minority report from
which we learn that the other commits.
sioners decline positively to visit the
sites offered in other counties, although
several of these have the advantages
of good drainage and a bounti
full supply of running water
Messrs. Day and Gardner seem
determined to locate the asylum in then
own DeighborhOod or not at all. Now
wbiIe we naturally desire to see it loea-
ed near Memphis, we are not blind to
he fact that there are excellent sites IN
Ia rdeman and perhaps other
.ounties. But Mr.. Day, who has large

STATE WEDDING.
Nellie Grant and SartOris Become
One and Leave for Europe.
Particulars of the Wedding at the
White House.

WASHINGTON, May 2l.-The absorbing
event Of to day is the marriage of Miss
Grant to Mr.. Sartoris, which took place
this morning at eleven o'clock in the
east room of the executive mansion,
Rev. DR.. Tiffany, Of the Metropolitan
Methodist Episcopal Church officiating.
During the morning and up to the hour
that the guests took their departure the
avenues leading to the mansion were
closed to all persons except those in
vited to the wedding, and there were
policemen on the grounds to prevent
intrusion by outside parties, many of
whom had gathered at the outer gates to
see the guests ride into the enclosure.
The door-tenders had received strict or
ders to admit no one without invitation.
The east room was tastefully and elab-
orately decorated with plants, flowers
and evergreens. On the east side was
a platform raised about foot from the
floor and covered with portion Of the
carpet several years ago presented to
the government by the Sultan Of Turkey.
The platform was arched with evergreens
and flowers, and from its center hung
marriage bell Of large proportions com.
posed Of the choicest Of white flowers.
Splendid new chandeliers were lighted
and handsomely decorated. Never be-
fore has the east room presented so brill
liant display OF floral adornments as
on the present occasion. Punctual to
the hour the invited guests entered the
east room and arranged themselves in
full view Of the platform. The toilets Of
all the ladies were Of the richest de-
scription, and there was profusion Of
point lace. The scene was universally
brilliant, the large display Of flowers,
with their fragrance, adding to the charm
Of the interesting occasion. The bri
dial party passing through the blue room
entered the east room. Their presence
Immediately husbed the company to
silence. Their approach was announced
by music from the marine band. First
came Mr.. Sartoris and Colonel Fred. d.
Grant, the only groomsman; next the
bridesmaids, two by two; President and
Mrs. Grant and her two sons, Ulyssus
aud jesse. These we're followed by
relatives of the family. On reaching
the platform, the President transferred
his daughter to Mr. Sartoris who, with
his bride, ascended the platform where
the officiating minister in waiting re-
ceived them and they took their position
under the wedding bell.
The President and Colonel Grant, to-
gether with Miss Barnes. of the brides.
maids, were the only other persons in
nesrness to the bridal party on the plat.
form. Mrs. Grant and her two bows
were standing in front Of the remainq
seven bridesmaids on the side Of the
structure. The bride wore a white satin
dress deliberately trimmed with point
lace, tulla veil, aud her hair was
adorned with orange blossoms. The
dress Of the groom was in the latest style
