MARRIAGE OF PRESIDENT
CLEVELAND.

/. esident Cleveland was yesterday
married at the White House u Mis-
Frsnces Folsom, daughter OF his de-
ceased partner, a young lady OF whose
graces Of mind and person the
APPEAL hss had much TO say in
common with its contemporaries all
over the country. The ceremony was
wholly devoid OF anything like
page ,ntry, and was conducted accord
ing to the simple forms of the PTes-
bye, RAN Church, only the friends
of the bride and groom and the
men bsFs OF the Cabinet and their
wives being present. This was in &C.
cordance with the wishes Of the Presi-
dent, who sbhors conspicuity and
show, aud is quiet and retired in his
tsst,s and habits, and because
of a recent bereavement in
the brides family. Mr.. Cleveland
is the fis! President married in the
White-House; the event of yesterday
possesses, therefore, an unusual sig
nificance, and is invested with
historic Importance. Called to fill
the chair Of Washington at an
important epoch in the history OF the
coun ~, a man wholly unused to
national affairs, he has 80 won upon
the people as to gil his fellow Demo-
Gratis with hope of a continuance Of
his administration and break
down the opposition which predicted
failure for him and result
ing disappointment to the nation. He
has won his way to the hearts Of the
people OF whom he is in habit, man
ner and disposition fair representa-
tive, and they send him greetings Of
Joy and happiness from all parts
OF the nation on an coca
sion iraught with go much
importance to him and his fair bride.
They will read OF the simple, uncs-
tentatious ceremonies with pleasure,
and will decline TO indorse the criti'
cisms that in Washington have been
made upon that simplicity, 80 marked
a contrast with the pride and pomp'
OF which Washington has seen so much
OF since Andrew Johnson left theWhits
House. Mr.. Cleveland in this has
been thoroughly American and has
set an example that in future should
be closely followed. He has obeyed
his own wishes and owes no apol-
ogy TO the diplomatic corps for
failure TO invite them to merely
family gathering. Whatever the ex-
treme OF diplomatic courtesy it does
not extend that length, aud the facul-
ty at Washing on will, no doubt, learn
of it in time to withdraw their hasty
resolution Of indignation at what
they regard snub. The mar.
riake of the President OF The United
States does not involve interpa'
tional relations. 1t is purely private
matter that not even in the least de.
gree justi6es anything like the fust
that Is made by diplomatic represent
stives over the marriage of princes
Neither the government nor the
President owe the diplomats either al
apology or explanation. He was mar.
ried in the presence OF his relatives
and those of his bride and OF the mem
bers Of his official family, consulting
his own wishes and that of Mrs
Cleveland, aud his action in this as il
everything else that he has done viii
be indoued by the great body OF thu
people.

THE London Daily NeiOs, in we'll
considered article, ba;ed on current
statistics, admits that settlements on
account of international trade do not
center in London so exclusively as
they did in years past. This is due to
heavy falling Off OF direct imports
and exports, and to a decline in the
exports Of foreign and colonial mer-
chandise. Last year the value Of this
trade was less than $500 200, being
decline OF IL per cent. on the year
1888; this year it is estimated that
the decrease will equal at least 10 per
cent, This decline of entropot trade
indicates a diversion of mercantile
shipping to the more direct routes
offered by Mediterranean, Belgian
and German ports. As merchandise
thus tends to avoid London, so bills
on London become fewer, and its hold
upon foreign financial centers weaker.

Korah of old. There was perceptiblo

glanced at their pcrturbed captain, who
was an old bachelor of the most ortho-
dox kind-rich and hard hearted yet
terribly afraid Of all women. When
Captain Drew saw how terribly fright
ened Susie was and that, try us she

essayed to say something comforting.
Gle saw, too, that she was very come

Driver Ants.

There are certain ants which show
wonderful intelligence, and the driver.
ants" not only build boats, but lauucT
them, too; only, these boats are formed
'of their own bodies They are called
"drivcrs" because Of their ferocity.
Nothing can stand before the attack Of
these little creatures Large pythons
have been killed by them in single
night, while chickens, lizards, and othg.4
animals in Western Africa flee from them
in terror. TO protect themselves from
the heat, they erect arches under which
numerous armies Of them pass in safety.
Sometimes the arch is made Of grass and
earth gummed together by some sccre-
ton, and again it is formed by the bodies
Of the larger ants, which hold themselves
together by their strong nippers, while
the workers pass underthem.
At certain times Of the year, freshets.

drivers" and il is then that these ants
go to sea. The rain comes suddenly,
and the walls of their houses are broken
in by the food, but instead Of coming to
the surface in scattered hundreds and
being swept off to destruction, out Of
the ruins rises black bah that rides,
safely on the water and drifts away. At
the first warning Of danger, the little
creatures rush together, and form a solid
ball of ants, the weaker IN the centre;
often this ball is larger than base ball,
and in this way they float about until
they lodge against some tree upon the
branches of. which they are soon safe
and sound.

A Monster Alaskan Glaciar.

Heading for Glacier Bay we found
flood of bitter cold water so filed with
floating ice that it was quite impossible
to avoid frequent collisions with masses
of more or less magnitude. There was an
almost continual humping along the
ships side as the paddle struck heavily
the ice fragments which we found it inn
possible to avoid. There was also a dull
reverberation as Of distant thunder that
rolled over the sea to us, and when we
learned that this was the cracking of
the ice packs in the gorges we thought
with increasing solemnity Of the majesty
of the spectacle we were about to wit
ness. Thus we pushed forward bravely
toward an ice wall that stretched across
the top Of the bay from one high shore
to the other. This wall Of ice, q precipi-
tous bluff or palisade, is computed to be
from 200 too 500 feet in height. It is
certainly nowhere less than 200 feet, but
most of it is far nearer 500 feet above
sea level, rising directly out of it, over
hanging it and chilling the air percepti-
bly,. Picking our way to within safe
distance of the glacier, we cast anchor,
and were free to go our ways for a whole
glorious day. According to Professor
John Muir-for whom the glacier is de-
servedly named-the ice wall measures
three miles across the front. Ten miles
further back it is ten miles in breadth.
Sixteen tributary glaciers unite to form
the one.-,SaD Brancisco Chronicle

Fighting Ants.

The jolliest sport among the juvenile
Remedies is fighting ants. They scrapc
ap shovelful Of these busy insects from
one colony and carry them TO the next
nearest colony, dumping them together.
The result is Immediately a pitched
battle, which is fought most viciously,
the little warriors literally tearing each
other to pieces, until the last Of the in
teFloPers Is dead. They fight in pairs,
or in threes, fours, and lunches, as it
happens to come handiest, but it is
always eight to finish, and no quarter
asked or shown.-SlR Fraaeiseo CALI

A Little While.

If could see thee once again,
A little while, once more,
Thy tender heart 1 might regain
And my lost peace restore;
You would forget the scorn you felt
So penitent I'd be.
You would forgive while low ! knelt,
If might only see
Thy bright eyes smile on me:
Only little while,
Only oncemore.
If / should SEQ thee once again
And find thee stern and cold;
An ever dead-ah, bitter pain
The bright, strong love of old;
Yea, even while l felt your scorn,
All bitter though it be
And my sad heart with grief were torn
I'd welcome misery,
II thy face could see:
Only little while,
Only once more.
