The Cumberland Presbyterian Church,
on Court street, was filled to overlooking
last night by the youth and beauty Of the
city to witness the marriage Of Mr., Bcnja-
min NJ Stainback, a popular young bust
ness man OF this city, to Miss Lille Brown
Fisher, one OF Memphis most charming
daughters, The crowd had pretty well
filed all available seats by s o'clock, but
other crowds came pressing forward anx-
ious to witness the happy event, until
scarce space enough was left in which to
move The organ, that had been been
discoursing lively airs, changed for mo-
ment to soft, sweet symphony aud all
eyes were turned toward the door, expect
ing the bridal party. They were soon
gratifed. Eight ushers, in couples,
marched down the aisle, followed by the
bridegroom and his fair bride. The whis-
poring melody OF the organ changed and
burst forth into loud aud Joyous peals Us the
party entered. Four ushers Uhere were no
waitcrsl took their places ON either side of
the altar The bridal couple stood in the
floating clcrgymen in front OF them. The
ceremony was performed 10y the Rev. q.
L. StainbaCk, father OF the groom, and an
old citizen of Memphis, though now Of
McMinnville, Tenn, assisted by the Rev.
ii. A. Jones, pastor OF the church. The
ceremony was beautiful and most inn
prcssiye. The officiating clergyman spoke
ieelingly-his soul was in his words. In
handing the ring TO the groom he said:
This ring is perfect circle. II has no
beginning and no end, and Is therefore a
fit emblem OF eternity. May the love, the
confidence and the trust which You have
mutually reposcd in each other be as
lasting rs that eternity which is symbol.
lied by this ring"
At the conclusion of the ceremony, the
Rev. H. A. Jones offered up a iprycnt and
eloquent prayer, at the conclusion Of which
and while murmuN Of admiration mingled
with the inspiring music, the bridal party
filed on, of the church. They were fol-
lowed by the yasi coucuursc, 100 people
or thercabout, followed out into tlC
darkness OF the night, made luminous by
the light OF pure, unscllish love, and fol-
lowed by the earnest hopes and heartfelt

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE prsPATcH.l
NEW YORK, September N.-Tne propo-
sition of the Grand Army to undertake the
erection and completion within two years OF
the Grant monument, seems to be regarded
with some misgivings by members Of the
Monument Association. Secretary Rich
ard L. Greener, Of the Association, says his
committee will welcome the cooperation Of
thee. A. r. in the work OF providing suita-
BILE memorial of the great soldier, but some
OF the propositions made by members Of the
Grand Army cannot command the aid OF
the Monument Association. Mr.. Greener
vigorously defends the policy Of the COM
mittee in making haste slowly.
The situation is this: There is $130, 900
received from popular subscriptions on hand
and drawing good rate OF interest. Sixty
or 20 designs in competition for prizes,
amounting to So 800, have been submitted.
A committee OF experts has selected five OF
these designs which it recommends shall re-
ceiye the prizes offered. The full commit
tee has not acted upon this report. and 1t is
not even decided that one Of the five, or. in
deed, any design yet submitted shall be
finally accepted. The members of the COM
mittee are many OF them in doubt whether
any form of memorial yet submitted is ade-
quate to the subject, or would meet the pop
ular taste and expectations.
when our design is accepted, Secretary
Greener said, 'and we show the public just
what we want to do, I apprehend no diff
Guilty in getting what money we need.
Many people have assured us they will con-
tribute literally as soon as we are ready to
use the money. We are getting along very
rapidly, in comparison with the history OF
the Washington Monument"
General Floyd Glarkson, Commander Of
Lafayette Post, said to-day that he had al
ready received assurances from other posts
in the State that they would cooperate
heartily in the movement to complete the
monument before 1892 General Clarkson
believes that two years is ample time in
which to complete the monument, and it
should be dedicated on or before the date of
opening the Worlds Fair. He denies that
the plan offered by General Viele was the
one favored by his post or committee. He
hadn't heard Of General Viele's plan until
to-day. and had no particular form Of menu
orial in mind. He hoped the Grand Army
might be able TO cooperate with the Monu-
ment Association in pushing the memorial
to prompt completion.
