While the orchestra was playing one of its happiest selections, an<l the guests wero gathered about the tables, the bride quietly slipped away to her room and changed her wedding dress for a heavy gray silk traveling dress. She then returned to the company and was noon afterward joined by the President, who had in the meantime changed his dress suit for a traveling costume. This was about 8:30 o'clook, and the President and liis bride said a, hasty "good-bye" to their friends and left the house through a private exit from the Red room into the south ground. A closed carriage awaited them and us tUey entered and the horses started oil" a shower < i rico was thrown on the carriage and their friends waved them a tinal "Good-speed" from the rear porch. It was expected that the President would try to slip away unobserved and in order to prevent this a number of newspaper men stationed themselves near the southwest entrance to the grounds with carriages convenient to follow the President in ease ho should make his exit by tlia* gate. This was reported to the President, so he instructed his driver to go out of the grounds by another anil almost unused route, and in that way he avoided the reporters altogether. His carriage was driven direct to the Baltimore A Ohio railroad station, where a special train was in waiting to take the President and his bride to Deer Park. They were escorted through the station and into tlieVar provided for them without attracting any attention, and at o'clock the train started off to its destination. The President and his bride were wholly unaccompanied on this journey. They will probably remain at Deer Park about a week, during which time they will occuny a small cottage at tal lied to the hotel, which lia* not yet been opened for the season. From the East room the company pro. ceeded, after a season of promenading and conversation, to the family dinning-room of the mansion where the wedding supper was served. There was mu formal order observed in the supper room, but a collation was served and the guests sut at tho small tables, or slowly promenaded the room and discussed the menu and charted over the event of the evening. The elegantly designed sovenirs of satin boxes containing dainty pieces of tho bridal cakeand each one oearing the hand-painted monogram "C. 1." were received with great admiration. Tho wedding presents were many, bnt they were not exhibited nor will any list be furnished. This is in deference to the wishes of the President. The groom's gift to tho bride was a handsome diamond necklace composed of a single string of brilliants. The presents from Cabinet officers and their wives were mostly articles of jewelry, though there several beautiful presents of silverware. yards in length, of plain white silk tnlle, caught high on the head with a pompon of orange and write myrtle blossoms. Then it fell in myriad folds—for it was very fnll —down the extreme length of the skirt Miss Folsom carried no flowers and wor© no jewelry except an engagement ring containing a sapphire nud two diamonds, and a plain gold wedding ring, which had been placed on her hand before she descended the staircase. A Fivo-OntTux on Ifoifiis llulter Provision is made for the proper stamping and labelling of every package of olemargarine. A tax of 5 cents a pound is imposed on all olomargarine inanufaoturedatid sold, and a penalty is prescribed for tbu purchase or reception for sale of oleniargarine not branded or stamped according to law.

Washington, June —The llouso passed the oleomargarine bill to-day, by a vote of 177 to 101, after 10 duy.>'debate and iillibnsturing. The bill, as it passed the House, contains the following features: —The case of a young lady in Nash waak. N. B., who for jears had been a cripple,, confined to bed much of the time, came tothe notioe of a doctor, who volunteered to treat the sufferer. The offer was accepted, and in a abort time the invalid was about on orntcbes, gaining strength and in a fair way to recovery. As a recompense the doctor offered his hand in marriage. It was accepted, and tbe couple was wedded a few days ago. The bodice was made to be becoming as well as fashionable, and is very tasteful. It is composed of plain satin with two scarfs of the Indian silk muslin, which cross the bosom and are bordered with the same narrow band of flowers that ornaments the skirt. The flowers are equisite in their delicacy and artistic effect. These scafs that cross the front of the bodice are carried to the sides and are there hidden away beneath a broad lappet of satin that crosses the bodice from left to right, and fastens on the right hip. The effect of this commingling of folds of the satin and the softer material was very soft and beautfnl. While the sleeves are a compromise between short and long, they have the effect of reaching only to the elbow. They, in fact, fell below it, and have plisse formed of three cross-way bauds of Indian tnnslin. At the elbow point on the inside of each sleeve were small orange bads, delicate full-bloom flowers and leaves. Seen be; neath the soft folds of the veil the arrangement was perfect in respect to bari mony of detail. The veil was over six Miss Folsom wore a superb gow n of corded ivory satin of extreme thickness. It lias a train nearly live yards iu length, and tho superb effect of the rich material was not lost by drapery. The train was attached to the plain bodice just below the waist behind. It is slightly rounded, and fell in rich folds, with no trimming whatever. The effect of the rich satin, shimmering in the light like moonbeams on waves, was exquisite. The front of the skirt has a draping trom side to side of soft Indian silk, which latter is caught high and fastened almost at the beginning of of the court train on the left side. The border of this effective drapery is edged with a band of orange blossoms and leaves of rather diminutive size, and therefore light in effect. With the exception of this finish of white blossoms and tiny green leaves, the drapery is plain. At. the conclusion of the ceremony, Mrs. Folsom, showing traces of deep emotion, was the tirst to tender her congratulations to the newly-married pair. She was followed by Miss Cleveland, the Rev. Mr. Cleveland and the other relatives and friends in turn. While the congratulations were in progress, tho baud, under the leadership of Prof. Sousa, performed the Bridal Chorus and March from "Lolieugrin," and to this music tho President and his wife led the way into the stately East room. Tho adornments of this noble hall were in keeping with its majestic proportions, and its ample space and brilliant illumination afforded an opportunity for a fitting display of the ladies' toilet. "God the Father, God the Son, aud God the Holy Ghost, bless, preserve and keep you; the Lord mercifully till you with all temporal and all spiritual blessings, and grant that you may so live together in this world that in the world to come you may have life everlasting. Amen." The Rev. Mr. Cleveland then pronounced the following benediction ;— Dr. Sunderland (solemnly)—"Forasmuch as Orover and Frances have here agreed and covenanted to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate of wedlock, and have confirmed the same by giving and taking a wedding ring, now, therefore, in the presence of this company, in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost, I pronounce and declare that they are husband and wife—and what God hath joined together let no man put asunder." "In token of the same let the wedding ring be passed." [The groom placed the ring on the bride's finger.] The bride responded in a low but clear voice, "I do." Dr. Sunderlund—"Frances, do you take this man whom yon hold by the hand to be your lawful wedded husband, to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate of wedlock? Do you promise to love hiui, honor, comfort and keep him in sickness and in health, in joy and in sorrow, and forsaking all others keep you only unto him as long you both shall live f" The groom (firmly)—"I do." "Grover," said the minister, "do you take this woman whom you hold by the hand to be your lawful wedded wife, to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate of wedlock f Do you promise to love her, cherish, comfort and keep her in sickness and in health, in joy and in sorrow, aud forsaking all others keep you only nnto her so lo>ig as you both shall live t" [The groom and bride joined hands.] To the bride and groom : "If you desire to be united in marriuge you will signifythesame by joining yourright hands." wife, and twain shall be one flesh. It was constituted by our Creator in the first paradise. It was confessed by patriarch and priest, prophet and apostle. It was confirmed by the teaching and adorned with the presence of the Redeemer, and has been honored by the faithful keeping of all good men and women since the world began. It is not, therefore, to be undertaken lightly or unadvisedly, bnt soberly, discreetly and in the Jear of God. Into this holy estate this man aud this woman come to enter. If auy now can show just cause why they may not be lawfully united in marriage let him now speak, or else hereafter forever hold his peice." —It is reported that a deposit of genuine meerschaum has been found on the beach near Yaquina, Oregon. , About half past C o'clock the wedding guests began to arrive, their carriages reaching up to the main door of the mansion through the great irou gates on Pennsylvania avenue. The first arrival was Secretary Lamar, at 6:37. He was closely followed by Rev. Dr. Sunderland aud wife, and during the next few minutes there came in quick succession Postmaster-General Vilas and wife, Mr. Wilsou S. Dissell, Secretary and Mrs. Eodicott, Secretary Bayard, Secretary and Mrs. Whitney and Secretary Manning and his wife. Removing their wraps in the state diuiug-room, all the guests proceeded to the Blue room, where they were received by Miss Rose Cleveland. For a few minutes the guests chatted gaily, but conversation was quickly suspended at 7:15 o'clock, p. M., when a selected orchestra from the Marine Band, stationed in the corridor, struck up the familiar strains of the wedding march from Mendelssohn's Midsummer Night's Dream, and all eyes were turned to the doorway to catch the first glimpse of the coming bride and groom. From the very dawn of the wedding day the city seemed to be alive to the approaching event. Little knots of idlers talked it over on the sidewalks in front of the hotels, sedate matrons gossiped as they passed along the streets, and bevies of langhing girls chatted and speculated about the coming momentous ceremony. "Washington, D. C'., Jane 2.—Other weddiogs there have been at the White Honse—eight in all—but never before to day has the highest dignitary in the land bowed his bead within its historic walls to receive the blessing of the chnrch on his nnion in the holy bonds of matrimony. Addressing the company, Dr. Snnderland said: "Marrice is honorable among all men, in that a man (.hall leave his f<t« ' ther and mother and shall cleave unto bis "For as much as we are assembled to observe the holy rites of marriage it is needful that we should seek the blessing of the Great God our Father whose institution it is, nnd therefore I beseech you now to follow me with reverent hearts in prayer to Him. Almighty and everlasting God, the Father of our spirits, the framer of our bodies, the giver of every good and perfect gift—Thou who canst see the end from the beginning, who knowest what is best for us, Thy children, and has appointed the holy rite of marriage to be sacredly observed throughout all generations, regard now, we beseech Thee, Thy servant our Chief Magistrate—endow him plenteously with Thy grace and (ill him with wisdom to walk in Thy ordinances. Be very nigh to him in the midst of many cares and grave responsibilities— day by dav may thy law direct him and Iby strength uphold him, and be Thon forever his sun and shield. And be graciously pleased to look down upon this Thy daughter, even as Thou didst favor the chosen Kebecca and many noble women that have adorned the world. May she indeed be a precious boon of good to her husband to cheer aud help him continually—a woman gifted with the beauty of the Lord and shedding the sweet influence of a Christian life upon the Nation in whose sight she i« to dwell. Wilt Thon approve what we, Thy servants, come to do In Thy name, by Thine authority, and under the laws of the land in which we live, and graciously assist, this man and this woman, who are here to be united in the holy bonds of wedlock according to the institution of Thy words. Mercifully be pleased, Almighty God, to vouchsafe to each of them Thy grace, that they may well and truly weigh the unfailing vows which they are now about to make to each other in the presence of this company and before Thee, and that they may be enabled hereafter at all times so to live together as to rejoice in the solemnization of this uuion with joy unspeakable and full of glory, through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.'" A hush fell upon the assemblage as Dr. Sunderland stepped forward to his position fronting the wedding couple, with the Rev.Wm. Cleveland (the President's biother) at his left hand. Iu a distinct tone of voice and with a deliberate utterance, the Doctor began the simple and beautiful wedding service at follows: Starting from the western corridor, on the upper floor, the President came slowly down the western stair-case with his bride leaning on his arm. They were unaccompanied, even the bride's mother awaiting her with the other guests. Passing through the central corridor, the bride aud groom enterred the Blue room aud took a position near its southern wall, which was completely hidden from sight by a mass of uodding palms, tropical grasses and an endless variety of choice llowers. The crystal chandelier poured a Hood of mellow radiance upon the sceue, aud the colors of the massive banks of scarlet begonias aud royal jacqueminot roses mingling with the blue and silver tints of the frescoed walls aud ceiling gave a warm and glowing tone to the whole brilliant interior. The delicate ivory shades of the bride's wedding-gown found au exquisite setting in the masses of crimson roses immediately beyond. The President was in full evening dress, with turn-down collar, white lawn necktie aud white enameled studs. {§§f°IlocK Bottom Prices. TOHN G.
