POSTMASTER GENERAL VILAS.

Postmaster General Vilas la in the habit o( secluding himself in his room and refusing to sue any one who calls, unless a curd IB Rent in to him, and the object of the visit explained to his uec- iry This is a now rule in the de- partmenta here, and the Senators and Congroaarnen who do not think a cabinet officer has a right to be as exclusive as a Hindoo god, grumble a good deal about it. The other day Congressman Joe Canon of Illinois, who la always In a hurry and never goes anywhere without some Important reason, had buai- neaa with the I'oatottice Department. He had not been in Waahtngtph since the change of the administration, and had never met Mr but he walked up to the door of the ante-room and looked for a messongor to take in his card.

Notwithstanding the disagreeable weather of Wednesday evening, Dec 30th, a large number of invited guests were present at the house of Mr Samuel Furat, two and out-half miles uorih of town, to witness the marriage of Miss Mary Fuist to Mr William Albert McG rath, of Harlem. Precisely at 8 o'clock, the time set, to the wedding march, the bride and groom entered the west room and took their places under an arch of evergreens, whore with the aid of Rev Maitison, of the First Church of Freuport, they aaid the few simple words tLat made them man and wife. The bride was tastefully arrayed in a dress of cream colored satin, and she as well as her affianced wore the customary white kids.

The parties would seem to be well mated. The groom is the sou of Mr Samuel McG rath, of Harlem, four miles from Freeport, and is engaged in farming. The bride is one of the choice young ladies of Lancaster, and has been engaged in teaching, to prepare herself for which she spent some time at Valparaiso, and afterwards at the Jsormal in this State. THE PllFSENTS were numerous and valuable, consist ing of crockery, glassware arid silver, and other things. Among them was a beautiful family Bible, the gift of the parents of the groom, and an elegant silver water pitcher from the parents of the bride.

The refreshments were abundant and nicely served, and were thoroughly appreciated by the happy people present. After several hours spent in conversa tion. singing of "Sweet By and By" fieulah Land" and a closing prayer, at com .1 It was atyerroiduigu. when the guests betrau to depart and mus have been long atjjier many of tuem reached their botaea.

H1DNKY A JOYOUS 1CVKNT AND A (iOOD TIMtC. The residence of Mrs Sidney Smith, on Van Huron street, was thronged with young people last evening, where was given one of the ploasanteat hops of tlie season. It was under the auspices of the young ladies, and Mrs Smith kindly tendered them the use f)f her bomii. Tho decorations were mostly of evergreen, and during the whole evening the parlors presented an animated and brilliant appearance. Suspended from one of the arches was a genuine mistletoe, arid it was quite awhile before the guests knew they were waltzing underneath it.

The mimic was by Prof Gibler, and all are unanimous in declaring that the ladies know well how to get up affairs that are creditable. At 11 o'clock dan ing was abandoned, that due attention might be paid to the refreshments that had been arranged. Threo of "the boyn," Will Emmert, Frank Stocking and Sidney Harden, officiated as waitora, and wore duck couls and wigs, white kid gloves, th(-lr faces being blacked. They were dandies. Freddie Smith took the character of a "daisy," and was doorkeeper, while tlio Misses and Georgia Smith were the court ladies.

The toilets of the ladies were very beautiful and the evening proved onw of great pleasure for all who partici paled. THK included Mr and Mrs Benson, Misses Anna Mayer. Fanny and Lou Smith. Bertha Blade, Maud Mea- iH'fee, of Ottawa, Kansas; Lottie and Mabel Wright, Geiuwive Goodhue, Oarrio and Mollin Emmert, Mae Stevens. Miss Davy, Niagara Falls; Katharine Lathrop, Helen Polk, Carrie Harding, Mae Taylor; Mtssrs A Wright, Silas Benson, 1) Adumson, Will Giles, Charles Hill, Alex Blade, George Munn, II K'Tlin, Warren; Chas Currier, Chicago; Gnorgo PKingsleyand friend.

Prematurely Aered- Many a woman us robbed of those charms which the gentler sex value so highly, and made old before her time by functional irregularities. To such the bloom of youth may be restored by the use of a remedy which has stood the test of time and which is today acknowledged to be without an equal as a cure for all female l)r Pierce'a "Favorite Prescription." By all druggists. The interrogations were fired in rapid succession and with savage explosiveness at Mr Cannon, who replied that he was seeking a messenger or clerk who would take his card to the Postmaster General. "I am the Postmaster General," shouted the excited occupant of the what do you want and who are you?" Mr Cannon cooly replied that he had come to the department on public business; but as the Postmaster General did not seem to be in a frame of mind which would indicate a patient hearing of the case he would defer it until some future time "As to how I came here I came in through the door you have Just locked.

Now if you will unlock that door or show me another way out of this room, will leave you to yourself." Mr Vilas immediately ruahed to another door, opened it, and his visitor passed out, aud the Postmaster General probably does not yet know that the gentleman to whom he was so excessively rude, is one of the ablest and moat prominent members of Congress. Mr Vilas' rudeness to Mr Joahushi Noxnura, the Postmaster. General of Japan, not long ago.caused a great deal of comment in diplomatic circles, although very little has been publicly said about it. This gentleman came to the United States for the purpose of studying our postal system with a view of introducing its features over there, and it would be naturally supposed that as a matter of common politeness Mr Vilas would have shown him all possible politeness; but although he was in Washington all the time 'the Japanese embassador was here he did not see him. According to official etiquette Mr Vilas should have called upon Mr Noxnura immediately after the latter's arrival, should have given him every official and personal attention, entecuiued him for dinner, and shown him that respect which the Japanese Minister's rank and dignity called for.

But Mr Vilas was too busy" to treat the Oriental dignitary with common decency. He did not call upon him; he did not send him a message, and when the Japanese Minister, after waiting awhile for the customery courtesies, called at the Postoillcs Department, Mr Vilaa asked to bo excused, for the rea son that he was "engaged." A clerk was detailed to show the distinguished visitor through the department, as if he were some granger who had come down to spend a few days in sight-seeing. Mr Noxiuira was very handsomely en- tert inod by the members of the diplomatic corps in this city, but received no official attention whoever from the olllcials of the government. The little Japanese Minister, who is very popular in society here and universally respected was driven almost to suicide because of mortification. He was a great man of his country, ou an important mission, who naturally expected to be received with honors becoming his dignity, but was allowed to stay a week or ten days in Washington without so much as a call or card from the official who occupies in the United States a position similar to that he holds in Japan.

The United States is desirous of cultivating intimate political and commercial relations with Japan, and had an op port unity to illustrate that desire, but Mr Vilas w.is so "busy" that he could not treat the embassador from that country with common decency. Not long ago the Japanese Minister gave an elegant banquet to celebrate the birthday of the Emperor. Mr Vilas was not too busy then to accept that invitation. Dec. morning Memphis wim startled by the announcement of tho marriagoment of Charlie N.

Noveral weoko ago a youn? society tjello of Louisville, came to -Memphis to visit Onwvenor's sister and she and (inwvenor formed attachment for each other which resulted in a matrimonial engagement. The marriage wan wet for Doc. IV), in Louisville, Ky. Beveral ladies had for Louisville to attend the wedding, and valued at had been sent to the brirlu from this place.

Monday ho received two letters from her, and ho wan weak enough to call upon her. Rho then confessed that she had loved him all tho time, in Bpito of tho objection of her relatives, and -aid. sho was desparato.

"If you marry that woman," said, "I don't know what I will do; I may commit suicido; life will not bo worth living." Monday night they met at the house of James C. Hell, a ('mutual acquaintance. G.rosvenor and hi.s Imaged her to give himthroo iluys ih which to explain tho caso to the Loiimvillo lady. ''Now or said the determined young lady. UroMVniior was by this time in a state bordering on insanity.

Ho had not. ox- jvuitod anything of kind, and though engaged to the other, still loved Miss His warmest t'riendn pleaded with him for postponement, and also pleaded with Miss Hill, but her response was: ''I have com promised myself HO far, and I can go no further. It is now or never." Two ministers refused to perform the 'femony, but Ihmlly Mr. I who knew nothing of tho facts, united thorn in matrimony. II; is hardly necessary to say that Memphis is indignant.

Grosvonor'a warmest friends condemn his action, at the same time that they Ibid palliating circumstances. Universal sympathy is expressed for the deserted girl, who creat-xl a most favorable impression hero, and. there is some talk of burning in eiligy. The Louisville laily has no father or brother, (in it is -mid, has spoilt all her money on a trousseau. (Jrosvenor is n.s- MX'iuted in business with one of the most estimable, honorable and wealthy of Memphis, John Overton, and Miss Hill's faMur is perhaps worth $500,000.

After the marriage Tuesday night vonor and wife left tho city for Nashville, their plans for tho future being entirely unknown. A handsome New Year's reception has been announced, at Mr. Hill's, but it is uncertain now as to whether it will take place or not. It is understood that the immediate relatives of the parties are simply heart-broken. A telegram from Louisville says: "(Iros- vonor will be required to make explanation in any event and may bo called to account in another way.

His has amazed the whole town, and within two hours twenty Louisville gentlemen huvo voted him a despicable cur. The young lady's friends Jo not feel that she has lost much in losing such a fellow as Uroavenor. They congratulate her on the other hand that she has escaped one KO perfidious and contemptible. The fellow need hop" for no recognition it' lie should ever come t.o Louisville again."

The tables were decorated with si.xt large bankx of flowers, composed of Catherine, Bennett, Marechal Niel and -an roses, relieved withujrikesof byadnthe, violets and maidenhair ferns. Between tho banks were rnounde of holly, and the table cover was dressed with strings of pansies and a boutonniero placed beside each gentleman's plate. After th'j menu, President Wood, of the Merchants' club, addressed the gathering and introduced Governor Robinson, who spoke for the Mayor O'Brien, who responded for the city, and Collector Kalton- stall OH tho representative of tho administration. Addresses were then made by Senators Edmun IH, Evarts, Allison, Frye, Hoar, Dawos, Tucker, Butterworth of Ohio, Findioy of Maryland and Long, Collins, Ranney, Fevering, Hayden, Allen, Ely, and Rice of Massachusetts. Collector Saltonstall expressed the hope that the presidential succeasion bill might be Hpo'wlily passed; that silver coinage might suspended, and fair, reofionable tarilf, affording all reasonable protection, bo established.

Henator Allison strongly favored a national bankruptcy law, and said that although his was a farming constituency, yet his people were, so far as the tariff is concerned, in favor of taking care of tho American laborer, rather than the foreign laborer, also tho manufacturing interests of our own country rather than tho of foreign countries. He argued the silver question at length, rather inclining to the silver side. Mr. in an eloquent speech, said thut Baltimore stood with those in opposition to silver coinage, in favor of a bankrupt law, aid to education, ship canals, coast defences, a restored navy and the re-establishments of our merchant marine. Senator Frye, of Maine, delivered a long and vigorous speech, in which he denounced tho silver dollar as a "coined lie," urged the beneficence of protective tariff, and earnestly advocated the fostering of the carrying trade with subsidies if necessary, and the application of the surplus to this purpose.

The Hon. J. Randolph Tuckfr, of Virginia, declared the only power the federal government had to tax was to raise revenue for the support of government We have free trade between the states. If this has been a blessing hero, why shouldn't it be a blessing when between all tho countries of the world? On tho silver question, he said, whether the government can make 80 (rents equal to $1 is a question in arithmetic. He thought wo should wait until the notions of the world had settled what to do on tho subject, when it would bo time for America to settle tho question for itself.

Henator Evarte took no decided grounds on any of the topics discussed, but dwelt upon the fact that great sections of the country hold diametrically opposite views on each one of them, and said: "The question is how to bring out of geographical, differonc. if you ploaso, thus hostile and arrayed against each other, a current balance of patriotic judgment, in which if no one has his own way to the full, yet he receives some solution that is consonant with tho safety and honor and the prosperity of the whole United States. Senator Edmunds spoke at length of the necessity of a national bankrupt law. VALUE OF FOREIGN COINS. Oreatort Cure on Earth for Pain."

They Are Worth in V. S. Money- Silver Depreciation. WAKHINOTON CITY, Dec. James P.

Kimball, tho director of the mint, has estimated the valuo of the standard coins of the various nations of the world to proclaimed by tho secretary of the treasury on Jan. 1, issti. The value of tho gold coins in circul -lion is fixed by comparing the thu amount of pure gold such coins with the amount in the gold dollar of the United States. In countries having the double standard, the silver coins are given the same valuation the gold coins of the same unit. The value of silver coins of countries of the silver standard is fixer! at the value of puns silver in such coins, taken at the n.o in price of silver in the London market for tho last three months of the year.

Tha mean price of silver for the last three months, compared with its price for the corresponding period in 18H1, declined from to jl.lfcvS per fine ounce, a reduction of over li cents. This gives a reduced valuation to the following coins, i that proclaimed Jan. 1, namely: Florin, of Austria, from to 157. Ic. Boliviaro, of Bolivia, from toTS.lc.
