A Big Man. Im trwvr (*V>vrlaa4 Hi* O”" Mhin. Evening News: 11m editor of the Gre«nvill« News liom » Imcl b»wl on almost every queetion of ißi]«>rtnncc that comes up. Him view* on the manner in which I’reri'lent (hvelarid ha* con<lurf«xl hi» little love affair are in cotMonnnce w ith those of the Even ing News. and ns aucli wc reproduce them. Os course the editor* who for reason of their own Imfe Grover Ulevelsnil could not allow him to he married without lining the occasion of hin wedding for foolmh and malignant aannultn against him. Tothis time it in charged (1) that having the wedding at. the White Houae inntxrvl of the bride a homo waa a violation of entablinlied cuntoni and propriety; (2) that neglect to invite the diplomatic corp* waa an insult to the co nines lepiem iitcl at Washington and a breech of interim tional •tlnpietlo; (3) that the failure to invito the former friend* of the bride and groom and the leader* of Washington society wan bad manner* and indicative of a haughty anil aristocratic spirit All these criticisms are bawd on the assumption that Mina Folsom waa married to the United Staten The truth in, her husband is Grover Clove land, a citizen who is now performing certain duties in response to the call of his fellow citizens and who will cease to perform those duties at the eud of two or six years from now and again liecome a private citizen. His SWire* i»i.* of a wife and the manner, time and place .of his marriage are hin own jiersoncl business with which the country han no more to do than with the condition of Ins account in bank. Hs owes just the respect to the morals, opinions and feelings of others due any other citizen. In the first place Miss Folsom did not leave her home to go to Washing ton to be m irried. She had just come from a long tour in Europe, ami for all wo know who had no home she can call her own. However that may he, she is not tliu first young lady forced by circumstances to lie wedded away from her home, and surely any American woman who has the op portunity might ba properly and naturally ambitious to be the first to lie married to a President in the ex •ecutive mansion. Such an event gives her a distinctive ami enduring place in the history of the country Suppose that invitations hud been vxtendod beyond the member* of the babinet and into the ranks of Washing ton society and the friends of the bride and groom. Where could the line have been drawn ? What power Could have pi evented the occasion from being degraded by a crushing, curious, perspiring mob of well dressed and uncomfortable people ? Was not ths simple, perfectly managed and dignified ceremony with out crowding, discomfort or excitement, the best that ingenuity ami g<s>d taste eeuld have devised, alike democratic and refined ? Is not the announced determination to have public recep tions al which the diplomats will be formally received and mtioduced to the lady of the White II ouse more in accord with the spirit of our insti tutions than an attempt to make the •redding a diplomatic event would bays been? It is interesting to consider these things and understand the foolishness, recklessness and vulgarity of the aneiuitsi of the President and his policy and methods Kick Hoiaim, a .. imtimi ,»f opprv*.i.'ii end <lulln<«a in thr Ix a.l. an verv coiuiiioidy nnslvivsl by ludigvalKHi. morlud dcwpindi'iici Imldkllty and <»v< r ai iwliiru. -« »l the n< nea may.* in a uiajonti ul Is iracvd 1.. the Stuiic ceuar I»r.

Nashville American, of Sunday The Rev J A, Munday, of Georgia* an evangd'ist of note will preach in the First Baptist Church in this city at 11 a. m, 4 p. m and Bp. m to day.

Two gray haired sinners, with both of whom the preacher luul previously played poker, profc-sxil conversion ami wept bitterly at mi nioi v of their errors. Mi Munday levs a history, a bona fide history, such as that of Dixie Williams, more sensational than Dixie's, far more graphic than that of Jones, for neither of these men ever juggled in a circus or occupied the noinlesciipt position of a “hiijm*. Both of these things Mr Munday has done, and he acted his palt like a thoroughbred He easily discarded the straight and narrow road, ami at the ti nder age of 17 could stand pat on a pair of deuces with the best of ! tin in, and was able to make a noble living out of the sports of Tonnes- , see s capital city, whither he had ■ drifted He went to Isdianon in 1874 : with Wooten and Andrews' circus, i ami there left the mammoth combinn- | tion because the manager did not pay him.
