The pleasant hospitable atmosphere of the residence on Highland terrac2 of the late Justice Miller of the Supreme Bench, and now the home of his widow, was re- vived last night when Mrs. Miller welcomed th? guests invited to the marriage cere- mony of her granddaughter, Miss Lucy Corkhiil, to Mr. Coker Fifield Clarkson. The drawing rooms and dining room were elab- orately decorated with spring flowers, the mantels being banked with vases filled with roses, many of the bouquets being sent the bride. The ceremony took place in front of @ large square mirror near the archway in the drawing room. A bust of Justice Miller in its accustomed place was surrounded by beautiful flowers, the vines from which reached up and bordered the mirror in a frame of clematis and purple and white lacs. The two younger brothers of the groom, Messrs. Harold and Grosvenor Clarkson, preced2d the couple to the pres- ence of the officiating minister, Bishop Hurst. The handsome young couple fuced the assemblage during the ceremony. The bride never Icoked to better advantage than in her wedding dress, which was of heavy white brocaded satin, the low-necked batice having a deep bertha of duchess lace con- fined by a string of large p2xrls, which hung to the waist line. A spray of white lilacs fastened ner tuile veil, which fell back from her face. After the ceremony supper was served and about 11 o’clock Mr. and Mrs. Clarkson loft for the north and will spend the next ten days at the seaside. They will reside permanently in New York city. Mrs. Miller wore a rich black satin dress and Mrs. Clarkson was in brocaded white satin with diamond and pearl ornaments. Gen. Ciarkson was also present.

In anticipation of the co-operation of the insurgents in Cuba, the ordnance officers of the army have been instructed to procure for immediate shipment about 50,000 rifies, mostly Krag-Jorgensous, with a corre- ; Sponding quantity of ammunition. These supplies are intended for the use of the in- surgent army, and arrangements are now being made for their shipment to Cuba. The quartermaster’s department of the army has been instructed to supply trans- portation for 5,000 men from Key West to Cuba, together with the arms and ammu- nition intended for the Cubans. The force referred to will undoubtedly ecnstitute the advance army of invasion, and will probably be landed at a point near Matanzas. The fact that Gen. Shafter, who came to Washington on a summons from the Secretary, was in conference with the members of the naval strategic board, as well as with Gen. Miles end the Secre- tary of War, is accepted to mean that this officer will have command of the first mili- tary expedition to Cuba. The officials of the department are par- ticularly reticent with regard to this pro- posed military movement, and refuse posi- tively to give any details concerning it. It is believed, however, that the army will be organized and sent to the island as soon as the arrangements now in progress to that end have been perfected, which will prob- ably be within the next two or three weeks. In case Gen. Miles does not take the field, it is probable that the active com- mand of the army will devolve upon Major General Merritt, commanding the depart- ment of the east, who is the second ranking officer, and who is especially desirous of engaging in active military operations. —_2-____— Classification of,Letters Patent.
