Grand Wedding at St. Stephen's Catholic Church. The marriage of Seiior M. Lopez Roberts, the Roman Spanish Minister Resident to this country, to Miss Angeliua ‘erry, the charming and highly accomplished niece of Mr. Ponvert, a@ well-known Spanish merchant of this city, which has for some time past been the all-absorbing topio of conversation among the aristocratic circles of both New Yerk and Washington cittes, took place Jast evening in St. Stephen’s Roman Catholic chureh, ‘Twenty-eighth street, near Third avenue. Long before the hour RemaBA Ved, for the solemniz: toa of the ceremony—hall-past seven o’clock— Twenty-cighth street, from Lexington to Third avenue, Was crowded with carriages, and others were arriving at every moment, 80 that ere long to effect a passage of the thoronghfare Was an utter impossibility. add more, if posst~ bie, to the discoinfort of the invited guests, a crowd of some five or six hundred ill-bred persons gathered about tie door and the sidewalk upon either side of tue street and stared every gentleman and lady who eutered the church well nigh out of countenance. But within things were very diiter- ‘The haudsome and spactous edifice was well filled and most magnificently illuminated, and it is questionable if ever before there was gathered within its walls so much of aristocracy, wealth, fashion and beauty as upon this occasion, Of the aristocracy of both this city and Washington ft were jar easier to say who were not there than who were, The Diplematic Corps was particularly well repre- sented, there being present their excellencies the Russian Min'ster, the Austrian Minister, the French Minister, the Italian Minister, the Prussian Minister and the English Minister, together with their various attachés, &c. As is almost tnvariably the case the “high contracting parties’ were somewhat late In arriving, and consequently the assemblage became a littie Impatient. Every few moments a rustling of silk or satin would be neard at the door, | when immediately all eyes would be bent in that direction eager to catch the first glimpse of the bride. In “a few moments some six or eight couple, the Jadies dressed in @ most tastelul and recherché manner, advanced up the main aisle to tie altar rails, near whitch they took seats. shortly alterwards Se‘ior Roberts, support- ing upon his arm an elderly lady, who advanced up the aisie, and 2 few minutes later the lovely bride, arrayed in pure white grenadine, with fall train, and leaning upon the arm of her venerable uncle, Mr, Ponvert, was seen to enter the door, when, in an instant, nearly the entire audience rose to their feet and took agood look at her as she passed to the altar, where she was at once joined by Mr. Roberts, and without further delay the ceremony was pro- ceeded with by the Rey. Dr, McGlynn, pastor of St. Stephen's, assisted by the associate clergy of the church, some six or eight In number. Immediately upon the conclusion of the so.emni- zation of the marriage rites the happy couple pro- ceeded to the residence of the bride’s uncle, where tue congratulauons of a few select friends were re- ceived, and ata late hour in the evening they started upon an extended bridal tour.

A NEW JERSEY MYSTERY, Siugular Affair in Paterson—A Young Man Said to be Killed by a Fall uad a Mock Inquest Meld. The particniars of a very singular case have just come to light in Paterson. A short dis ance above that city is the high trestie- work bridge over the Passale river of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Ratlway. This bridge is sixty or seventy feet high, and it 1s considered a feat of daring by young men and fool- ish girls to foot it across. An old man, named George McKeon, 13 the keeper of this bridge and mukes this statement:— On November 16 six well dressed young men, evi- dently farmers’ sons, in a state of intoxtcation, came up, and, in spite of his oppoattion and resist ance, started to walk across in fulfilment of a wager. One of the foolliardy young men fell through the bridge, and, although not instantly killed, was badly injured, All the others were 80 drunk as scarcely to be able to lift thelr wounded colpanion tate the wagon in which they drove off. They stated they belouged to Whippang, Morris county, and that the injured man lived at 68 or 78 Kast Broadway, New Yorg. ‘rhe next day the bridge keeper was summoned to aticnd an inquest on the man who had fallen through the bridge, his imjuries having proved fatal. The man who bore the summons pretended to be an ollicer from Spring Valley, Rockland coun- ty, N. ¥., where he suid the inquest was being held, McKeon went there with the oficcr, and was called upon to testify before an inquest, which he believes was, to use Lis Own words, @ “mock ar- rangement.” Everybody present seemed drunk, and the proniing: “Justice” contradicted McKeen’s testimony that the young men were drunk when they came upon the bridge. After the “inquest” the bridge-keeper was told he could get home the best he could, and was obliged to walk back, a distance of about twelve intles. ‘AlcKeon states that at the inquest the deceased was placed in a coffin, on which was @ plate bearing the tmscription “William Corcetlly (or Connolly), aged 19 years, 6 mouths and 16 days.”” ‘This is the statement of George McKeon, the bridge keeper, as yesterday related to Coroner But- terworth, of Patsrson. It may serve to clear up a mystery if the tacts as stated be true. THE TERRIFIC EXPLOSION IN BUFFALO. A Dist llery Suattered to Fragments-One Man Killed and Four Others Injured, Shortly after ten o'clock Saturday morning a ter- rifle explosion took piace in the new distillery of Messrs. H. F. Briggs & Co., situated on the south side ot Carroll street, below Wasnington. ‘The build- ing, a new three story brick, was shat tered as if smitten with a hundred thunder- bolts aud im an instant prosentea the Sppearance: of a@ complete wreck. The ex- plosion was soon followed by a fire among the ruins, which added to the norrors of the scene, for it was Known that several men were in the building at the time of the disuster. Tie fre department were promptly on the greund and subdned the flames, and then began the earnest work of removing the debris with @ view to the saving of life. ‘he sequel showed that this effort was vain, for all the persons in the building had got out in one shape or another, Frank Leese, the foreman, was discovered by Mr, Briggs in the lot fa the rear of the building, with nis clothing on ire from head to foot, and trying to crawl, but powerless to help himself in any way. ‘The clothes were promptly dragged trom his body aud the torturing fires extinguished in the mud in which he was found, The sufferer was promptly removed to a saloon on Exchange street, where he was attendea by Dis. Miner and Pheips, who, upon examination, found that the bedy was terribly burned over its entire surface. Chleroforin was administered and all that could be done was done to alieviate his sufferings, He was subse- quently conveyed to the General Hospital, where he dicd at five o’cleck the same atternoon. He was about twenty-fve ye: old, unmarried and came here frem Madison, Wisconsin. He is spoken of as an estimable and competent young man, and fortanately he leaves no wife to mourn his untimely taking off. He was on the trst floor at the time of the explosion, but how he reached the spot where he was found is a parilal mystery, altheugh it 1s not improbable he was car- ried there by the force ef the explosion, His brother, Joseph Leese, wio was engaged as a helper, escaped uninjured, Mr. Lyman K, Knapp was tn the basement in front of the boiler. In making his escape he was considerably but not merions iy burned about the head and iace, and was slighly injured by the falling brick. R. R. Warren, who lives on Beak street, had en- tered the building shortly before the explosion, in- quiring for work, He was on his way out and wiihin a few feet of the doorway when the firat flash of the fire canght his cye. Alarmed, he started onthe keen run, but the explosion was quicker than he and lifted him mto Carroll street quicker than he ever travelled by lightning express, He was found there entirely unconscious aud badly burned on the neck, face and hands. Dr, Edwin i. Barnes attended to his hurt and anticipates no fatal con- sequences, Mr. William Eels, foreman of the establishment of Messrs. Shaw & Kennedy, was engaged, with three ether coppersmiths from the same estabitsh- ment, on some Raton of the distilling apparatus, He was somewhat injured about the hands, but his companions escaped without being hurt. Henry Kalbfeish, a carpenter, was cut over the eye, and escaped from tie second story, with Joseph Leese, by means of a ladder. ‘The driver of a team belonging to Mr. Laycock, of Black Rock, had halted his wagon, which was loadea with lath, under ene of the walls of the building, while he went to the store of Briggs & on ange sirect.

On tue secoad floor was a rew of elgliteen recti- flers, placed along the walls opposite to that against which the tubs on the third floor were placed, in or- der to equalize the strgin on the floors and timbers: Preparations were being made for the tntreduc- tion of jiity of these rectifiers and the butlding was calcalated to sustain their weight under all circum- stances, 80 that the theory advanced upon the street that the Noor was overburdened and gave way so aa a pressure upon tue still below cannot be sustain “on the lower floor were eight receivers, some of them partially filled, togetuer with the still and en- Ine, ‘The stili was flied with fifty barrels of whis- ey, twenty degrees below proof, and it is thought that the accident originated witn it, or with the “column,” but at present there cau be no decision rrived at as to the exact cause, i ‘Tne loss on the property of Brigg? & Co. has not been estimated.

The number of elegant new buildings that have recently been completed and which are in process Of erection in the lower part of the city, which not afew were inclined to believe was “going to the wall,” exceeds those at any other perlod for many years past. Indeed, the impression so univer- sal that business was fast leaving the lower for the upper wards 1s true only 80 far as applied to retail and more particularly ary goods business. Wall street remains the great money centre, Broad street the undisputed home of speculation, and the contiguous nelghbortiood the chosen dwelling pince of power and commercial enterprise. ‘he Commissioners of Parks and Piaces are also doing good work in thels commendable im- provements at the Battery, (he City Mall Park and other localities, making BEAUTIVUL GARDENS AND GREEN LAWNS of places that fora long time have been a byword and offence to good taste. Merchant princes them- selves are alive to the importance of the work, and there is to be seen in the stately palaces of insurance companies and banks in the vicinity of Wall street perhaps the best evidence of this fact. Nor ts it to companies alone that the city Is indebted for such adornment. Private firms are rivalling each other in the construction ef beautiiul buildings, so that a vigoreus and successful effort is being made toretain @ certain class ef business in the lower part of the city. The magnificent iron struc- ture at the northeast corner of William and Cedar streets 18 rearing its colossal preporuons and bears the name of the “Kemp But ing. and when com- pleted will probably be one of the most substantial and elegant edifices in the city. Its advantageous Position, being in close proximity to all the sur- rounding puolic institutions with which commerce 43 associated, will doubtless make it one of the land- marks of the metropolis. Workmen were busily en- paged yesterday roofing the concern, and about the eginning of January is the anticipated time of completion. The floors are, It 18 sald, to be fitted suits of offices with all the modern imprevements, and will be occupied by bankers, steamship, rail- road, insurance companies and law tirms, Otner buildings of similar construction are also talked of being crected in the vicinity, so that in a few years the lower part of the city may win back its uate as the great Riaito of the metropolis, ANOTHER DRY GOODS PALACE. Thousands of fashionably attired ladies thronzed the neighborhood of Broadway and Twenticth street yesterday on their way to or jrom a visit to Lord & Taylor's new establishment, which was thrown open to the public for the first time. The firm of Lord & Taylor was formed in 1833 and commenced business in Catharine street. Tu 1855 they opened at the corner of Grand aud For- syth streets, In 1860 the store at the corner of Grand street and neat Fa Was first occupied, and will hereafter be for whole fale purposes, ‘The success of the firm has been great, and its popularity with metropolitan and provincial purchasers widespread and long steadily increasing, — It 18, therefore, not boo poe that tn a few years it should have made such rapid strides as 13 evidenced bv this the latest architectural ornement to upper Broadway. The building 18 of tron, and 1s flve stories high; the ground floor is entered through a 1 {ty arch doorway; the vestibule is eighteen feet high, twen- ty-live feet long and twelve feet wie, and hand- semely paved with variegated marbie tile: the inside of the store is finished in blac walnut and ash, the decorations rich aud tastily executed. Indeed, the architectural beauty {s a grand compliment to American art in this science. Lach floor 1s lighted py nmeteen costly gilt bronze chandeliers, cach one naving eight burners. Ev species of goods usually found in such establishments is in abundance, and the polite Superintendent, Mr. J. W. Warrin, was taxed to the utinost showing the visitors through the building and expatiating on the completeness of the detalls, THE LAE FIRE AT TRENTON, Another Victim-Condition of the Boy Healy— A Terrible Warning to Young Vasabonds. Yesterday, while some workmen were employed removing the debris of the shed at Specler’s pottery factory in Trenton, where the fire occurred on Sun- day morning, they found the charred body of a youth, apparently about fifteen years of age, who had perished in the tire. The boay was burned so as to be perfectly unrecogniz- able. The left leg was burned completely away, andthe thigh bone, charred and blackened, pro- traded from the thigh like @ gnailed stump. The body presented a ghastly spectacle, and was given into the charge of the Coroner. A boy, named Fagan, is missii from the clty, and as he was seen at the limekiln, which adjacent to the pottery, late on Saturday night it, is supposed that he was the victim whose peay as been discovered. Healy, the youth so ly uurhed, was alive yesterday morning, put the flesh jlerally falling from his bones. He is momentarily expected to die. Henry Clark, who was also badly burned, will recover, ‘There ts a gang of young vagabonds who congre- gate every night in barns, around hmekilns and on the roofs of houses. These lead lives of laziness and are ready for any crime that offers inducements in the shape of plunder. They have been the cause of this fire, and dearly have three of ther number paid for it. The State Keform School ts crowded with vagabonds of this class, and tae sooncr the school- ships, so long talked of, are prepared, the better for every pork especially the uniertunate youths them- selves. There 1s not, perhaps, in the entire State of New Jersey another city containing so large a num- ber of vagrants as Trenton. TELEGRAPHIC NEWS ITEMS. Charles E.

The Free Traders tn Strong Force and Social Couverse at Belmonico’ The High Tariff Denounced and Abolition Demanded—Speeches of R. B. Min. turn, W. C. Bryant, Mahlon Sands, and David A. Wells. A banquet, under the ausploes of the Free Trade League, was given last evening at Delmonico’s, It was altogether a splendid affair, being marxed throughout by elegance, enthusiasm, and a fine re- Preseniation of the commercial community at large, Over two hundred persons sat down, Mr. Robert B. Minturn presided, and seated in his vicinity were:— David A, Wells, John T. Agnew, W, 0, Bryant, 1. V. Poor, Horace White, General Brinkornom, F. 8. Jaftray, David Dudley Field, Stewart Brown, R. B. Roosevelt, 8. 8. Cox, F. A. P. Barnard, J. W. Gerard, K. L, Winthrop, 8. Ward, W. M. Grosvenor, Augustus Scuell. The members of the League proacnt were Alfred Pell, C. H. Marshall, RB, Minturn, Mahlon Sands, Howard Potter, G. 0. Ward, A. G. Stokes, U. Moran, A, L, Earie, Thomas Holland, Simon Sterne. After dinner the chairman referred at some length to the cause of free trade, and then proceeded to point out the great fallacy of the high tari” which the government was enforcing. He dilated upon the ruinous effects which had already mar«ed its imposition and commented severely upon the tyran- nical oppression which its existence brought upon the poor generally, But notwithstaud- ing the evils of the past there were bright hopes for the future. The time had now arrived when the so-called protectorate system should come toanend. The approaching Congress, he trusted, would legislate in such a manner as to afford relict from the crushing influences of protec- \lon. Party considerations must be set aside when the commercial tnteresis of the county were at stake, The hour of triumph was at hand. 1 speaker concluded by a euiogistic reference to} \. ©, Beyaut, Whow he called upon to respond to the toast, “The Cause of Free Trade.” Mi. BRYANT said that the toast referred ‘o needed no apology of his, 1b Was the cause of the great mass ot mankind, the cause of the few as well as of the many; of those who buy and those who sell, of tose who produce and those who consume. It contempiated the advantage of tie manufacture. Mf he only knew it, ag much 43 of those who par chase his wares.

WELLS, In replying to the toast, ob- served that while he thanked the ussemblage very much he would hardly be enabled to respond at Jengih—not ihat he was not in sympathy with the many kindly faces he saw around him, not virongh hopes o1 future political preferment, but simply be- cause he was engaged in a work of importance greater than any he had ever attempted—tne revi- sion of the tax system of the State of New York, The thing was complicated; it was ineffectual in its execution, and he was almost inciined to re- turn his commission to the Governor of the State. But as he did not intend to take that course tie would now endeavor to do what some people did camp Meetings, and that was to give the audience some of his past experience. Mr. Wells then went on to narrate at some length the various incidents connected with the revenue system of the country for many years past, He alluded especially to THE TAX ON WHISKEY Commissioner Wells to re- and oe numerous vicissitudes through which that tax had passed. After giving a history of the varl- ous revenue commissions he adverted to the expe. riences wiuch he had derived from his visit to Europe. In spite of all Ms teaching, in spite of his experience, lie was not prepared to avow him- self an unmitigated and unrestricted free trader, Yet he would not lend menéy to a stranger without scourity. He beileved with the poct, that if all racn were of one mind, and that good, there would be no need of jails; yet he was not prepared to siut up jalia, He’ was fully ready to admts and ace knowledge THR BENBYIT OF AN UNRESTRICTED COMMERCIAL interest, and looked forward to the day when such @ state of things would be brought about. Yet there were many things which led him to believe that the maintenance of a tari was Imperative and desirable. He was sausfied in regard to the subject of taxation that the people preferred an indirect tax to any other, and world rather pay a few dollars indirectly than other. wise. But after the question of #lavery he knew of no other that could be Imposed so iniquitous, eo vile and socaleulated to desiroy the com:uerce of the conntry as the tariff! as it stood to-day. Whatever might be nis opinion or the opinions of others seemed to him thos were not the questions at ie at the present time. ‘The questions immediately at issue were the ABUSES UNDER THE NAME OF PROTECTION which liad been embodied into law and forced upon the American people.
