" San 1'rAiics o CorrespJiKlent'O of tvo St. I.ouls ltcptit > llnn , SAN FitAxrisco , August 20. Oak land , justacross the ba ) ' , is a charm ing city and considered by some much preferably to San Francisco as n plnco of residence. It is much warmer and not subject to such high winds. It contains some lovely resi liences and many duo buildings , anioim the latter hotels , banks , colleges and seminaries. Across the h.iy.is Alameda , famous for its baths. 11 ere great eiowds of people Hock on Saturday afternoons .mid Sundays to witness the sea bath ing. I say Sundays advisedly , be cause the morals of this coast do not prevent them from making a holi day out of this day of rest and stretch ing its capacity to the utmost. livery- body goes soinowlioro on Sunday ; they oven go to church a fac * that might make pious Chicago shudder The boats are crowded from morning till night , and it seems like a great omivcrsal picnic. The baths are qiiito popular and much sport is indulged in by the bathers , for the benefit of the specta tors as well as their own. These in- closures are known under the high- sounding appellations of Long Branch , Terrace and Newport , the first being the largest and the latter the most patronized. Ample accommodations are made for visitors , who are duly surprised and shocked at the amazing novelties in bathing suits. Some of them are shockingly njsthotic , but they are all warranted to stand exposure to the water ; in this respect being unlike these popular ones of the east , which are not intended to got wet under any circumstances , and which are worn only for the sake of displaying the wearer's form and attitudinizing to better advantage. I imagine Mrs. Grundy must bo well satisfied with these latest freaks of fashion , since they are so inexpressibly comforting to her delicate sense of modesty , and as long as thn bathers enjoy their poses upon the sand equally as well as their plunges into the sea , I suppose the rest of the world should bo satis fied. fied.Of Of course the bathing at Alameda is not near so delightful as surf-bath ing , but withal much less dangerous , and it affords a pleasant , safe recrea tion for timid ladies and venturesome children with nervous mammas. The beach at the OlifF house would be a much finer place for bathinbut the water is a great deal too cold for even the most intrepid ot bathers to venture in. The Chinese are much employed as domestics in families in this city , and in this capacity some of them are really inraluablo. Tliey are quick , neat and very rarely need second or ders. In intelligence they far sur pass the average hired "help , " and have none of their impertinent airi ness. They make excellent cooks , and , contrary to expectation , have neither ways that are dark or tricks that are vain in this delicate matter of catering. Most of them eat with knives and forks and not with the traditionary chop-sticks. It seems odd at first to strangers to have one of these long-queued Celes tials standing behind one's chair , grin- ningand blinking those three-cornered eyes of his in the most heathenish fashion. Uut the dexterity with which ho handles the dishes and changes the courses soon makes one ' forgive his supreme ugliness and that bright smile which is child-like andi bland. One can scarcely turn a corner in San Francisco without running across half a dozen of these saffron-tinted Orientals , and they all wear the same idiotic stolidity the universal squint that makes them kindred. They are most bitterly hated by the Irish and by most of the Americans , who look upon them as the curse of this beautiful land , and these who are hero to judge for themselves can scarcely blame them. People living in the east can never realize how en tirely the Chinese have overrun this Pacific coast , and how completely they have monopolized every form of labor. The gardens , of which there are quite a number , are much patronized , though there is less beer and moro play than in St. Louis. They do not sit in the open air , as wo St. Louisans do , but enjoy their garden pleasures in a moro civilized manner. In fact , I fear the consequences wore they to attempt any such exploits as sitting in the open night air. It is _ as imprac ticable in summer as in winter. Fool ish lovers cannot sit on the fiont door stops and study astronomy as they sometimes do at homo ; neither can irate papas blame the moon for the damage inflicted on their front gates. I actually believe one can ride moro for five cents and'sco moro for twen ty-five in this city than any place I over was in. And I almost fancy that dear old sleepy St. Louis is behind the times when I see the giddy enter prise that makes this city ono of the fastest in the union ; not that I would copy San Francisco ways in all par ticulars ; but , dear mo , St. Louis is so slow , so "goody goody , " as the Hchool boys say , and BO long to catch the now ideas. Hut after all , God bless her ; she has the warmest hearts in the land the kindest hospitality , the most generous impulse's and the most loyal souls. She has a great lioait that throbs and beats for her children , and they would bo base in deed who could turn traitors. Slow and sure is her watchword , and when she has won her great place in the nation wo will bo glad that she has not been so reckless as her less care ful sisters. Long may she prosper is echoed in the hearts of those that ' love her , though they ba far away. The annual mechanics' fair has just opened and is well attended both Tiiglit and day. It is held in the pa vilion and is really quite a tine af fair. Though not so comprehensive as our own , it bears favorable com parison with many parts of it , The fruit display is not quite so line as it willbe | later , and the art exhibition is not above par ( yet with these ex ceptions the fair is all that might be expected. Considering the fact that the ex hibition continues for six weeks tlio attendance is some what extraordinary. Saturday night is the great gala night , and sometimes there is scarcely stand ing room. It is a pretty sight on one of these evenings to stand in the gallery - lory and look down upon the bril liantly illuminated hall with its vast throng of restless , surging humanity It is like a beautiful panorama changing every moment. The Hying colors , the bright dresses , the gay music and the animated faces all form a pleasing picture of brightness and beauty. Not far aw.iy is the grotlo , with its glistening rocks , its gloaming cas cades , its sparkling fountains and its nianj colored lights Through the dim recesses of the shrumVry the electric light casts a palo radiance like that of moonliaht , and its i-H'cct is very pretty. Wandering through this sylvan retreat one catches the scent of the ( lowers like the woods in .luno , and the faint perfume of the tube- rosci brings memoiies of other mo ments aa happy ai this. The hum of human voices sound ! ) far away like the distant roar of the ocean , and the faint strains of the music sound weird ami strange between the fust-spoken words of the eager sight-seers. It is a pleas ant spot in which to linger for n little while and watch the heedless crowd that comes and goes. Hoto are seen all representatives of humanity. The fashionable young lady who is au fait in all she docs , who wears white bonnets and light kids and looks most languidly tosthpt- ic. The young man who.accompanies her , with broadcloth suit , a la mode , button-hole bouquet , and who looks as unutterably utter as his fair com panion. Then there is the girl of the period who racquets at every stop , llirts with all the eligible young men within the range , and snaps her lin gers in Mrs. Grundy's face. She is delighted nt the sensation she creates , scorns chaperons and shocks the nerves of moro refined people with delightful sangfroid. She revels in the fact of , hor'oddity and considers herself , as Tlio Detroit Free Press says , "quite too toooy. " With her is the young man who sports a light cano , a pair of light kids , a laveiular tie , and who wears the air of an ethereal being who is peculiarly adapted to tlio Newport and the Saratoga. After them comes the man with the alkali Hat on the top of his head , the old lady who inwardly says prunes and prisms whenever the girl of the period Hashes across her pathway like a comet , the dutiful sleepy papas and the iusthetic mammas who trail about with subdued children. Then there is the irrepressible small boy , and wide awake people , and goodness knows how many moro. Can't wo all , know ? thorn wo see thorn everywhere that , such a crowd as this is gathered together , and it would take volumes to describe them all. There is one picture among the collection in the art gallery which is always surrounded by a crowd of enthusiastic admirers. It is a lifo sketch by J. 0. Brown , and is called tlio Dress Parade. Newsboys , boot blacks and street Arabs are gathered together under the leadership of a captain who has aspired to the dignity of a cap and a pair of boots. The headgear of the company is' in various atagea of dissolution some have hats minus rims , some hats mi nus crowns. Brooms , brushes , sticks and canes form the deadly weapons of defence , and the uniforms of the company are magnificient in patches and grease-spots. It is life-like to the last degree , nvon the little red headed hoodlum with pug nose and freckles , and the boy with his injured too done up in a rag. Each little diity face is a study within itself , with its expression of beatific happiness and its assumption of military dignity. It is a thing that might bo seen in the street any day , and yet , from its very fidelity to nature , the admirers of art turn away from the wonders of Yoscmito and the marvels of Califor nia scenery to this realistic sketch with its homely bit of street lifo. Truly "ono touch of nature makes the whole world kin. " Speaking of pictures reminds mo of a very plcassnt visit I made the other day to the studio of Mr. M. Straus , formerly well known in the cast and l ! now ono of the most noted artists in California. This genial getnleman met us at the door of his atelier IOOK- ing quite artist-like in his velvet coat and Oriental cap , with brushes and palette in hand. On a large easel stood an unfinished painting , and ho was busily engaged in transfering to the canvas the beautiful falls of Miunolmlm from a color-sketch. But on our arrival ho kindly laid asidohis brushes and paints to show us Homo of his ehtfd' ' veiitrea. Mr. Straus has made California scenery a specialty and in this direction his woiks do- oorve especial attention. Among the moro notable of his paintings nro "Founding the Mis sion , " a sccno at Cypress Grove , near Monterey , Cal. This is an historical painting representing Father Juni- pera Scrra passing through the grove with an escort of Spanish troops to found the mission ban Carlos , 1770. lie was among the first to found mis sions on the coast , This is among the strongest of Mr. Straus' paintings in drawing , perspective , sunlight and atmospheric effect , and texture of tree trunks , etc. a painting that could not fail to attract the attention of con- noissours. Then have "Devil's " wo Canyon. a painting , the same sized canvas , but totally different in character and general oral handling. In the fprmer wo have a perspective in an interior forest ; in this wo have the grandeur of the Cali fornia mountains. The spectator is supposed to stand upon the mountaintop - top looking down from range to laugo until in the far distance the eye catches a glimpse of the broad Pacific with the ships glinting in the starlight - light on its bosom , The former paint rt ing is a glorious sunset ; in this roes have the early morning fog clouds dis persing and turning their rosy faces toward the sun , thu grey veil-like mist lingering in the canyons , while in the foreground there is a beautiful variety of tint and texture of chemizollo , chapparell , rpiks and tall red woods , and a little silvery cAScade tumblinp over rock , making music as it goes. Mount Jtanierj another gorgeous sunset in Washington territory , is fully equal to the other two in artistic merit. This mountain is nearly Jo- , 000 feet high , and on its snowy breast are reflected all the rod and gold splendor of the scttina sun. Faraway the distant horizon is veiled in a pur ple mantle , while in the fore-ground meanders a tiny brooklet in which the mountain beautifully reflects its lofty crown. It is ono of the artist's finest works , but it a scene so grand , so magnificent that one must see it in nature itself to appreciate its wonder ful beauty on canvas. Space forbids mentioning other canvasses on which I would like to linger , but 1 cannot forbear mention ing some smaller ones of still-life paintint ; among them ono called "A Flutter. " It is a beautiful little paint ing of biiqht-hued humming-birds and biitteitlios , and is a marvel of rich colored and feathery texture. An other of California fruit a basket of peaches and mnshmelons is so deliciously - ciously real that it fairly makes one's mouth water , and sovvral p.iuols of lish and game would delight the upi- euro. It was a rare treat to visit this chinning little studio , and wo are in debted to Mr. Straus for much pleas ure. Though there is great wealth in Califoinuv and magnificent scenery for artists to revel in , still there suems to bo little demand for pictures - that is painting of real sterling merit. Even in the most refined , beautiful homes ono sees paintings that were evidently boui'ht by the yard and cheap chro utes. Probably the Californiaus arose so engrossed in money-getting and plcasuro-going that that they have little tlo time for cultivation of the finer arts. Bo that as it may , it seems tome mo that there is lack of interest in this direction. Monterey and Vera Cruz , about fifty miles from San Francisco , are the most noted watering-places on the coast. They have fine hotels , botches , bathing , music , dancing and the necessary adjuncts that make a fash ionable watering-place. During the months of Juno and July they are much frequented by the leaders of so ciety , who consider it au fait to bo out of the city at that time. Ono would suppose that people liv ing in such a delightfully cool place as San Francisco would be contented to remain in it during the time that loss favored mortals are sighing for cool breezes ; but the fact is that they are not. It is quite the fashion to go into the country ; in fact , thay do it to get thawed out. Imagine the absurd ity of the thing leaving a comfortable - able city homo with every comfort rnd and pleasure , and an atmosphere of delightful coolness , to roast one's self in the country. It is enough to make a St. Louisan melt in his boots , and in fact I am afraid that some such calamity will befall the St. Louisans pretty soon , if the thermometer docs not condescend to coma down from its astonishing altitudes. Oh ! how I do wish that I might waft ono little sca-breczc to the Future Great from this cool coast where they have moro than they de sire. F. I. S.

George Power , of the Arcr- mont Avenue Christian church , which \Viis nttendcd by President Garficld nud family , says the attempted aas.is- sinatiou has stimulated the movement to build a now church edifice for his congregation. A largo amount has been contributed and other large gifts have been made conditionally. "I urn afraid , " said Mr. Power to a correspondent yesterday , "that wo shall . have to make it a memorial. Wo had expected to begin on the 1st of October , and possibly before that. Of course the excitement and anxiety since the assassination has occupied our minds to an exclusion of other business , and wo can not now liogiu so soon. AVe have money enough to justify beginning on the plans we had proposed as the best. " "Tlio president has always boon an active and prominent member of your church , I believe ? " "Yes " said the "for , pastor , many years. Ho is , of course , well known throughout the country to our people , and is loved as well as admired , es pecially 'in these communities in which he lias been chielly brought into per sonal contact. Tlie members of our chuich fellowship have , of course , fol lowed his prosperous career wi intercut , because lie has always iden tified himself with us In the early , feeble days of the church in this din- trict ho was a very iicMvo member. They used to meet in a room in the City Hall , before they had the means to get a separate building of their own , and in those days the President took an active part in the services ' , le.'iding the meeting. About ten j-ears ago the congregation felt able to call a pastor , and since that time General Garfield has been ono of the congregation , and always n prominent itd and zealous member. His wife and mother ate members of our denomin ation , and the children went to our Sunday school until the family broke up house keeping hero last full. ' 0y ( The absent members of the family are not coming on to Washington , I believe ? " "No ; the president's mother is rather too fcoolo to undertake tlio journey , and the children are too small to appreciate their loss. Airs. Gurfield prefers that they should re collect the While HOIIBO as a happy ' homo. I rocolioct that the president's mother said at the time of the in auguration , when I was congratulat 1t ing heron the great honors which had come to her son , "Yes , it is too good ; I am afraid something ' will happen. " T have often recalled that remark , us trouble after trouble cainu upon the family. First , the president's mother herself , you will remember , fell sick , Then came Mm , Garfiold's sickness , and now , last of nil , this violent and terrible injury of the president himself , "My , congregation , " Mr. Power continued , "hnvo naturally taken the deepest interest in the family. I read them the bullutius every Sunday and explain thorn us well M Icnii.'bo- auiso they expect that 1 c , i , perhaps , toll them something comforting c\ery week.
