A Visit ito the Widow's Homo Ole ography , Speeches nnd Carres- clonco of the liiUo Prosldont. ClovcUnd Correspondence of K. Y. Tribune. The traveler on the Lake Shore llmlrond is pretty sure to know when the train is approaching Mentor station by a movement among the passengers , who bofein to Jook earnestly from the windows on the southern side of the car , and whoso faces take on ou expression of serious interest , Not much can bo soon of the Garfield farm as the train passes swiftly by , but the eagerness to get a gliinpso of the homo of the martyred 1'rosident shows that hero in Northern Ohio at least his memory ia not grow ing dim in the hearts ot the people. There on the ridge is the rod-roofed house with its group of farm-build ings. If Jou know the place , you car oven identify the window of the little library where ho wrote the letter no copting the Chicago nomination. I'licso are the meadows where in old timoa before there WAS nny thought of tlio high honor of the presidency ho used to like to swing a soy the ana BOO how much of the strength of his boy hood days , when ho worked in th liatiuld , still remained. 1'liuru ts tuu young oichurd ho pluntuoi-unit ilio luiio whom ho often \\alkud t nunsut In u nnmutit the icuiio yuiiuhc-f , bu the thougtita and mumotiua u oil.a uj : rumuui , and thu tuik of iJiu | a noil' ' HOIS is about the late prus ulnae , hi OIILO happy homo and hia cmol iato until the train rolls into uio big smoky depot in Cleveland , and tlioy soparato. Iloro in Cleveland you are reminded od of President Garliold at almost every stop. His picture gazes nt you from shop windows audfrom the walli of oflicea and parlors wherever you go Many of the shops display photo graphs of all the members of his fund ly , and some have relics to sell for the benefit of the Monument Fund , mad from the catafalque 'Used , ut his funor al. With all these reminders con stantly before your eyes , the tragedy of last year seems to have ended only yesterday , and the sombre , smoky at mosphere of iho city appears like a lilting sign of universal mourning. The now homo of the boreavoa fain ily chosen by Airs. Uurfiuld , one may well suppose , because of a desire to bi near the tomb of thu President is a modest little wooden house , whicli looks all the more unpretentious bp cause of the proximity of many big mansions such as the rich Cloyplando delights in. It stands on Euclid-avo. . well out toward the suburbs , and about midway between the business end of this famous street and its coun try terminus at Lake View Comotory. With its broad lawa and cosy rooms it is u cheerful , homo-liKo place. . Probably the Garfiplds will live then for soiiiu years , until thu education o the younger children is well advanced The Mentor farm will bo kept , however over , as the homestead , and much o the time of the summer season will bo spent there. So many sacred memo ries cluster around it that they wil" never let it go into the hands of a trail gers. The Washington house , whore they lived for ten years during the sessions of Congress , will be sold in accordance with the purpose Oonora Gariield formed when hu was elected. Mrs. Gariield has no desire over to live in Washington again. The house ought to find a purchaser who wil value it above its cost as so much olig iblo real 'estate. Most of the bes work of Garfiold'a life was done in the study on the second floor tha Jooks out on I-st. His Ohio homt was a place of rest ; but in the Wash Ington house ho'worked incessantly , The years ho spent there were tin most truitful of his career in intolloo growth and political success. The two older Garliold boys are in their first year'at Williams Cullogo. Harry means to bo lawyer , and before the father died had with his instruo < tiou gene a loug way in Blackstone , Joints has a liking for an active busi ness career. Their avocations wil not bu determined , however , until tboy are .graduated. In whatever occupa tion they may OJigago , their mother desires that they live in Qhi9 and become - como identified with thuir father' ' state. The two younger boys and the daughter MoJlio attend school in Cleveland , and with their mother and grandmother form the family .circle. There are many visitors to the house of mounting in Euclid-avo. , but the circle of friends naturally tends to narrow itself moro and .more to those who were known well in the yoacs be fore General Gariield 'reached the height of power and honor made everybody eager to bo counted among is intimate acquaintances. Tinio lias [ lot yet brought consolation to the two stricken women upon whom the blow of the president's assassination foil with greatest force. The cruel trage dy of last summer and fall is still too near for thorn to forgot it for a mo ment. Sympathetic trionds try to t-ilk' ' on other subjects , but the con versation .always drifts back to the great grief which 's never absent from the hearts of the wife and mother. Perhaps it is moro considerate in the visitors to talk on the one topic which occupies their minds than to endeavor to bring up aubjocts in which they feel little in tores t. All who have borne heavy torrow know that silence makd its torture moro intonsoand that there ia aomo relief when "out of the fullnosa of the hourt the mouth apeak- cth. " Mrs. Garliold is taking an actiro part in the preparation of a work con taining a ( election from the speeches , lectures and other public addresses of the late president. The plan is to print in pno or two volumes inch of his oratorical efforts as have a perma nent intftrost and nlmw bi'iit his rifiwvr aucl r i. u uo a niultmuan uiitl ouitular. The labor of compilation is being per formed by President Hinsdaie , of Hiram College , with Mrs , Gar field's council and assistance. A good deaj of ( menial matter will go into the book : the form of notitf and intro ductory urticlos explaining the cir cumstances under which the speeches were delivered , and the history and attitude of the public question at to which they rolatw. Nothing has yet boon decided about the authorized biography. Mrs. Garfield wisely thinks there should bo no haste to publish the book , and that it can wait until the hurriedly written lines manufactured - ; ufactured for campaign purposes ami njrablbhod after Ida death hare had their run and the public it ready to new Ju career in a true historical light. No lolection of ft biographe hfts boon nmd6. No do\ibl tlio tAi will bo confldod to some ono whos place in literature is alroidy won , am who will not took the position for the reputation it will bring. After the biography appears , bu perhaps not until many years elapse , thcro will probably bo published un. dor Mrs. GarCeld'a supervision olio 01 two volumes nmdo up of selection' from the martyred president's corros donco. In the letters which friend ; can furnish .and in the press copici tthicii ho preserved of much of his correspondence with public men , ex ists a mine of valuable material , These loiters cover the entire period of the Wartho Reconstruction epoch , thocontestovor the National Fin.incp8 ; and the more recent events in politic : and legislation , and abound in frank , manly , vigorous opinions and critt. cisms. Well digested , they would form n conscientious record of General Gwrfiold's life and thought from 1800 to 1880 , writUm by his own hand. So constant was his habit of writin * to a few intimate friends with free dom and fullness of his experiences , hii readings in literature , science and pclitical economy , his work in legislation tion and in the Hold of National poll tics , and his viens of public men and UK nan res , that an autobiography could altnoH * bo inado up from hi * lit tors.

It was ,111 that yea that the people began to fool like in dulging their tastes moro freoly. Tin figures of the treasury bureau inli cato that the "ilush" times are stil' ' with us , of which , perhaps , there i no bettor sign than the purchase o precious stones. In 1879 the impor tation of diamonds and other gem amounted to $4,727,000 , in 1880 ti $8,083,000 , i\nd last yoarj to § 8,727 , 000. Thu importation of gems is i very good commercial barometer , When the "times" prosi hard upon the people th importation is small , but with a risin commercial barometer the dealers i this class of luxuries begin to buj moro freely in anticipation of a sur demand for their costly wares. Since 1879 W < > have moro than doubled oui purchase of foreign -fancy goods , thi riguros being $4,730,000 against ? 9 , 018,000 last year. In musical instru incuts , a trade which quickly "senses' any change in the foolinga o the people who have tastes tc gratify , the imports have doubled , rising from $702,000 'two years ago , to 81,489,000 last year. In silk goods we are buying a third moro than in 1879 , the figures for last year being § 32,000,000 , a dochno'o $2,000,000 from the imports for 1880 but Una decline ia no' indication o diminished" purchasing power among the people ; it may bo ascribed to over stocking tha your before , and to changes in the fashions. The varia tion is , however , so slight as to scarce ly call for explanation. Of silk hosiery , certainly a luxury , pure and simple we are ipiportiiig $424,000 worth. O foreign jewelry wo never buy heavily , owing to the duties , and especially U Ilio great skill of our homo manufaotur era. Our bill in this particular can b < covered by § 450,000 for 1881. 0 , glove * , principally kid , wo continue to buy nearly 64,000,000 wor h yearly but in hard tircos people curtail their purchases of gloves very quickly. As ith diamonds , BO with paintings and statuary : the increased purchase of those articles is a sure indication 01 thu "llushnoss" of ( ho national pocket. In ' 79 wo bought of those workH of ai-t $1,008,000 , , end last year $2,420 , worth. Foreign books and ongruy ingu make an item of over § 3,000,000 in our imports , but two years ago our book buyers and print coljootpra were far less lavish of their iperujy. Tlio wine and spirit trade is importing nearly $3,000,000 worth moro of these luxuries than during thu last panic year ; the figures for 1881 are § 9,573,000. The development of the brewing business in the United States r < ndorod it necessary to buy jnoro than $831,000 worth of Bosa' "bittors" and of Gorman lager last year. Of foreign tobacco and cigars ( mostly Cuban ) we bought in 1881 to the value of $7,700.000. an increase of about $2,000,000 Binco 1879. Our importation of foreign watches * tlmnka to the excellence and , indeed , auperiority , of Ameri can machine made watches ia confined mainly to the yory costly English and European makes , 'and also to the very cheapest Swiss grades for the supply iof auction shops and the swindling of the simple. JJut even in these goods our imports are about double what they wore in 1&70 thn Jimru * for 18S1 being $ ? 318 QOO Uf toreign leather goods , ote. , wo. nro purchasing at the rate of somothir.K over $1,000,000 a year. Of furs and dressed skins wo imported last year $5,050,000 worth , as against some $3,000,000 in 1870. Our importa of foreign glassware have increased from about $1,000.000 in ' 79 to $2,749,000 last year , and this does not include our purchase pf foreign mirrors , which , ill ' 81 , amounted to $822,000. Our foreign button bill shows that the dorncstie industry is not yet up to the demands of taste and fashion. Buttons to the value of $3,780.000 zaino in last year , In perfumery and osmoUcs a little money would seem to have KDI1 ° a fe'roat way , { f wo believe - liovo the French labels on the prepara tions on the druggist * ' counter * . ) Iho bill for 1881 was only $475.000 ; but , M has been hinted , our manufacturers have Rrown very expert - port in the preparation of thcso wares. The enroot industry in this country has ronciie I "ft l > ijh ; grade of perfec tion , nnd in i hi * toaaon may bo ascribed the fnc thnt $812,000 will cover the purchase of foreign carpets last year. French stationery , as sold in the shops , 11 pretty sure to have been made in Western .Massachusetts , for our imports of foreign writing paper - per in 1381 only amounted to § 17,000 Inoolon dr. ss goods our fnrugn purchase fell from § UC07,000 to 813,765,000 in 1831. In foreign fruits thcri < r : it in increased impor tation , the MI in K bi-ing $15,015,000 as against § 13,401 000 in 1880 The "gilded youth" ami returning tourist pitroniKod the foreign tailor and dressmaker to a smaller extent in 1SS1 than in 1880 , the figures being § 740,000 against § 898,000 , rospoe- tuelj' . The fact in , that the foreign tailor docs tint suit the American taste , except in the case of ovor-Kn- lish young swells. There is a tack of style in Englith tailoring , and thu pcruli.ir cut of the garments is apt to render the wearer ridiculous to the ordinary American citizen.

It will bo news to inont people that ordinhry cas will pass through stone work , ana that the human breath can bo sent through n brick wall as strong , ly as to deflect a candle ou thu other side. At the Now York Academy of Sciences lately Prof. Doromus demon strated the truth of these things. 11 o had bcforo him a piece of sandstone , rectangular , and 4j inches in thick ness. Placing against this a tube , ho passed gas from ono of the street pipes against the brick. After wait ing a few minutes ho put a light against the other face of the sand stone and immediately a small flame sprang up , showing that the gas had gotio through the substance. Ho then took a mass of brickwork , made ot best Philadelphia brick , Against ono face of this ho put the tube , and at the back of it a candlo. Ashe blow through the tube the light was plainly deflected. Yory little pressure , ho said , was enough to send the air or gas through. Sewage gas penetrates substances with just as much orgroat- or ease. A water trap is perfectly useless , unless there bo a ventilating pipowith it ; then the water will check the gas , and the latter will naturally seek its easiest way out. The walls ot hospitals , Dr. Doromus Bays , become saturated with disease , and the only way to euro them is to adopt the Ho- bnuc plan and leave not ono stone standing upon another He had found chlorine gaa the best disinfectivo for such purposes. Ho had once gener ated three tons of this gas in a ward of Boliovuo hospital where pyromia was constantly occurring though the sat uration of tho' walls with poison , and .thoro had boon a marked improve ment since.Tlio chlorine treatment , ho says , should bo resorted to every few months in such places.
