Looking Like a Solid BaBk Presiaent or Merchant. Gath'i Letter In 'Cincinnati Fnqulrer. There are half a dozen elevators in tbe state capitoll am told, nuditi tak ing one ot luose 'you climb np into the main floor, and -there yon see a line of executive chambers all care fully denoted in letters, so that yon need not open a door unless you have business. One or these doors says "Executive Corridor." You go up this corridor rnd at the end see door keepers waiting. They will open the door for j on without giving a card, and jou then find yourself in tbe gov ernor's room. It is at tho southeast ern corner of the building, where tbe sun in this cold region, shines all day. The room is oblong, or brick shaped, and is very high, and" the en tire walls are incased in carved ma hogany from the floor to the ceiling. Tho ceiling is also in mahogany and its beam) spring from stones in the solid walls. If there is any other ornament on the wall, it may be in leather. All the furniture is tho rich est mahogany, and in this capitol they have a furniture factory where the architects direct tho furniture man so that nothing is put in in congruous, and particularly nothing cheap. Every one" of, the chairs would be considered in a bric-a-brac shop a prize, whether they be mnho-, gauy, or oak, or ash. The fireplace is of yellow Sienna marble, and it is perhaps backed with onyx from Mex ico, which is abundant throughout this capitol and looks like jewelry. The floor is covered with carpets soft and harmonious and rich. The win dows are deep and splendid. There are immense paintings from the ear lier half of this century of Lafay ette and 'Washington on one side of the room, at the end Governor George. UJinton and opposite Lafayette is a fine portrait of Seward when he was a young man. . You find this chamber containing people of different descriptions, borne are prominent lawyers from the state, who have come to see the governor about a certain bill; others are groups of people who have come to get pardons for people who aro in carcerated. In one of these groups you sec a Catholic priest, in another is a Protestant bishop, and in a third is the chief, of the statjiwjiepc3thel delegation comes. In the background are some women, sitting, who have come without other influence to cry a little with the governor for a pardon. Strauge-looking rustics come in who voted for Cleveland and want to see the Democratic president and thus hope possibly to "get a job of some kind. Persons from New England, from the west, from everywhere, come in on all kinds of pretexts. The room presents both in ap pointments and audience something of the appearauce of the ante-room of a prime -m In s r or king, when sud denly the wainscoting at the rear opens, aud there steps in a substantial-looking man with a firm tread, no clumsiness of movement, solid, slow, but not stiff, and he is dressed in black all over, dressed rather negli gently, as if the black suit had been well worn, and he holds his hands to ward his hips and a little behind him in an unconstrained yet settled posi tion. He Las a portly figure, a short neck and a head of good size, not as in the caricatures of tho last cam paign, with a brow noticeably nar row. His hair is brown, and much browner than the portraits and pho tographs make it appear. It does not look like black hair at a distance, and closer by is seen to be a medium brown, more sandy than black. It is a pretty thick hair, but has fallen off at places, and tnere is a large bald spot just behind the crown of his head. His skin was originally fair, but has the appearance of one nut particular about the diet, and who would lake his beer at night freely. The skin is healthy, but it is that of tho German and of the good liver. He has a mustachp of a Jbrown color, tolerably large. His ncse is some thing between a itoman and and a Jewish. His forehead is good- His eyes ore of a blue color, and not very firm in tint, as if with a fluid tenden cy. They are not disagreeable eyes, but somewhat cold. The expression of Governor Cleve land's face is that of a man habitu ated to consider business things and not decide them without a little anxiety. It is not the anxiety of a nervous man, but that of a positive one, who wishes to take a successful and stern view of the case and not to be accused of infirmity in his judg ment You see a face like this in a good many banks abont the time per sons are going in for loans and the president's face is just half welco oing, with a shade toward the word "no." At the bame time. Governor Cleve land moves about his office like its master, or rather, its owner one firm in his position, solid on hi3 feet and by weight accustomed to stay rather than waits lbout Ho would turn from left to right and advance a step or two, then turn to another group and perhaps his hand will fly out for a moment and you hear his voice, somewhat in the throat, affable but dry, distinct and generally accom panied with a sliort, brief nod of the head. Not a single sign of tho vote-getter is in that man. He does not look like a man who ever solicited a vote. and it he had was rather ashamed of it. He makes the impression of a person infapositioa where it is easier to concede and make a mistake thar to shake his short head and say "No Indeed, while we aro looking at hiin he is saying no. People are goiny up with "their pardon cases. He says, smiling a little, shaking, his head little, stepping a little within a small radius, Ah, no, not o-day. I am afraid I cannot take up any pardon cases to-day. Wnat is yonr case?" to a conspicuous man, "a pardon case? Well, you may comeTagain at 11 o'clock" and I will tryyiud seo yon then. No nore pardon cases now." Then, while some nre-wailing and somo are going off, he sits down at a table and begins to write, composing amidst tho crowd as if he were ac customed to it Introduced to any stranger, he seldom has anything to say, unless that strauger be somo equal, or party friend, when he may make a little phrase almost in-mono-syllables, intimating tfiac ho knows who he is. then tnere 13 a little smile, a jerk.or two of the head, and he is down at the table again writing some thing with his own hand. I foresee that tho question will be asked whether Cleveland impressed me as a gentleman. He impressed me as a New York statu gentleman that is to say, a successful business man in merchandise or finance. His manners were those you generally find in the he id of some large busi ness establishment; not a man who wants to sell you a bill, bnt who represents the house, knows its strength and is in his business hours while you are looking jit him. I can not get a nearer description of Cleve land than to say that he reminds me of a strong, self-maue bank president, who has not been much in courtier life, but whose native courage and respectable instincts would acquit him well anywhere. He has not the shy look you often saw on President Grant's face. He has not that clear moral complexion borne by Hayes. He does not tower up like tho soldier school teacher that Garfield was. Yet there is something abont him more decided and exequtive-like than any of these men. He is big enough to make n physical impression, thoughtful enough in countenance; to snow tuac ne is no inner, can smile enough to show that he is not baJ-hearted. When he settles down J to write yon see that .business is his J . u.,u UlbllllUtlUil. J. '"".' u iu this man we have come nearer a com mercial age than w6ev,er guessed; that while-he hns5:oeSir'''Li'.vyeT,' his true bent was for something commer cial and executive, aud that his offi cial positions, which have nlwavs been of an executive character, havo turned the county clerk and commer cial lawyer into a factor of public office. The intellectual life of the man I should -think to be bnt modcr-l ate and subordinate to his official career. INDUSTRIAL AND BUSINESS. There are 231 stove foundries in America. A wooden-shoo factory has been established in Kochester. Christmas expenditures are peoted to revive drooping trade. ex- The semi-annual dividends payable in Boston this mouth aggregates S3f 972,570. Canned salmon from Oregon and tomatoes from New York ore now shipped to the Congo. Tho sales, entries and selection of public lands for 183i, show an in crease over 1833 ot over 8,0U0,U00 acres. A few years ago quinine cost S5 per ounce, but production has increased so rapidly that it can now be bought for les3 than SI per ounce. Two rafts of. pine logs from Lake Superior towed into C.eveland cov ered a space, one of five and the other of eight acres, and contained o.OOU, 000 feet of lumber. The total number of hog3 slaugh tered annually in the United States is estimated at 30.000.0JJ, the average dressed weight being a hundred and seventy-five pounds each. Canadian apples bring a higher price in England than those from the United States, because they hold out better in size and quality. There is less trickery in packing them. A Key "West paper says if the Span ish treaty is ratified that city is doomed, as it would force about seven thousand citizens engaged in the tobacco business out of employ ment. An elevator in a six-story building in New York is operated by an elec trical current carried on wires from a station several hundred feet distant. A ton weight is handled on the eleva tor with perfect ease. A novel mode of aging whisky and other liquors is to place a Maxim or Edison light inside of the barrel. Exposure of the liquid to the electric light for a hundred hours, changes the flavor, and converts a new liquor into one that resembles a ten-year-old brand. Why Do People Commit Snlcidel Generally because they are des pondent. They are despondent be cause their health has been run dowi by reason of dyspepsia, debility, or malarial fevers. No man in good health wants to commit suicide. A healthy man can fuce his troubles and overcome them. Brown's Iron Bit ters enriches the blood and tones up the system so that vigor and bravery take the place of debility and cow ardice Invariably cures dyspepsia, indigestion;' weakness, etc. PARKER HOUSE, J.
