Granger, has q fine collection. Mrs. LaDders
eass Of ohiIdren's clothes and dress-WsistI il
surrounded by a crowd of admiring young
married folks IN esse and IN PrOspeetH. 1t is
hHe. There is good display Of knit stock
ings. Mrs Whsslock and Miss Patterson Of
our city, exhibit Glove of bonnet" the
latest from Paris, with all the " "hxings," /"
around which the ladies crowd with sxOIamA-
tiOns of enthusiasm and delight.
But the crOwning exhibition in this de-
partment is, perhaps, Mssars. Hover & Hig
bees display of embroidered opera cloak'.
These are exquisite in color and design.
They csst from $50 to $50. They are four in
number, scarlet with black embroidery, yel-
low with blue, blue with white, and black.
KepPnor has fine display Of skirts. Mr..
Nights displsy of cotton stockings was
good. Mr.. Klein's cOrSsts and Skslston-
skirts We "passsd by on the other side, /" and
did not profane with our too near approach.
The display of patchwork and fancy quilts
of which some thirty were exhibited, Of
woOlsn goods, Of linen and flannel of dOmes-
tic manufacture, Of domestic carpets, of
hearth-rugs, Of yarn and yarn-stOokings'
and similar products of our Buckeye farms,
we find no room to notice in detail. They
were complete in quantity and fine in quality.
Tho competition in sewing machines is
brisk. The Florence has fOur machines on
hand and working. They sell from $50 to
slI5. CroWsll & Co., Of our own city, ex-
hibit three machines. Singer & Co., through
their agent Isaac A. Isaacs, who has fine
stock Of military goods also on hand, have
four machines in working order. Wheeler
& Wilson exhibit seven fac machines, Elias
Howe Eve, and Grover & Baker six. Among
the Grover i Baker machines Is one whose
beauty calls forth continual ordinations of
delight. 1t would grace a palace. It's cover
is ofrossWoOd, splendidly inlaid with mother
of pearl. It's price is $3.50 90.
Adjoining the niche filed by the Grover a
Baker machines, are two large paintings, de-
signed and executed by WadsWOrtb, the old
Cleveland sgent for this company, aad a
brother Of the present agent. Mr.. Wads-
worth makes no pretension to artistic ability,
but has certainly infused a great deal Of
spirit and expression into these two scenes.
One represents the days Of old, when the
poor seamstress toiled her life out bending
over her seantiIy paid for shirt, and Whsn
Hood electrified the world by his "sOng Of
Shirt" The other represents q scene Of the
present day, when the fortunate posssssOr Of
a sewing machine sits in her easy chair,
guiding the labor of her sewing friend, and
surrounded with objects of comfort and lux
ury, purchased by the Grover & Baker
Beckwith'I superb display Of carpsting
does no more than justice to their stock in
trade. Il attracts all eyes. Wsbster's oil
cloths receive deserved attention. Mr..
Pierce of MassillOn exhibits hne set of
embroidery stamps, which will prove great
favorite with ladies.
Among the novelties we note some cases
of oakum from Lewis, OF Cuyshoga Falls,
and autOnatOn OlOthss-presEss from Isaac
A. IsAass ana model of very ingenious
Fly Fender, which works by clock work and
keeps flies from children and sick and sleep
ing persons. It is patented by Mr. MunSen,
Independence.
The Cleveland WsoIeA Mills send some fine
specimens of their manufacture. Our home
trade is we'll represented throughout the
hail.
We see some feather and down beds on
which even the head that wears a crown"
might be warranted to rest easily.
some EoOlan shoes from C. Welsoh look
comfortable for winter wear.
But the crowd here, which has been great
all the morning is getting immense now,
and we hurry from the sea of crinoline, glad
to leave SO easily and escape the penalty for
entering with masculine feet on confines
sacred to the fairsr sex.
The plumbing works Of B. P. Bower was
the object of interest to an admiring crowd,
slI day yesterday, and the articles deserved
it. Mr.. Bower is doing large business,
and all his Work IS hrst rate.
Boss American chemical writing auid, for
which ]. N. Oven of this city is general
agent, is on exhibition in this hall, 1t is
the first of American inks in quality, and
proves that America can keep mp with the
rest of the world in inks as in all else. It is
fully equal to the best English inks.
