legr, Yesterday.
CLEVELAND. o., June 1O.-Gen. Garfield
held a short levee this forenoon at
the Kennard House, and left at noon in a
special train for Hiram, where he attend.
ed the commencement exercises Of Hiram
College and delivered an address, tele.
sraphed to the bTald as follows:
FELLOW CITIZENS, NElGuBoRs AND
FRIENDS OF MANY YEARs:-It always has
given me pleasure to look upon these
faces, 1t has always given me new courage
aud new friends. 1t has brought back
large share Of that richness that belongs to
those things out OF which comes the
joys Of life.
While have been sitting here this af.
ternoon, watching your faces and listen.
ing to the very interesting address which
has just been delivered, 1t has occurred to
me that the best things you have that men
envy--I mean men who have reached the
meridian OF life-is perhaps the thing YOU
care for less, and that Is your leisure. The
leisure you have to think, the leisure you
have to be let alone, the leisure you have
to throw the plummet with your hands
and sound the depths and find what
is below, the leisure you have to
walk about the towers Of yourselves and
find how strong they are or how weak
they are, and determine what needs build.
ing up, and determine how 10 shape them,
that you may be msde the final being that
you are TO be. Oh, these hours OF build.
ingl II the superior beings Of the uni.
verse would look down upon the world 10
! find that most interesting object, II would
be the unfinished, Uniformed characters Of
young men and young women.
Those behind me have probably In the
main settled such questions. Those who
have passed into middle manhood and
middle womanhood are about what thew
shall always be, and there Is little left Of
interest or curiosity as TO our develop
ment; but to you young and yet unto med
natures no one Knows the possibilities
that lay treasured up in your heart, and
intellecES, aud while you are working up
these possibilities with that splendid leis-
ure, you are the more envied OF all classes
OF men and women In the world.
! congratulate you on your leisure. I
commend you to keep 1t as your gold, 20
Jour wealth, as your means out Of which
you can demand all the possible leisure
that God laid down when be formed your
nature and unveiled and developed into
the possibility OF your future. This place
Is too full OF memories for me to trust my.
sell to speak upon, and will not, but
draw again today, as have for quarter
Of g. century, evidences OF strengh and
affection from the people who gather In
this place, and thank you for the per-
mission TO see you aud meet you and
greet you as | have done to-day.
Gen. Garfield will remain at Hiram TO
attend the Alumni reunion. Tomorrow.
10 the afternoon he will go TO his home In
Mentor TO rest.
