A New Home for the President.

WASHINGTON, June 29.-The appro-
priations for furnishing and repairs to
the Executive Mansion will be availa-
BILE after the 3Oth inst, and the work
will be commenced as soon as possible,
probably next week. A good many OF
the rooms will be refurnished. After
the repairs shall be made and the new
furniture put in, it is contemplated to
keep the east room closed to the public,
as are all the others, but permitting
visitors and sight-seers to be conducted
through by an usher. The East Room
has for many years been made a com
mon lounging place and rendezvous,
and there seems no good or proper rea-
son why such should be the case. Mrs.
GARFIELD, before she lett for Long
Branch, expressed to number OF
friends considerable apprehension over
the rickety condition of the house, and
said she had been informed that at the
last diplomatic reception given by Mr.
Hayes, when there was such an i'm
mense jar, the floors shook aud swayed
50 much that many of those present
thought the building would tumble
down. These apDrehensions, however,
were doubtless not well-founded, and
the old historic mansion is likely to
hold toge' her for long time to come,
despite the weight Of pleasure-seekers
and Otfice-seekers which may be crowd
ed into it.
The Gartields will no doubt reoccupy
it for the remainder of the Presidents
term, and with much comfort. But it
is rather probable that within a com
parativ"ly few years the White House
will, AZ has often of late been suggested
be used only for the Presidents office,
and magnificent residence i'll more
eligible part Of thu city DE provided for
the use of himself and family. The in
diCations are that movements with this
purpose in view will he instituted at
the next session OfCongreSs. There are
several posse.SorS of fine estates here
who are quite willing to dispose Of them
for this object. A very Distinguished
and wealthy senator, " ho has had and
probably sill have Presidential aSpira-
tons, has with some others recently
purchased very fine property in the
northwestern suburbs, which, it is gem
orally understood, is, at seasonabIe
opportugity, to be pressed as the proper
place Un which to locate the new exc
cutive mansion.
