sour: Four parts by weight Of glue are
allowed to soften in fifteen parts Of cold
water for some hours, and then moder-
ately heated till the solution becomes
quite clear sixty-fve parts of boiling
water are now added with stirring. In
another vessel thirty parts of starch
paste are stirred up with twenty parts
Of cold water, so that a thin, milky
fluid without Jumps is obtained. Into
this the boiling glne solution is poured
with constant stirring, and the whole is
kept at the boiling temperature. After
cooling. ten drops Of carbolic acid are
added TO the paste. The paste must be
preserved in closed bottles TO prevent
evaporation of the water, and will in
this way keep good for years.

The services were conducted by Rev. Isaac
Errett, of Cincinnati, whose address occupied
forty minutes.
After the services had been concluded, there
| were few moments of confusion and prepara-
ton, during which time the Washington
Marine band played Nearer my God to
| Thee
| The funeral procession moved from Monu-
! mental Park at five minutes before IL o'clock.
| The time occupied in moving the casket
| from the pavilion to tire funeral car was about
| fifteen minutes. corps of United States
! marines from the United States steamer
| Michigan, formed parallel lines from the
! east side Of the pavilion to the east entrance
| to the park, through which the casket was
| borne on the shoulders of the United States
artillerymen, under command Of Lieut.. Weav-
or, I'd United States Artillery, to the funeral
car, followed by the mourners, who took seats
! in the carriage.
Grandma Garfield bore the services remark
ably well, as did also the widow Of the Presi-
dent. The only incident which occurred at the
| pavilion was tho request of Grandma Garfield
for drink of water, and many persons con-
strued this as an indication that the old lady
was faint. Such was not the case, however.
No one excepting the family, members of the
several committees, and the distinguished
| guests were admitted within the gates OF the
park. "The military" presented magMh-
cent scene.
The column was headed by that volunteer
| organization, the Boston Fusiliers, who had
travelled from Massachusetts, in order to pay a
last tribute to their deceased comrade by par
ticipating in the obseauies. They were followed
by companies B and of the Seventy-fourth
National Guards of New York, the Buffalo City
Guard Cadets whose appearance was greatly
admired, and the Buffalo City Guards. Next
came the famous United States Barracks
Band of Columbus, followed by the
Governors Guard, q magnificent and finely
proportioned body Of men. The Toledo Cadets
made q verv handsome showing. and received
prominent recognition from the spectators for
their precision In marching. Much favorable
comment WAS manifested upon the Detroit
Infantry battalion, and the Washington In
fantry, Of Pittsburg, was equally well re-
ceived. The Gatling Gun Battery and the
Cleveland Light Artillery followed in platoon
front, and their appearance delighted the
spectators from the country.

which the funeral procession passed, were
draped and appropriately decorated in man

The body Of the late President Garfield was
removed from Long Branch to Washington on
the 21st inst. 1t was embalmed and encased in
an elegant casket, with suitable inscription and
handsome floral decoration. The account says,
"those who knew him in life and robust health
were shocked by the fearful change that had
taken place-only faint resemblance of his
former self remaining" Before the removal
Of the remains from the cottage to the train,
funeral services were read and prayer offered
by the Rev. Mr.. Young, pastor Of the church
at Long Branch. The services were simple and
unostentatious, and no persons were present
except General Garield's family, members of
the Cabinet and their wives, and two or
three gentlemen who had been constant
and devoted friends and attendants.
The car, No. 497, which carried the body to
Washington, had its sides and roof covered
with Grape. A soft dark carpet covered the
floor and In the center Of the car stood a
catafalque also covered with Grape and black
rosettes at the sides and ends. In the car sat
the military escort commanded by Lieutenant
Patterson, q former cadet appointed from
Steubenyille, Ohio. The next car continued
the members OF Cabinet, and the following
last-was President Roberts private car. Cen
eral Grant and President Arthur, who had
been escorted to Mrs. Garfeld's car, remained
until the train started. The incidents en- route
! were solemn and touching. Az the train moved

She was rendered weak and . little nervous
by the announcement, and was obliged once
or twice to repair to her room, where, in
the solitude, she might begin to comprehend
the awful truth, but she was not contented
to remain there, and soon returned to the
sitting-room. About half past o'clock Mrs.
Garfield was found sitting in rocking chair
waiting for news. The morning paper she read
with eagerness. at can not be that James is
