The Fund for Mrs. Garfield.
Mr.. FIELD NAMES AN EXPLANATION AND

Mr. FIELD NAMES AN EXPLANATION AND AN
APPEAL.
Mr. Cyrus ". Field last night had the follow
Ing teiegraphed over the country: The deata
of the President has led to inquiries in regard
to the fund raised for the benefit of Mrs Gar
field The whole amount subscribed at present
Is 49,. 5G.3 s.. of which every dollar has been
paid, except a single subscription of 5000
which was made on condition that S245 900 was
hrst raised. and may be withdrawn should
not that amount be secured. The money as fast
as received. was deposited with the United States
trust Company, and soon as a sufficient
amount was paid in the Trust Company purchased
100000 four per cent registered government
bonds. to which has since been added S25 600
more Owing to the high premium this :l25, 600
In bonds cost Sl45. PSI %. The bonds remain on
deposit with the Trust Company for Mrs. Gar
field. the interest of which. $1,000 a wear, will
be paid to her quarterly, long as she lives and
al her death the whole amount will be divided
equally amongst the surviving children of James
A Garfield There is balance in cash of
S1.3lS-l3, which, with whatever may be added
hereafter. will be applied in the same way There
would seen to be reason for expecting a con-
siderable addition to the fund now that the Presi-
dent is gone Individuals have made liberal
promises of what they would do in the event of
his death Some even felt there was an imprO-
priety IN the attempt TO raise subscriptions while
ne was still living with hope of recovery: that
the gilt would create a feeling OF personal obi
CATION tnat might prove embarrassing hereafter.
Some were restrained from giving lest there mo-
tive> should be misunderstood. That objection
Is now removed. No one need fear the imputa-
ton OF unworthy motives for which there is no
longer place. Our dead President has no fayOrs
TO give. no hOnOrs TO bestOw He cannot be
touched by tokens of public sorrow, even by a
whole nation following at his bier But there is
a practical way of showing respect for the dead
by kindness to the living. He is gone. but his
wife and his children live to carry through
all their lives the burden OF this great sorrow
Mrs Garfield will soon leave the capital in which
her husband was lately the head of $1,000 go of
people. To go back to her distant home widowed
and desolate- Only once before has there been
anything so pathetic in American history. That
the Country will deal generously with this
stricken household no one will doubt but great
bodies move slowly. and it is long to wait We
have preferred TO do something no,c asking only
the privilege in this first flush of grief of show
ing our sympathy in practical way. and so in
some slight degree, if we cannot soothe the hid
den SORROW of relieving anXieties that must
press upon that widowed mothers heart
