and did not sleep quite as we'll as on
Tuesday night. There has been no per.

infamed parotid gland. and two or three
days may elapse before the swelling sub.

The symptoms of yesterday are repeated
to-day. At this hour, 80 p. m., his fe.

fully, and had apparently not abandon
ed hope. The swollen gland was the
cause of fear. He said: We cut into it
and got out a little pus, but the trouble
is to get out all the matter and keep it
under control. 1t is probably all around
in the gland. and there is no telling
where it may burrow, and if we cut any
where else in the inAamed part we might
strike more pus. We may not know def
initely about it for several days, certain
ly not for two or three. and in the mean.
time we must control the ga athering
matter as best we can. We apprehend
no new and immediate bad result. We
must be prepared, of course, for bad de-
velopments, however.
It was learned this morning that the
presidents bowels are not acting, and
have to certain extent given way.
The effect of long continued injections
always weakens the lower bowels, and
yesterday they rejected their injected
dose involuntarily, and even the use OF
opium did not avail, so the injections
were given up till they'regain strength.
If the stomach should yield now there
would be great danger.
