"How MANY STATIONS YET TO STOP AT"
DR.. Boynton. who was in the sick-room the
greater part of last night, says the President
passed good night, sleeping most of the
time. His sleep was more natural than any
night during the past week. During the iu-
tervals of wakefulness his mind was perfectly
clear. Once about A. NJ, when awake, and
while taking some nourishment, he remarked
to DR.. Boynton, evidently referring to his
several relapses. Doctor, I wonder how
many more stations l will have to stop at -

fact that the President held his own through
another day and night. He will feel con-

that he hopes the work of repair and re-
cuperation will commence.

tion of the patient quite as favorable as at

Sensational Story About President Tay.
ler's Death.
NEW YORK, August 29sh.-The Times
gives brief sketch of a sermon by Rev. DR..
A. Stewart Walsh in the Gospel tent on
"Oar Dying President" Sunday afternoon.
In closing his sermon Mr.. Walsh said my
friend, Hon. John A. Bingham, once told me
that ne had investigated the manner of the
death of President Zachary Taylor several
years ago, and that he was satisfied that
General Taylor died by the hand OF an as.
sassin. In brief, the circumstances were
that two men, one of whom was Jefferson
Davis, once went to President Taylor in the
dead of night and awakened him, and told
him that there were two bills before him for
approval. and, said they, : Ii you do not sign
those bills the South will hold you personally
responsible General Taylor shouted back
at them, without opening the door, refusing
their demand, ana telling them. that if the
South made any trouble he would raise
an army and go down there and crush
them. John A. Bingham is lawyer
and man of intellect, and he told me delib-
erately that Taylor, who died soon after that
visit, died under the hand of an assassin"
At the close of the service TIMES reporter
asked the Rev. DR.. Walsh if Mr.. Bingham
meant to convey the idea that General Tay-
lor was physically, literally, assassinated.
Mr.. Walsh replied that John A. Bingham
said that his investigation of the circumstancs
of President Taylor's death satisfied him that
he was actually, physically assassinated.
