THE PREsIIENF's CONDITION.

WASHINGTON, July 2.-The follow
ing bulletin was sont this morning to
each of tic Cabinet officers by Private
Secretary Brown:
EXECUTIVE MANSION, 8 A.. M.--The
Improvement in tile Presidents condi-
ton continues to be steady and unin-
terrupted. His pulse this morning is
98, with q normal temperature and
respiration. lie is bright and cheer
fab has an excellent appetite, and ex-
presses adcsiD for more substantial
nourishmcnt. There Is 10 better in
dication Of his progress than dispo-
sitiOn which lie is now rnNnitesting to
think md to talk Of outside matters.
The Surgeons express themselves as
'GM,iMly satisfied with tho progress Of
the case.
Several days ago the Presidents
medical advisers yielded TO- the sug-
gcstious Of eminent medical men
l1lfronghOiit tho country who had mani
tirstcd surprise that no microscopic
examination Of the pas coming from
tho wound had been made, and COM
menccd Il daily examination The re-
suit. so far, fails to Indicate any pene-
trating wound of the liver. From
tSN'ifS lSSIooI3 lbS
bulletins have failed to say ANYTHING
on the subject. The belief now is that
the bnll was DETECTED downwards by
the rib, not in any way wounding the
aiVnn and probably not even pcretrat-
ing the cavity OF tho abdomen. The
saun,liGcd uppcarancc oftslc skin which
Was reported us existing for several
days can be accounted for as the re-
suit Of the shock and Dsow from the
ball in such close contiguity TO the
liver. g.,

GUITEAU SHOT AT.

On Saturday afternoon as. Guiteau
was being conveyed from the court
house to the prison, man on horse
back rode up and fred shot into the
van, in which Guiteau was seated, the
ball merely grazing his wrist, inAict.
ing the slightest imaginable wound.
The would.be killer was arrested-at
least it was supposed to be the right
man-his name being VIM. Jones.
After be had fred the shot he rode by
the driver Of the van, beside whom a
policeman was sitting, and remarked
i've shot the --." The police
man fred after him but miesed him.
After the man Jones was arrested, the
policeman who had fired ct him was
called to indentify him but failed to
do so, saying he was not the man who
fired the shot at Guiteau. The affair
created good deal of excitement
about Washington until it was found
the wound was very slight. The Der
rick, in an article Oh the subject ex-
presses our sentiments to the letter
while all should feel gratified that
no violation of the law occurred which
encouraged the crime of assassination
and that prompt measures were taken
for the arrest of the guilty party, it is
Enthusiastically the fact that the an.
nouncement of the shooting caused
universal qualification among all class
es Of persons and genuine regret when
it was found that the. wound was so
trivial. There is feeling of uneasi.
ness, in the minds of all our people,
that this double.dyed villain-Guiteau
may escape and that pretended in
sanity may slip him through the
Toeshes of the net now round about
him. This feeling, in connection with
the prevailing belief that he should be
speedily hung or otherwise disposed
OF, manifests itself 10 these attempts OF
his life and the joy felt at this last
effort. The anxiety manifested to
protect the rascal and the over.zeal.
Gus eagerness shown in capturing bis
assailant, do not meet with the hearty
approval which usually is accorded to
all officers of the law, when perform.
ing their duty. The reason is obvi
GUS. This fellow is looked upon al
something outside the pale of consid
Grafton, as an excresence which should
be cut of from society and the world
as soon as possible; as a foul cancer
eating into the life of the people
whose best beloved be destroyed, hence
there is but little patience with th'
delay of the trial and no sympatb!
whatever with him, and many fee
that the same caution used to protee
James A. Garfield, that is now promi
nent in throwing a eoidon Of officer
around his murderer, might hav'
saved his valuable life. Notwith
standing all this, it is the duty Of al
law-abiding citizens to srowu down al
attempts to aveEge murder by mur
der; to give the scOundrel every show
for his miserable life, within the strict
letter Of the law, hoping a ropes end
