Long Branch. Sept. 6.-No change is
reported in the condition Of the presi-
dent since the last dispatch. It is ascer.
tained at 1870 O'Clock that he had been
sleeping quietly for an hour and quar-.
ter. There is better feeling than early
in the night.
The cabinet arrived tonight and will
remain for the present
Secretary Lincoln says: "In case the
president rallies we may return, but the
prospect is not very favor able"
There will be reasonably fair facili-
ties for handling paper reports to-mor-
row. but great delay will be caused by
the long distance to the telegraph
Office.
A gentleman this evening iutimated
that DR.. Agnew had given little or no
encouragement, but this is considered
exaggerated or misconstrued. The
patient is certainly decidedly low, but il
Is confidently expected that the morning
dressing will show improvement.
The latest tonight is from Secretary
Brown, who stated that DR.. Reyburn
reported at 1880 that the pulse had fal.
len to los, and the temperature not much
above the normal. The cottage at 1880
was closed for the night. It Is impossi-
BILE to obtain anything further tonight
unless there is q change for the worse
when the press will be informed through
Brown.
THE ARRIVAL.
The presidential train arrived ct Elbe-
ron at 10 p. M, and reached the cottage
ter inmates later: There we're about
10000 people in the vicinity Of the presi-
dents quarters. Regular troops are on
guard. There it no trouble in preserving
order. No sound marred the quiet Of
the neighborhood.
Mrs. Garfield. upon her arrival, looked
calm and not at al worried. DR.. Bliss
and Mr.. Corbin said the patient bore the
journey exceedingly we'll. His pulse has
not been above ITO. Upon reaching
Long Branch Corbin says that it was
suggested that it would soon be time to
take bath. The president said: 1--WE
need progress now more than q bath. %
At every town and station along the
route masses of people gathered, general.
ly with uncovered heads. Everything is
perfectly quiet about the quarters. There
is general qualification at the presidents
standing the trip 30 we'll. A bulletin will
soon be issued.
Shortly before noon about $500 peo-
pie gathered in the vicinity of Franklyn
cottage. The guard kept them back
and although there was . rush made
when the train arrived. there was no diff.
ficulty in keeping them back. No ex,
element prevailed. only natural curiosi
ty. just before reaching the cottage the
train stopped and the first car and bag
gage car were detached and pushed BY
hand around sharp curve, making
semi-circle around the presidents cot
tage. Then the presidents car was gent
ly pushed over the same course to th
cottage entrance. An awning arouns
the portico protected the patient from
| the sun and observation, aud the remov
al to the rooms was accomplished with
out exciting him in the least. He az
peared to be little fatigued but did no
complain, and seemed perfectly satisfied
The surgeons are much gratifed with tn
manner in which the removal was cor
Quoted, and are generally of the opinio
that the president bore the journey e1
ceedingly we'll. The bulletins will cor
tinue three times day. There will b
no distribution of bulletins except q
Secretary Browns Office, where copie
will be served.
