TIE WEATHER.

The increase of temperature and puIs'
in ahe latest bulletin, is ascribed by the
physicians to the increase in the tempera
ture of the room. At 12 to-day the tenn
perature of the room was from three tt
four degrees lower than yesterday, or wouit
be if the refrigerating apparatus had no
been introduced The weather here to-da!
is about as it was yesterday. From
o'clock this morning until 80 o'clock this
afternoon, not breath of air was stirring

GENERAL MENTION.
The presidents bed has been changed for
"a higher, longer and narrower one, so that
he npay get air from the windows and
,ssvetdh out his feet without touching the
foot4board and be more easily turned by
the attendants A new invalids bed has
been telegraphed for. It turns out the pis-
tol used by Guiteau was a cheap common
weapon after all a self-coclxer, and as it
was so easy to shoot, many wonder he did
not fire more shots The pistol was bought
from O'NTeara, on the 9Th of June for ten
dollars.
EXECUTIVE MANSION, 3 p. m.-The con-
ditio1 of the President remained substan
tiallv unchanged since the date OF the last
Official bulletin.
A slight increase of pulse and tempera
ture since morning, said by the attending
physicians to be only a natural f1uctuatioI
of fever from morning until noon. The
President has eaten chicken broth to-day
and expressed a strong desire for toas
and oat meal with milk. The latter was
given him as probably the least objection
sahe King of solid food which he seemed tt
crave.

Col. BROOKS. the American consul at

lied citizen of the United States. but has

In imitation of the nihilists, the gam.
bling fraternity of Madrid have been of
late placing explosives in public places,

damage to buildings. One of these shells

AN Italian newspaper which is rep
resented by an English correspondent as
expressing the general feeling in Italy,
says that France DESTROYS in some degree of
plotting out the shame of her defeat in
1870, and conscious at the same time that
she is unable to measure swords with Ger
many, seeks in every possible way to pro-
woke war with Italy. The journal in
question advises the Italians to be patient,
to bidc their time, and, if the worst come
to be prepared to meet the exigencies, and
to choose the occasion for war. This is
plain talk enough.

What we Live For.

"What is life?' some one asked
Montford. His answer is one of the
most charming things ever written:
"The present life is sleeping and
waking; it is good night, on going to
bed, and good morning on getting up;
it is to wonder what the day will bring
forth; it is rain on the window when
one sits by the fire; it is walk in the
garden and see the flowers and hear
the birds sing; it is to hear news from
east, west, north and south; it is to
read old books and new books: it is to
see pictures and hear music. it it to
have Sundays; it is to have breakfast
and dinner and tea; it is to belong 10 a
town and have neighbors, and to be-
come one in circle of acquaintance;
it is to have friends and love; it is to
have sight at dear old faces; and it
is to know themselves thought Of many
times day, in many places, by many
children and grandchildren and many
friends"

Keep Cool.

q the horse that frets is the horse
that sweats." is an old saying Of horse
men, and is just as true of men as OF
horses. The man who allows himself
to get irritated at n every little thing
that goes amiss in business, or in the
ordinary affairs of life, is man that, as
a rule will accomplish little and wear
out early. He is a man for whom bile
and dyspepsia have particular fond
ness, and for whom children have a
particular aversion. He is a man with
a perpetual thorn in his flesh, which
pricks, and wounds at the slightest
movement; = man for whom life has
little pleasure and the future small
hope.
