A VERY SERIOUS CRISIS.

THE PRESIDENTS CONDITION ALARMlNu'

VERY HIGH FIGURE-DYsPEPsIA CAUSING VoM-
ITING-THE TEMPERATURES NOT MUCH ABOVE
THE NoRMAL-GREAT ANXIETY AROUSED BUT
HOPE NOT ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS BLAINE
SUMMONED.
The pulse of President Garfield, which was
quite high yesterday morning, rose through
out the day; at the time of the even
ing bulletin it beat 13O. Later in the
evening it fell to 12O The physicians
ascribe this rise to a violent attack of dys-
pepsia, which caused the President to
vomit several times and made it necessary
to administer nourishment by injection.
The change in the patients condition
excited great alarm and the physi-
clans made no attempt to conceal the gravity
of the crisis. DIR. Bliss stated last evening
that the chances were rather in the Presidents
favor. Secretary Blaine was recalled to WASH
ingtOn, and dispatch was sent to the Vice
President. At midnight the President was
sleeping naturally

Vomted three times since 1 O'clock. Although the
afternoon rise of temperature is less than it has
been for several days the pulse and respiration are
more frequent, so that his condition is, on the
whole, less satisfactory. His pulse is now 40 !.

Gov. SMITH Of Wisconsin had occasion
10 call out" few companies ct state troops
TO prevent and suppress an anticipated dis
tnrbance OF the peace at Eau Claire; and
on welcoming them back to Madison he
said that the Eau Claire authorities first
wanted to call upon the general government
Tor the regular army, fearing the state
militia would be unequal to the occasion.
1t is greatly to the credit Of Gov. Smith
that such suggestion was overruled. II
the general government is to be called on
to suppress every local disturbance, the
idea Of self government might as we'll be

AN eastern paper takes excepho ms to
popular designations of Temperance men. I"
und says that the proper title for men who
refuse to touch, taste or handle spirituous,
vinous or malt liquors is ''total abstain
ers and not Temperance men," He says
that one cannot be temperate" in the use
of anything which he does not use at all:
one who drinks one glass day is tenn
perate man; one who drinks q quart of
whiskey day is an intempe1ate man; one
who takes not drop that brewed, dis
titled or fermented liquor is not temper
ate man, in that respect, but total ab-
sta'ner: and the name of Temperance So
cieties given to associations of such men
is an abuse of language and misleading.
