The Presidents Condition.

There was slight increase OF the Presidents
FEVER last evening over the night before. but the
doctors attributed it to gastric disturbance.
The growing appetite of the President had it
appears, been INDUCED little too far with solid
Iood Tor a man who could not aid digestion with
exercise. The slight increase of fever warned
the doctors to confine their patient for awhile
longer to very simple diet. Besides. the at
tending surgeons have frequently said. ups
and downs must be expected in the Presidents
case until he is actually conyaescent. The doc
tors feel no uneasiness whatever at these occa-
sional changes which bring some increase of
fever. The disappearance of fever this morning
shows that there has been no real occasion for

ReadjuSter Tactics.

The Virginia readjusters are industriously
manipulating the wires with the view of getting
control of the republican state convention
which meets at Lynchburg on the 10th of Au-
gust. In the counties where the cOlored vote
predominafes they are circulating copies of let
tiers written by certain republican Senators in
favor of coalition. In the counties where the
white voters prevail the readjusters employ
quite different tactics. There they most loudly
protest their devotion To democracy. and ar
ralgn the ''funders" as assistant republicans"
etc. III there were nothing else to condemn the
readjuster party. this double dealing should
warn republicans against it. But the position of
the readjusters upon the state debt is the question
OF prime Importance. Should the republicans
OF the state IN convention assembled, decide to
unite with the readjusters then they virtually
endorse the policy of the latter, and become
partly responsible for its assault upon the public
credit There is no escaping this fact no avoid
ing this responsibility. The Riddleberger bill,
which is the financial platform of the readusters,
proposes to arbitrarily cut off, eliminate. or
wipe out about one-third of the state debt and
to Tx the rate of interest ON the portion assumed
TO be due at per cent per annum The total
Debt of Virginia, after assigning to West Viz
the time the latter state was created Is, accord
ing TO estimates by leading democrats and re-
pubiicans of the state in the neighborhOOd of
$SS,0OO.OOO. The Riddleberger bill by system
OF rapid satisfaction. peculiar to the readjust-
ers. reduces the total debt TO about $50 OOO. OOO
Inc theory OF the party is that it is utterly i'm
possible for the people to pay the entire debt or
even the rate of interest agreed upon; that to
undertake. it would result in failure because of
inability to pay. and such failure would be vir-
tuai reputation; that, therefore it is compare
tive honesty, at least, to determine upon an
amount and rate of interest which the people
can pay In the readjuster plans for settling the
debt the creditors are ignored entirely. Their
right to voice as to what they are willing to
accept receives no consideration. They are
dealt with on the principle that they hold very
bad debt. anyhow, and they had better be glad
70 get anything for it, There will. judging from
present appearances, be sharp contest in the
convention between the Lewis wing of re-
adjuster coalitionists and Gen. Wickham's body
Of straight-out republicans. Many of the ablest
and most prominent republicans of the state will
De members of the convention, and so far those
who have enjoyed the largest share of party re-
spect and honOrs have been chosen as delegates
to support Gen. Wickham.

SOCIETY NOTES.

The Presidents children will. II is said, spend
Christmas with him at the Executive Mansion
His son is in his first year at Columbia College,
and the little girl is at school III New York. The
President does not intend having his children re-
main here, there will be no lady In the house to
take care Of his daughter. AS he justly says he
would have no time to look after her, and he could
not permit her to stay in the house without some
lady to take charge OF her. Since Mr.. Buchanans
administration until now there have been young
children in the White House, either the children
or grandchildren of the President.
The families OF few OF the Senators were found
at home yesterday, but most ladies have too much
shopping to do now for the holidays to spare the
time for making or receiving calls. Pennsylvania
