Captain Blanchard, oil Brooklyn, New
York, has been in the city making an
effort to cure the President. He bias
been sea captain and his particular
method OF cure is EsI
Animal Magnetism.
He is big, strong man, and said that
he had cured many cases simply by
handling the body and imparting to u
animal magnetism. He only wanted 70
see him an hour a day and promised
after a week or ten days operation to
put him out OF danger. There have been
number of offers OF a somewhat
similar character made, all OF them are
rejected with thanks. The President
complained some this Afternoon of the
sensitiveness Of the swollen side OF his
face; that the swelling is diminishing is
evident. The inoisions made in the
face ars washed out with Permanganese
ST potash. The connection between the
two incisions heretofore noted is made
by means OF probe under the flesh. OF
course a flow OF Permanganese potash
through the probe throughly cleanses
the two connected cavities.
The Day at the Executive Mansion
has been extremely quiet and unevent.
ful, the news from the sick room being
very gratifying to all enquirers. Shortly
after midday the bulletin was issued
ripple of excitement became noticeable
owing to a rise OF the patients pulse to
ll6. The rise, the attending surgeons say,
was due to slight incision of the parotid
gland made by DR.. Bliss this morning.
They express the opinion that during
the extremely enfeebled condition OF
the patient, no importance can be at
tached to the slight fluctuations of the
pulse. The President continued to
take his usual punishment during the
day, in addition to Koumiss milk por-
ridge and beef tea, which he partook
of it freely and ate piece OF milk toast
with apparent relish. The beef tea,
which be Is now taking, is prepared by
Mrs. Garfield. and the patient is said to
relish this food.
DR.. Boynton said the glandular
trouble was apparently much better and
there was large discharge from it this
morning; that there was not much
change in the condition of !
the wound, and that grauulation |
had been renewed, but not to any great |
extent. He considered the general con.
dition OF the patient fully as good as yes
terday.

EXECUTIVE MANSION, 2 P. Mn
reply to questions Co onel Rockwell said |
this afternoon that the Presidents con-
dition to-day had been about as it was
yesterday. He has fully held his own
but has not gained percephbly in
strength. No special importance is at
tached to the high pulse shown by the
noon bulletin. 1t was attributed, prin-
cipally, to irritation caused by the cut
ling OF the parotid swelling this morn
ng. AS long, Col. Rockwell said, as the
gland continues to be source OF almost
constant disturbance, we must expect
hese fluctuations OF the pulse. Since
he noon bulletin, however, the Pres:-
lent's pulse has gone down again TO ITO

port no noticeable change in the Presl-
ient's condition since 10 P. NJ. de Is
