HOPE REvIvING.

The Sad Faces About the Mansion Bright
eninG- The Presidents Death no Long
or Theme Of Discussion.
New YORK, Aug. 27.-From the Tri-
bune'S extra:
WASHINGTON, d. c., l0A.M
As the official bulletin, which has Just
been issued, shows, the President has
not only lost no ground during the night
but seems to have gained some. His
pulse is much steadier, and his temper
ature and respiration are about normal.
The whole atmosphere of tn, White
House has changed, and expressions Of
reviying hope are heard on every side.
Even the physicians show change
in their faces, and the question
Of tie Presideat's death is no longer q
theme OF DISCUSSION as it was Yesterday,
but now only the possibilities OF recoy-
eiy are talked OF. DR.. Bliss said this
morning shortly before 8 o'clock that he
felt encouraged, but he thought the
great trouble now would be to prevent
the people from becoming too much
el.ted. There is no ground, said he,
for that. There is not hope enough.
The simple fact is that the improvement
which set in yesterday afternoon
has been maintained. General
Swain, Who vas slmost alone
with Col. Rockwell yesterday in : elgs.
ing to give the President up, Is fairIy
jubilant this morning. 81 know" said
he, "a great many people saYe bin up
yesterday, but never did I've been
pinning my faith TO i, that TmaDis
pluck for twenty years" There are'a
few details to be gwen OF the history OF
the night. The President rested better
than for some nights past, sleeping once
for an hour. He took his nQarisha1eni
regular every two hours The usuai EN-
emata were aduinisteAed' and he was
sponged of twice. His pulse remained
pretty steadily at l04 through the night,
dropping about seven O'Clock To- log
where it remained at the time the bulle
tin was issued. He has had no lever. ;
