hearing the report of Myra's sue

Mrs. Delmaine looked at him in
surprise.
Arthur what do you mean! Why

"Yes, l am-if you mean aston~

penny, received for the DISPOSAL of
her wedding dress, to satisfy her cred

Upon 9 sunny slope in Mexico,
Beneath the fairest Of all sum ner skies,
Two giant hs trees near dach otner grow,
And dlovingly upoa their rough sides rise
The tendrils of a fair and fruitful vine.
And when 1 saw them IN the autum time
While jovius in their lucious fruit and wine
Cheered by the glories Of the genial cline
The perfect picture brought pleasins

OF the abiding love that never dies,

UNOFFICIAL BULLETINS.
1.3O r. N.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 4.
The morning bulletin which mentioned
that the President had vomited twice during
the night, created considerable apprehension
throughout the city, and numerous enquiries
were made at the Mansion as to the cause of
it. The attending surgeons explained that the
vomiting was occasioned by the collection OF
phlegm in the throat and no serious conse
quences were expected to follow. The first
disturbance was not noticed as being of any
importance, but when il occurred the second
time it was at first considered to be very I'M
favorable. Soon after, however, patient
asked for and was given quantity of milk
porridge which he retained without difficulty.
Long after taking this he partoOk OF some
squirrel broth, which he appeared to relish
very much. One of the attendants upon the
President reported that during the morning
the glandular affection was decreasing rapidly
and that the wound was discharging trifle
more freely than it had been recently. 1t
appears, said the gentlemen, that as the dis
charge from the gland decreases, the flow of
pus from the wound increases. No nOticea-
BILE change in the character of the wound has
yet taken place. DIR. Boynton expressed the
opinion that the President, notwithstanding
the gastric disturbance experienced during
the night, was somewhat better than yester
day. 1t is generally conceded by those ac
quainted with the facts that the President
will be removed between tomorrow and
Wednesday, providing everything is favor
able. McVeagh said this afternoon that he
did not consider that the gastric trouble of
last night would interfere with his removal.

THE CRANE Err CASE.
The Jury Returns Verdict Against
James Malley. Jr.

New HAVEN. Ct, Sept. 3. The Cramer
jury of inquest gave a verdict tonight after
an all-day session, discriminating James NAL
lev, Jr., and holding Walter Malley and
Blanche Douglass morally responsible. Dur
ing the forenoon while testimony was being
taken. the Malleys were present, and looked
pale and worn, though each sported button
hole bouquet Both refused to say anything
in alteration or correction of the testimony
they gave three days after Jennie's
body was found, acting under advice.
The testimony was only of voluminous value
and in confederation of previous witnesses.
Mrs. Kilpustein. a BARRIERS wife, and Mrs.
Crofut, milliner, testified to seeing Blanche
Douglass and Jennie Cramer in company at
the Elliot House on the evenings of Wednes-
dav and Thursday. August 3 and 4, and to
seeing Walter with them. Both witnesses
also saw Walter Malley and Blanche Doug
claims as an alibi.

sworn to inquire of the cause and manner
of the death of Jennie f. Cramer, late of
New Haven, whose death was suddenly and
untimely, and the cause and manner of
which were unknown, having viewed the
body of said deceased and considered the
evidence given to us, do on our oaths say that
said Jennie E. Cramer came to her death by
poison and violence, and that James Malley,
Jr., of New Haven, CT, is criminally re-
sponsiblp for her death. We also find that
Walter f. Malley of New Haven, CT, and
Blanche Douglass of New York city, are
morally responsible for the same.

The Methodists are like the grain Of
mustard seed mentioned in the scripture.
From the smallest beginning in the last
century. when few university students
banded together in England, in less than
one hundred and fifty years the nominal
Methodist denomination has grown to a
population estimated ut $1,000 900. with
actual commandments TO the number of A.
600, 600. Last week an ecumenic,l con-
ference of the churches was held in
London. with membership of 400 dele
gates. One half of these was British and
from the continent of Europe. and the
other half from the churches OF the United
States and Canada. The conference WAS
composed Of lay and church delegates in
equal proportion. Its main objects were
to devise means for prosecuting home
and foreign work so as to result in the
greatest economy and efficiency. With
such growth the denomination would
hardly incur the charges of arrogance il
it should assume the title of the Holy
Catholic church. In this country it is one
OF the largest and the most rapidly grow
ing. and two otthe Presidents Of the United
ales have been Methodists.

FEARS OF MALARIA.
DIR. Hamilton Thinks the Presidents
Removal Question Of a Few Hours.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.
The condition of the President is not ma
terially changed since yesterday, although he
was thought to be little weaker and less
animated. There seems to be growing i'm
preston among his surgeons that he is begin
ming to be unfavorably affected by the wealth
er and malarious air from the Potomac river
flats, Immediately south of the Executive
Mansion. The rank vegetation which is fer
tilted by the city sewerage and stimulated
BY the abundant water and hot sunshine COW
ing these fats during the summer is now be-
ginning to decay and since yesterday morn
ing faint malarious mist has hung over the
river from the water front of the Executive
Mansion grounds to Long Bridge. Almost
every man rho has recently been engaged in the
work of removing the channel has been more
or less sick from malaria. DIR. Hamilton
said yesterday to Col. Crook, who took him
for drive down the left bank of the Poto-
mac opposite the flats, that the President
had not much chance to live in such an at
mosphere. One of the attending surgeons
said to friend this morning. that the Presi
dents symptoms had, he thought, taken on a
slightly intermittent character. within the
past four days. Wednesday morning he
seemed brighter and more animated. Thurs
DAY he was less so. Yesterday was a good
day and this morning. the patient seemed
weaker and more languid.
Dr. boynton was asked by representative
Of the Associated Press. what conclusion had
been reached regarding the removal of the
President from Washington. The doctor re-
piled that it had been virtually decided To
remove the President BY rail to Long Branch

A meeting of the cabinet was held at IL
O'Clock to-day at the State Department, Sec

and a quarter, and discussion of the situation
was held. Enquiries of several Of the caoi-
net officers failed to elicit other than the
most genial replies. The condition OF the
public business in the several departments
was reviewed. and it is believed the question
of the necessity for some executive acton
pending the Presidents temporary inability
to act, was discussed, though the invaria6ie
response to all the enquiries to whether the
matter was under discussion. was decllna-
ton to speak upon the subject.

Other than this he persisted in being non

4 Proclamation.

BRADFORD. VT, Sept. 3.Gov. Farnham has
issued the following proclamation
In this solemn hour when the life honored
Chief Magistrate of this republic hangs
trembling between time and eternity, it seems
fitting that the people of every state should
remember in whose hand are nations, rulers
and lives of men. and turn to God and ask
for that help and comfort which
we cannot receive at human
hands. Therefore, and in compliance with
the frequently expressed wishes ofthe people
and my own deep sense of propriety and nee
essity of so doing, hereby appoint Thurs
day, the eighth day of September instant
between the hour of 10 in the forenoon and
~ noon, as time for humiliation and prayer
by the people Of this state for the recovery Of
President Garfield from the wound he re-
ceived at the hand or an assassin.

THEQUEsTION or REMOVAL.
The President to be Taken to Long
Branch Monday or Tuesday.

WASHINGTON, Sept. ). Tn Monday or
Tuesday, the President will be conveyed to
Long Branch. The physicians in the case
this afternoon advised his family thae this
course was necessary. They do not regard
1t as absolutely safe, but, on the whole, as
safer than to keep him here. The President
himself is exceedingly anxious to go. His
mind is on it, and he referred to it several
times Yesterday and to-day. Mrs. Garfield
and Gen Swain are reluctant to see the ex-
pertinent tried, but, when told by DIR. Ham
ilton that his life depended upon it, they, o;
course, yielded to all objections
The situation seems up be that, al
though the President has held his own during
the past week, yet his recovery is improbable
If he remains here. 1t is possible that the
change may bring that stimulus which is es-
sential to the commencement of his recuper-
alton, and which it seems impossible for the
President to obtain lying on his sick bed in the
White House. The President will be taken
on a special train to Long Branch, and will
there occupy large and commodious private
villa, which was rendered for his use some
weeks ago. Secretary Lincoln will order
one or two companies of United States sol
diers from New York, to act as a guard on
the premises while the President remains
there. The President will be accompanied
by two or more of the physicians who now
attend him, and all the regular attendants.
No decision has been made as to members
of the cabinet going over, but very likely
they will all go to see the President safely
landed there, and will return to conduct the
business of the government. The cabinet
officers met at the state department this
morning. and the individual members are &C.
lively engaged in acting on arrangements for
the removal. Attorney General MacVeagh
was in charge of the business arrangements
with the Pennsylvania Railroad Company,
and remained at the White House until a late
hour this afternoon, sending dispatches to
Philadelphia and Long Branch on the subject.

OFFICIAL TElEGRAAS.


WAsHrxe1oN, Sept g.
The following was sent tonight TO Lowell,
Minister to London:
In the judgement of the surgeons, the Pres
i.lent has gained to-day. The change is not
great. bu; it is in the right direction and
against the adverse influence OF very op-
pressive day. His appetite is improving, and
his pulse, Temperature and respiration have
all been better than might has been expected
in such excessive heat. The President will
probably be removed to Long Branch early
next week to escape the malarious influence
of the Washington climate at this season.
