Bliss said that the Presidents condition is
highly satisfactory, aud that he is making
very favorable progress in every way. The
parotid swelling has been reduced two
thirds Of its maximum size, and is steadily
diminishing. The patient continues to take
food well, and has made slight gain in
strength. The question Oh his removal from
the Executive Mansion is again being seri-
ously considered. The President himself
wishes to 90 to Mentor, but, although he
will, doubtless, be taken there eVentu-
ally, his first removal will be to
a shorter distance. 1t will take place at the
earliest possible moment. The patients
pulse at noon went down to 95 for the first
time since the S-h of August, aud is still
respondingly favorable.
MORE FAVORABLE SIGNS.

better day than for some time past. He has
taken his food with an increased relish, and

found its way into the mouth,
which it did not do this morning, showing
that an opening into the mouth has spOnta-
neously occurred. The abscess is dis
charging freely, aud the swelling continues
to diminish. There is some increase in the
discharge of pus from the wound. Pulse
109, temperature 9S respiration Is.
