THE PRESIDENTS CONDITION.

For the past several days, according 10 the
bulletins of the attending physicians, the Pres
ident's condition has not changed materially
The usual rate of pulsation, temperature and
respiration has been reported, there being no
permanent change in either Though his
pulse was more rapid at one time, one of the
physicians pronounced it "better." The usu
al statement is also made that he has taken
nourishment by the mouth, which his stomach
retained, and he has not been troubled with
gastric irritation.
At 6 o'clock on Tuesday morning, he was
removed by railroad from the White Honse to
Long Branch, every possible precaution hav
ing been taken to render the journey easy and
safe to the patient. With his safe arrival at
Long Branch, it is thought his chances of re-
covery will be far better than in the Presiden
tial mansion, which, it is claimed, is infected
with malaria emsnating from the Potomac
flats. The following special dispatch to the
ENQUIRER is the latest intelligence we have
LONG BRANCH, September 1.-THE Presi'
dent arrived here at 10 P. M. yesterday
He stood the journey very we'll, and is doing
well-in fact, much better than was expected
DEAL HONESTLY.
The Abbeville Banner publishes the sub
Joined plea for honest dealing, which has the
ring of the true metal about it. If there are
any persons in York county, who are disposed
to shirk the payment of their honest debts
we commend the article to their consideration
In the present condition of affairs, the dispo
sition of creditors is to carefully watch the
conduct of debtors and note their unwil
lingness or willingness to meet, to the extent
of their ability, their honest obligations
Therefore, 60 to your creditors and make al
honest showing, pay them all you can, and i
you should require indulgence, it is quite
likely you will get it, and at the same time
place yourself in a condition to ask favors ir
the future Here is the article from the
Banner:
A poor mans credit is of inestimable value
to him, and without it he can do but little
A bag of cotton is OF little moment in a life
time. Act honestly. Surrender all that you
have promised, and more, too, if necessary
Stand to your merchant in this extremity
and even if he is unable to help you again
your honest act will inspire confidence in an
other, who will appreciate the worthy act OF
your part, and will be ready to hel p you wher
help is needed. With US "all is lost save
basu"u let i. us pot now LOSE that 1T ou
are undone. Let no man who deserts hi
crop, or leaves it for the merchant to gather
again hold up his head or lay claim to hon
esty. Let the poor men Of this county no
ruin their credit. 1t is bad policy, to say
nothing of bad principles. The dishonest &C
tion of every man will be noted, and in after
years the dishonest man will be brought te
shame, while the man who withstands the
present temptation has forever established ar
honorable record, of which his children's
children may well be proud. In country
like this no industrious, honest man will e
hungry, even though he be penniless, mol
will the seed of the righteous suffer for food
Let the most discouraged citizen gather his
crop and surrender it. Then he must work
little more industriously, live little more
economically, aud encourge the hope which
prompts US to make the efforts which finally
secure competency. Let DO man sacrifice
his honor, or give up to disgrace himself and
his children for the sake of store bill.
