At half past niue Secretary Blaine
sent the following despatch to Minister

To LOWELL, Minister, London -
"The President continues to do well
In his eating ard digestion, and the
swollen gland steadily improves; but in
the past Lwenty-four hours he has made
no substantial progress in his general
condition. In The judgme Mt Of bis ply

have shown marked increase over the

been exceedingly warm and sultry, and
this may account In part for the adverse

THE PRESIDENTS CONDITION.
The Doctor stated that the swelling
of the gland had subsidized to such an
extent that it was now inconsiderable
that there was NJ trouble with the
mouth to-day bot once, when few
drops OF water percolated into the
month in washing the gland, but there
was little or no pus. He said the Presi.
dent took with relish to-day fair quanti-
ties OF bouilon, milk toast, broiled
chicken, mild Cruel and chewed q little
piece of beef, and the President said
tha. everything tasted well to him. He
said that the physicians proposed giving
him tomorrow an ortolan, or reed biro,
finely mlnced, which, it was thought,
would stimulate the appetite somewhat
He said the stimulating enemata were
still administered every SIX hours.
COUNCIL ON REMOVAL.
DR.. Agnew will arrive here to-mor-
rom for the purpose of participating in
the special council of the attending
physicians, called TO decide the ques-
tion of the removal of the President
1t is expected that the doctors will
have quite an animated session, as
they are divided on the question OF To-
cation. Some favor the Soldiers
Home, out side of this city, some
think well of Long Branch as the
place for recuperation, and the Talla-
poosa has its friends. In face of this
division of opinion it is not improbable
that there will be deadlock that will
require an all night session to decide.
DIR. Bliss will make tour of inspection
of the Tallapoosa tomorrow. The
Long Branch trip will no doubt be
finally agreed upon. That the Presl-
dent must be moved from the White
House is imperatively demanded.
ARRIVAL OF THE TALLAPoosA.
The Tallapoosa, upon which 1t il
proposed TO take the President for q
sea voyage, arrived at the Navy Yard
this afternoon at half-past two O'Clock
four days out from New York. She
was delayed on account of being or
dered to convey the torpedo boat
Alarm to Washington, and as the lat
