Yankee custom and Christmas Day was

The President continued TO improve
until Saturday when high fever set in
followed by chill. which plainly marked
a crisis ia his condition. The consulting
physicians from New York aud Philadel-
phia we're summoned at once aud Il was
decided that the disturbance WAS caused
by formation Of pus at some pon. N the
wound which could best be reached by
surgical operation. An inoision wa' made
about three inches below the wound which
struck the pus cavity and brought relief,
but the patient has had more or less fever
every day since, and it is evident that
there is sill danger that he may not re-
cover. From the examination made It is
found that the bali fractured the rib and
then turned sharply downwards instead OF
going straight on. and probably did not
strike the liver at all. The latest reports
to-day, Wednesday, are more favorable
and his condition is again improving.
