subversive of free ballOt-that the en-
franchisement of the voter must not de-
pend upon conditions dictated by private
individuals.
4. That public safety and common
Justice alike demand free education, and
that the tree school system should be
placed on an enduring and independent
basis, and that no temporary obligation
of the State should preeede the same at
the public treasury.
5. That the present rate and amount

es of Government, and pay the interest
on the public debt when properly read
justed, and we favor resisting with the
whole. power of the party
any effort to increase taxation, directly
or indirectly.
6. That the present effort to coerce n
Virginia Senator to violate the will of
the people who elected him is blow ut
State rights, an attack on the freedom of
Senatorial representation, and damaging
to Southern people. That the independ-
emf course of Senator Malone in the
United States Senate has been most pru-
dent, patriotic and manly, and we here
by pledge to him our support.

awaiting them-flling the Park. the surround

PRODUCTION Welcome TO the grand Germania
Band Excursion to Watkins Glen to-day
Little need be reported of the musical per-
formance, for nearly the whole town and not
few from the surrounding neighborhoods,
were there to hear it. Full. rich harmony,
with either spirited or legato movements,
readily taken under the accurate conductor
ship OF Mr.. WALKER, made the concert in
tensely interesting to the attentive crowd
The second number was grand and in some
passages thrilling. The Xylophone was fine
and skillful performance, was delicately nc
cOmpanied by the band, was the novelty and
favorite OF the evening. 1t was persistently
encored and repeated entire.
The last number, happily named the Germa-
mia waltz, pleasantly dismissed the immense
and gratifed audience. Those who cannot
join the excursion parry to-day are unioru-
nate; those VINO can, will thank their lucky
stars and Co.

The Presidents Condition.

The news from Washington this morn
ing is of a gloomy nature. The President
perceptibly failed yesterday and his death
may be expected any moment.
OFFICIAL BULLETINS.
8 80 A. NJ.
The President slept most of the night.
He has taken liquid food in sufficient
quantities so that enemata have not been
resumed. The parotid gland remains
the same. His general condition is much
the same as yesterday. Pulse, LOG; tenn
perature, 98.5; respiration, 18.
~ 80, p. NJ.
Since the issue of the morning bulletin
rise in the Presidents temperature SIM
liar to that which occurred yesterday
morning has been observed. From the
incision in the parotid gland few drops
of pus were discharged this morning.
The swelling remains the same. In 9TH
er respects his condition remains un.
changed. Pulse, 112; temperature, 99.2;
respiration, 49,
6 80, p NJ
There has been little change in the Pres
ident'S condition since the noon bulletin
was issued The frequency of his pulse
is now the same as then, his temperature
has risen somewhat but is not so high as
yesterday evening. There has been
slight discharge of pus during the day,
from the inciSiOn in the parotld swelling,
but in is not diminishing in size. No un-
favorable change has been observed in
the condition of the wound. He takes by
the mouth sufficient supply of liquid
food. At present his pulse is 1l2; tenn
perature, 99.8; respiration, 10.
Blaine cabled Lowell at D. M, as fol-
lows: The President has lost ground TO-
day. Some of the symptoms this after
noon and evening are of the gravest char
acter. The condition of the swollen gland,
the pulse and temperature, suggest seri-
Gus and alarming complications. His
mind at intervals has been somewhat be-
clouded and wandering. His strength
fails, but he still swallows liquid food Of
a nourishing character. On this one fact
