SAN RAFAEL, September 16!h-The FIRE is
still burning on Tataalpais, but with subdued
force. 1t isnow going towards the TOP Of the
mountain, and uniess the high wind which is
now blowing chaegss. all danger to Blythe
dale-Dr. Cushing's place-is over. The
same may be said Of the numerous ranches in
the vicinity The destruction of feed for
stock will be very great, and some of the
sufferers can i'll 5fford it. Among the mary
incidents that occurred while the fire was
raging at Corte MADEIRA is one that
is worthy ef mention. The house
of Widow Tierney, who IS blind, caught FIRE.
Her son. youug man of Is, was away,
scarcely able 60 walk, assisting the neighbors.
He happened to glance over in the direction
Of his home, aod realizing the fact that his
mother was alone, hobbIed back to the house
in time to extiuguish the FIRE, and led bis
mother out to place OF safety. This should
be terrible warning to persons who ara in
the habit of burning brush TO clear eff their
places during the summer months. Il seems
to be the general ooinion that the next Legis-
lature should pass an Act making it felony
for doing SO.

Continued Apprehension The Cabinet
Notified.

LONG BRANCH, Septern Der 10th. Attorney
General MacVeaeh tonight notified the
members of the Cabinet OF the Presidents
condition. The telegram was substantially
the same as that sent to Lowell. The Cabi-
net are expected at Elberon tomorrow. 1t
is reported that the Attorney General ex-
pressed himself as extremely anxious about
the Presidents condition, .but," said he,
'.there is in fact nothing peculiarly alarming
in the symptoms beyond the extreme weak
ness which prevails. Ups and downs
wi be liable to occur from the poison
Gus condition of his blood, and the chances
are that the case will be very tedious and
apprehensive one, remaining about as now for
sometime, and about all that can be done is
to watch and wait" The Attorney General
thinks he could not stand another relapse
caused by serious complications.
GLOOMY STATEMENT OF BLISS.
DR.. Bliss said tonight: "Thers has been
very little if any change. The discharge from
the wound tonight is no worse than this
morning, and can't he said to be bet
ter. A olot of blood came away
with the pus tonight, which may have col.
ored it some. There was febrile rise from
IL till 2, when the President was Compare
lively comfortable. The pulse did not vary
more than two or thres beats per minute.
At o'clock. when we were preparing the
evening bulletin, another rise occurred, which
still continues, SO what it will amount
to, or how serious it will be, Gag
not now be predicted. The President is
troubled somewhat in his mind, but
il you ask him question he will answer il. .
As an instance of his cleverDess of mind. the
doctor illustrated how he took the evening
temperature. and said he remarked to Colonel
Swain, when the thermometer had been
Standing nine minutes, that he could not get
the temperature above the normal range.
Whereupon the President said: "Well, sir
you have only one minute more" How do
you know that? inquired the doctor. The
President pointed to the clock. and indicated
that he had his mind concentrated upon the
time the doctor commenced taking the tenn
perature, and had followed the minutes cor
rectly. The doctor said that while be was
with the President to-day he made use of an
expression which seemed to indicate that his
mind was wandering a little. and DIR.
Hamilton also states this evening that he
heard such remark when he was with the
President. The President complains at times
