ton at this hour may be briefly stated to be a
race between exhaustion and vitality
The President Overcame the rigors which oc-
Cured i'm July. and it is thought possible that
he has sufficient strength to overcome the pres
ent crisis.
An opinion prevails that the rigor was occa-
stoned by the collection of pus i'm the track OF
the wound. but DIR. BoyntOn is of the opinion that
it is result of an abscess on the right lung.
In justice to DIR. Bliss it is proper to state that

102, he was not aware that the chill had oc-
CURED. The rigOr came on at exactly minutes
