LONG BRANCH, Sept. La ~ r. M.
To-day has been favorable through
out, according to the attending sur
peons, and the President 10 pro-
nounced again on the road to re-
covery. Much surprise and COM
ment is occasioned by the sudden
fluctuations of the President, but
the surgeons insist that this is to
be expected. II the weather af-
fects him in any degree, this has
certainly been good day, as the
air has been pure and comparative
Iy dry. According to the state
ment of the attending surgeons,
his pulse went from ITO at noon to
100 at the evening dressing, and
his temperature from SO q at noon
to 98.6o in the evening, showing
that there was comparatively 30
fever at 6 this evening. The Csbi-
net early received assurances that
there was no immediate danger
and that the threatened relapse has
apparently passed away, anu with
the exception of Attorney General
MacVeagh and Secretary Kirk
wood, the former remaining here
and the latter being In Washing
ton, they left at different hours for
New York, whence they go direct
to the White Mountains for few
days.

MaoVeagh TO Lowell: In the ab-
sence of Blaine, the attending ply
sician has requested me to inform
you of the Presidents condition.
He has during the day eaten sutfi-
cient food with relish, and en-
joyed at intervals refreshing
sleep. His wound and the iDcIs-
ions made by the surgeons look
better. The parotid gland has
ceased suppuratiOD, and may be
considered substantially well. He
has exhibited more than the usual
Cheerfulness of spirits. Tempera-
ture aud respiration now normal,
and the pulse is less frequent and
drmer than at the same hour last
evening. Notwithstanding these
favorable symptoms, the lung will
continue to be q source of anxiety
for days to come.
