1855 A. M.-The continuous fever which
has been the most marked feature of the
Presidents case during the past two or
three days subsidized during the night, and
the patients temperature this morning
was normal for the first time since Sum
day. The breaking of the fever was fol-
lowed by a profuse perspiration, and the
rather high pulse shown by the morning
bulletin is probably due to the weakness
resulting thereirom. The discharge of pus
at the morning dressing was unusually
copious, showing that the wound is now
perfectly and thoroughly drained. The
drainage tube was put in again and the
wound washed out with a weak solution of
carbolic acid and water. Since the dress
ing the patient has taken nourishment in
the shape of milk and lime water. and at
this hour he is quiet and comfortable. The
surgeons report that he is doing well.
1880 P. M.-The President is getting
through the day in a very satisfactory
manner. He has asked for, and taken q
mall quantity of food in addition to the
liquid nourishment allowed him. At the
morning dressing the discharge Of pus
through the new opening was more free
than at any previous time. It's character
was good, and the wound looks well. His
temperature and respiration continues
within the normal range, though the de-
bility following the operation is still
shown by the frequency Of the pulse. At
present his pulse is ITO; temperature, $50;
respiration, 10.

WASHINGTON, Aug. I0-There is con
siderable excitement here to-day about the
President. His pulse at l O'Clock was ITO,
and the surgeons are somewhat uneasy.
The fever has not receded as fast as they
had hoped, but the doctors still say they
count on his recovery. Secretary Blaine
sent the following to Minister Lowell at /
p. NJ: The Presidents condition has not
essentially changed since the morning re-
port. AT loon be signed an important
public document, to which his signature
was indispensable. with a firm hand.
A Lively Time Anticipated.
LYNcHBURG Val August All the
Republican leaders in the State are here to
attend the Republican State Convention.
OA4a Al6A HAS III VLC hafi4
and the Malone Republicans, anticipating
a split, hare secured another. 1t is thought
that II the Straightouts make things too
warm the Coalitionists will retire to their
own hall. Mahone's partissns have the
greatest number of influential Republicans,
including the Government officers. All the
indications favor a split. There is every
reason to believe that Wickham's friends
will nominate a ticket. This Republican
-
monious ever held in the State. Every
county is represented, and there are many
contestants. Secretary Brooks. of the State
Central Committee, claims 131 out of the
~ delegates are for a coalition. The
Straightouts are equally confident. The
city is excited. There will surely be a d.
vision. Two open-air meetings are being
held tonight.
blaine on the Hartmann Case.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1Q.-Henry. Wehle,
Hartmann's attorney in New York, having
written to Secretary Blaine and alluded to
Mr.. Hills talk about extraditing Hart
mann to Russia. and having asked that
Secretary Blaine assure him Of the protec-
ton OF the Government. Blaine replies
that it is an unparalleled request and ut
terly improper. He cannot without a full
examination of the many bearings of the
case pass judgment. Itwould be as proper
to solicit or interrogate the Supreme Court,
and he sees no reason why Mr.. Hartmann
should be singled out from the half million
who landed here this year for the protec-
ton of the Government. Mr.. Hills views
are those of a private individual, and do
not figure in the case as an official declara-
ton.
Friendless Guiteau.
WASHINGTON, August 10.-Singularly
enough, not a friendly person has called on
Guiteau since his five weeks incarceration.
He has never made a friend in the city,
and he has received no proffer of counsel
or aid. Such absolute restitution of
friends is unprecedented, even among the
lowest criminals. He has never sent for
anybody. He intended and arranged to be
driven to Jail after the shooting, and feels
comfortable with soldiers guarding him.
IL is apparent that he never expected TO
suffer for the crime, Believing that he did
a duty and was making room for a more
just man. He believed the people would
see the deed in his light.
"A Good One on John BnlI.
CHICAGO, August 10.-P. W. Grove of
Pennsylvania, who is here, makes the
statement that the Internal machines,
about which so much has been said, cost
just $40 for the entire lot, and that the
scheme Of sending them to England was
q put up job by which a member of the
United Irishmen secured a reward of
$40, 900, having notified the British Consul
in New York OF the shipment. The SlO.-
900 obtained from the British Government
has gone into the Irish fund TO be used
against Great Britain. Vernon Harcourt,
Home Secretary, is said to have acknowl-
edged this statement Of Grove TO be a fact.
Chinese students Going Home.
CHICAGO, August 10.-The Chinese stu
dents, on their way from Hartford home,
arrived to-day. They say they have COM
pleted the studies for which they were
sent. One reason they give for being
summoned home is that the Governments
military and naval academies are closed to
them. As Germany allows them ~to'enter
her institutions, China will probably send
her students thither hereafter and to Eng
land. They state that non OF their party
have changed faith in America. They were
we'll dressed, spoke English we'll, and were
a creditable looking set OF men.
The Repudiationists.
L~YScHBuRa (Va.), August 10.-The Co.
alitionists and s~traight-out Republicans
have refused to meet together and are now
separate meetings with nearly
equal numbers. The Straight-outs are or.
DERBY and determined, and the Coalitionists
aud ~wrangling. A ticket for
State officers will be nominated by the
straight-outs. The other wing viii en-
