press and people generally, outside o
New Orleans.

THE DOCTORS UNABLE TO DIsPEL THE FEELING
THAT DEATH Is IMMINENT.
About noon to-day Attorney General Mac

Effect Of the News.
AFEELING OF DESPAIR IN THIS CITY
There is no longer any hope existing in the
pubic mind for the recovery of the President
Even those persons here in Washington who
have hitherto maintained blind faith i'm a happy
issue OF this national sorrow. now abandon all
nope. The general expectation is that news of
the Presidents death will be received before
many hours. Even should he rally the impress
sion is that it would only be temporary. The belief
is that the remarkable vitality which has
SO long sustain ed the suffering President is
now exhausted, and that the heroic will-power
which grapped with death for so many weeks is
now undermined. 1t is useless to say there is
sorrow everywhere. Every heart is grieved
Inere is settled gloom over the whole city,
All personal interests are, for the time being,
forgotten. Business is almost at a stand-still.
and the nation awaits. with bated breath for
the sad tdings that are regarded as inevitable
The more favorable news contained i'm last nights
bulletin had to certain extent. revived the
peoples hope; but the news of this morning
quickly dissipated it. Dispatches received here
this morning from Attorney-General Macveagh
indicate that the Cabinet anticipate the worst In
the departments there was to-day very little
done, except to watch for the latest news Moth
ing was thought of except the President.
