THE PRESIDENT.
His Condition Tuesday Afternoon.

July 12.-Morning report says the
fever which the President suffered yes
terday evening has abated.
The following bulletin was sent to
the cabinet officers by the executive
secretary this morning: "The unfavor-
able symptoms which made their ap-
pearance yesterday afternoon have sub
sided. The President passed a very
comfortable, restful night and this
morning his pulse is 96 and tempera-
ture 90 6-1o This would seem to in
dicate that the increased pulse and
temperature oflast evening was merely
4 temporary fluctlation due, as the sur
geons supposed at the time, to some
momentary tax on the nervous system
rather than to any unfavorable change
in his condition.
The ventilator in use is still doing the
work to entire satisfaction keeping the
room cool. The President says he feels
very tired but makes no other allusion
to his fever Of yesterday. At his re-
quest his boys, Harry and James, have
resumed their studies. Mrs. Garfield
receives numerous. letters from little
who can only print their letters.
All are full of sweet sympathy and are
duly appreciated, She will take Z drive
to-day.

CLEVELAND, O., July 9.-The demo

adopted the following offered by Hon
X. ?. Spauldins:
Resolved by the democratic con.
vention on Cuyuhoga county on the
9th day OF July, 1881, assembled at
Cleveland, that, looking upon Jas. A.
Garfield as the constitutional president
and chief executive officer OF the Unit.
ed States otAmerica. we regard the
recent attempt to deprive him of his
life as 4 crime of the most heinous
character; that the president be assured
OF our deepest sympathy with himself
and his family in this afiiiction and dis
pensation, and that we rejoice to know
that under kind providence the aim
of the assassin is likely to be discounted;
that we recommend TO congress the en-
actment of more stringent measures for
the protection of the persons of our
executive officers at the seat of govern
ment.

DR.. Tanner, whose long fast caused
so much comment a few months since
has been eclipsed. The following is
the telegraphic account of the close of
the forty-fve days fast, just concluded
at Chicago:
Griscom passed very restless night
and when examined this morning his
pulse was found at &c. "A little before
noon, attendedby about 40 physicians,
ne went to the stage of the Olympic
Theater, where table had been elabor-
ately set for his first meal in forty-tive
days. About a thousand persons oc-
cupied the parquette and balconies to
witness the breaking OF the fast. Girls
com was introduced BY DR.. w. X. Har-
iron, who gave personal and profess
ional assurance that the fast had been
bona fide in every respect. Grlscom
responded briefly, but in a voice suf-
ficiently full and strong to be plainly
heard all over the house. He gave a
brief review OF the Tanner fast and
made comparisons between his under
taking AID that of the former. He be-
lieved fasting beneficial and thoroughly
consistent, he assured them. He then
placed himself at the table, which was
set in the middle of the stage and boun-
tifully set with strawberries, milk toast,
peaches. bread, cheese and jellies. He
broke his fast by slowly drinking glass
of rich milk. This he followed with
second, pleasantly conversing with the
audience. He slowly ate two slices of
milk toast and drank a cup of coffee,
He then ate a large saucer of ripe
Strawberries, covering them with sugar.
The only effect of the food was to induce
a full feeling in his head. He said the
food tasted very good, but he was not
suffering from hunger. The first
were loudly cheered. His
dinner lasted about an hour.

Congress May be Convened.

NEW York, July THE Posts
Washington special says: 1t is said
on good authority that a proclamation
convening congress in special session
was propagated yesterday or earlier
and signed by the president. to be is
sued in the event of his illness taking
an unfavorable and necessarily fatal
turn. The object of this action, which
it is said has been taken with the ap-
proval of the cabinet and Vice-Presi-
dent Arthur is to provide against any
possible contingency. The session
would be called to elect a president OF
thesenate pro tenn and speaker of
thehouse OF representatives. and no
miscellaneous business would be likely
to be considered.

SENTIMENT.
The Feeling Throughout Europe.

LONDON, July 6.-Anxiety concern.
ing President Garfield continues una
hated. II is the unanimous testimony
ofthe Americans here that the person
al feeling among the English people
aroused by the shooting Of the Presi.
dent is greater than that evoked by
any foreign event Of recent years.
Dispatches from Berlin say that the
press has devoted as much attention
to the attempt on Garfeld's life as it
did to the murder of the Car. The
Germans have had too much painful
experience of the kind not to feel deep
sympathy with the almost semi-flial
nation. kilograms Of sympathy and
inquiry continua to pour IN on United
States Minister White, and the whole
time of the legation is occupied i'll re-
plying to them and seeing anxious vlsl-
tors. In the American COLONY, which
never fails to celebrate independence
Day, there has been nothing to remind
one Of the festival except the stars and
stripes floating languidly over the lie
sation and consulate, and it is univer
sally hoped the banner will not hive to
be run up at half mast. The latest
kilograms from Washington are eager
" awaited, and all comments of the
press may be reduced to a detestation
of the crime and the culpable system
which produced it.
The Germania, (clericaD fears that
if Garfield again returns to power the
republic will have to experience bitter
conflicts before the system of reforms
which Garfield had so courageously
begun is effectively carried out.
The Boergen Courier denounces the
place-hunting which forms
a cancer in the existence of the great
republic.

On the Road to Recovery.

WAsHlNGToN, July l3-The PreSi-
dent is better to-day than ever before
since he was shot. DR.. Bliss says there
are marked signs of improvement and
that the pulse and temperature are
nearly normal. The President ate
some woodcock and toast to-day in ad
di;Ion to his regular diet OF milk aud
rum. Dr. Bliss says the president Is
now on the road to steady. but nee
eSsarily slow improvement. This Is the
twelfth day since the President was
shot and the day on which the surgeons
say the turn in such wounds occurs.
The attending surgeons say that the
indications to-day are of 4 change for
the better. The l o'clock bulletin
shows the improved condition OF the
president continues notwithstanding
the very hot weather. The fever is
lower than on the middle of any day
recently. The pulse is below 100 and
the temperature is scarcely more than
100. The surgeons believe that the IN
crease of fever this evening will be very
slight.

DIR. Hamilton's Opinion.

NEw YoEx, July s.-Dr. Hamilton
says if President tiartield's physicians
are furnished with conclusive proof
that his liver is injured they shall be
forced to consider the case as having
taken an aspect of additional gravity.
Although the wound inflicted on the
liver would increase the presidents
danger very much, it would not neces-
sarlly kill him. People have frequently
recovered after having been shot
through the liver. While admitting
the presidents symptoms most encour-
aging, DR.. Hamilton SAYS his recovery
could only be positively determined
after weeks and perhaps months of
careful watching.
