Lag tks Past ~ Hears.

says tn2t The president slept eonsidera-
be during the night, at one interval
enjoying nearly two hours Of undis-
turbed sleep. When awake the presi-
dent showed a disposition to talk, but
this was discouraged by the watchers.
Col. Rockwell thinks the sleep enjoyed
by the president last night was more
beneficial than his slumbers during any
Of the past three nights.
7 q. m. The physicians are greatly
encouraged this morning, and say there
is hope. Surgeon General Barnes still
maintains that the president can't sur
yiye. The anticipation of the physi-
clans that the presidents symptoms
were TRANSIENT, are justified. He has
slept more quietly and TRANQUILITY this
morning than since he was wounded.
He took lime water broth, milk and
beef tea, retaining it. From 6 to Q
p. m. is the most critical time. Posi-
bly, there will be q reaction tonight,
but it ia not likely to be permanent.
ga. m. The presidents condition is
decidedly more favorable; there has
been no vomiting since last evening at
8 O'Clock, and he has been able to re-
tain liquid nourishment. There is less
tympanites and no abdominal tender
ness, except in the wounded region.

the date of the last bulletin. The
physicians continue to regard the symp-

some extent yesterday and to-day
from the great heat, and the physicians
have this evening invited Prof. j. f.
