An Anxious Mother.

CLEVELAND, ONO, August 27.-
President Gaifelds aged mother is
opping with neiee in Hiram, four
miles from Garrettsville. She re-
ceives messages from Washington,
ana spends much of the time at the
front door of the house, anxiously
watching for the messenger who
brings her dispatches. She is bowed
down with grief, sleeps but little,
and that in short maps, and is much
agltated by tear for the worst, yet
tenaciously clings o hope.
President Hinsdale telegraphs to
the Herald late to>night from Hiram,
that Mother Garfield has been stop
ping for two weeks there at
the home of Mrs. Clapp, her
neice, Her sister, Mrs. Boynton,
au1 Mrs. DR.. Boynton, are at the
same place. He states: Mother
Garhelds strength holds up beyond
what could be reasonably expected
and IN this she shows the wonderful
vitality and staying qualities of her
race. AS respects her sons reeov-
cry hope is dead in her heart, and
the light Of her life is gone out. Oc-
caslonaliy she shows CLEANS of cor
adence' but this is only the rebound
from excitement and depression.
No order or counsel respecting
ner has been received from Wash
lnLgton, and she will remain where
she Is, where all is done for her that
mortals can do"

WIrH the news presented this
morning, our hopes have revived
and are buoyant. The positive i'm
provement in the Presidents case
still continues. He takes additional
nourishment, including small por-
ton of solid food, without any indi-
cation of unfavorable results. His
voice, pulse and general appearance
have improved. The granulations in
the wound are healthy. The swell
ling of the parotid gland is subsiding
as healthy suppuration goes on.
We cannot Express the gratifica-
ton which we, in common with the
readers OF the CHRONICLE, feel over
the glorious change It seems al
most too good to be true But it is
more than a pleasant dream. It is
reality We are very hopeful that
the President, as DR.. Bliss says, will
soon enter upon the plane of con.
vaIescence. Let us thank God and
take courage,

Steamboat Accident.

New York, August 29.-The steam
boat State of New York, plying be-
tween Hartford and New York, which
left Hartford at 4 o'clock on Sunday
afternoon, struck on a rock near
Goodspeed's Landing, halfway bes
tween Saybrook Point and Hartford,
about 8 o'clock last night, and was
immediately run ashore, where sue
now lays, with her stern under water.
No pane ensued, and no lives were
lost. Her passenger list could not
be ascertained.
A special from Goodspeed Station,
Conn, gives the following particu :
lars:
While steaming quietly down the
river she had to curve and make way
for schooner. The stem of the
boat collided with rock and water
began to pour in. The utmost con
fusion prevailed, as many were in
the state rooms and emerged in their
night clothe~. Three persons, man,
wife and child, Went overheard in
the excitement, but were saved. The
water was over the main deck in less
than five minutes The pumps were
started without avail. The passen
gers We're ordered to the upper
deck. Oriers were given to run the
boat ashore and justas it reached the
bank the water gu nched the fires.
The ferry boat between Goodspeed
and the opposite side of the river
came at once to the rescue and con
veyed the passengers to the Gilston
House, III Goodspeed, where they
spent the light with limited accom-
modations.
! The steamer Granite State in re-
turning from an excursion to
Marthas Vineyard reached Good
speed about 4 O'Clock this morning
and furnished aid and shelter.
The City of Hartford arrived at 7
a. NJ, and the passengers were for
warded to their destinations by the
Granite State and train. Almost
all the passengers on the sunken boat
have lost their baggage, some of it
being submerged and the rest left or
lost in the confusion. The baggage
room is completely under water
Baggage-master Sidney Tellen, is
| thought to be lost. When last seen,
he was up to his waist i'll water, and
is probably in the room. The clerk
cannot give the number of pass
engers ON board, but they are esti-
mated at 29O. The papers are lost.
The loss is from $4,000 to $4,000,
and is covered by the Marine insur
ance.

THE FIRE FIEND.
Doings of the Destructive Element at
Various Points.
Barn Burned in Blount County.

Barn Burned in Blount County.
Mr. VIM Goddard, who lives near Ellijoy,
Blount County, met with quite disastrous
loss last Sunday morning, in the burning of
his barn. The fire occurred about O'Clock
in the morning, and Mr.. Goddards loss
amounts to about $500, and there was no
insurance A good barn and crib, 165
bushels of wheat, 60 loads of hay, large
amount of straw, mower, wagon and
other implements, and two fine horses
worth 5000 each, and good mule, were
consumed in the flames. How the fire
originated is not known. Neither Mr. God
dard nor his son Will, upon whom the loss
falls most heavily, know of any one who
harbors any ill-feelings toward them, while
it is equally unexplainable as to how the fire
could have been accidental, as no fire had
been near the barn.
STORE AND CONTENTS BURNED.
From FL. N. Hubbs, Esq, of Union
County, who was in the city yesterday, we
learn of destructive fire, which destroyed
the store and contents belonging to HI. N.
Hubbs & Son, at Cedar Ford, Union
County, on the night of Wednesday, August
"a. The house was good, substantial
building, and they had stock of
goods valued at about $1,000. The
fire was discovered about / o'clock in
the night, but had gained too great head
way to be extinguished. The oil tank and a
pair of floor scales were the only articles
saved. Esquire Hubbs' son and partner in
his effort to get out the oil tank, ran mar
row risk and burned himself very badly.
They had the store insured but were not
certain whether the policy had expired or
not AS to the origin of the fire nothing is
known, but it is supposed to have been in
cendiary.
KNOXVILLE AND OHIO RAILROAD TUNNEL ON
FIRE.
Sometime during the early forenoon yes
terday, the tunnel on the X. & o. Railroad,
about mile this side of Careyville, was
found to be on fire on the inside, sup
posed to have caught from the
engine of the passenger train which
had just passed through. The
authorities of the East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia Railroad were notified by tele-
graph of the fact and made arrangements
with the city fire department, and on yester-
day evenings train the hand engine Niagara,
No. 8, with a suficiency of hose, was iaken
to the scene, in charge of Officer Lewis
Ruckart, of ahe police force, who
is an experienced fireman.

peculiarly sad affection. He has beer
suffering for short time with something
like sore eyes, supposed to have been
brought on by over-work at his books after
night, by gas light, and SO acute and intense
has been the suffering that one of his
eyes seems entirely out, and the other is
badly impaired. During his suffering, Will
has had every attention by his employers,
fsllow employees and others, and has had the
heartfelt sympathy of host of friends, for
he is one of the best of fellows, and uni

the city. He left yesterday evening, in
