MRS. GRANTS CONDITION.
Reports which have been sent out IN
regard to the condition Of Mrs. Grant are
unduly alarming. She expects to accom-.
pany the remains to Albany, and no
reason is known to the family why
she should not do so. Mrs. Grant
had net I'LL the last days
become convinced that no remarkable
cure was to. be effected in the Generals
case, as she had believed, and when his
death occurred the effect Of disappointed
hope, combined with the natural
shock OF her bereavement produced
reaction from which she has
not yet recovered so as to enable her to
mingle as freely with the family es before
the Generals demise. She is not confined
to her bed; on the contrary, she yesterday
felt that she would like to descend
to the cottage parlor and view the
remains. From this purpose, however,
Mrs. Grant was dissuaded by those who
felt that the experience would further
trouble and depress her. She cannot be
said to be sick nor absolutely prostrated.
There has been a reaction and no unususl
prostration from the cause stated has fol.

Now it is said that Central Park wasnot

was so pressed upon them by the Msyor

soldier ought to sleep at the Capital which

years as President. His old comrades
outside Of New York seemto be unani-
