Mt MCGREGoH, n. Y, June 30
To-day 1t has been two weeks since Gen.
Grant was moved from New York. DR..
Douglas was asked to review the fort
night Gen. Grant has passed upon the
the mountains, and said: "His life has
been prolonged by the invigoratinR air
here instead of the great heat of New
York City. The disease has progressed
in 8 natural way, but as have said be-
general was likely to die at New York.
Had he remained there instead of com.
ing here, he would in all human proba-
bility have expired before this. He Is
each day less strong, and though
the step from day to day is scarcely per
ceptible the aggregate Of the fourteen
days becomes noticeable. Two weeks
ago Gen. Grant lett the city. II he was
10 New York to-day he could not be
moved here, as his strength is not equal
to such journey. Now, if you ask me
when the end will probably be, viii
say that / cannot tell. No one can tell.
He grows weaker and weaker and at last
the point of exhaustion will be reached
That is all and no one can say when
that shall be-" Referring to the local
condition DR.. Douglas said the throat
and mouth were unusually clear, the re-
suit of quiet and close attention during
the two days past, but when this
is said il must be remembered that the
tongue Is so swollen as to render srticu-
lation difficult and thorough examina-
ton impossible. Loss of voice Is due
merely to Inflammation of the vocal
cords and partly 10 lsssitude and relsxa-
ton of the prrts The glandular swelling
is decreased, but where the hand
is passed over the nodoeities
or canceIous knottings of the glands
they are not abated but becoming hard
er constantly. The weakness of the
patient Is now evident in the lack of
ability and desire to walk to the cottage
piazza as he did ten days ago.
There is disposition on the generals
part to econOmize his strength and there
is a lesseued interest in his literary
work. the doctor reports that the gen
eral had fairly good night and gained
considerable sleep He is remaining in
his room this morning, the air being
raw and chilly. Fires blaze in the
cottage and at the hotel.

General Grant,

MT. MCGREGoR, N. Y, July l.
Between 8 O'Clock last night and 8
O'Clock to-day Gen. Grant, according to
DIR. Douglas, slept about nine hours.
On the same authority the patient slept
profoundly after midnight, and during
the early morning hours there was lit
tie coughing or effort To clear the throat.
The physician was scarcely called upon
to treat the effected parts during the
night. A minimum of morphine is be-
ing givtn and that is divided. II the
first half not only neuIralIzes the pain,
but induces sleep the second half is not
given. Although five or six drops of
morphine have been given the patient
nightly for many weeks he has not
grown in the least to crave
it, and he now regards
anodyne only as a means TO an end. In
the early part of his severe illness Gen
Grants lowest ebb seemed to be reached
nightly between and O'Clock, while
now if one period of the twenty-four
hours is more depressing than s1other
it falls between / and O'Clock in theaf-
ternoon The periods are marked by what
the gent raj designates as a ''stufy feel
ing of the throat and affected parts. Last
evening, however, and again this morn
ing he remarked lessened Stiffness of
the tongue. II seems more plant and
less heat aud tense when efforts are
made to move or to use 1t. The morn
ing opened closely. The tcmperture was

chilly. 1he sick man is spending the
mo. ning at ease in his room without be
ing dressed.
