MT. MCGREGoR, N. Y. June 25.-
At 1880 O'Clock last evening, when DR..
Shrsdy strolled down to Grants cottage,
where he was guest for the night, he
found Gen. Grant doing. The general
reused up, however, when the doctor en-
tered and spoke to him about certain
articles of diet, explaining that he did
so then lest he should forget to mention
1t before the doctor left. At IL O'Clock
the general was sleeping. He continued
to sleep until 2 O'Clock this morning,
when DE-. Shrady attended him and the
general again went to sleep. ATT O'Clock
he was aroused. DR.. Shrady was up at
O'Clock, and as he entered the sick
room, hat and cane In hand, the general
glanced up and asked, "Are you up
tor the day, doctor %
"Yes, and going out 10 enjoy the air
sne scenery" was answered.
81 am glad you do, but there are two
or three hours sleep yet this morning for
me-" added the general, and he settled
back on his pillow.
When doctored at 0 O'Clock it was be-
lieVed that the patient had slept eight
hours since retiring twelve hours before.

barring accidental complications slow
| comparing the condition of the patient
with what It was q month ago, the
| changes which have taken place can bt
appreciated. Taking this period of time
| into consideration II car
| be said that the swelling
under the angle of the lower jaw on the
| right side has increased and has grown
harder, more deeply fixed. 1t has shown
tendency to progress in direction
| downward and forward upon the RICH
side of the neck, the infiltrs
tion extending to the neigh
boring glanular structures, pam

nately they are not frequent nor severe
but they have q significance whichlcan
not be ignored. The liberation on TIT
right side OF the base of the tongue hs
become deeper and more irregular, al
not possibly increased. This i
the seat OF pain Occasionally, in swat
lowing, and when certain examinations

process on the right side OF the uvalis i
apparently quisent. although the new
portion of the margin of the palatal cur
tain Is showing q tendency to breal
down. The voice has been reduced to
whisper. due partly to inflammation. in

There is some improvement of the gen
eral strength and some loss in weight
although the appetite Is unchanged ant
the usual amount of nOurishment j
taken. The removal to Mt. McGrego
has SO far proved beneficial. 1t has on
abIedithe patient to recover lost grount
and this, in a measure, counterbslance'
the effects of his local maladY.
