The latest dispatches from New Yor

The latest dispatches from New York
says the Baltimore Sun, indicate the hope
lessness of Gen. Grants condition under
the ravages of the painful disease which
he has been prostrated with. There was
crisis in his condition, beginning about
one o'clock on Sunday morning that came
very nearly to ending fatally. At that
time he was suddenly taken with such an
increase in the secretion from bis throat
as to be threatened with suffoeation, as in
his physical weakness he was unable to
eject it. The family was greatly alarmed,
and even the General himself believed that
he was dying. Messengers were sent off
post-haste for his physicians, who were
speedily in attendance, and ultimately by
a resort to vigorous specifics the trouble
was relieved, but it left him very weak
and he could only obtain sleep by a resort
to chloroform. At the consultation last
Monday, yielding to wish expressed by
Gen. Grant, it was decided that at least
one of the doctors should pass the night
in the house "until there is decided
change for tho better or until the end
comes" That end, it is apprehended,
may come much earlier than was antici-
pated. The whole country is now watch
ing with anxiety the progress of the NAL
ady under which Gen. Grant is suffering.
1t is one which at the best of times holds
out very little hope of permanent cure,
and the hope is feeble indeed when, as in
Gen. Grants case, it is accompanied with
great physical weakness and prostration.
There is profound sympathy everywhere
with Gen. Grant among all sorts and con.
ditions of people, and it is the deeper and
the more touching from the patient and
accomplishing way in which he bears his
sufferings.

In spie Of the more belligerant charac-
ter of he Ang glo-Ru.sian war news, the
grain market in Baltimore did not ad-
vance, but on the contrary, fell off trifle
during the latter part Of last week. This
was due to the uncertainty as to the pros
poets of war between the two countries
and disclnation to gamble on the pos
siblities. The market had taken a squirt
on Thursday afternoon, but failed to keep
up Oil Friday. There were various opin-
ions expressed by merchants and others
as to The chances OF war, some believing
England would not fight, some that Rus
sia would not fight, some that neither in
tended to fight and some that both would
fight. Gill Il Fisher, heavy grain dealers
of Baltimore, received u cablegram from
their Paris correspondents saying: Peace
certain there will be no war" The dull
ness of the grain market indicated that
but little attention was being paid to the
situation abroad at the present time.

1t was sail that when the Hon VIM.
Pinkney Whyte learned of the appoint
ment of Mr.. McLane to the French mission
and the succession of Mr. Lloyd to the
Governorship, he expressed grave apprs-
tensions that there would be an interreg-
mum in the gubernatorial office from the
will cease to be President of the Senate,
to the time of the meeting of the next Le-
gislaure, and regrets that such an omis-
sion should have been left in the constitu-
tion. 1t is difficult to see how any such
doubts should exist in the minds of our
great men. The constitution provides
that "in case Of any vacancy in the office
Of Governor during the recess OF tie lie
gislature, the President Of the Senate shall
discharge the duties Of sid office until y
Governor is elected as herein provided
for" Now here the constitution plainly

PORT TOBACCO:
FRIDAY Morning, April 8, 1885.

It is o somewhat curious coincidence
that Hon. Henry Lloyd should be the third
Governor of the Lloyd family in Maryland,
although but one Of the name, Edward
Lloyd, Governor in 1S09-11, was elected to
the position. The first Governor Lloyd,
Major General Lloyd, became like his de-
scendant Henry Lloyd, in 1909 exoflicio
Governor as President Of the Council, on
the death of the royal Governor Seymour.
He was Governor, therefore, just one hun
drsd years before the second Governor
Edwsrd Lloyd, elected in 1909. After a
lapse of three-quarters of centur: an
other member of the family nov assumes
the gubernatorial office.

our bodies are feebler, or the seasons are
more severe, or we take less care, for
deaths from pneumonia have increased
within a few years along the Atlantic
seaboard with alarming rapidity. The
record of the past winter has been a dark
one. The figures are those of an epidemic,
whether the disease can be contagious or
not. And days Of treacherous mildness in
