NoNoU1TT, Mass, July 12.-There is
little if any notable change in Gen.
Sheridan's condition since the last re-
port. He passed rather a restless night,
but during the entire day he has been
very comfortable sleeping most of the
time His cough is loose and not roub-
lesome, and his respiration is still i'm
proving. His pulse is comparatively
good, with excellent tension, the hearts
action showing no tendency to failure.
On the whole it is thought his general
condition is perhaps slightly better. In
addition to his milk and crackers he has
partaken Of meat twice during the day.
