bulletins is entirely illusory. Last night left the

o'clock he was officially stated to be enjoying rest
ful sleep at a time when paroxysms OF stertorous
paspincs were plainly audible on the sidewalk IN
front Of his house at intervals OF every two or three
minutes. The charitable explanation is that the
bnlletin dated / a. m which gave out this state
ment was prepared some time in advance of its
issuance.
Az 4:40 this morning the bulletin signed by
Drs Pepper and Lincoln, in addition to his regular
Army attendants, recorded Pulse, l04; respira-

of the lungs still severe.
At rs his pulse was recorded at los, an in
crease of one point and his respiration 2s, de-
crease of six points, but varying.
At 80 p m. the following extraordinary bull
letin was issued by the attendant Army surgeons,
with verbal intimation that no further bulletins
might be expected till after midnight:
The evening has been quiet without any Incident
worthy Of mention. General Sheridans pulse is 10s

depleted by his long and terrible struggle, has Sc

hitherto marked his relapses leaves most serious

course the utmost sympathy is felt and expressed
on all hands for the Generals devoted wife, who
with her delicate physique, has been called upon
