ston's condition is somewhat improved
to-day and he is apparently stronger than
ho has been since his illness. His pulse
has become more regular and the signs Of
failure are less apparent. While the
Generals age naturally renders him
feeble, at no time during bis sickness
hos he been constantly confined TO his
bed.
FRIENDS DO NOT DESPAIR.
The General sat up in bed this morning
and partook of some nourishment. He
passed a restless night. however, and
owing 10 the nature of his malady and his
advanced age it would not be surprising
if the old Confederate hero should pass
over the river at any time. Still it is pos
sible that he may grow stronger and live
some time yet. Some Of his friends do
not despair, although the attending physi-
clan is frank enough to say that he is
doubtful about the General being strong
enough TO pull through this attack.
