The aiDuety of the physicians am the fears of tlio people , ' excited by the increase in the president's tempera ture yesterday afternoon , are again allayed , the predictions of the physi cians being entirely fulfilled. The physicians felt so sure that the in crease was caused by some local ex citement and that it would subside during the night , that1only the two regular physicians remained on duty as usual It was noticeable ; however , soon after , the eyening examination that tht ) pulse had subsided ant the temperature was gradually growing less. The jircaidonl fell asleep without tlio usua dose of morphine , but did'Hot sleep easily or connectedly. The fever worried " him and ho jras restU'so. Soon alter "midnight , however , lie "grew moro easy and slept moro naturally. Gradually the pulse Went down and the temperature subsided. This be gan as eoon as perfect quiet was re stored and continued until the doc tors came this morning , when the figures were less than at the same hour yesterday morning. The patient felt weak but cheerful. Ho talked but very little , however , and only said ho felt much better to-day. The doctors found every symptom favorable. The dis charge ot pus was laudable and in ac cordance with Jho doctors estimate. The patient makes no complaint of in creased pains ill any part of the body. Ho has taken increased nourishment this morning and has had no trouble of the stomach. Ho has soon no ono but his nurse. The doctors and Mrs. Garfield's anxiety of the night has giv en place to brighter hope this morning and the doctors say it is well founded. INQUIUIUS AFTEIl THE PIlKHIUEXTVt CON DITION. There has been comparatively few letters and telegrams received lit the house to-day. One letter con tained copies of the resolutions adopt ed by the common council of the city of Brooklyn on July 5th. There ws been an unusual number of inquir es as to the condition fof the prcsi- lent to-day and all Boom delighted to icar that the fenrs'of lost night have massed away , "Vrico President Arthur who asked several times during the night for in- 'ornmtion expressed great'plo'asuro' on receipt of to-day's good news. All the members of the cabinet have called this morning or sent their" , noc- rotaries. The doctors agree that their opinions of the case exprcssc yester- lay hold equally well to-day to-day , with the additional encouragement of another day's good effects added. They seek now for the patients entire quiet. The event of last uvuning show how much influence n slight ex citement has oti the president's weak condition and extra precautions are herofore taken.

THfa SYMPTOMS CONTINUE FAVOJIAULE. WASHINGTON , July 12 , Drs/ Bliss md Key burn the only jihysicians at tha'Whita House , at' this hour , do- lire to denoy the reports circulated hat the president's symptoms are note o favorable as the doctors icport. fhoy rfay ho is bettor in every Respect present than at any time since the ihooting , ; and .that there , no , indica- ion of unfavorable symptoms. The niliatiqn , jre piratibn'gnd ( temponf- ' ' " ure'are lower tlidifat'l p."in.t and no higher than should bo expected under the circumstances. - . PHOCLAMAT10N Of KENTUCKY'S (10V- EllNOIl. Mrs , Oarfiold to-day received copy of the proclamation of Governor Hlackburn , of Kentucky , calling upon the people of his state to observe Thursday , July 1-lth , as a day of fasting and prayer for the re covery of President Garliold , nnd that the people suspend businnss on that day , and assemble in their churches for public worship. TIII : punsiDr.NT's ruusi : . The attending physician say they do not try to conceal the fact that the president is n very sick man , and that no is not out of danger , but they do insist that all his symptoms are favorable , and that there is no indica tion of unfavorable symptoms to come. Much of the comment about the doctors has grown out of the high condition of the pulse , respiration am ; temperature , \vhicli is shown in the bulletins. These figures , the doctors insist , have not yet , or , at least since the first three days , boon higher than was to have boon expected under the circumstances. The president's puiso since the hopeful symptoms of his case sot in has invariably iiuickonoi in the evening and decreased in the morning , The doctors attribute the increase to the hunt , stir , and bustle incident to the day time and the de crease to the cooler atmosphere am general quiet which prevails nt night. President Garliold's natural pulse when in good health nnd spirits is about seventy beats per minute. The highest pulsation yet reached in his case has been 120. For the pasl few days it has ranged from 108 to 08. In case of extreme lethargy the pulse has boon known to bo down to 17 , and the other extreme on record is 200 , tlio latter occurring with children with .water on the brain. The presi dent's temperature has boon as low as 98.J ) , only four-tenths of a dcgreo above natural. Last night it reached the highest point , 102 j. The surgeon's credited this rise ( it had not previously boon going above 101 nnd a fraction ) to the excitement of the patient produced by the ham mering and other' noises necessary to the constructing of implements for compressed air. The president's res piration has varied from 19 to 24 in health who free from any ailment. The respiration now is from 23 to 24 ; but in case of sickness it has boon re corded as low as 7 and as high as 100. TIIK ASSASSIN. The prisoner , Guitcau , grows sullen and uneasy in his cell Ho thinks that if ho could read the papers , smoke cigars and walk about in the rotunda of the jail ho would bo happy. Th6so favors are refused , and ho pines noticeably. Ho does not care to talk as much as at first , but now and then talks lone with tlm district attorney or whichever of his assistants may call on him. Pie has said a great many things to these men not made public. The peculiar ideas of the prisoner in regard to n sectional cabinet have caused considerable comment , as in deed , hiis every action is more or loss commented upon. Uuitcau has n campaign speech on Garfield and Han cock ; , which ho has been in the habit of using ns an introduction to promi nent political personages. In New York ho approached Conkling andgjtondered him a copy of ot the speech , but was treated rather coldly. The next time ho mot him was in Washington , and ho again handed Conkling a copy of the speech saying that ho ( Gniteau ) was an ap plicant for oflico , nnd the speech would show the grounds for his claim. Conkling , on this occasion , angrily declared that ho didn't want the speech , and throw it on the ground with scorn. Senator Don Cameron witnessed the scene with some amusec mcnt. Guitonu says , "I came to the conclusion that 'My Lord Iloscoo' was snubbing mo. " Till ! OAllFIELD FUND. Mrs. Garfield is all nerve and ten sion , and says the general must and will recover. She was called on yes terday by Cyrus W. Field , but no mention was made to the purse of : noney which was being raised for lor. Mr. Field is still in the city. Lie was asked to-day about the pro gress of the subscription. Ho ro- tliod ; "Wo have mot with unexpected success so far , and if it were necessa ry to urge an increased liberality I lon't doubt but the sum could be easily made to reach a half a million. Mr. Garlield is a popular man and the ecent cowardly attempt to slay him ins been followed by u sympathy for limself nnd family nil over the coun try. " Of course if tlio president dies it was suggested that this fund vill go to his family. "But what vail undo with itif ho recovers ? " "Well. " laid Mr , Field , r.ithur hesitatingly , ( 'it 9 ia boon subscribed nnd is his , but hero are doubts existing whether ho vill accept , but , of course , this is n natter wo have not considered. It vill have to rest for future action. " AlTUIl A WITNESS OF TUB HHOOTINO. District Attorney Corkhill sent Do- cctivo MoKlfrcsh to Annapolis to- light to try and verify the story of Nicholas Jackson , who claims to have jeen in the depot when the president yas shot , and assorts in a letter pub- [ isliod this evening that ono of the balls struck him in the breast nnd wan itoppod by a modal which ho wore. The detective will bring the writer f the letter to Washington , if neces sary. . TUB P00TQU8. The attention of Dr , Barnes was called to the rumors that were afloat as to the misiepresohtation of the president's case. "Oh. " said tlio lurgcon general , "I have boon all hrough that. For six weoko I sat icsido Fred. Steward. The news papers oven translated any bulletins ; and signed them Barnacle. Then , as low , wo presented the true state- noilta. of the case , The only 'safe , julletin to issue _ is a general state- nont of the patient's condition , but all would not bo satisfied. . ' Some want the figures to draw therefrom their own deductions. In this case they would have done so , and without knowing anything about the MSO. they linvo grossly misrepresented both it and these who have it in charge. Not only is the president much bettor than lastovoninr but ho is much bettor than ho has boon at anytime since the shooting. Dr. Woodward's opinion on the case as expressed this morning , ii as follows : "I think it safe io say that the president passed by far tlio best day he has passed since the shooting. Ho has boon less disturbed by tlio afternoon febrile rise than heretofore. The actual maximum temperature has bee i less than yes terday , though it still represents con siderable. The other physicians in the case are more and more hopeful every day , although wo cannot vet say that the president is out of danger. Dr. Hoyburn coincides with the oilier physicians in regard to to-day having been the best day the president has I passed , Said ho : "Wo were madoK < uaiaerably anxious last night by the sudden rise of the president's temperature accom panied ns it was by a dry , hot skin , and not a little fever. Wo then thought these indications were only temporary and so it proved , , To-day has been comparatively an easy one for him and I have no hesitancy in declaring him bettor. Ho is very weak , to be sure , but not un comfortable. There are no indications of pyomia. Among these would bo yellowness and hotness of the skin. Of these there is nothing now. The yellowness that did exist is all gone and the skin is clear and cool. Wo do not say the danger from secondary homorrjmge is entirely passed , although wo 'hro in clined to think so at present. All his symptoms are very favorable and wo have more hope to-night than at any time since the case began. Ho says himself that ho feels better. While Dr. lloyourn was speaking , Mrs. Dr. Edson came from the room and said the president has been sleep ing nicely since half past 8 o'clock. She laughed at the idea of any one saying that the president was not much bettor to-day. Dr. Bliss states that at half past 10 o'clock to-niyht , at , np time since the shooting , had the presidents symptoms boon so favora ble as at present. There was not the slightest unfavorable indication. Ho had less fever than yesteiday , and a great deal better temperature and bettor general conditions than he had over exhibited in the history of the case. He said there was no cause for alarm at the temperature of the president. It was not greater than should bo expected. It was a degree less than at 7 o'clock. The president was very weak yet , but ho is on the gain. If ho was otherwise. Dr. Bliss would not hesitate " to say so , but ho was glad to be ab"lo to say that ho was on the - gain. . VlCE-VllKSIDENT AIITIIOI. Vice President Arthur called at the White House this morning while the cabinet otlicora and their ladies were with Mrs. Garfield. Ho was unaccom panied , save by his body servant , who is always with him. Ho had a short interview with Mrs. Garfield and pass ed nearly a half hour with the com pany. The time was passed pleas antly and all of them evi dently greatly enjoyed the prospects - pects for the president's iccovory. There was not a doubtful voice in the party. All were confident that the president would recover. The vice president intimated that lie might possibly return to Now York to morrow if the president's ' condition improved. As ho was entering his carriage ho said ho had not decided when ho would leave the city. Ho would have no objections to stating it frankly f if ho know when he should go. It would depend only partially oil the presidents1 ! ) condition. Ho might go to-morrow but had not yet decided. All the members of the cabinet left the mansion at tlio same time with the vice president , and soon after the doors were closed. The president has rested peacefully during the ovoniug and seems to bo getting the benefit of a comfortable night. TUESDAY'S HUtLETINS , S'atloiml Amwdatcd 1'rcjs. WASHINGTON , July 12 8:20 : a. in.

The dem ocratic state convention for the nomi nation of state ollicors will meet to morrow. A careful canvass of views seems to show that .Ino. W. Book- waiter , of Springfield , wil load. Judge Gcddos , of Mansfield , is hero and his adherents are making notice able inroads upon Bookwaltor's sup porters. The opinion is freely expressed by his antagonists that John F. Follet , of Cincinnati , could receive tlm nomi nation should ho so desire , but the claim is made that he wishes the supreme premo judgcship. The minor offices wore but little canvassed , and dojiond almost entirely upon geographical complications , caused by the preced ing nominations. The state central committee agreed upon J. Edward Spear , until quite recently editorial writer for The Oinoiunntt ISntruirer , for chairman. This is thought to'be the moans of electing Senator Pondlo- ton for permanent chairman , who is opposed because of his advocacy of Stanley Matthews. Mexican Matters- CITY or Mnxico , July 12. Adolfo Obrigon , an engineer who was sent by the government to investigate tlio Morolos railroad disaster , lias sent his report to the secretary of war. Ho blames the management for a hurried construction of the road and not building bridges properly. Seven en gineers , all Mexicans , also testified and the government is taking further testimony.
