THE PRESIDENT. Rational A * ctat < xl 1'rtfl * . A RESTLESS XIOHT. WAS'HIXOTOX ; August 10. After 3 o'clock this morning the president rested comfortably and seemed en tircly free from nausea. At that hour 1m became a little restless , lie was awakened thirty minuton later by a sickness of the stomach. After ono or two attempts to vomit the nausea passed away without having given rise to any severe irritation. Mrs. Edson was at the bedside at the time and immediately culled Dr. Bliss and Dr. lloyburn , who were "on duty , but whoso presence was not necessary as the nausea wus not again noticed. The president then passed an uncom fortable half hour but finally fell iifllocp about 4 o'clock , at which time Dr. Bliss said his pulse had gene back and was firm and satisfactory in char , ncter. During the night the temperature turo and respiration were within nor mal range and tlioro was nothing to indicate that the wcund was not doing well. WHILE THE ritKSIDKXT WAS AWAKK , between three and four o'claok , ho had -a slight but natural passage of the bowels. At daylight Mrs. Edson was roliovedjbyj udgc Swaim , who took his seat at the president's bedside , then asleep. Dr. Reyburn reclined noai by _ , and Dr. Bliss was. asleep in an ad joining room. The president's fam ily were all asleep at this time , ant James Gurfiold , Jr. , had wrapped him clf in n blanket to lay near the door of the sick room. Since the shooting "young Jim , " as ho is called , has ta ken to sleeping wherever fancy may dictato. At six o'clock the doctors were ntill in the room. The presidonl had not needed them since they were culled by Mrs. Edson during the night. All through the oaily morning workmen , as they passed to thoirday's Lvbor , halted before the White House and gazed at it , as if its outer appearance anco might convey to them some indi cation of the condition of its patient. XNOTH or EAIILY KISEItK wcro , gathered about the street cor ners , guessing at thu character of the bulletin , There had been last night a strong feeling perceptible through out the city that the president would not live until morning. The news of thu comparative inipiovement of the late hour had however spread and the morning p.ipuis added a gleam of hope , so the end was believed to be not ypt , and interest centered on the morning bulletin. At 0:30 : a. m. , n messenger who called on his way to inept Secretary Lincoln , who was to arrive by the early train , found Mrs. Garfiuld up and dressed. She ap peared to bo cheoiful and had just seen the doctors. They could , how ever , tell her nothing more of her huiband's condition than that his strength appeared to bo increasing , This they judged simply from the character of the pulse , whoso | > eats V had , however , not been counted. When PrivatoSocrutary Brown reached the White House at 7 a. m. , ho found the doctors dozing , and Genera ! Swain announced that the president was still asleep. XO PUKTIIEH IXViWMATION could bo gleaned during the next hour , Dr , Agnew came down with Attorney-General MacVeagh soon af ter 7 o'clock , and Drs. Barnes mid Woodward followed soon after. To the physicians Dr. Bliss stated , what was not previously given to the public , that the president had several spells of vomiting early in the night. Ho then rested bettor until about 'J o'clock. The nausea at this time , mentioned in earlier dispatches , did not repulse the vomiting , but the retching caused him much pain after . ' { o'clock , and after the passage al ready reported an eneniata was ad- miiiinterod. From this time his rest was good , and at the time of the morning examination his physicians found him somewhat refreshed. The wound was found to be in excellent condition. The temperature and respiration being normal added to the belief of yesterday that the stomach trouble is isolated from the v. , . or condition of the wound. The whyi siciana nro very conservative in tnoir expressions this morning. They say ho whole matter rests on their ability o strengthen the atomnch , and that nothing but time can tell whether hot can bo done. Meanwhile THK FAMILY AND CABINET are encouraged to hope the difficulty may bo successfully mot , and the watching will bo continuous. Attor ney General McVeaglt takes n gloomy view of thocaso. Ho has feared some such complication-as the present , but tie fools that there is a favorable change this morning. From the tone of his conversation , lion over , ho Bcoina to fear that it will not last. Postmaster General James says ho ex pected an improvement this morning and believes it will continue through out the day. Other members of the cabinet say they feel slightly reassur cd , but still doom the situation very grave. Secretary Blainp has not boon heard from. The public are divided in opinion over the morning bulletin , a few considoing it favorable , but the recurrence of the vomiting during the night is generally looked upon as n bad sign. No excitement in the city this morning. Hopeful people are , however , in the minority. ALL THK CABINET OFFICERS have gene to their duties in the de partments , but are-to bo immediately informed if there isf'any material change for the worse. Jllaino started for Washington on receiving last night's nowj and ia expected to reach hero to-night. Dr. Hamilton is ex pected this afternoon According to his previous arrangements with Dr. Ag now. 'The departure of. . Dr. Agnew will depend on to-day's developments. Secretary Lincoln , who arrived from New York this morning , says that to him the situation scorns to bo ok- troinoly serious at present. There was n little improvement this morn ing , but ho says it is""vory little. ' All anxiety turns towards the noon bulletin , and on its indications hangs the expectation of the people. If the temperature should bo much below the normal point and the pulse remain higlrtho gravity of the situation would bn deepened. If , on the other hand , the tempera ture should remain in the normal range or oven if it should increase slightly and the pulse still remain high the situation would not bo ma terially changed. A stationary tern peraturo and an improvement in the pulse would be the best indication. These suggestions are based on a known tlnory of the physicians. They are very reticent and.it . is impossible to get any very definite statement from them as , to their views at this critical timo. The bulletin may bo expected about 1 o'clock. NO XOL'KISUMEXT IX THE NEXT TWENTY- FOUR IIOUKS. The critical situation has been explained plained to the president and ho has been told that ho will bo unable to take any nourishment in the ordinary way for the next 24 hours. THAT CABINET MF.ET1NU. WASHINGTON , D. C. , August 10. Shortly after 4 p. in. Attorney-Gen eral MacVcagh drove up to the White House. Almost immediately after wards came Secretary Hunt , and by twenty minutes after 4 all of the mem bers of the cabinet were in the cabi net chamber with the exception ol Secretary Blaine , who had not yet arrived. A little later , the state de partment was represented by Acting Secretary Hitt. This circumstance soon became noised abioad and the report was cuircnt that the president was dying and the cabinet had been called. The facts intho case are that after' the noon bulletin had been issued Attorney-General MacVcagh wits greatly worried with the gravity of the situation anil suggested that at some time durin. . the afternoon all the cabinet officers got together and ask ono of the sur geons to give them a plain statement of the president's prospects. It so happened that the meeting was ef fected soon after the closing of thn de partments. Dr. Bliss sat with them about twenty minutes and so im pressed them with the bolicf that the president had a good chance to re cover that they came out with a re assurance which was evident , in their countenances. Mr. MaoVeagh , who has been the moat gloomy of all to day , had a smile on his face and as sured the inquirer that the mooting had no official tiignificunco whatever. Ho did not say what might have been the significance had not the surgeons placed the case in so favorable a light before them. Dr , Bliss is anything but nervous this afternoon. Ho un doubtedly clings to the idea that the trouble with the president's stomach will yet bo surmounted. THE I'Hiwiiuixr''i rin.siciANM do not yield in the least their hope that the crisis may yet bo passed. Dr. Basil Norris , one of the physicians who was temporarily in attendance in the early days of the case , says that hu does not think the ease ia hopeless. When asked if ho thought the presi dent could pull through ho said' "Ho han done so much in this direction al ready tnat wo can hardly doubt any thing " During all the later houtd of the afternoon the fooling of depression that had hung over the White House all day was somewhat lifted , though the case could not bo determined. The reports from the sick-room up to 0 p. m , were that the president was hold ing his own. No details as to thu ir ritation of the stomach could bo learned. The meagroness of the in formation waa not looked upon as very assuring. The anxiety of the populace had again turned toward thu evening bulletin , and before 7 o'clock the usual crowd had begun to gather Uxmt the Whi'o House bnl- etin to hear thu latest nowa. , THE lUrilEMION 14 OIIOWIKU at the White House that the crisis is it joust worked oil' but an curly fa * tality continues to bo the talk of thu perfple throughout the city. Theie is in earnest hope that such will not bo the cose. The people in the street find it hard to shake oil' thu forebod- i that Imvo gained such ground. Now and then muttered cuncs are tieard and if Guiteau should happen to t bo available ho would IH ) torn limb f from limb. No definite information as to when Secretary Blixino will ar rive is obtainable. Dr. Hamilton started from Soabripht at 4 p. in. It is twsitivoly assorted that Yice-Prosi- dent Arthur has not been eent for , al though ho in kept constantly informed of the presidents condition. The- ru mor that the president is atllictod with bad sores is utterly w ith- out foundation. Dr. Bliss said , as lie entered the White House For the evening examination , thnt up to the time ho loft the patient , tMO p. m. , ho wus perfectly oatietied with the progress of the case to-day. Ho spoke of the difficulty in the stomach as if it was easily surmounted , Ho felt bettor for BOIIIO reason than ho did in the early part of the day ( but ho did not say how far the trouble had been surmounted. "Wo will fight it out on this line if it takes all summer , " ho said. Mrs. Garficld took- short ride this afternoon to take air. She appealed as calm as over. Before going out she sat for an hour by the president's side , and resumed the same position for n while on her rotuni. SYMPATHIES OK THK QUEEN. The following was received hero to day : LONDON.

WASHINGTON , August 1C.--Socro- rotary Brown's room was literally packed with correspondents and other callers when the bulletin was brought from the doctors' room this evening. Assistant Secretary Pruden read it aloud and left the company to comment - mont on it while copies were being prepared for distribution. Dr. Bliss appeared in their midst and stated that thu bulletin was a very conservative vative ono and in general indicated an improvement. Hi > said that the afternoon vomiting referred to was caused by drinking a slight excess of water. THE MUST EM'HIiSSIONS in regard to the bullotintj were in recognition of its ono favorable foa- tuo. The temperature instead of falling to normal , as it had been feared , had gene up a little but' was still within normal range. The high pnls % under the circumstances was slightly less alarming , Uiough the con tinued gravity of thu situation was undeniable. On all sides were heard murmurs of disappointment. The slight improvements were so indefinite and indicated such slow pro gress that the impatience of the wait ing people was not allayed. The only crumbs of comfort gathered from the evening bulletin was the rise in tem perature had postponed if not warded oil' the 'crisis , while little satisfac tion was gained from the more fact that no ground had been los't , On the streets the bulletins caused 'addi tional forebodings. The crowd that had collected before the White House slowly walked away in silence. "HE WILL DIE UEKOUEMOKNINCl" was heard on all1 sides , but there were a few wjio still cling to the hope that the morning will see him better. At the White4 House the deepest anxiety prevails , but no immediate danger is apprehended. The dozens of places where bulletins were posted about the city this evening were scones of deep interest. A stranger happening in could not but judge that the presi dent was dying. At Pennsylvania avenue and Fifteenth street , as a largo crowd collected , scarcely a voice of hope could bo heard. The general question was not "How is ho"but ? "How long do you think ho will last ? " His death seems'to bo accepted as a foregone conclusion , A gentle man of grand physique , addressing these near him'said ; "I am confident the president will recover. " uWhat makes think ? " "Well " you so , con tinued the speaker , "I had a hall in mo ten months and a day. Two of my ribs were broken and the ball crossed my back. I was reduced from 210 to 118 pounds but here I am well. " But such speeches were not what pboplo wa > .ted. The people clamored for more official bulletins. They did not seem to consider the impracticability of disturbing the president frequently to pet accurate nformation. All that could bo learned 'rom the sick room was bulletined by .ho local presses. All nt the White House grew a little more cheerful r.s thu evening advanced but the gloom could not bo hidden. Secretary ( ilaine had not arrived nt ! > p. m , Jol. Rockwell wus asked at Hi0 ; ? p. m. vhatho thonght of the president , "Oh , 10 is bettor , " was the reply , "How much better , Col. i" "Well , enough to give mo consider able encouragement. " Alter the president had gene to Bleep ( lie situation was generally talked over in the cabinet room , Attorney- General MacVcagh came out and wus naked what the feeling waa. "Wo fell a little bettor , that ia , wo find ground for hope and wo nro bound to get all the encouragement wo can. The situation ! H of the gravest concern. No such slight improvement relieves mo from fear , but.I got what comfoit I can from the slight improvement. " The same question asked of Post master General James , ho said ho was , feeling better , Ho considered the situation grave and more than grave , but there is enough tit keep from despondency , Kirkwood , too , noes a ray of light in the -fact that the president is no worse to-night , Secretary Windom feola very much bettor , Lincoln thinks the situation too serious for guess work. Ho is wait ing to BOO how the night is past. cting Secretary Hitt thinks the prospect bettor to-night than last night. The more favorable tempera ture in the evening bulletin hassoryo/1 to jwirtly reassure Private Secretary Drown. Ho looks more cheerful but 10 is cautious of his statement. THK I'EATUIlE OKT1IK RVRS1M lias been the meagrcncM of the news [ rom the sick room. The doctors re main in their own room and the nurses do not co back and forth so much. The family and cabinet soino- timcs set an hour or so without seeing or hearing directly from the doctors. After the evening bulletinnothing could be learned from the sick room except that the president had gene to uleopnttt p. m. , and morphia had been administered.
