TOWANDA, PA., FRIDAY, AUGUST 26, 1881.
PAKK CONCERT LAST NIGHT.—Our popu
lar Germania Band in full force—sixteen mem
bers— threaded their way through a dense
crowd of people, mostly ladies, to the Pa®oda
last evening. A multitude of friends were
awaiting them—filling the Park, the surround
ing walks, all available positions in and about
the adjoining buildings, also filling a double
line of carriages 011 Main and Park
It seemed like the eve of some great jubilee
or festival, as it was in reality, being the in
troduction Welcome to the grand Gertnan'a
Band Excursion to Wutkins Glen to-day.—
Little need b3 reported of the musical per
formance, for nearly the whole town and not
a few from the surrounding neighborhoods,
were there to hear it. Full, rich harmony,
with either spirited or legato movements,
readily taken under the accurate conductor
ship of Mr. YVAI.KER, made the concert in
tensely interesting to the attentive crowd.—
The second number was grand and in some
passages thrilling. The Xylophone was a fine
and skillful performance, was delicately ac
companied by the band, was the novelty and
favorite of the evening. It was persistently
encored ami repeated entire.
The last number, bapiiy named the Germa
nia wait/, pleasantly dismissed the immense
and gratified audience. Those who cannot
join the excursion party to-day are unfortu
nate; those wno can, will thank their lucky
stars and go.
The President's Condition.
The news from Washington this morn
ing is of a gloomy nature. The Presideut
perceptibly failed yesterday and his death
may he expected any moment.
OFFICIAL BULLETINS.
8 :iJO A. M.
The President slept most of the night,
lie has taken liquid food in sufiicieiit
quantities so that enemata have not been
resumed. The parotid gland remains
the same. His general condition is much
the same as yesterday. Pulse, 100; tem
perature, 98.5; respiration, 18.
12 :.'SO, I*. M.
Since the issue of the morning bulletin
a rise in the President's temperature sim
ilar to that which occured yesterday
morning has been observed. From the
incision in the parotid gland a few drops
of pus were disharged this morning.
The swelling remains the same. 111 oth
er respects his condition remains un
changed. Pulse, 112; temperature, 99.2;
respiration, 19.
G :30, r. M.
There lias been little change in the Pres
ident's condition since the noon bulletin
was issued. The frequency of his pulse
is now the same as then, his temperature
has risen somewhat but is not so high as
yesterday evening. There lias been a
slight discharge oi pus during the day,
from the incision in the parotid swelling,
but in is not diminishing in size. Noun
favorable change has been observed in
the condition of the wound. He takes by
the mouth a sufficient supply of liquid
food. At present his pulse is 112; tem
perature, 99.8; respiration, 19.
Blaine cabled Lowell at 9 p. 111., as fol
io ws : The President lias lost ground to
day. Some of the symptoms this after
noon and evening are of the gravest char
acter. The condition of the swolen gland,
the pulse and temperature, suggest seri
ous and alarming complications. His
mind at intervals has been somewhat be
clouded and wandering. His strength
fails, but lie still swallows liquid food of
a nourishing character. On this one fact
rests the hope that is still left of a re-ac
tlon.
