Morphy'a Memory. Of Morphy'a gigantio memory, I had indubitable proei from my own observation at the time he was playing his celebrated match at LowentnaL Both opponents had. agreed to regard the games played as their intellectual private property, not to be published. I was at the time editing the chess column of the Sunday Times, and anxious to reproduce them there. In order to obtain the requisite information I had to apply to one of the contesting parties.

I first went to Morphy, who received me most cordially, and declared his entire willingness to dictate for me the last partie, played the day before. I begged nim to repeat the game on the board, as I would in this manner be better able to follow the progress of the contest. Morphy consented, and, at the tenth move of black, (Lo wen thai,) I asked him to stop a moment, since it seemed to me that at this particular point a better move might have been made. "Oh, you probably mean the move which you yourself made in one of yonr contests with Dufresne answered Morphy in his simple, artless way of speaking. I was startled.

The partie mentioned had been played in Berlin in 1851, seven years before, and I had totally forgotten all its details. On observing this. Morphy called for a second board, and began, without the least hesitation, to repeat that game from the first to the last move without making a single mistake. I was speechless from surprise. Here was a man, whose attention was constantly distracted by countless demands on his memory, ana yet he had perfectly retained for seven years all tne details of a game insignificant in itself, and, moreover, printed in a language and description unknown to him.

(The game was published in the Berliner Schachzeitung of 1851 l) Brentano'a Chest Monthly. Levi Bolden was frustrated in an attempt to escape from the Kentucky State Prison by the carelessness with which his cell mate, John Stewart, kept the secret of his scheme. He swore that in revenge he would kill Stewart and the jailer who made the discovery; but a year passed without the murderous vow being fulfilled, and it was no longer considered of any consequence. Bolden had never changed his purpose, however, and a few days ago. when for the first time he could provide himself with a weapon, he slew Stewart in the cell and assailed the jailer as he opened the door to learn the cause of the disturbance but he was shot down before the second murder was completed.

BPSCXali TO THS PlCATDYK. Washington, Aug. 10. The physicians and others around the President continue to speak cheerfully of his condition. Dr.

Bliss goes so far as to say that the operation was nothing more than the pulling of a tooth. The members of the Cabinet who called to day were reassured by the statements of the physioians in charge. Mr. Windom went away satisfied, from all the reports, that the President was improving. Mr.

Blaine, after calling, left this afternoon to take his family to New England, feeling asoured that the President would rapidly convalesce. At one time to day the pulse went up to 110 this evening it has fallen to 108. The temperature is 101, or about a degree lower than last evening, showing a slight abatement of the fever. day has been very warm, though during its hottest hours a good breeze prevailed. The statements in the bulletins as to pulse, respiration and temperature are accepted as true, but the other portions of the bulletins are regarded by many as systematic efforts to disguise the real truth.

statements of Swaim, Rockwell and others as to the President's strength are directly contradicted by Mrs. Dr. Edson, who enjoys a good personal character as an upright, benevolent woman. She has been about the President a good deal, and says that he is a great and constant sufferer and is at present exceedingly feeble. He talks very little.

The operation has removed any immediate danger, and unless other and new unfavorable symptoms appear, there is no reason why he should not recover. She regards his condition, as serious. This is probably the most candid and truthful report that has come from the White House for a long time. 1 Medical men complain of the suppression of the bulletins. They prefer to have all the facts stated on which to form an opinion.

Last night Dr. Bliss speaking of the President, said His face does not hare that tight, drawn expression that indicated intense suffering for several It is noteworthy that not even a hint of this ever crept into the official bulletins. The state of the President is deemed a little more favorable than yesterday as to fever, but there are stronger indications of liability, and the anxiety in respect to the future continues undiminished bnt no sudden or early change for the worse or for the better is now anticipated. A Good Sign. The President Writes his Name to a Requisition.

Special to the Picayune, Washington, Aug. 10. It has transpired that the President signed to day, at the request of the Secretary of State, an important document. The paper was previously read to him at his own request in order that he might understand it fully. The document was for the extradition of Fritsch, the Canadian forger.

It is semi officially reported that the President will henceforward sign all important papers. The members of the Cabinet have obtained from the six surgeons in attendance their individual opinions, and they all agree that the President will get well. SUPREME COURT. How Jadse Clifford's Vacancy Will Be FlllesV Bpecux to thb FiCAYuine. Washington, Aug.

10. Notwithstanding all the talk about the President appointing a Democrat or a representative man from the Southern bar to the vacancy on the Supreme bench occasioned by the death of Justice Clifford, there is not the slightest reason to expect that anything in a liberal direction will come from the present Administration on this subject. All appointments, high or low, will be rigidly confined te the ranks of the Bepnblican party. I have good authority for stating that it was determined upon, even before Judge Clifford died, to give the place to Chief Justice Gray, of Massachusetts. If this programme should be departed from, and any one taken from the South, it is more likel to be Secretary Hunt than a Democrat.

Rkyburn. The Fever BnbeMeav Executive Mansion, 10:55 A. M. The continued fever, which has been the most marked feature of the President's case for the past three or four days, subsided entirely during the night, and the patient's temperature this morning was normal for the first time since Sunday. The breaking of the fever was followed by profuse perspiration and rather high pulse, as shown by the morning bulletin, and is probably due to weakness resulting therefrom.

The discharge of pus at the morning dressing was unusually copious, showing that the wound is now perfectly and thoroughly drained. The drainage tube was put in again and the wound washed out with a weak solution of carbolio acid and water. Siuee the dressing the patient has taken nourishment in the shape of milk and lime water, and at this hour he is quiet and comfortable. The surgeons report that he is doing well. Official Bulletin.

Executive Mansion, 12:30 P. M. The President is getting through the day in a very satisfactory manner. He asked for, and has taken, a small quantity of solid food, in addition to the liquid nourishment allowed. At the morning dressing the discharge of pus through the new opening was more free than at any previous tune its character was good, and the wound looks well.

His temperature and respiration continue within a normal range, though the debility following the operation is still shown by the frequency of jthe pulse. At present his Enlse is 110, temperature 96 6 10, respira ton 19. D. W. Bliss, J.

M. Dr. Bliss reports at 4:30 P. M. that notwithstanding the high pulse shown bv the noon bulletin, the President has had a very favorable day.

The rapidity of the pnlse was on indication of weakness resulting from the operation and from the diminished quantity of. food given him yesterday and Monday but this is a transient condition, and will not it is thought last longer than tomorrow. Already the pnlse has fallen six beats since the noon bulletin and the temperature is only a little above, normal. The patient has taken more nourishment today than at any time heretofore since Sunday, and his condition is, in the opinion of all the surgeons, much better than it was twenty four hours ago. The President performed this afternoon his first official act since the 2d ot July by signing a formal requisition for the extradition of a criminal who some time since took refuge in Canada, and is now in custody of the Canadian authorities pending action of this Government lie Has Passed an Excellent Day i Washington, Aug.

10, 7 P. M. The President has passed an excellent day. The drainage of the wound is now efficient, and pus secreted by its deeper portions has been coming away spontaneously. The afternoon rise of temperature is almost a degree less than yesterday and the day before.

The pulse at present is 108, temperature 101, respiration 19. The Signs ef Improvement. Washington, Aug. 10, 11:15 P. M.

Signs of improvement in the President's condition began be apparent to day soon after noon. His pulse, which had been high during the early part of the day, which indicated more than ordinary weakness, fell from 110 to 104 in the course of the afternoon, and his temperature at the evening examination was lower than it has been at the same hour on any day since the 5th. These facts were taken as evidence, first, that the wound is once more in a healthy condition and free from retained pus and, second, that the disturbance caused by the operation of Monday has nearly subsided. the evening examination and pressing, which were entirely satisfactory, the fever which came on late In the afternoon began to abate, and the pulse to fall, and the patient went quietly to At this hour, 11:15 P. the fever has entirely disappeared, temperature and respiration are again normal, and the pulse has fallen to 100.

The patient has slept soundly without anodynes since' half past 9, and will, the surgeons think, have a good night and show decided gain to morrow. His present condition they say is in eyery way encouraging and satisfactory. WASHINGTON. An Evasive Reply. Washington, Aug.

Consul General Stanton writes to the Department of State under date of July 19. 1881, that the local journals announce the appearance of the Siberian oattle plague in the governments adjoining that of St. Pete rati rg, and that it is steadily increasing, although as yet not to an alarming ex tent. According to telegrams to the Solos, the Government have taken, although Bomewhat tardily, necessary measures for isolating the infected district, but lack of veterinary assistance and unwillingness of peasants to comply with sanitary regulations are great obstacles to the speedy eradication of the plague. It is also reported that in some localities, to save skins, peasants foolishly flayed dead animals, whereby they contributed to the spread of disease and were themselves in many instances in fected with the plague, which in some cases proved fatal.

According to the latest reports no headway has been made against the disease. Salelde of a Massachusetts Jadae Pitts fteCd, Aug. Judge A James D. Colt, of the Supreme Bench, committed suicide yesterday by shooting himself through the head. Death ef Hatthew Tasear.
