Jt I appears th.it the surgeons, alter tiie I ul.'rming symptoms of the morning, j decided that it was useless to longer tciiitiuue the sttuggl.', and two of their number were -elected to wait upon Mrs. Garfield and to inform her that medical science could do no mi-re, unit that siie imji-t prepare for the woivt. The interview liicli occui reii between these surgeous and Mrs. Gar lie! I w jll, if n-iiorts are true, be re garded as one of the most dr.iui.itie in eidenls in tliis extraordinary case. Captain Henry Marshal of this district a friend of the president nnd his fam ily, says that M rs Gartield beard the news with great composure, and that, smothering her emotion, she arose and said : ''Gentlemen, you shall not give him up. He o; not going to the; he i -going to live. I feel, I know it. Go baei; to your post, every one of you, and leave it not until every remedy is exhausted; until deaih itself has i-et his seal upon him, for I will not be lieve that he is dying, tin linek and do what jou can; you cannot do more, bur don't give up. I am his wife, and I say that we will not give up un til the end ilsell is upon us." Mrs. Gar tield has never surrendered more than a moment or two at a lime to her grief, and then she has retired to her room, alter a brief absence lias returned to her post of duty at the president's bedside. Mrs. IMmhi says that the president is doing splendidly. He is taking his nourishment und she is ex tremely hopeful. Dr. Boynton, too, is more hopeful tliis morning, and says lie thinks lie notices an improved condition in the blood. There are also microscopic indications that the food is assiiuiluling properly. 'J lie president cuii open his mouth easily and lie tastes his food. Thk recent death of Mrs. Millard Fillmore recalls a singular incident couueeted with her two husbands. In 1M7, whiie she was the wife of Hon. EzeUkl Mcintosh of Alhany, Mr. Fiil niore was candidate for tho iiosition ol State Comptroller of New Ynr't. Some persons who desired to oefeat his election raised about, ii l,s)U for the purpose and placed it in the hands of Mr Mcintosh, instructing him to place it hi bank in lmown name and not to make the matter public He did as desired, hut before the fund could be drawn out to uso for election purposes the treasurer fell Biek ami died. Mr. Fillmoru was elected Comp troller, mi l many years afterwards married Mrs. Mcintosh, and received . as part of her dowry, the money Uiat bad been raised to defeat hU election Tlie ex-President used to enjoy telling the story, aud often remarked that the "money wasplueed where it would do tho most good" to him.
