To-night General Grant became anxiouf to see the doctors, and they arrived at the house after 11.

They remained with the General all niaht and Dr. hrady will stay to-morrow night. Physi cians are in the house to allay the General's own nervousness and calm the anxiety of his family. While he was dozing there had been an accumulation of phlegm in the rear of the nasal passage, and he was awakened by a sense of suffocation and a difficulty in breathing.

He consequently desired the presence of his physicians and they were sent for. The general's family remained up all night long, and it was a night of suspense to them.

Rockbridge, 111., March 27. The grow ing wheat in this section presents a sorry appearance. The most sanguine farmers predict only half a crop along the creek bot toms; where snow and ice gave continued protection the plant is vigorous and the fields present a green appearance. The crop on the uplands has suffered severely, and the only indications ol life in the wheat fields are in the depressions and along the fences where the drifted snow gave protec tion, Corn land seeded early in the fall presents the most encouraging, prospect. Several farmers have decided to plow up their wheat and plant corn. Pay Op.

Wild Scenes In the French Chambers. London, March 30. A special from Par is gives the following account of the opening scenes at the meeting of the chnnlier of dep uties to-day: Long before the hour of convening of the chamber the streets in the vicinity were packed by crowds of excited men. It soon became evident that trouble was brewing for the government. A strong force of mil itary was on hand to prevent trouble and preserve order in .the chambers. Notwith standing this precaution the galleries were crowded with people who showed irritation over the French defeat at Langson, by keeping up a noisy discussion and hurling denunciatory epithets at members of the cabinet and their supporters as they entered the chambers. When Jules Ferry, the premier, arose to announce the decision of the cabinet council this morning he was loudly hissed by the galleries. He had barely finished the dec laration when a number of deputies of the right spran;to their feet, yelling "Down with the wratch!" while above the din could be heard the voice of Clemcnceau, as be f urly screamed, "Traitors!" It was some time before order was restored, and had it not been for the presence of troops there i3 hardly a doubt that violence would have been done. During the scene in the chamber the crowd outside was becoming a howling mob, and made several attempts to pass the guard in order to get inside, but was kept back by the determined attitude of the military. The Ministry Resigns. Paris, March 30. At the opening of the session in the chamber of deputies this afternoon Minister Ferry presented the government's request for a credit of $40, 000,000 on account of military operations in China. Ferry at once moved for the ap pointment of a committee to examine and report upon the credit, and he demanded that the motion be given priority. The motion was rejected, by a vote of 308 to 61. Ferry immediately announced the resigna tion of the entire' ministry, and President Grevy accepted the resignation. Clemenceau s Speech. Paris, March 31. In his speech in the chambers yesterday, Clemenceau said the members of the cabinet were not ministers, but culprits who ought to be dealt with by law. This speech was loudly applauded. PACIFIC COAST. Russian Cruisers Coming. San Francisco, March 30. Count Olarovsky, Russian consul at this city, states that two Russian cruisers have left the Mediterranean for this port. Their ob ject in coming to this coast is to do as much damage to the English merchant marine and the British posessions, in case war between the two countries is declared. Decission Affecting the CUinese Act. San Francisco, March 30. Judge Saw yer, of the U. S. circuit court, decided that a Chinese merchant resident of this country could depart from it and enter it again, without being subjected to the conditions imposed in section six of the Chinese amended restriction act. Cattle Shipped. Walla Walla, March 30. The first shipment of cattle ever made from this coast to Chicago left here this morning via the O. R. & N., the Short Line and the Rock Island roads, Messrs. Dooley & Kirk man and Chris Ennis being the sliipers. Everything was handled admirably. All the lines deserve credit for their liberal pol icy in making a rate that would move stock. Twenty cars left, and the train will run twenty miles an hour. This is the fore runner of other shipments. Outrage on American Citizens. Panama, (via Galveston), March - 30. Star and Herald bulletins published to-day, say the steamer Colon was seized to-day at Aspinwall by revolutionists, who demanded the delivery of shipments of arms on board for the revolution. The agent refused to deliver. Connor, local superintendent of the Pacific Mail company, was first arrested and later the captaiu and purser of the steamer were placed under arrest ou board. Subsequently Captain Dowell of the Pa cific Mail company, Mr. Wright, United States consul, and the lieutenant of the American man-of-war Galena were arrested and inarched off to the cuartel. They were released at 6 o'clock, on condition that the arms should be delivered, and delivery is now going on. American and English war ships did nothing to protect foreign inter ests, because the revolutionary chief de clared he would resist their interference by force. Americans are indignant at the in sults to their flag and outrage to their per sons and property. Troops go from here to-night to attack the revolutionists, who, however, are in strong force, and with the arms from the Colon will probably be able to control events in their own way and to their own interests.
