REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.
PRESIDENT GARFIELD.
"Washington, July 4. A bulletin was issued this morning which reports that President Garfield has not passed so good a night, having only dozed at intervals. He has complained of pains in his abdomen, which the doctors pronounce to be symptoms of tympanites, or distention of the abdomen. The latest bulletin regarding the President reports that his condition is unchanged. A bullet, it has been ascertained, pierced the liver, and now lies embedded in the abdomen. From Gintean's conduct since his arrest, it is believed that he is insane. Telegrams of condolence have been received from Her Majesty the Queen, the Prince of Wales, and the Marquis of Lome. BRITISH AND FOREIGN. London, July 4. The attempt on the life of the President of the United States of America has caused profound sensation throughout Europe, and universal sympathy is expressed at his precarious condition. LATEST AUSTRALIAN NEWS. Melbourne, July 1. A grand concert was given at the Exhibition Building by the Gei-man Liedertafel Society. The Royal Princes and the Governor were present, and the attendance of the public is estimated at fully 6000. The affair was a most brilliant one.
