NO HOPE OF HIS RECOVERY—HIS FAMILY AT HIS BED- SIDE—A SKRTOH OF HIS ANCESTRY AND HIS ACTIVE LIFE—PERSONAL HABITS AND CHARACTERISTICS. ‘The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher was stricken with apoplexy early last Friday morning, but the fact Was not publicly known until Saturday afternoon. It is appears that between 2 and 3 o'clock Friday morning Mr. Beecher, who has been living recently With his son, Col. Henry Beecher, at the corner of Hicks and Clark streets, Brooklyn, awakened his wife and complained of feeling ill. She arose to get him a drink of something, but before she could do so he commenced vomiting, It wasnot thought, however, that the attack was at all serious, but when called to breakfast. Mr. Beecher did not an- Swer, and It was then found that he was speech- less, Dr. Searle, the family physician, was quickly summoned, and ronounced Mr, Beecher ‘quite iu, but in no tmamediate ._He was worse, how- ever, on Saturday, and Dr. Hammond was called in consultation, ahd the members of his famtly in ,the west and elsewhere were summoned. Before ‘noon Saturday Mr. Beecher became unconscious ce reinained in that condition. hope of his recovery was abandoned yesterday. WILL PROBABLY NEVER REGAIN CONSCIOUSNESS. Dr. Searle issued the following bulletin last night: “The condition of Mr. Beecher has not materially changed during the day. He is 10 a deeply comotose state, from which he cannot be roused, and from which he will never probably rally. He lies like one in 7 sleep, and gives ho indications of pain or uneasiness. His pulse varies from 90 to 100. Atone time for several hours it intermitted two or three beatsin each minute, but this evening it hasremained quite reg- ‘ular an@ quite hard and Tull. The temperature has ranged from 100 to 1003s, and at present stands at 200%. ‘The respirations number about thirty to the minute. The body and extremities are equally Warm. The face 1s flushed and has a somewhat livid hue. He is unable to speak or swallow any- thing except small quantities of quid, which must be cautiously adininistered to prevent chok- ing. During the day he has been unaer the con- stant supervision of his physicians, who remain With hima to-night, Dr. W. T. Hellwerth and Dr. W. A. Hammond, of New York city, have each Visited him oncé today. All three medical ad- visers are in full and entireaccord as tothe nature and location of the disease, its present status, the Temedial measures to be employed, and as to the Prognosis of the case. Itis their pinion that the story of to day confirms the opinions they have entertained from the beginning, that recovery 18 nov tobe hoped for; that though the effusion of blood into the brain is now stopped, a fresh hemorrhage may at any time occur and’ speedily end life; that is not likely to happen, so far as present indications are to be t ahd should it eur his life may be spared’ yet, several days. How long, depends on his endurance and Strength of constitution, Drs. Hammond and Heliwerth will not return for consultation unless sent for, as they have expressed themselves as deeming it unnecessary. No one except Mrs. Beecher and her children ts allowed to visit his People Deyan to gather in the neighborhood, of Mr. Beecher’s house before daylight yesterday morning and all day the throngs almost made the strects linpassable. On every hand expressions of the deepest sorrow over Mr. Beecher's condition. Were heard, Yesterday was communion day in Plymouth chureh, Brooklyn, and a largegathering of the congregation attended the services. Kev. Mr. Halliday conducted the morning services, opening with a prayer besceching the Aimighty to strengthen the pastor, Mr. Beecher, in his serious illness, Communion followed, during which mes- sages concernidg Mr. Beecher's condition were Tead,and caused tears to flow in abundance amoi the congregation. Other prayers were offe for Mr. Beecher.
