Several fainting fits followed, and more difficulty was experienced in -breathing. The respirations were quick and hard, to the number of fifty-three to the minute. IIer pulse was over 80, and her tem- perature 98. A little warm milk and weak coffee have been fed to the patient since sho awakened, and at last reports she seemed stronger, but was still too weak to speak to any extent. Pitcher's Castorla. NEWS NOTES. A curious crop is a harvest cf 4,000 sponges. It was obtained by an Austrian savant as the re- sult of an experiment of literally sowing small parts of living sponges in a soil level able to their production. Jonathan Alexander, the old Waterloo pensioner who died in Edinburgh a week or two ago, was one of the guards of the fal- len Emperor in St. Helena, and used to tell a curious story of 1Napoloon's heart having been nearly carried off by a rat atter the post-mortem examination.

During the snooze the . ig . - -- le choice m else[ waq h.,httid up•. on by a rat, which was in the act of carrying it off when the doctor awoke and recovered the stolen treasure. The New York Daily Graph's says: A friend whoknowsGeneral Harrison and his family well says that the general begins the day on his knees. Just after breakfast every morning, no matter what his engagements are, he holds a morning service in his library— first reading a chapter from the Bible, then engaging in . prayer. In the hurricane ofoxcitement fol. lowing the Chicago convention the general said to a friend and visitor at his house that this had been a life-long custom with him, to which he would adhere no matter what might -bo his lot in life. The economical reforms in the Queen's household, to which it is said the Prince of Wales has been decidedly opposed, posed, have revealed couple of uei facts "The'CUS= tom has been to present Epiphany offeri1 gs of gold, frankincense, and. my rrh on behalf of the sove- reign at the altar of the Chapel Royal ofSt. James's Palace. The offering was supposed to -consist of 50 sovereigns, until Prince Al- bert, who had a keen scent for abuses, ono° went to the vestry before the services and opened the box, where he found 10 shillings only. It was explained that LLan old habit gave the rest of the money to officials as perquisites. Another queer custom appropriat- ed at the beginning of each year, 52 -bottles of royal Maderia where- by the officiating clergy at St. James' ,were supposed to regale themselves on -Sunday after morn- ing service. ' Yet none of the .clef gy had ever seen a drop of it. George Heide,, a young farmer residing about nine miles below Evansville, Ind., lost his life Fri- day night in a singular manner. Adjoining his farm •was that of Wm. Tompkins, a negro, who for, several day's past has been engag- ed in clearing up a piece of new ground, cutting away the timber and preparing for spring. Know- ing him to be very superstitious, ,Heidel resolved upon a practical joke, and Friday night, about 7 o'clock, stationed himself at a point in the'road where lie knew the negro would pass, covering, himself with a white, ghostly garment, and secreting himself for his victim. In a short time Tompkins came along with an axe on his shoulder and Hcidel rushed from his covert, making strange motions from beneath the sheet. The negro in his fright struck out with the axe, splitting the head. o(,. the unfortunate joker squarely open to the shoulders' and, of course, killing him instantly. Tompkins then rushed . away, never thinking he had killed a human being. I•To effort has been made to arrest him,' as the act was clone in a moment of' great fright. Tho municipal elections in Paris have been attended by contre- temps unlooked for by even the most prescient elector. In the first place, the return of the Mayor and Reeves was protest- ed, on the ground that their nominator was not a British sub- ject. The protestors, however, were not sure of their ease, and rather than make,a deposit and' face the courts thelet the elec- tion go by default, • While the matter was under consideration it created considerable excitement Now another case has, arisen, the seat of Mr Schofield, of King's Ward,, has beep declared vacant by reason of his non property qualification. Although the gen- tleman is manager, and principal stockholder in the extensive wool- en factory owned by the Paris Manufacturing Company, it seems his interest in its business does scot count manic ipally, and his other assessment being a few dollars short of the prescibod,atnount,this newly -elected member of the Town Council has to forego hie honors Mr Schofield is an active, intellig- eniland enterprising citizen,whose loss to the Board is keenly regret- ted. The possible anomalies antler the municipal law, in respect of property qualification, aro strik- ingly exemplifled in alias case.
