We regret to learn that the wife of Hon. The Que'en and Royal Family.
-
George Brown is in a yery precarious state
. of health. Shortly after arriving in Scot, -
land she went to a Dentist tohave a Loth
attracted, and during th i operation her
jaw was broken. Since That time pieces
of bones I ave been working through' one -
of her cheeks. Froni a letter received by
a friend from Edinburgh we are sorry to
learn that Mrs. Brown is a seere sufferer,
and that fears have been entertained for
her reessvery.
An attempt wa.smade on Thursday night
to run otf the night express from Buffalo,
when within a. short distance of Port Col-
borne, bv placing an iron rail across- the
track. Fortunately the abstriction was
removed with the loss of part of the cow
catcher only.
Dr. Tupper, of Nova Scotia, is in To-

The opal, beyond (lona the most beauti-
ful of all g,erna, is also the only one which
cannot be imitated. It is impossible to
value it, since the price depands solely,
Upon the play of color. A fine specimen
will fetch a thousand. pounds ; but fifty
times that much has been refiised in the
case of the laenna epal. The hydrophane,
or Mexican opal, loses its beauty when
exposed to water ; and Sir Walter Scott
has alluded to this fact in "Anne of
Geierstein," although, in that romance, he
ascribes it to supernatural agency. Strange
to se*, after the publication of the novel,
the belief that- opals were unlucky obtained
such currency that they quickly went out
of fashion.
—About 150 immigrants, most of them
from the North of Ireland, passed through
Montreal on Thursday, bund for the
county of Huron, Ont., where they intend
to settle.

A Man Cuts a. Boy*s Ears off.
On Saturday evening. 1Sth inst., a
shoemaker named Thomas FIspvisoli,
residing nn Erie street in Stratford, cot
the ears off his apnreni ice. The facts of
the case are as follows :—
Hopwood has lately had reason to sus-
pect an illicit intercouree between his wife

prescribes : to Bee the voting Higlander,

a man was borne out of the ranks faint

concern, turn her Lack upon the review,
and not be content until informed if it
was not a serious accident; to see- the
Queen, Prince and Princess in turn bring-
ing a, blush into Prince Arthur's face by
probable reference to his new plumes,
were little instances that came unsought
before many on Saturday, indicating the
substratum of personal esteem and ad-
miration on which English loyalty is
built.
Mr. Abel Fulsom, of -Zumbrota town-
ship, Minnesota, came home at a late hour
and his wife got up from beg in the second
gtory to admit him. She 4,me down to
the first floor, in the kitchen, and im-
mediately screamed for help ,saying that a
snake was fastened to her foot- and she
could net shake it off. Another woman,
:living in the house, struck a light and -ad-
mitted Mr. Fulsom. By, this time Mrs.
Fulsom had shaken off the snake, which
had stuck to her by its fang,s, so that it was
by violent effort she threw it off. The.
snake was found making its way towards

killed. It was a rattlesnak ofthe prairie,
such as is sometimes called it massassaugar
