She was then removed to the lufirmary, where she expired on Friday. The coroner said that death bad been caused by an accident arising from the absurd practice of wearier crinoline.

A WILD BLAB' ENCLOWI7I3 AT RIMINT'S-PABIL —There are, of coarse, some dinktlithill at. tenclant upon the construction of an enclosure sufficiently large to give ample room to the agile limbs of the feline race, su ffic iently strong so withstood the fiercest assault of the lion, and properly roofed so as to counteract the clanger of a leopard or jaguar climbing over its walls. I cannot but think, however, that it would be quite practicable to construct an enclosure that would comply with all these re quisitions, and at no very extravgant outlay of space or money. The enclosure might be common to all the folios mos, and each species might be allowed to exercise in it in regular rotation. There would be no difficulty in decoying them back to their dens, as • piece of meat would effectually accomplish that design, and allow of the door of communi edition being closed while the animals were engaged upon their food. The interior of the enclosure should be fur- Dished with artificial rockwork and trees, and 1 have often pictured to myself the magnificent sight of a pair of lions or tigers careering round their pleasure-ground, exulting in their strength, or a company of leopards disporting among the branches and displaying their lithe forms in all their spotted beauty.—London Rorie y for March.

MONEY )lARKET.-(THIS D. 11.) Two o'CLocw. A fresh rise of 1 per cent. has taken place to-day in the funds, which remain very strong, with a continued tendency to improvement. This is confirmed by the character of the advice' from Paris. English railway shares and foreign bonds present no alteration of importance, but a great deal of attention con. tinues to be directed to Indian and Brazilian rail way shares, which are rising rapidly. At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Router's telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes opened at 70fr. 15c., being sc. better than yesterday. Consols are officially marked 941 and for money, and 94 and 1 for the ac count. The present quotations are 94 to I for cash, and 941 to for the 10th of April. The official business report is as follows :—Bank Stock shut ; ditto for account, 2341, ex div. ; Three per Cents.

Consols are still quoted 9414 to for money, and 941 to I for the account. We believe the new Turkish loan will be intro duced on au early day next week. The delay in its announcement is understood to arise from the great and laudable care which is being taken with regard to all the details connected with it.
