theatre of the Portetikint-Ilartin, whore be appears
with his animals in the representation of the Bide an
Bois. One of the lionesses had produced four young
ones during the day ; and the lions in the same cage
devoured three of them ; the mother hid the fourth
behind her. The animal was dull and melancholy all
day, but it went through the performance' as usual in
the evening. As Batty was leaving the cage he per.
oeived the young lion, and fearing that It might meet
the fate of others he stopped to take it away. At that
moment the lioness sprang on him, bit him severely in
the right thigh, and, with • blow of her paw, tore •
piece of flesh from his book, but with these injuries he
succeeded in escaping from the cage. The incident
caused immense emotion among the audience; many
women fainted; and a great number of tikes pressot
left the theatre, the curtain baring dropped. Batty
subeequently presented himself at the footlights, and
was much applauded ; his injuries, although serious, are
not likely to prove dangerous.

FRANCS AND PROWL& : Is IT Plane ret Wee.—
Great uneasiness prevails as to the relations subsisting
between France and Prussia, and war appears to be
looming in the distance. A few days ago the French
Government sent in the ordinary course confidential
instructions to its Charge d'Affaires at Berlin on what
the Copurititiossad calls "the various pending queations"
between tLe two Governments, and in an interview
between the French Charge d'Affsiree (in M. Benoe-
detti'a absence) and the Prussian Under-Searstary (in
M. de Bismarck's ablenoe, the former appears to have
touched upon the questions pending between Prussia
and Denmark in a manner that elicited some expression
of surprise from the letter: to which the French
