anal damnation, " that be had n beton enlisted in
say of her Majesty's regiments," to. The ant enlistment

& strange anomaly Ea the law, the magietrate, who k
compelled to send all such eases to the seeks& whim the
freed la committed epos the army, has the power of dealing
with them summarily, when the pressealka is instituted by
the navel itemise, the latter souse being obviously attended
with last thaw a third of the expense to the country.

She stated that her huttand enlisted on the 15th of

The Poet thus refers, In all the holiness of conspi-
cuous typo, to the health of the Empress Bagful' :—.. The
mahlis will, no doubt, have remarked that the Empress
Beginie has taken but little part in the public festivities
celebrated last week in Paris. Fee this ears of her Majeety's
health there is every reason to believe that there is a
most :setisfaetory cause; and, indeed, it is known that
Queen Victoria wu most anxious and pressing in her kind
advises to the Empress, to observe every precaution on
which so important a inters may depend. We expect con-
fidently that, at no distant date, the official Nowileur, cr-
owding to the etiquette of France, will announce to the
nation the pregnancy of the Empress."

The hasty manner in which, unavoidably, the
great event of the Queen's visit to Paris bee been chronicled
has prevented the record of several minor facts and incl•
dents which, nevertheless, deserve a pleas in all contempo-
rary narratives of an orearrenee so remarkable. For ex-
ample, at St. Germain on Saturday, the Queen visited the
tomb of her ancestor, James 11., and on Sunday again she
went to Metall, in the aftersoos, and there stood beside
the untimely grave of the late Duke of Orleans. At St.
Cloud on Monday, whether by clever premeditation or for-
tunate accident, the Emperor caught sight of a Voltigeur of
the Imperial Guard, who had lost his leg before Sebastopol,
and had otherwise been severely wounded. The still suf-
fering soldier was making his way forward on crutches
when the Emperor advanced to meet him, and, taking off
the Cross of the Legion of Honour which he wore, trans.
(erred it to the poor fellow's breast. All who witnessed the
spectacle womanish affected by it—most of all the decor&
himself.
