GREAT G 11111481( R•ncrron.—A petition from
three electors of the borough of Great Grimsby against the
return of Mr. Chapman, alleging bribery, treating, and
undue influence, is printed among the parliamentary papery
ignited this morning.
The Journal de rOist states that the performance
of Y. About's Gateau. at ComaZigne, two sights since,
gave rim to a scene suck se had never been witnessed in
that usually quiet town. As soon as the curtain rose, part
of the audience in the bozos began to hiss most vehemently,
but the occupants in the pit, taking the other side, ap-
plauded with equal ardour, and threw oranges, potatoes,
and even sous at the malcontents. The intervention of
some gendarmes, however, at last restored order, and the
piece was played to the ad without further disturbance.
The Minister of State and the Countess Walewska
(says Go/opia,ii) gave a most brilliant fancy ball two nights
back. The dresses were of extraordinary magnificence,
and all the ornamentation of the rooms remarkable for
elegiacs and good taste. The Emperor and Empress were
present in domino. The Prioress Anna MUM wore pOw•
der and a court dress of the but century ; the Countess de
Pessigey appeared as Snowy Night; the Pence's Troubetskoi
Peon-d'Aws; Mme. de Lutheroth was covered with dia-
monds ; and the Count de l)emidoff wore the dross of •
Tanked's., having in his calque the splendid diamond
which bean the male of his family. The Countess Ws-
lewska, as • foreteller of the future, did the honours of
the night in the neat attractive manner.
A beautiful window of stained glass has just been
placed in the pariah church, Lilleshall (Newport, Stafford.
shire), by the vicar and other inhabitanta, is memory of the
late Duke of Sutherland. The won* "To the memory of
George Granville, Duke and Earl of Sutherland," are la.
serial as a legend in the glass, but it is intended shortly to
place the following inscription eograved oa stone in the wall
usderoesth the window :—" To the memory of George
Granville Sutherland Lorain Gower, E.G.' second Duke
and twentieth Earl Sutherland, who died at Trentham
Hall, February 1.11, Veil, aged 74 yearn. This window, re.
prementing the blessedness in Christ of the poor io
the pure in heart, the meek, the merciful, the patient
mourner, and the earnest seeker, is placed here by the vicar,
cauchwarditua, and other inhabitants of Lilleahall, in token
that the love and esteem which the generous landlord and
the faithful friend won from all classes while living have
followed him to the grave."

SaGINO Visions.—Dr. Kidd, of Sackville-street,
Piccadilly, writes to the Monsiny Post :—" The marvellous
story in your journal of the vision witnessed by the poor
child, Bernadette rhiuhirous, in the Pyrenees, has one or
two pecoliaritire which characteria nearly all those singular
phenomena. The poison who sees the vision is always a
weak, sickly girl, and the vision Balt is evidently 'sub-
jective' it the girl's sen•nrinin, for oo one else can nee it.
I am inclined to believe the story, hot would make • small
bet that the girl has tubercles in her brain. We see almost
every day persons who see similar visions under the effect of
chloroform. !gave chloroform some weeks ago to a clerical
gentleman, a schoolmaster, and be bad for several dam the
most planing and vivid recollection of having spent 10 years
iii the other world in a charming personal colloquy with the
poet Homer. He could tell the lines and book in Homer
that they talked about, and described the appearance of
the blind old man of Scio ; and all this time he bad only
undergone • small, painless, but very uopoetic• surgical
operation. Patients in hundreds talk of chloroform
sleep as a long dream of railway tunnels and country
scenery, grottoes, and storm. ; but the wonderful thing
seems to be that au insensibility of one or two minutes will
suffice for the mind under chloroform to form • perfect
vision spreading distinctly over ten or a donee years. If
this peasant girl had tubercles in her brain exactly the same
thin, may occur. The rushing wind and the grotto, the
lady dressed in white, he., are precisely the images that the
brain forms when slightly or transiently disordered ; even
diaeoesi heart, by disturbing the circulation in the brain, or
such a mischievous Ariel as flying gout, have been shows by
Brieore du Rommel:it to produce hallucinations of the most
incredible kind, far outdoing the scenes im Bulwer Lytton's
'Strange Story,' or even those which the Bishop of Tarbes'
has described."
