ILLNESS OP Aix. M. BASS, M.P. —We(Staffordshire
Ads., rtra,r) regret to state that Mr. Bruin has been danger-
°wily ill. The box. member, who is at his shooting box,
Glen Tukhan, Grantown, last week fell into the Spey
while phi) ing a large fish, and caught a severe cold, which
he neglected, and unfortunately it turned into acute bron-
chitis. On Sunday night be was seized with a most alarm-
ing fainting attack, which lasted for two hours, and during
which lie was iu a condition of complete collapse and
rigidity. The respected gentleman's condition aroused the
serious apprehemion of those around him, and Mr. A.
Do's, M.P. for Stafford, was summoned by telegram from
Rangemoor to Scotland. Mr. A. Ran on his arrival,
found his father better than he had been led to anticipate;
and we are happy in being enabled to state that he is pro-
gressing rapidly towards recovery.
'iii Emry.Ron. NAPOLEON'S SUDDEN RETURN
FROM VICHY. —The Ma,,rial Diplomatiyar says : "Atinua-
pheric conditions react snore or less on all thermal cures.
one of the first hygienic rules consists in not bathing
during continued ruin. The Emperor left for Vichy with
the hope that serene sunnier days might succeed the rainy
weather with which we has c been afflicted this year. Bat
the wet weather still continued ; and the effect was the
more sensible that the villa intended for his Majesty's
residence was constructed with a view to summer only.
The Emperor having contracted a slight cold, the doctors
counselled him to leave Vichy, seeing that the continua-
tion or the treatment was becoming rather injurious than
beneficial. Such is the si,nple and natural explanation of
the sudden return of the Emperor and the Prince Impe-
rial to Saint-Cloud."
Furl-110Ln LIND AND BRICKMAKING COMPANY.
On Saturday an adjourned meeting of the company was
Irdd at the London Tavern, Mr. J. Hartwell in the chair.

greai of a joint stock company in its commencement, when
it wis founded, the present company is quite successful.
In order to give an idea of the prospects of the company
the directors referred to the state of the works, which were
now progreasirg in the most satisfactory wanner, and
reaLsed fully ail the expectations that were held forth at
the formation of the company. The whole of the com-
pany's operations were completed, and there is every rea-
sonable ground to infer its success. The report was
adopted, awl the proceedings terminated with a vote of
thank' to the chairman.
