THE QUEEN OF SPAIN.
A telegraphic dispatch, dated Madrid, in the after-
noon of the 3d, states that her Majesty was going on
very favourably ; the local inflammation naturally
attendant on the wound and the fever had abated.
Wben her Majesty received the wound, which was
inflicted on her side with a poniard, and not with a
pistol, as at first stated, she was proceeding to the
Church of Atocha, surrounded by her Court. The
assassin, who is a priest, has been arrested.

DEPARTURE OF FRENCH AND HUN-
GARIAN REFUGEES FOR AMERICA.
A third and la“ American liner left the London
Docks this morning for America, with about eighty
French and Hungarian refugees, their wives and chil-
dren (most of whom have been provided with a regular
outfit for the.occasion), who are to be conveyed free of
expense.
It appears that for the last few months the rapid in-
crease of refugees at the re-unions of the French in this
had led the authorities to pay more than or-
dinary attention to their proceedings, and not only their
actions, but their names and localities were knovra to the
Government.
A few weeks back the members of a French club in
the neighbourhood of Rathbone-place, received, through
the agency of one of their own members (who bad long
been looked on with suspicion), the offer of a free
pessyge, clothes, food, and 41. each on their lauding on
the shores of America, a.. the same time being informed
that one body of upwards of 100 men had already left
the English Ctlannel. The offer was almost unani-
mously aceepted, and to the surprise of all present,
papers were given to them, in most instances filled up
with their names, to go immediately to the outfitters for
the clothes required.
So earnest do the promoters of this affair appears that
parties who had left their residences were sought after,
and,
at the eleventh hour, conveyed by cab to the ves-
sel, and furnished with every comfort free of expense.
The vessel is fitted up with every convenience, and is
said to possess far more comfort than ordinary emigrant
ps.
The emigrants, most of whom were on board yester-
d',#y, are lett to surmise the source from whence the
