VISIT OF THE PRINCE AND PRINCESS OF
ALES TO HALIFAX —Yesterday morning, at a
meeting in committee of the Halifax Town Council, his
'Worship the Mayor, Mr John Crossley, stated that his
Royal Highness the Prince of Wales had been pleased to
1,841% hi intention of being present at the opening of the
'44lifax new Town-hall. It was further stated that on the
*occasion of the visit the Prince would be accompanied by
her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales. The council in
cornmittee then proceeded to make arrangements for the
Royal visit. The Prince and Princess will, we believe, be
the guests of his Worship, the Mayor, at Manor-heath,
near Halifax. The precise day of the visit is not yet fixed,
but it will be in the last week of July of the present year.
The new Town-hall which his Royal Highness will open
has been built from designs by the late Sir Charles Barry,
and is, we understand, Sir Charles Barry's last public un-
dertaking.

VISIT OF THE PRINCE AND PRINCESS OF
-WALES To SCOTLAND.—The Prince and Princess of
Wales (says the Aberdeen. Journal) are expected at Aber.
geldie Castle about the end of July ; and the Queen, after
Vending some time in Germany, will probably return to
lialmoral about a month later.

LEAPING OUT OF A TRAIN.-0a Monday after-
boon a passenger, who had taken a ticket at Bath-
gate by the 5 p.m. train for Ratho, intending to re-book
there for Glasgow by the train which leaves Edinburgh at
6 15 p.m., neglected, through sleep or inadvertence, to quit
the train on its arrival at Ratho, and, on discovering his
Illiatztke, when the train had reached within half a mile of
n.
—°gAr station, he hastily opened the door of the compart-
•
'lt of which he was then the sole occupant, and leaped
While the train was running at a great speed. The part
6°'7 the line at which he leaped is bounded by a stone wall,
against which he was thrown with much force, andh
at
guard having reported what had occurred on arrivalhie
G°lgar, the engine was immediately detached and sent back
to the scene of the accident. The unfortunate man was
thus brought speedily into Edinburgh, and removed to the
Royal Infirmary, where his injuries were found to be of so
serious a character as to place his life in considerable
danger, and to render it doubtful if one of his legs may not
suffer amputation. We understand he is inspector of a
Couracoal mi
nt.ne in the neighbourhood of Slamannan.—Edinburgh

LONDON AND NORTH "WESTERN RAILWAY.—
Yesterday morning a Wherncliffe
company was held at the Euston-s meeting of thise
station, for the
quar
purpose of considering a bill for authorising a lease of the
undertaking of the company of proprietors of the Lancaster
Canal Navigation to the London and North Western Rail-
way Company, and for other purposes—Mr. Dean in the
chair. The chairman said he had to apologise to those
present for the trouble given them in coming to the meeting,
but, it was a matter which did not depend upon the directors
or upon the secretary of the company. The bill had refer-
ence to the Lan ;aster and Carlisle matters. The preamble
had been proved, but the clauses had not yet been settled,
therefore he proposed that the meeting be adjourned until
June 18th. A resolution in accordance with the chairman's
suggestion was oarried, and the proceedings terminated.

ASSAULT ON AN ENGLISHWOMAN IN PARIB.—A
curious case was tried on Wednesday in Paris by
a
law, which does away with the delays which seem inherentnew
to law throughout the world, and decrees that those taken
in flagrante delicto be tried immediately. This crime was
committed on the night of the 7th, and was judged to, day.
A young English lady, not knowing one word of French,
arrived by the train from Havre. She had a written ad-
dress, "Mrs. Brown, Rue des Grands Augustins," which
she handed to the driver of a cab which she hailed at the
station. The coachman, instead of driving towards the
place indicated, took a directly opposite course, and, having
arrived at the Parc Monceaux—a district just now suffer-
ing severely from the chronic attack of improvement which
rages throughout Paris—jumped down, opened the door,
andho brutally assaulted the young Englishwoman. She,
however, made an effective resistance, and escaped from
the ruffian who was subsequently arrested, and was fined
16t, and sentenced to two years' imprisonment. —Paris
