middle-aged female, was charged before Mr. Elliott with
the following desperate assault on Catherine Collins, one of
the class of unfortunates.
The complainant, whose head had a bandage over it
with ,the words "London Hospital" marked on it, and
which was stained with blood, said that about 7 o'clock
this morning she was in a public-house in High-street,

pint measure out of which she (complainant) was drinking.
Complainant spoke to her for doing so, upon which she was
struck by the prisoner, and they bad a struggle. She got
complainant in the street, and then knocked her down. She
instantly became insensible, and was taken to the London
Hospital with a severe injury to her head.
She was sent for two months to the House of Correction.

THE KING OF THE BELGIANS.--On Sunday last
Dr. Civiale performed, for the fourth time, an operation for
the stone on King Leopold. This operation, which had
been postponed in consequence of the nervous state of the
august patient, was perfectly successful. In less than three
minutes the able surgeon removed or destroyed two large
fragments of stone, and the terrible pain which the King
had long endured ceased at once, as if by enchantment. He
still remains at Laecken, by way of precaution, although it
is hoped that Dr. Civiale's services will not again be re-
quired.
Messrs. Froom, Brothers, of Change_alley, Corn-
hill, invite tenders for $20,000 of New Brunswick and
Canada Railway Six per Cent. Debenturas in sums
of not less than £lOO. They are part of the issue of
£200,000, which forms a first charge on the property of the
company, and are repayable at par in Jan., 1867, The
• coupons are payable half-yearly in London.
