improving progressively since that period, and it is now so far
re-established as to allow her to enjoy the society of her family

Letters from Holland speak of a treaty of
commerce as being likely to be entered into between France
and Russia. It is also added, that the sanction of the King of
the Netherlands was recently given to a Decree which autho-
rizes the opening of a Loan for l i million -of florins to be ap-
propriatedl to the formation of a navigable:canal from Vienna
through Zederic, by. Linge and MerweOe' to Gorcum. The
shares are to be 500 florins each, at 41 per cent.
There can be no doubt that the pacific state of
Europe is highly conducive to the profits of industry. The
French make an annual Exposi of the proceedings of the Na-
tional Bank at Paris. Five years ago the amount paid for dis-
Icounts was above five millions of francs ; since then the amount
has been gradually lessening, and last year the aggragate of
discounts was only about-2 trillions of frahcs.
Sleep chalking and miraculous Escape. —On
Tuesday night week, as Mr. Lockman and his
family, of Crowley's-court, Deritend, were sit-
ting by the fire, about nine o'clock, he thought
he heard something rush against the window-
shutter. Supposing it to be a man in liquor, he
opened the door to ascertain the fact, and. look-
ing up the court, saw at a distance, something
move along in white. lie immedia'tely went up
to it, and, to his great surprise, found it to be
his own son, a boy about nine years old, who
had got out of bed in his sleep, lifted up the sash
of the chamber window, fourteen feet from the
ground, and descended into the court without the
least apparent injury. The account the boy
gives is, that he dreamed that a person, who
lived next door, for whom he had been in the
1 habit of going errands, wanted him to fetch a
pint of ale, and lie was going over to the Leather
Bottle for it. The boy was asleep when he was
brought by his father into the house.—( Liver-
pool Courier.)
