THE PAVILION AT BRIGHTON.--The purchase Of
the palace and grounds having been completed, Mr. Good,
the surveyor to the Woods and Forests, came down from
town yesterday, and gave up the possession of the late royal
property, new the property of the inhabitants of Brighton,
to Mr. Slight, as representative of the commissioners of the
town, so that we may expect that the grounds will be thrown
open to the public in the course of a very few days.—Brighton
Gazette.

CANINE SAGACITY.—On Saturday last a dog, be-
longing to a gentleman residing in this city, suddenly left
his master's house which he was not in the habit of doing
alone, and found his way to the shop of Mr. Platt, chemist,
where he attracted attention to his necessities by holding out
one of his fore paws. On examination it was found that a
large pin was deeply imbedded in the foot, and this seemed
to have been unquestionably the cause of his visit to Mr.
Platt, who had only a few days before administered to him
dose of medicine ; the dog, of course, imagining that the gen-
tleman who had previously been of so much service to hint
would now kindly act the part of an operator. lie accord-
ingly did so, and after the operation " Bow-wow" wagged,
his thanks and returned home, much to the astonishment el
his owner.- Chester Courant.

entertainment was prepared for the occasion. Mr. Alderman
and Sheriff Lawrence presided, and in reply to the various
complimentary toasts, addresses were made by the American
Minister, the Lord Chief Baron, and other notabilities.
Nearly 200 guests were present, and the entertainment,
which was of the usual magnificent character, passed off with
every possible eclat.
By a letter from a prifrata correspondent, dated at
Constantinople, June sth, we learn that the steamer which
arrived there from the Danube, on the day previous, brought
the children of Kossuth, two boys and a girl-their mother
having made her escape; the children, by the Emperor f
express orders, were sent to their parents. They embarked
with their aunt, Kossuth's sister, amidst the deepest expres
sions of public sympathy. At Orsova, where the influence
of the police ceases, the lady underwent the strictest search,
with a hope probably of discovering some clue to the lost
crown of Hungary.

nants, four non-commissioned officers, with three buglers,
