On the Igth ult., on boar l the steam-ship Royal Adelaide
while on her passage from Leith to London, Mrs. CURRIE, of
female twins. Whilst between Flamborough.head and the
Dudgeon Mrs. Currie was suddenly taken ill. Fortunately
there happened to be a medical gentleman amorn: the pas-
sengers, who, on being informed of Mrs. Currie's indisposition,
instantly tendered his assistance, and, in less than half-an-hour
afterwards. communicated the result of his labours, Mrs. Cur-
rie's safe delivery of female twins. Mrs. Currie was proceeding
from Leith to London to join her husband, who is a respectable
tradesman. He was_wa tint; his wife's arrival at St. Katherine's
wharf, hut, not observing her among the passengers on deck,
he made inquiries of the steward whether she were on board.
He received an answer in the affirmative, and, moreover, that
she h d brought to bins two presents, but that neither Mrs.
Currie nor they cou!d be handed over for at least a day. He
looked unutterable things. and exclaimed, " Has she been
seized with smuggled whiskey?" " No. not exactly so," replied
the steward, "but you'd better come down and see " The hus-
band dint so, and found his better-half with two beautiful babes
lyi, g beside her. His surprise may be easily imagined. On
Tuesday of ernoon the mother and infants left the Royal Ade-
laide, where every ,indness and attention was paid them by
Captain Allison and others on board, and were safely conveyed
to Collingbrook, near Windsor. We understand the twins are
to he baptized, respectivey, " Adelaide" and " Allison," the
former being the name of the ship and the latter that of her
commander.
