THE QUEEN OF PRUSSIA AT THE BAT TIE OF JENA.-A few minutes before the attack the. Queen of Prussia, mounted on a supurb charger, appeared on the field of battle, and accompanied by the eliie of the youth of Berlin, rode along the front of the most advanced lines os the Prussian ar- my. The flags, which her own hand had embroidered to stimulate the troops, to- gether with those which had been borne in the armies of Frederick the Great, and which were blackened with gunpowder, were lowered at her approach. Shouts of enthusiasm resoundee through the Prus- sian ranks. The atmosphere was so clear and the two armies were SO close to each other, that the French could plainly discern the costume of the Royal Amazon. Her singular dress was, indeed, the chief cause of the danger she incurred in her flight. On her head was helmet of polished steel, shaded by superb plume. The rest of her, dress consisted of cuirass, glittering with gold and silver, and tunic of silver brocade, reaching to her feet, on which she wore red boots, with gold spurs. When the Prussian army was routed the Queen remained onthe feh, attended by three or four men of her escort, who had defended her. However, asmall party of Hussars, who had fought gloriously du- ring the battle, rushed forward at full gal lop, and with drawn swords dispersed the little groop. Started by this unexpected attack, the horse which her Majesty rode darted of at a furious gallop, and had he not possessed the feelness of stag, the fair Queen would infaIibly have been cap tured by the French Hussars, who were several times very close upon her. The Queen, thus pursued, arrived within sight of the gates of Weimar. vixen a strong de- tacfnIneni of DDTagooII5 was sesii pursuing her at full speed. The commander of the detachment had orders 10 ake the Queen at all risk. But no soonerhad she entered Weimar then the gates were closed, and the Hussars and Dragoons returned dlsap- pointed to the field of battls. Boarrieane's Memoirs.

Late Omissions.

SINGULAR CAsE.-Dr. Reed in his ex- cellent article on Nervous Afiections,makes quotation from one of inc medical trea- Uses of Dr. Cheyne, narrating a case, the accuracy of which is believed to be estab- llshed by an irefragible combination of evidence, of an individual who could appa- rently de dt aay lime he pleased, and hay ing laid considerable time exactly like a corpse was able by an involuntary struggle to resume the exercises Of the various f;!ne- tons Of an animation and intellect But the unnatural and painful exertions which it ! required to assume the semblance of death, produced at last fatal result Death would not be mocked with impunity. But the case IS so singular that We lay 1t before our readers.
 He could die or expire when he pleased and yet by an effort, or somehow, he could come to life again. He insisted so much upon our seeing the trial made that we were at last forced to comply. We all three felt his pulse first; it was distinct though small and thready, and his heart had it's usual beat ing. lie composed himself on his back and lay in a still posture for some time; while held his right hand, Dr. Baynard laid his hand on his heart, and MT. Skrine held clear looking-glass to his mouth. I found his pulse sink gradually ill at lastI could not feel any by the most exact and nice touch. Dr. Baynard could not feel the motion in his heart, nor Mir. Skrine perceive the least sort of breath on the bright mirror he held to his mouth. Then each of Us, by turns, examined his arm, heart and breath but could not, by the incest scrutiny. discover the least symptoms of life in him. We req soned a long tune about the odd appear ance as we'll as we could, and finding he still continued in that condition, we began to conclude that he had indeed carried the experiment too far; and at last were sats- fled that he was actually dead. and we were just ready to leave him. This continued about half an hour. By nne o'clock in the morning, in autumn, as we were going away, we observed some motion about the body, and upon examination found his pulse and the motion of his heart gradually returning he began to breathe and speak softly. We were all astonished to the last degree at this unexpected change, and af- ter some further conversation with him and with ourselves went away fully satisfied as to all the particular of this fact; but moi able to form any rational scheme how to account for it. He afterwards called for his attorney, added a codicil to his will, Sc. aud calmly and conposedly died about 3 or o'clock that evening.
