Geographic dispatches from Halifax of the

the steamship Africa, with three days later
dates from Europe.
Among the reported items Of news, we find
that "the Emperor is reported to have died

at l O'Clock in the morning, of apoplexy, as is
supposed, after an attack Of influenza. The
event had caused great excitement 1t was
surmised that he had been assass;nated."
Lord Clarendon, in the House of Lords, and
Lord Palmerston, in the House Of Commons,
had announced the fact in Parliament.
We would remark that the news is not gen
orally credited, and in our judgement needs
confirmation. as, aIr .aI fiia1 t.}.H
