The AurorsY OF Mr.. McGEE.---We find
in the Montreal Minerve the following
particulars Of the autopsy of the late Mr..
McGee. assss ..s.e.r-
The doctors observed that the Uranium
was very thin, almost transparent. A
thin, bony envelope is the indication Of a
superior mind; and the thinner it is, tie
stronger is the talent. Such were the
heads of Sir L. H. Lafontaine, and Of the
Hon. A. N. NORM.
The brain. of Mr.. McGee weighed SO
ounces. The mean weight in man is d
ounces. That of the great Irish orator
O'Connell, weighed 81 ounces. That Of
the lord high chancellor Of England was
534 ounces. Depuytren's brains weighed
So ounces, and Cuvier's 594 ounces. In
Mr.. McGee, the liver and lungs were found
to be sound. There was, however. q large
deposit Of fat around the heart. The
physicians were Of opinion that the de.
ceased might have lived long, rather sur
prising circumstance, when his former
habits and checkered life are taken into
consideration.
The Hon. Mr.. McGee was assassinated
like Plus ks minister, by severing the
carotid artery, which carries blood from
the heart to the brain. 1t lie of sufficient
capacity to bring to the brain as much
blood as all the other arteries to other
parts Of the body. This explains why all
wounds of that organ are mortal. There

Naturalization.
The radical know-nothings throughout
the country are making great ado over
the fact that citizens of foreign birth are
showing q commcndable zeal in perlecting
