Queen YictorIa's Ill.HeaIth.

LONDON, May 5.-Society was still
further chagrined to-day by royal an.
nouncement concerning John Brown, de.
ceased. 1t was officially made known
that her Majesty had called consulta
ton of her physicians for the purpose OF
ascertaining whether or not she would
be far enough recovered from the injury
abe sustained on April by falling VIC.
lently on her knee as she was descending
the palace steps, when on her way TO
take her daily drive, to personally attend
the uncovering of the cairn che has or
dered to be erected on the grounds at
Ralmora! TO memory of her dead pillie.
The cairn is to be completed by the 1st
of June, and the Queen has resolved to
have it uncovered with imposing cere-
monies. The physicians gave great
pleasure to her Majesty by stating that
IT no unforeseen relapse should occur
the rapid progress she is now making to.
ward complete recovery warranted the
assurance that she could, without risk,
attend in person the ceremony. There.
upon the British world was officially no.
tilted that her Majesty would go to Bal.
moral in June and personally dedicate
the cairn. 1t is difficult to describe the
feelings with which such intelligence
about the Queen is received by the Eng.
lish people. The Queens commissioners
at Balmoral has been appointed executor
for John Browns estate, which exceeds
100000.
Her Hisjssty is very far from being
fully recovered from her fall. Many
facts 60 to show that che herself looks
upon her condition as such as makes the
immediate presence of all the royal
children very desirable at least Every
excuse is made to the public for any
royal concern shown upon this subject.
The Prince of Wales desired to attend
the coronation of the Gar. The
Queen would not listen to it.
Prince Alfred, Duke of Edingburgh,
did secure the royal consent, and q pro.
position to allow sum of money with
which to suitably defray the expenses Of
himself and suite was at once submitted
to the House of Commons. Today an
opposition to the grant was started By a
body of members, who, although Redi-
Gals, are suspected of being act1ated by
the known wishes of her Majesty. They
asssEt tha. ihsy will strongly oppose any
grant exceeding $4,000. Every one
knows that more than that sum will be
asked, and there can be but little doubt
that the real motive of the threatened
opposition is not any object to the ex.
pense, but g desire to aid her Majesty in
preventing her son from leaving England
ct what she regards as critical time and
upon what may turn out to be danger.
Gus mission, although even this latter
would not be sufficient to deter British
Prince from going to Russia were it no.
for the precarious condition of the
Queens health. Another fact which
strongly corroborates this view is that
the Princess Louise has been privately
advised to return to England. The off.
cial announcement Of this uses the word
advised" but contains weak attempt
to conceal the urgency of the case by
adding the words "by September at the
farthest," to allay any misgivings that
may be caused in the Dominion by the
calling home of the Princess Louise. 1t
is announced that Prince George of
Wales, son Of the Prince of Wales, will
begin at once to serve his time as mid
shipman on board her Majesty's man. of.
war Canada at the North American sta
tion.
The Queen will return to Windsor
next Tuesday. She is still unable to
walk and cannot stand without support,
and even supported can stand but q lii.
