Queen Vict0ria's Health.

Queen Victoria's Health.
HER CONDITION CONSIDERED UNsAFE-FEARs
THAT SHE WILL SOON BECOME A CONFIRMED
INVALID.
TBy cable to the Dispatch.l
Boston. June "a cable dispatch from
the Her0ld'S London bureau gives the state
ment Of correspondent who made it his
business TO interview "a well-known and
influential member OF the inner court
circle" in relation TO the Queens
health. He was informed that severe
dropsical symptoms had set in, and that
the Queens condition was considered so
unsafe that her doctors all protested against
her present journey to Scotland. The
only thing that caused them to assent to
her going was the fact that the inability OF
her Majesty TO get about since the hurt OF
her leg has mnimized her outdoor eXer-
else. This has been most sadly missed,
but it is thought that the fresh air OF
Balmoral will tot great degree make up for
it. The immediate result OF this cessation OF
outdoor lie has been fit after tit OF serious
depression. Melancholia has frightened
the doctors, and, added to internal NOR
bidity OF the system. is causing all who
know to anticipate at no yely distant date
at least a fear OF the Queen being confined,
a confirmed invalid, to her own bed.
