CAPITAL STOCK.
Boer Prisoners for Bermuda.

There is considerable excitement
at present in Bermuda over the ex.
pected arrival of LOO Boer prs.
oners.
The British Government has
leased "DarrelPs Island" one of
the largest islands in the sound
and within quarter of a mile OF
Warwick shore, for one year with
the option of relInquishing IT on u
months notice. fuckers Island
has also been inspected, but up to
April "a no dcfni % settlement had
been made in regard to it.
The army officials are, as usual,
reticent and nothing can be learn
ed from them on the subject; but
as the blacksmiths of the town
have been sounded as to their abil-
ity to construct several hundred
yards of IRON fence, very strong,
close, high aud with spike points,
and the plans which one or two
have seen are said to be the out.
line of one of the islands, very
little doubt is entertained as to the
object in view by the government.
Bermudians are not feeling very
comfortable over the matter. The
island is still garrisoned by the
colored regiment, the First West
India, and their behavior is by no
means calculated to inspire the
confidence of the people they are
to guard. 1t is hoped
that very strong force of Eu
soldiers will be sent with
the Beers, or matters, it is feared,
may be as uncomfortable az they
were recently at ST. Helena.

MARY STUARTS LAST APPARITION.

From The London Chronicle.
The frequent mention of the recent restora-

Some twenty years ago the late Countess OF
Caithness who managed 10 combine Spiritual
ism with Catholicism induced the Marquis OF
Hamilton to allow her To pass the night in the
apartments once occupied by Mary Stuart IN
which the murder of RizZiO took place. Ii was a
lovely moonlight night, and the countess. who
was very romantic determined To visit the
chapel. which she did by descending the stair

they assdssinated Queen Marys Italian secre-

which Mary married To Darnley-
Suddenly the apparition of the unfortunate
Queen appeared before her holding her severed
head i'm her hands. and Notwithstanding the in
convenience she must have experienced from
the singular position of her head. gave Lady
Caithness Il lengthy answer To the charges
brought against her The countess shortly
afterward wrote a small book containing the in
formation she received. copy of which she
presented To Queen Victoria, who remarked To
the late Lady Ely that lit very interesting
