The ' Liberte,' a Bonapartist journal, copies without contradiction a report that negotiations are being made for the marriage of the Prince Imperial to the daughter of the Grand Duchess Maria of Russia, by her morganatic husband, Comte Stroganoff. The first husband of the Grand Duchess Maria was Maximilian Napoleon, Duke of Leuchtenberg and the Prince of Eichstadt. Captain Boynton, attired in his life-preserving costume, crossed Dublin ßay from Howth Head to Dalkey Island, a distance of nearly nine miles, in two hours and fifty minutes. He lay on his back, and used a canoe paddle to propel himself, feet forward. He fired off rockets and emoked cigars while in the water.
