At a grand ball recently given by the Duke or Roxburgh at Floors Castle, a curiosity, in the shape of an enormous game pie, wa* exhibited, and it is presumed partaken of by the assembled guests. It contained no fewer than 120 head of game, and weighed about 100 lbs. This would be indeed a “dainty j duh to set before a king.” A dreadful kerosene accident happened at fourth Yarra, causing the death of Mrs Brown, who lived in Osbourne street. While incautiously pouring some kerosene on the fire to make it burn brighter, the can exploded, and her dress was instantly in flames. She was fearfully burned, and died seven hours afterwards. 7he greater part «f her body was completely charred. Late Advertisement. PERMANENT BUILDING SOCIETY OF OTAGO.
