Empress Frederick.
SAID TO HA, YU ft AO 17 CANCERS.
London, Sept. 7.
1 Clem'nt Scott, in his paper, the Free [ Lance, gives prominence to the following: “The true story of Empress Frederick’s death has not hsc-n published. I learn from the be-t sources tout the uffiorsunate and truly heroic lady suffered tha greatest agony before her demise, she was atll’cted with no less.than seventeen cancers. Her piteous cries ror days b.-forc her last moments were heard all around the castle which Her .Majesty had erected in memory of her beloved husband, and it was only by means of powerful narcotics that our Princess Royal, second only to Queen Victoria in greatness and goodness, obtained relief. Thu statement that she passed away peacefully is true in a sense, for the Empress really died insensible to the cares of this world.
