THE PRINCESS LOUISE.

A late number of the “ Illustrated Canadian News,” speaking of the departure of the Princess Ijouise from Canada, says there were reasons, at the time of the accident, for concealing the extent of the injury as much as possible; but now the fact is coming out. We all hoped and believed that she had recovered from the consequences of the accident, but in spite of all care it seems they were too grave for that. The official announcement is silent as to the length of the proposed absence of Her Boyal Highness from Canada, but this is a very natural inquiry in the minds of the people. The fact we believe is that no time can be stated, and it may happen that if the Princess does not recover very much from the nervousness that has so greatly affected her she will scarcely be able to face another winter voyage. It is, however, to be greatly hoped that she may be able. All the announced declarations of Her Boyal Highness have gone to show that she is animated by the most kindly feeling for the people of Canada, and that she has a profound belief in their great destiny. It seems almost trite to say that as she leaves our shores she will carry with her the deepest feelings of attachment and the love of all. Her coming among us marked a new era, and it is sad that the promise which it gave should have been so early overshadowed by clouds of the nature of those which now cause the departure—let us hope the temporary departure —of Her Boyal Highness.
