_Remarkable Prophecy._--The following prediction of St. Cæsario, Bishop of Arles, in the year 542, may not be considered void of interest at the present moment. It is taken from a book, entitled _Liber Mirabilis_, printed in Gothic characters, and deposited in the Royal Library, Paris:-- "The administration of the kingdom, France, will be so blended, that they shall leave it without defenders. The hand of God shall extend itself over them, and over all rich; all the nobles shall be deprived of their estates and dignity; a division shall spring up in the church of God, and there shall be two husbands, the one true, and the other adulterous. The legitimate husband shall be put to flight; there shall be great carnage, and as great a profusion of blood as in the day of the Gentiles. The universal church and the whole world shall deplore the ruin and destruction of a most celebrated city, the capital and mistress of France. The altars of the temple shall be destroyed, the holy virgins outraged shall fly from their seats, and the whole church shall be stripped of her temporal gods; but at length the black eagle and the lion shall appear hovering from far countries. Misery to thee, O city of philosophy! thou shalt be subjected! A captive humbled even to confusion, shall at last receive his crown, and destroy the children of Brutus." ALPHA. _The Ball that killed Nelson_ (Vol. iv., p. 174.).-- "The musket-ball that killed Nelson is now in the possession of the Rev. F. W. Baker, of Bathwick, near Bath. A considerable portion of the gold lace, pad, and silk cord of the epaulette, with a piece of coat, were found attached to it. The gold lace was as firmly fixed as if it had been inserted into the metal while in a state of fusion. The ball, together with the lace, &c., was mounted in crystal and silver, and presented by Captain Hardy to the late Sir William Beattie, the surgeon of the Victory." I have extracted this from the _Illustrated London News_, First Number. If this relic be now in the possession of Prince Albert, I presume it became his by purchase or presentation from the above-named gentleman.
