V _ flat \9t\ Ltj&Ai. o- THE CAUSE OF NAPOLEON’S DEATH. As all matters rela.ting to Napoleon excite great interest, the investigations of Professor Keith, of St. Bartholomewr’s Hospital, into the cause of bis death will arouse attention. The Professor finds evidence to show that Napoleon suffered both from tropical fever and canoer. It was alleged be died from fever through being kept at St. Helena, but if he had been taten from the island the cancer would have proved fatal. To those who still insist on discussing the question of Napoleon’s treatment in a contro- versial spirit, the evidence may seem incon- elusive, but it will doubtless satisfy the majority ' of people.'^JUJ<(<^,
