Florence Nightingale. The subjoined paragraph from the London Times of the 4th inst., will be read with regret:
We regret to learn that there is only the slightest foundation for the report of Miss Nightingale's restoration to health. She is able to remove from one place of residence to another—a very few miles—once a year, but she is scarcely able to leave her bed in the intervals, and quite unable to struggle with the flood of correspondence and applications of all kinds which the report of her partial recovery has brought upon her.
