Narrow escape of Royalty.

--Some of the members of the Royal Family of Sardinia have recently had quite a narrow escape. The Prince of Piedmont, the Count'asta, and the Princess Pia narrowly escaped being buried under a wall which suddenly fell down at Genoa, close to where they were sitting, when the frigate Ducadi Genova was being launched. Two persons were killed on the spot, and eleven others were more or less seriously injured.
