An influential deputation of Australian colonists
waited upon Mr Cardwell at the Colonial-office
yesterday, to urge the stoppage of the transportation of
convicts to Western Australia. The deputation pointed
out that the colonies were much opposed to convicts being
sent out to them, and it was added that if the Government
peristed in this step a very angry feeling would be aroused.
Mr Card well said that no credit was given to the Govern-
ment for what had been done in lessening the evils of which
the colonists had complained. Instead of thanks the Go-
vernment were now threatened with agitation. He pro-
mised the deputation that their repregentations should be
most carefully considered, but he could give no pledge as
to the action of the Government.

of a Scheoltnaster," in The Sun of Monday, one of the
extracts was accidentally transposed, as must have been
very evident to the reader.—ln line H of the letter (signed
"Uncommon Sense") on tieeruits for the Army, instead of
"bat no well-conducted man," read "for no well-conducted
man."

as it appears it was written on the eve of that battle, all
unconscious of that great event, but breathes a prayer as
appropriate as if it had been penned in prophetic power of
insight.

SLCEIFICES TO THE CRINOLINE MOLOCH.
—Yesterday a young woman named Emily Groves,
20 years of age, an imbecile, residing in the care of Mrs
Aohton, at Carter-street, Walworth-road, went into the
kitchen, where her crinoline-expanded dress caught tire by
sweeping against the bars of the grate, and in a moment the
unfortunate creature was enveloped in flames. It was found
almost impossible to extinguish them before they had con-
sumed all that was inflammable, and when at last they were
overcome by the assistance of two police officers, the young
woman was fount? to be so fearfully burnt that no hopes of
her recovery are entertained. She lies in St. Tbomas's
Hospital, where Mrs Ashton is also under treatment, in
encluovatipg to save her charge.
