ERRATUM.—In the second line of the third Lead-
ing Article, in yesterday's Sun, the word " ex,,)el" is printed,
by mistake, for " dispel."

The Tories give Sir George Murray a dinner yes•
terday evening, at Willis's Room, King-street, St. James's,
" on his introduction," as they said, " to the electors of West-
minster as a candidate-for their suffrages at the next election
of persons to serve in Parliament as representatives of their
it -AY unrepresented city." There was a strong muster of the
Torres, but very few of the Westminster electors, which, con-
sidering the occasion, was rather disheartening. Great ex-
ertions bad been made to get the affair up, but it was a palpa-
ble failure, and the effect on the assembly was evident, for a
duller or more sorry concern could not be conceived. Among
those who were present were the Marquis of Douro, the
Marquis of Salisbury, the Marquis of Chandos, the Earl of
Haddington, Earl Jermyn, M. P.; the Earl of Darlington,
M. P.; Viscount Castlereagh, M. P.; Lord Eliot; Lard San-
don, M.P.; Lord Lowther, M. P.; Lord Hotham, M. P.;
Lord Ashley, M. P.; Lord Wharncliffe; Lord Villiers, M.P.;
Lord Stormont, M. P.; Lord F. Egerton, M. P.; Lord Lof-
tus, &c.
PUNISHMENT OF CRIMINALS IN JAVA.—Cri-
minals who are sentenced to death in the Island of Java,
where the Upas or Ipo grows, are offered a free pardon if they
consent to procure a small boxful of the poison of that tree,
which is exceedingly valuable. The poison flows in a milky
form from it, and no one can approach at that period, as one
drop of the fatal juice falling upon the face or hands would
produce stiffness of every limb, followed by rapid death. The
solitary wretch who returned from this awful expedition
(during Mynheer Foersech's, visit at that Island), described
the tree, which he visited, ai growing on the borders of a ri-
vulet, being of a moderate height, and surrounded by young
ones. The ground around them was of a sandy nature, and
strewed with the rerr4l.3 of human victim. He also clearly
ascertained that no living creature can exist within 15 miles of
the spot. The streams that flow near it yield no fish, and
the birds that fly over it fall to the ground. -7Dr. Millingen's
Curiosities of Medical Experience.

Last night, about half-past ten o'clock, a fire burst
forth from the lower part of the premises occupied by Mr.
Westhrope, coal-merchant, No. 40, Aldermanbury, which is
facing to the back part of St. Alfred's Church. It was first
perceived by one of the private watchmen, who, with the
assistance of several persons, burst open the street-door, and
made an attempt to rush up stairs, but in consequence of the
amazing rapidity of the flames were obliged to retreat. The
various engines speedily arrived, and were instantly got into
operation, there being an abundant supply of water. The
flames communicated to the house of Mr. Ellis, tailor, No. 41,
which received considerable damage before the fire was got
under. It was ascertained that the family left the premises
about half-past ten o'clock to go to one of the theatres, and
the fire is supposed to have been occasioned by the escape of
the gas, which was left burning. By twelve o'clock the fire-
men succeeded in getting the flames entirely under, and all
danger was at an end. The house in question' is nearly
destroyed and all its contents, but whether it is insured in any
of the fire offices could not be ascertained.

Business remains in about the same state—no fur-

little more business has been done in pods for the home
markets, but as w e are yet without the usual orders for the
United States—the workmen generally engaged upon goods
for exportation at this season, are still out of employ.—Leicester

Many notorious convicts have been barristers or at-
torneys at home, but have been transported for forgeries, alter-
ing wills, or the commission of other infamous frauds. These
ruffians, instead of being sent to Norfolk Island, worked in
irons on the roads, or assigned as labourers to settle, are at
once assigned to their brother lawyers in the colony, and gene-
rally to such of these as are remarkably deficient in legal
knowledge or talent of their own. The imported legal scoun-
drels being generally clever, or at least versed in every species
of quirk, manoeuvre, and quibble, whatever attorney is so
lucky as to obtain one of them as an assigned servant, is al-
most sure of gaining much business in what is termed the
" emancipated connection," the convicts and emancipists
having not only a fellow feeling with the lawyer's clerk, but a
pretty strong assurance that the latter will stick at no roguery
to serve a client, particularly if even a trifling douceur be
given to himself. The convict clerks are often entrusted by
their masters with the entire conducting of their bnsiness.
The scoundrels have access to the gaols, in which they make
themselves masters of the cases of the prisoners. They tam-
per with the witnesses. Where hard swearing is required, it
is not difficult in such a place as New South Wales to find
men who will swear to anything. Instances have been known,
while trials have been going on, of convict clerks going out of
court, and making bargains with fellows, perhaps for half a
pint of rum, to give prisoners a character, though these rum
witnesses may never even have seen the prisoners till they be-
held them in the dock.—Mudie's New South Wales.
TIIE INFLUENZA.—From letters which have been
recently received, it appears that this epidemic, which, under
various .titles, was so prevOent some few months back through-
out Europe, made its appearance at the Cape and in Now
South Wales at the same time that it first showed itself on the
shores of the Baltic and in the northern parts of Scotland, evi-
dently proving the universality of the atmospheric cause which
produced it.
On Saturday se'nnight a child was carried to the
church-gates, at Wetter!, Norfolk, attended by the bereaved
parents, with a view of depositing it in the grave. The fu-
neral procession arrived at four o'clock, the appointed hour,
but no Clergyman appeared to perform the last sad office ;
after they bad waited about an hour, the Rev. Gentleman
came, not to perform the usual ceremony, but to add affliction
,to the afflicted by refusing to bury the corpse. The child,
alas had not been baptised at the church, but at the Dis-
senting chapel, which was cohsidered by his reverence as no
baptism. Eventually a neighbouring Clergyman appeared
and read the service. We give this brief statement of facts
without eotnment. Had the Curate continued absolutely to
refuse reading the service, other steps would have been taken
in the affair, by the friends of religious liberty. The Curate
of Watton, we understand, is the Rev. Stephen Jackson,
eldest son of the proprietor of the Ipswich Journal; the
editor of which paper, a few weeks since,, remarked, " the
Dissenteri mast be crushed."—Suffolk Chronicle.
